Rogers co-produced the album with Don Piper. 'Kaye,' the fifth solo album from Edward Rogers, was released by Zip Records in July, 2015. Inspired and dedicated to the late English singer-songwriter and psychedelic legend Kevin Ayers (a founder member of Soft Machine), 'Kaye' featured 11 Rogers originals and a version of Ayers' 'After The Show.' The album was produced \u0026amp; engineered by Don Piper, recorded live in the studio in three days at Brooklyn Recording, tracked by Andy Taub; mixing was done at Broadway Recording and Saltlands Studio by Piper and Rogers.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eGlass Marbles is Rogers sixth solo album and was released on Zip Records on March 11, 2016. One year's body of work consisting of over 50 songs, was collected and Rogers, along with his producer, Don Piper, selected the best songs, the right recording venues and musicians to fit each of the 18 songs on Glass Marbles.
