Bound Away AP

Bound Away is a song from CAKE’s most recent album, Showroom of Compassion.The song tells the story of a traveling musician. Written by a band that has spent the better part of the past 20 years touring, it paints a realistic, often unglamorous picture of life on the road.

The AP books are the overages from the main edition.  We made extras to ensure we’d have enough and these are the remaining books.  They are signed and numbered but will have an AP in front of the number.
