The helen scarsdale agency had the good fortune of publishing one of those few faulhaber albums --the sleeping mustache from the collective mind of waldron, stapleton, sigtryggur berg sigmarsson, jb haynes, and faulhaber --and the agency has found itself some fifteen years later at the right place and time to extract another album from faulhaber.
