2) - Cool is also the name for an extemporary sideproject of Nicholas Corey of Bay City Blues. Cool has released only one album, Seduction

"Cool" is one shot collateral project of Bay City Blues, limited to this album, "Seduction". Recorded and mixed in a week (on August 1998), with a malfunctionant 4 tracks recorder, using a minimal instrumentation (a toy keyboard, some parts of bass and electric guitar, and a few primordial synthesizer, and voicesi), "Seduction" is the joky side-project of Nicholas Corey (voice, instrument), Phillis Nirdlinger (voice, istruments) and Judy Asquith (voices). Among atmospheres of distorted easy listening and exotic feel, the songs are original really for their grungy charm and naivitè.desperately naivite celebration of Do It Yourself philosophy."
