hey thanks for the comments, dave. I'm listening to you thinkin' I'm hearing The Band reincarnate. Nice you got the "lo-fi" majesty to follow the call. Recorded it live, with a four track tape deck, never played it again, it was a jam. Still haven't figured out how it all goes.
A frightening thing, to go from being a man to becoming a Lobster-man.
Now Gather around me hearties
For I've got a sad tale to be told
Hoist the colors ye bilge rats
The call rang out, we were off for gold
Grog in our bellies, horn-pipes…

Here is my latest song, I was playing around with my Tele into my Adrenalinn III pedal with its beat sync'd effects which gave me some of the sounds here.

Well, my son and I were sitting around the backyard last night. A nice fire going, I was playing my acoustic, and we heard this crazy cricket chirping away very close to us. My son asked if I could record him with my "machine". Out came the…
Life is a quest for knowledge and a simple realization that not only is there so much we don't know but to declare it somehow is empowering. A great collaboration with Norm who is an amazing percussionist and a super cool guy! Thanks for the…
Came up with this Before bed last night.
Had to record it this morning so I wouldn't forget the Sound of it...
Live recording

We went to visit my dad at his assisted living facility and they have a Yamaha Clavinova on which I improvised for a half hour to provide some entertainment. This is a ~ 3 minute excerpt from about half way through. This was recorded on my Zoom…
electric mandolin on 3 tracks - 2 bowed (right and left) with viola bow and 1 strummed just a bit and mostly ebowed (center)
Washburn bass
voice with effects
drum loops sliced and diced
A second version with the initial lead guitar standing alone...a little cluttered after a few listens and some constructive feedback!
Norm's Groove for St Monica inspired this one. Thanks Norm!
Lead Guitar, bass guitar and acoustic guitar…
Well, I realized while listening to so many other great rough cuts and demos (and how much I enjoyed listening to them), that it was about time I contributed to the process. Rather than posting only completed songs, I decided to put up the rough…
Holy crap man, I have just stumbled onto the motherlode of dream pop perfection. I like your style a lot, a real lot. I'm gonna have to take the time to listen to all your songs now!!!!!
I hear you calling, calling
I know your sky, it must be falling
and you want me to get you straight
to the counterfeit you
You're feeling sloppy poppy
you want to be all 'happy' again
can I catch you up on 13th street
crazy from the…
one who is on the brink. this song displays a pensive happiness, an anticipation. It is a duet between an accoustic guitar and an extremely on point drum synth.
ok, volume is fixed, and the title too. Maybe soon I will mix it better or perhaps just move on to better things. Thanks to those who gave excellent advice on previous version.
and the #2 version has been deleted (actually this is #2).
This started as an instrumental piece until my goog friend Nick Coward wrote some lyrics andrecorded them remotely. He sent me a CD of his vocal tracks which I synched and here we have it.
