Chording improvisation on 7 different conga drums tuned to an octave and set to 3-2 rumba clave.
LYRICS
Lookie here hot-shot: a silent fool is half a wise-man
And there…
Well now ,home spun wisdom and a drum accompaniement....more than you could have asked for.
However "Chording improvisation on 7 different conga drums tuned to an octave and set to 3-2 rumba clave." may as well have been written in mandarin for all that I understood of it !!

Inside my heart is too.

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…

Came up with this Before bed last night.
Had to record it this morning so I wouldn't forget the Sound of it...
Live recording
I'll do a better version when I have more time...
Well.... Off to work for me...
This is…
For those I call my friends....

Days of old and nights that Slip into the…
It is to you
I look for every step
It is to you
I look for every breath
No one can see the tide they're riding
No one can see the place they're going
It is for you
I look in every face
It is for you
I look in every place
There is no loneliness…
This is probably the last of this stuff from the archives that I'll upload. Rescued from a cassette tape of a live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen. These tunes are popular down in the Southwest of Ireland. Michael(Fiddle) and…
Drive cleaning time!!
Found this arrangement left over from RPM. The drum track was already mixed from my old kit. I cut it and mashed it up trying to fix it when I mix it.
Then I added some vintage synth sounds, some guitars, and some reptilian…
Well, I had this crazy idea that *maybe* Buddy Guy was using some microtonal inflections in his cover of Tramp (which are what the "blue notes" are and thought it would be cool to cover it with my fretless guitar. As it turned out it was my ear…
Here it is baby: This is your best vocal work ever... not nearly as sexy as the sister's rendition (and I love the shock value of a girl singing this one – I really hope that gem gets posted too) but your enthusiasm is infectious and it brings me joy to hear you torturing your fretless guitar. Was that a bit of a laugh I heard at one point? Well, it works for you. Call me country…
Trap set? We don’t need no stinking trap sets. Tambourine, cajón and cymbals.

We went to visit my dad at his assisted living facility and they have a Yamaha Clavinova on which I improvised for a half hour to provide some entertainment. This is a ~ 3 minute excerpt from about half way through. This was recorded on my Zoom…
You've got the buttons
that are made out of my bones
You've got the ghost of me
that still can stitch them on
And ev'ry time you close your vest
you will hold me near
But that's as close as I'll ever get
to you my dear, I fear

Not to start a George tribute, but here's a cover I did with Facemask93 that I really love. All I did was bass, backing vox and the drum pattern arrangement - I did feel a little like a dope trying to sing along with Rob's amazing voice, but will…
Since Norm found himself in an acoustically great room, full of unfinished cabinets I couldn't help but add some acoustic guitar, crank it up and hope you like it Norm!
The most excellent thing about this, besides your trade-mark sweet stringing, is how you phrased this so very differently than I had ever heard it. That's one of the charms of rhythm - how you hear it depends upon where you are starting from. I think I much prefer your ear to mine with this one. Many thanks.

I dig that ebowed electric mandolin! Thanks for carrying me, Chris!
Ha! I have an ear for vintage Vaisvil!
Great guitars. I was suprised that this was a 2010 piece... reminds me of some of your vintage stuff.
Excellent!
Yes, beautiful.
Very strong. Love the sound check!
Excellent. I like the drum work too. The guitar bridge rules.
How fun. Barkeep - another round for the band!
Nice one! Drum track sounds very nice - you should get your kit back out!

Excellent. Nice work!
Cool production. Work on the title.
If I lived closer to you, I would drag a couple conga drums along and join you at the retirement facility! Very honorable!
What a nice thing for you to do. Well done!
Beautiful.
Still excellent.
Yes, yes, YES!
@ Chris: Excellent! Good ear - yes, it's a 4vs.6 cross-over.
