Having more fun with Hendrix. I tried to stay true to the original as far as using no overdubs. Just one guitar, bass, drum and vocal track. Kind of used a mix approach and used a bit from the record and a bit from his live performance in Winterland…
Great cover...kinda know where he's coming from, though more recently manic depression has been re-labelled a bipolar bear syndrome!:-)Oh yes, there's a song in that, I just haven't recorded it...yet!
I took an old track that was a cover of Hear my train and dropped the vocals and added some new electric guitar tracks. I had just upgraded my recording setup and was testing some hardware and software when I did this. It has a punchy lil guitar…
This is a bonus track of sorts for the mock EP It takes a village. I had the verse chord chages around for many years but just until last week the song and lyrics came together really quickly. I thought I heard a band arrangement originally but…
Okay Andrew R. , this ones for you bud. Had a little fun with it in the intro. That was the surprise.
I put the bass line down and arranged the drums Saturday morning and returned later that night about 10:00 pm . I worked until 2 am and laid…
This was a one of the versions of Stay I was working on from a year and a half ago. I put a mic in a narrow hall way closet and went in recorded the guitar and vocal simultaneously. Hoping to get a break in the action and get one of my new songs…
FDR emerged from his cave one morning and took a stroll,it was a blustery day and his ears blew back like two streamers in the wind. He went down into the woods and there in the dappled sunshine he saw something gleaming through the…
Warning: Synthesized Acoustic Instruments
(ca 1998) A sort of sappy ragtime ballad thing. Composed on a Roland JV-30 using Cakewalk. This version was rendered with TiMidity++ & freepats from a recovered MIDI file. I don't know what happened…
Dug up an old one. I'm sure 'True Blood' had something to do with this. All I do know I was just getting over Flu, hence the voice !!!! No more Flu please, twice in my life is enough !!!!
Why?
Oh' I am not so ready in my heart
But I will reach for closeness to the wind
Fear stops what we feel.
I feel i know you now.
Lay
Let's talk of all the things we need to say
No whispers will suffice in our abode
Only song of what we…
Jip1965 came round to kick my ass into gear and played a bit of rhythm i did the rest and then sent it off to the good Lady Jane to do her stuff and very nice stuff indeed! Cheers Me Lady!!! x
A mash/add-on for the Sound-In event this week. Took Glenn Smith's bass piece ("Enter the Ice") from last week, added Shane Cadman's chimes then played some "frozen" guitar over that.
This is probably some of the most original music I have heard. It has alot of recognizable elements that meld together really well. Blows me away everytime.
Waiting for something that would be: familiar feeling, isn't it? We look forward to when she comes back, look forward to when the morning comes; waiting to stop the rain (or when will finally rain...).
Life itself is a... waiting?

Contnuing the sabbatical with FDR...........hey hoaa!
This is genious. Love it.
Epic track! Full bore!
:) genious.
Totally helped ease a restless mind. Thank you.
This would make great scoring work. Nice creation.
This is tops. Keeps the interested very similar to Giraffage's stuff.
Totally whacked , had me smilin the whole time.
Nice and rich sound with those stereo guitars and layered vocals.
U have a signature style goin on with that drop tuning, stacked vocals and snappy percussion..
Very hip...could even go in the direction of heavy distorted guitars but stands on its own as is.
Instant fave! Listening while making some Voodoo pancakes....hey voodoo chile!
Real great song and performance. Your lyrics are like a work of art. This creme of crop.
Somebody done spank the booty off that bass line!
Experimental and trippy. Picturing some sort of ritual in the desert. All the dissonant chord tones work great.
This is probably some of the most original music I have heard. It has alot of recognizable elements that meld together really well. Blows me away everytime.
A higher musical consciousness. Meditative.
That is a very strange sound there..cant plac e what it is but its strange and beautiful at the same time.
