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.

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…
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…

Damn fine work Norm. Damn fine. Love the changes, the whole piece is incredible. Also love the comment reference to mty. python. ;) The speed at the begining is killer. Listened to, saved, donwloaded, and fav'd....i'll be jammin on this on for a while!

@Sis: LOL!
Sir Bedevere: There are ways of telling whether she is a witch.
---Are there? Oh well, tell us.
Sir Bedevere: Tell me. What do you do with witches?
--Burn them.
Sir Bedevere: And what do you burn, apart from witches?
--More witches.
--Wood.
Sir Bedevere: Good. Now, why do witches burn?
--...because they're made of... wood?
Sir Bedevere: Good. So how do you tell whether she is made of wood?
--Build a bridge out of her.
Sir Bedevere: But can you not also build bridges out of stone?
--Oh yeah.
Sir Bedevere: Does wood sink in water?
--No, no, it floats!... It floats! Throw her into the pond!
Sir Bedevere: No, no. What else floats in water?
--Bread.
--Apples.
--Very small rocks.
--Cider.
--Gravy.
--Cherries.
--Mud.
--Churches.
--Lead! Lead!
--A Duck.
Sir Bedevere: ...Exactly. So, logically...
--If she weighed the same as a duck... she's made of wood.
Sir Bedevere: And therefore...
...A witch!

Shout out to Tom Waits, one of my favs. Rumor has it, he has had a similar problem with his piano.
I didnt think I would make it signing this way to the end of the song, lol.
Throat lozenge anyone??
Last of the archives for now. A set of reels from the Last Nights Fun album. I did pipes, whistle and guitar on the last tune in the set. There's a live version of this up here too. This is the studio cut
This is a recording of Norm and me playing together a few months ago. I didnt have any percussion instruments so Norm was on a Roland electric trap set and I had a cello. I looped some of the stuff we did that night, and retrofitted the rest…
Norm played the percussion first, which is a Bembe pattern; I couldnt help playing a melody and creating lyrics for this perc track. Thanks for the listen, Enjoy!
this was originally a song about breaking through paradigms but turned into a song about a girl.
Keys and string samples from Korg, MIDI with the old Ensoniq,
one diving board.
Thanks for the listen ,enjoy... RW
A collab with Tod Wolfe and Ken Davidsen - Awesome dudes!

When we were kids, my brother used to wake me up before dawn and we would schlep across this field and wait for the unobstructed sunrise. At that time, it seemed like the coolest thing ever!
I have officially stopped with CD 's and now have decided to mail zip drives. I tried mailing these in a regular envelope. (FAIL lol)
One guy got postage due of $2.51 and the other, the envelope was destroyed with no zip at all. For my brother…
Another recent song somehow not posted to AT (?) cleaning house this weekend.
Had the privilege of playing around with a cello in the house.
Dont know how to play the damn thing but too fun not adding it in the mix
Comments on Norm's stuff

Comments made by Norm
Great! I wish that it went on much longer. I thought that you were lulling me into a perfect wave and were then going to hit me with a Tsunami.
I hate it. Wait! No, I love it.
HOLY SHIT!!! Maybe you and I should have a small fight out on the lawn...
I hope you get fat.
Oh Tess...
Hmmm, Walker. Who on Earth would ever put such dangerous music into the hands of such an impressionable youg man?
Too much fun!
Long live the trilogy!!
Worked!
Ha! I haven't had to listen to this one in over 2 years. Progress! An epic recording. Very important to me.
So GREAT to hear from you again.
Great lullaby. Please play me just one more. Whaaa? Where did Launched come from? I had given up hope!
BUMP CITY!
One of the coolest songs ever.
I am grateful for those memories...
ZZLOVEIT!
One of the best technical songs ever. Now, regarding the Hurdy Gurdy... Well done my bold brother. And Merry Christmas.
Typical USPS. Congrats on the new throne! I can't wait to steal it.
Damn that Desirea. She does that to everyone...
Didn't you have a graphic of the original lyrics for this? :) Great remix.
