A 3 track improvisation on 7 congas roughly tuned by ear to a chromatic scale.

Long drum solos aren't for everyone - I get it. Just do what many at Grateful Dead concerts did and look at it as an opportunity to go get another beer. On the other hand, if you are the sort of person who cheers at the fireworks show, I hope…
Improvisation on congas and very fragile, clay Moroccan bongos (which my brother found for me from an African display at some zoo!). These bongos are basically clay pots with permanent, very thin goat skins stretched over the top - they can not…
I asked CaptGene for something funky, trusting that a fishing guide from Babsom Park would know exactly what I was talking about. He did. The Captain knows funk.
I used to have a link to his original version here, but that is no longer available…
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…

Thanks man, I am learning from the best ;) when I was playing around with the percussion samples last night I kept thinking it needed something, and I listened to your drums a few times and went......COWBELL!!!!
As I had nothing better to do last night, I had this great idea that I would construct a rhythm for the 24 hour challenge. This would be different: a 24 minute drum solo (I mean, who wouldn't love that?). I even had a perfect bass riff: the "Mother…

Such good fun I do it all the time.
Single Gon Bops conga track miced for heavy bass. And 2 tracks of cow bell, of course.

Just messing around on a Saturday morning. A
rough cut at best, but I get a kick out of it.
This is a song by the great Jimmy Dean - 1961

wore a young boy's clothes. I always wanted to

Outstanding nightmare! I would suggest the gentle listener doesn't get tucked in with this one unless they want to stare at the ceiling for awhile before they finally get to sleep.
Did the guitar tracks first, followed by bass, then drums and vocals last. I wrote this song in a bookstore, after I came home and recorded it, I realized I made the song too short for all the lyrics.

Reefwalker, you don't even need a vocoder. A jacuzzi is a much better option. Once your boy gets into it, he'll forget all about the vocoder! (But I did trade the Caddy for a really nice microphone...)
This is a live recording from a club that had a studio built into it. Unfortuntately, the club shut down. After performing this one, there was a chill up my spine. It's a haunting one.

We’ve heard all the compliments.
All said in a day.
They’ve lost all their meaning now.
Wasted away.
They were there…

I hope Norm will forgive me for what I did to his excellent percussion track.
I bought a used Alesis mixer today from guitar center and had to try it out, of course. So I laid down 4 tracks of 12 string guitar - including…
Comments on Norm's stuff
I almost missed this one ! cool perc track from start to finish
Totally hot and inspirational! Fabulous beats bringing a sweet melody of their own.
Bethan thinks you should lay down some percussion to add to my Christmas Jam...I don't disagree!
Excellent Norm top rhythm brilliant.
Killer, very nice!
dig it, snr :)
Oh great stuff Norm. What a lovely rhythm. Most enjoyable track.
I agree with Dave very infectious, i've caught it ........oooooooh Yeh........
Your sense of timing is unbelievable man. This is very infectious and cool grooving song. Drums as melodic structure, its very inspired.
Most excellent!
I *love* this - its excellent!!!
I can dig it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow!
Cool title and the percussion is spot on as hell...lots of talent Norm.
Great collab very cool dudes.
This one got the head nodding and the foot a tapping.
Yeeahhh!!!!
Thanks man, I am learning from the best ;) when I was playing around with the percussion samples last night I kept thinking it needed something, and I listened to your drums a few times and went......COWBELL!!!!
Even with your troubles I still dig this one man.
This is one of my favorites!! Matt Fulton

A classic! Great fun!
Cool! (great graphic, too!)
Nice bodhran work here! I've a sudden craving for a pint...
Wonderful! I can't wait for the Broadway Show!!
Immense!

Truer words were never spoke. Well done.
Very nice. Beautiful voice.
Cool bass groove!
IMHO, the only button left to push is "fave"!
Fantastic. Stem to stern hit. I like everything about it. "I'l be my own harmonizing vocoder" - ha! You should really post the lyrics to this gem.
Another great one from Mr. Sweet! Many thanks!
Great story!
Beautiful! Lovely voice!!
Yep, I want to dance. Excellent drum work here.
Sweet! Great voice! Nice funky bridge, too!
I like it! Nice drum work here...
Very clever. Nice work!
Ha! Who doesn't dream of Barbara Eden??
