Road to the 2007 NYC Popfest: Allen Clapp and His Orchestra
Allen Clapp and a cropped out cat.
Allen Clapp is a one man pop song machine. He released a number of singles in the early '90s as Allen Clapp and one fantastic full-length record, finally employing "His Orchestra." The album, One Hundred Percent Chance Of Rain, was released on the Bus Stop Label in 1993 and features some Allen's best work ever, and my favorite song, "Something Strange Happens." Allen Clapp and His Orchestra will be playing the Memorial Day BBQ and show on the last day of the Popfest, May 28th.

Matt,
Not to "rain" on your parade, but 'One Hundred Percent Chance Of Rain' by Allen Clapp and his Orchestra was released on Bus Stop in 1993, not 2000.
yknow, i was really confused by that, cause i knew it was much older than than that but for some reason the tags said 2000, so went with it, and plsu bus stop's website doesnt have dates on their discography, so thanks for clearing that up
I think it may have been re-issued in 2000, but it was originally released in 1993.
hmm, that couldve been the issue... i'll admit, i'm fairly new to allen clapp...
I saw a terrific show in San Francisco w/ Allen Clapp, Crayon and Henry's Dress in '94.
The pre-Tullycraft Crayon and the pre-Aisler's Set Henry's Dress?
yep!
lucky man!
Yeah, that Crayon, Henry's Dress, Allen Clapp show sounds like a dream. A really awesome dream, with lots of ice cream and friendly pandas and the best three bands in the world playing.
Thanks for the coverage, Matt! Keep up the good work.
