Out on the lawn there arose such a clatter!
Sometimes, as they say, Christmas do come early. I found Johnny Stone's "Christmas Rock In Oz" under the tree and couldn't wait until Yuletide to unwrap it. What a rockin' gift! I know a bit about…
It was a curious and wondrous thing.
One night I was in my studio adding some percussion to the "Quiet Rituals" track by Barry van Oudtshoorn, when my 4 young children (with whom I was long over-due to be tucking into bed and reading a bed…

Aw, we tried to make this a bit more pro, but sometimes the really fun moments in life are fleeting. So here it is warts and all. But don't mind that - just get out onto the dance floor with Reg! It's ok: he's up to date on his shots.

This is a cover of a wonderful song by Yoko Kanno, Steve Conte, & Shanti Snyder.
Music by Brian Vaughn
Vocals by Brian Vaughn and Stephanie Hossfeld-Downey
Just a rough version of a song I plan to record properly during this coming February's RPM Challenge.

I'm glad that it is day time here - this extraordinary sound seems to lend itself to the mysticism of the early hours. (Oh dear, I've become a blatant plagiarist.)
