Way back in the early 1980's John had this
great idea to produce a tape for joggers. Working with Larry Cansler and a
running physiologist, he put together an awesome workout tape. It contains
warm-up, stretching, jog and cool down suites. The guitarwork is fabulous
and it really is a great listen, regardless of your workout leanings. Our
test runners at the time ALL reported improved performance with less
fatigue. We never asked if that had anything to do with running. John
pitched it to Nike, Coca-Cola, and New Balance as a marketing give-away. There was some
initial interest but it never panned out. John toyed with the idea of releasing The Runner
as a new age instrumental album on Homecoming, but moved on to other projects. Until now . . .
Neon Dreams is very happy to release this lost gem for John
Stewart fans. It is a very different CD for John to release but is a terrific listen
especially if you do any form of workout.
