Long in the tooth.

Raindrops’ Reflections

Raindrops’ Reflections is targeted to be Randy’s final full-length recording. It will be in two sections - A & B for
lack of a better designations at this time. A will have 14 selections and B will have 10. The A section will generally
be a ‘normal’ collection of songs, in album format; B will feature somewhat more ‘deviant’ numbers, defined by
topic. This is Randy’s first collection of original songs since 1986, all composed from June 2025 to June 2026.
The songs were written mostly in two locations: the car park/picnic area of The Snowy Owl Inn and Restaurant in Northumberland, England and ArtPark’s picnic area bordering its parking lot in Lewiston, New York. For some
reason, inspirations for both were found in the early morning hours, often perched on a mobility scooter.

The band used in recording will basically be composed of the same musicians that contributed to Last Picts, Bottle of Bread, Raindrops’ Recovery, and Raindrops’ Worldview Etcetera. These will include Joe Roscetti, Jr. - drums and vocals; Ann Schieder - vocals; Sean Taylor - bass (various formats); Christina Andropolis - vocals, fiddle, keyboards, various percussion and other instruments; and Randy Andropolis, the majority of tracks on various instruments and vocals. Hopefully, they’re be some additional help from David Dorrian - guitar, Tony Nastasi - Saxophones and Flute; and Sam Fadel, vocal. Additionally, some of Randy’s former students will offer help: Will Howard - Guitar & Bass and Ben Nicholas - Guitar. Dave St. Onge will again provide engineering, co-production and mastering assistance at Digital Barn (DMS) Studio in Ransomville, New York.
