Scrapbook
An album
by
Robin Hopper

About the Cover:

The cover photo was taken beneath a birch tree in our front yard, the white border on the photo is from a childhood snapshot.  My husband Bruce did all the photography and graphics for the project.


About the Album:

I've collected my favorite pieces from the first three CD's and put them all together here on one disk plus a handful of new, previously un-recorded pieces.  You won't find any Alaskana on here, just Robin Hopper at her singer/songwriter best (look for the all-Alaskan collection CD in late spring 2002.)  When I found I was a finalist for the 2001 Alaska Public Radio Network's (APRN) Song-of-the-Year Contest I decided it was time to put this project together.  Robin has been a three-time finalist for the APRN Song-of-the-Year Contest (1996, 1998, 2001).  All three of those pieces are included in this collection (A Long Goodbye, '96; Mamma's Kisses, '98; Time Enough to Cry, '01).
