MUTHERPLUCKIN' B March Toward Extinction Album, released 4 September 2022 http://mutherpluckin-b.com This is the sixth Mutherpluckin' B album of video game song covers. It was recorded in Tuna backar and Norby in Uppsala, Sweden, mostly in and around the pandemic period 2019-2022. A few tracks are older (2013-2016) that were kept back solely because I thought they didn't fit in on the last two albums. This record is more laid back and less rock oriented compared to the last couple of efforts, with an unusually big amount of keyboards, including some great contributions by my very talented friend KGS. 1.
