The REV 105 RADIO ARCHIVE - Vol. 1 is a 21 track compilation featuring acoustic performances by both local and national artists. The tracks were recorded in the REV 105 radio studio. In-studio recordings were a regular and unique feature on REV 105. The CD sold in local Twin Cities stores for about $10. All the profits from this album went to support the Minneapolis Crisis Nursery.
The graphics feature simulated rubber-stamp text on the covers, and what looks like bad photo copies of typewritten text in the liner notes. There are even some handwritten corrections. The jewel-case booklet is 8 pages. It's one long strip with 4 pages printed on each side and then folded.

As was true of its predecessor, the various artists album I-10 Chronicles, Vol. 2: One More for the Road uses as its organizing principle (or as its conceit) the concept of a road trip along an interstate highway that runs through the southern regions of the United States, from California to Florida. But like the first volume, this one isn't as strict about geography as it is about musical styles.
The performances share a musical sensibility, a country-folk/rock/blues hybrid that mixes acoustic instruments such as guitar, accordion, and mandolin with aggressive, electric rhythm sections and roughhewn vocals.
