This spooky track utilizes the "Paulstretch" program to stretch recordings of gongs, chimes and bells to 8.04 times their native length: no other effects were made to these acoustic recordings other than to stretch them. The gongs utilized are…

Have you heard this story of the Hot Rod Race…

I've been in drum circles with some of those guys... you'd better check for your wallet!
Excellent slide guitar work, great vocals.
Aaye likes this one all the way down to the bottom of my arrrgyle socks!
Well done! Tight and pro - but I don't get the lyrics... what's wrong with me???
Awesome bass and really cool stereophonic uke hook. Your onion brought some tears to my eyes... and definately kept mine moving!
Ouch! My neck is a bit sore from aggressively nodding my head to the beat!Good one!
Man, that IS a cool bass riff. Great piece!
Ha! Forget The 61 - this is awesome. It's great to see you play too. More tastey Vaisvil guitar goodness!
...if I had any pipes. But, man, unless you want to peel paint, I'm going to need to stick to the occassional narration. ;) Thanks for listening!
More Doors! *Excellent*
Menacing! Great guitar work here!
I agree! Smooookin'!
Strong work!
Great work!
