Damp Nights In Drafty Motels for bassoon and bass (1981) is a piece to be played on the road (possibly in Bulgaria) and reflects on such a trip from both an objective and a subjective standpoint. It was commissoned by Julie Feves and premiered by her and Mel Graves in 1981.

The piece is in five movements:
1. Dawn in the New Land
2. Single Room, No TV
3. The Gig
4. Conversation with a Monument
5. Meanwhile, Above in the Marketplace
