A bit of comic relief is good when you have some writers block. I had he song mapped out years before I recorded it. I need to record its companion "Won't you please squeeze my udder Farmer Joe?".

Did this many years ago. It came together very quickly. There are know synths, all guitars and backwards vocals, sped up vocals, detuned vocals.....whacked sounds. I wrote the lyrics on the spot. I love its deep personal message...lol!

This is an original jig that I wrote the week I got my 4 string banjo. Someday I may go back and put words to this, but for now it sounds good as an instrumental.

I actually just stumbled across this song on Youtube about a week ago. I needed something lively to add to this album, and this song caught my attention. Just a fun little song.

I'll tell you the truth... This song is "What Child Is This" to my ears. It always will be. That is one of my favorite Christmas songs, and since I know it shares the melody with this old traditional song, I thought it would be fun to do…

This was the very first original piece of Irish-inspired music that I ever wrote. It's simple, but very happy and catchy.

It was, and it was so bloody hot when i was recording this that i nearly melted!

Mucking around with synthesizers one night and this happened.

Wrote this in response to all tge news footage of unibombers , shoe bombers....etc....back in the day.

Laid back blues in the way of Red House.

Soloing over a Albert King style Blues backing track.

A Dave Mason classic done in the style or Parliament Funkadelic.

Just a bit of fun.

I started this song more than 5 years ago, and have now only just finished it.

Tried my hand at lead guitar on this one for a different flavor, Thanks to Norm for his percussion magic!

We did four versions of this song - all with different guitars (or combinations thereof). This is version 2, my own favorite version. You can find all four versions at my web site: http://stoman.org/download/V1_What_I_Feel_For_You.mp3 http…

Inspired by Joel Taylor's piece in scala's 12-22h.scl tuning 12-22hexachordal sonatina I tried my hand at it and came up with this piano improvisation called "Smoke Filled Bar". I found this excellent drawing of a femme fatale in a smoke filled…
