​Have Gun, Will Travel (from the album Voyager Golden EP available on New West Records) (by Danny McCloskey)

In 1977, NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) sent gold records into space aboard Voyager 1 and 2. The collection contained music as well as greetings, images, and sounds reflective of our planet. The music collected stretched from Bach to Chuck Berry. Have Gun, Will Travel have a release. Golden Voyager E.P., that celebrates the event. 

Musically, Golden Voyager has a diverse offering of songs in its six-track span. Scattered throughout melodies is dialogue from the original space flight command center that helps keep the theme in focus. To begin the song roster, HGWT offers “Instructions for Use (Interstellar Overture)”, the initial how-to guide included to explain how to access the information included on the recordings.
The remaining cuts stay true to the storyline by keeping the overall topic as a goal. Indie Rock stop-and-start chord patterns back the story of “Mission to Nowhere” while “Gravity Blues” hammers home its diagnosis with a Rock’n’Roll backbeat. Electric guitar chords signal the entrance into the jangle of “Save the Sound” as a breeze whistles a clarion call for the stripped back Folk Rock of “Into the Distance”. Exiting Golden Voyager E.P. with the opinions and observations of Have Gun, Will Travel, the band offer soft determined strums to voice their declaration march that “Everything Is Made of Stars”.
