Second in the Tropical Bird Romance Audio trilogy between 2010’s Bamboo For Two and 2011’s The Garnet Toucan, Make Mine, Macaw is also the rarest. While the other releases had vinyl pressings on Olde English Spelling Bee and Underwater Peoples, Macaw was a tour-only CDr.

The trilogy features some of Clark’s most hypnotic soundscapes, melding exotica, Fourth World music, gamelan and more. It also includes contributions from his Skaters partner James Ferraro, Dolphins Into The Future’s Lieven Martens Moana and Orphan Fairytale.
