watched a lot of silly TV a week I had the flu .... the title of this song is inspired from an episode of "How I met your mother" ... the rest of the lyrics are a mashup of silly nonsence and deep philosofical poetry .... yeah right :)
This is a more jazzy version of "The Devil drives a Volvo". Got help from my brother on the drums on this recording.
Vocals were recorded in a rented mini cooper south in spain :)
lyrics:
The Devil drives a Volvo
and wears a flannel shirt…
This track is great fun.
Love your voice as always.
Querky lyrics, great drums and pretty guitar on the end.
Yep, feel good factor.
Now, where is that plane ticket!!
Inspired by the french movie titled "The Element Of Crime." This is basically a night in the studio for some musical therapy via studio jam with myself.
This is a composition for Jazz Quartet – Tenor Sax (sorry for the unrealistic stray notes), fretless bass, piano, and drums. All but the drums were preformed on my Fender Mustang + GR-20 retuned on the fly by Fractal Tune Smithy.
The tuning…
Well, it IS!
lyrics for my Italian friends:
We're gonna be there in your wake
mending the seams when they start to break
make you do what you said that you would
and other words that rhyme with good
once so close why let it go, baby…
This was written during the challenge in february and was meant to be the title track. But I never really got time to develop it. I still like it though, so I thought I'd cut it rough, leave it undeveloped, and chuck it out there to see what you…
Inspired by Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Pirsig, all the lyrics are taken from the book and spoken/sung by Peter Gorden. It is an experimental piece.
the zoom H2 is battery operated - or if you wish it can use an adapter. The guitar I used is this one http://chrisvaisvil.com/?p=436 Brad converted. Any noise is from the Marshall amp which seems to have a ground problem - at least in the room its in at the moment. I haven't been listening much because I've been editing a lot of video and it brings my machine to its knees.
From the album LIFE IS HARSH IN THE LAND OF GHOSTS THEME PARK.
And yes, the distortion is [mainly] intentional. If you were an Ancestor, you'd distort too. Trust me.
