Information/Write-up

After recording the album, Barry continued driving taxi and playing in various bands on Vancouver Island. In January 1994, he founded Cosmic Debris Musicians Magazine. Noontide received some airplay from CBC in 1975 and in Belgium in 2001. In the mid-80's, Newman received a call from BMI (now SOCAN) explaining that a song called On A Lifeline... by a "Barry Newman" was used as a soundtrack on an Australian movie. They added that the title of the movie was "It Could Be You" ... !?! Maybe it was him... he didn't hear any more about it. However, the chances of two identically-named songwriters giving identical titles to one of their songs are exceptionally-remote. The album was re-issued on Groovedigger Records
