Different recording here as the electric guitar, bass guitar were not plugged in, just recorded raw with a power mic and then EQ'ed to make it sound amped - pardon mistakes!

Interesting subject matter in a world filled with high achievers buying their way to prosperity.
I like the message here. I think we need more of that.

Duh! Now I get it. Electric guitar and bass recorded without benefit of amplifier or direct plug into a mixer. Way cool! And the added bonus of the percussion effect of your fingers against the strings - advancing the status of your chordophones to that of a percussion instrument!
I don't think I have heard a recording like this before.

Excellent! I think the recording sounds great... but then that's how I record everything. Dig the whistleing reverb.
I was surprised that your phone didn't ring while you had the open mics on...
jqscutt posted the acoustic guitar track looking for ideas, not sure if it turned into the genre he was looking for :)
The auuuggga horn sound was another classic unplanned phone interruption during the vocal recording but it seems to fit in…

Oh well, nothing like going to a middle school music function to break writers block, all those posters and flare about achievement...
Special thanks to my sons middle school band, The Preston Pumas playing at the end !

Had these backing tracks laying around on my drive for a while and didn't know what to do with them, so grabbed my Ebow and a fretless electric that I built for myself a couple years ago and had a go. My fretless playing is really in its infancy…
Found this track from 1998 - I'm on a Time kick I guess...
Time waits for no one
We are all adrift
Finding ourselves in space
All Lost
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Where is my Home?
Time waits for no…
Wrote all the lyrics and most of the melody for this song in one sitting during a particularly busy period in my life.
Just an indulgent little jazz tune poking fun at myself... those who know me well will instantly recognise the lyrics as…
An exercise in dissecting a well known song to see what makes it tick. Drums are looped, bass is not in tune, guitar is not quite right, but I'm slowly getting there. Will update this later. Somewhen...
It's not unusual to chase your girl around with a dull axe, is it? Just kidding - This was 60 tracks and almost a year to finish. I had some help:
Guitars: Tony W
Fadeout Solo: Gnasty
Acoustic/Rhythm Guitars: Me
Phone Message: Tony W &…
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…
electric mandolin on 3 tracks - 2 bowed (right and left) with viola bow and 1 strummed just a bit and mostly ebowed (center)

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…
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!
oh man, I really like this one. I had attempted a tune with this perc track using samples of other kitchen sounds but could never get it right. This sounds really good . nice collab guys !

Very nice man!@ I have tried that method of recording with an electric but did not get the results you did!
Procrastination unite...Well executed song man! Your vocals are smooth..
Why do today what you can put off until tomorrow?! Great song!

Good song and different sound, nice.
Amen.Defy labels.

The gunshot makes me smile everytime
Real nice Reef. Pro level track man.
Love the cello. Love the harmonies. Love the backing guitar work. Hate the phone. Your phone is the devil.
You are definately not living in middle C. Let me know when you hear that knocking at the door, so we can both charge through it...
I love the music and the vocals are excellent.
Sounds great fun. Lovely atmosphere!
Cool little ditty, love the vocal effect (I think Alice Cooper used it in one of his songs) but worked really well.
Excellent!
Another beauty.....loved it
excellent.....
This is brilliant

K, the fretless was exactly what was needed. excellent playing as usual.
but wait, theres a floydish Animals ingredient too in that bouncy bass
wow ! very cool, I like the big open smokey jazz lounge feel
fuzzfilth ! great tune. I think it sounds great as is.
cool sounds, really like this tune, crisp
of corse this is excellent. the sound clips are a really cool addition, I have a pic of Duke in the music room but have never heard his voice.
creative and tech great mix...and ah yes, that solo...Download
very cool tune. love the harp
cross-over rhythms are getting a little easier to follow, in large, do your your posts man ! keep em coming... sounding good.
wow, dude, I cant believe I missed this one, nice Ukulele - like the tone at the end and beginning.
great tune, well timed out and mixed too. I like the guitar notes and tone thoughout
Gritty, raw, cool Tramp tribute. I think the fretless guitar is excellent. perc matches the raw feel.
I like the subtle progression- almost a rick wakeman feel near the second part. I like the simple ending too.
wow, strings really fill up the room. Great sound !
Im glad to see you back ! tight rhythm and cool new Fx's. the new room sounds good - almost like cherry wood...
cool rhythm, sounds like some FX on the bass drum too?
Nice improv. Something also to be said about doing songs in different locations too. background voices a plus.
yeaaaa baby!!!. dig this song. Nice collabatone!

Another sweet tune
