My contribution to the Angie Fights Crime album "Sunny, Sorta..." AFC wrote the lyrics and chords, then gave me free reign to do what I wanted from there.

This is my contribution to the Angie Fights Crime project titled "Sunny Sorta"...." It's 12 songs written by A.F.C. and performed by 12 different artists.
I chose Honky Tonk Prison because I knew it would rock and roll :)

Another one from last nights session down the cellar.........Well it was only a matter of time before Reg had enough of her, she reminded him too much of Desire......now he's gone.......it was goodbye.........
Eerrgh! I *knew* that Desire was a big mistake for you. I'm afraid that she might haunt you forever. (What ever happened to her??) Nice dog-house bass.
I salivated over this $3,500 guitar last night. I had the "expensive guitar room" at Guitar Center to myself so I played and recorded on my zoom H2. Yes, this is guitar p0rn...
I hijacked Norbert Oldani's excellent piano improvisation and add some guitar to it.
His original is here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5150711/PianoI911.mp3

Lucky for me he had the time, the voice, and the melody. We created this lovely tune.
I was electrified…
Reg has been reading a lot lately he's currently reading an interesting book called "Storming Heaven LSD and the American Dream by Jay Stevens" and so he decided to revisit A Toast to the Stone-age he did with Norm during Johnny's death and before…

Against the world in which they have to live

They're tired of being pushed around

They'll fight the world until they've…
I reverted my Woods acoustic from 18 edo back to normal 12 edo - and ran 2 tracks of it into guitar rig. Added 5 string bass - and then added the drum pad - which explains the totally odd percussion. The first track I did had an open mic (thus…
