    Original CD Of "Love on the Line" in s jewel case box.
    Love on the Line includes "Yellow Datsun", a duet with Dar Williams. "East Longmeadow" looks at suburban life, commuting to work in a station wagon and trying to get back home again. "Paranoid" is an anthem to fear. The title track "Love on the Line" is about a couple that marries during a conference call.

    The cd features studio help from some of the finest musicians in New England including mandolin wiz Kevin Lynch and guitarist Jeff Pevar (of David Crosby's band CPR), Chris Haynes on piano and accordion, Richard Downs on tuba and bass, and many others. “Click and Clack” on NPR’s CarTalk played many of the songs and "Peugeot" was featured on Car Tunes Volume 1: Disrespectful Car Songs.

    Singer-songwriter Peter Lehndorff laces his thoughtful compositions with acerbic wit. The sharpness of his humor is only matched by the crispness of his backing musicians. Together, they paint a wry portrait of modern life with all its absurdity intact. – Editor's Pick, 2006: Download .com

    Imagine John Prine type songs played with a Leo Kottke delivery. Lehndorff’s songs are filled with the kind of wry humor that leaves you by turns, guffawing at life and nodding with recognition. Standouts are Yellow Datsun, featuring Dar Williams, and East Longmeadow, a suburban sendup that builds to a perfect punch-line. Paranoid will leave you saying “me too!” to at least some of the catalog of fear. – Music Matters Magazine

Instrumental. The words "Jiggle the handle" were written above the toilet where I had my design studio.
