Didnt get the album out for RPM this year, but did have some time to make some music in Feb. Dylan is one of my favs . lowered the BPM quite a bit and truncated the lyrics to fit, which Im pretty sure put my wife to sleep, lol Enjoy!
Lyrics…
After several bottles of wine, thetworegs and I were able to coerce Elvis and a few others down in regs basement to come out for a long overdue collab. After all, isn't October collab month?
Thanks again for the great vox!!
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
Just got my system up again after several hardware upgrade conflicts, and a move to California.
Been thinking about changing this songs ending for a while, finally getting around to it. Good to post here again!

I recorded the sound samples at St Marks Basilica on the spot....the story you are about to hear is true; not even the names have changed to protect the innocent.

Wait. Desirea is back on the scene? When did she get sprung from the Big House? Has she actually gone to any of her anger management classes?
(And how is she looking now days?)

A sweaty foot covered in fishnet, fresh from a patent leather high-heal shoe was always Elvis’s first addiction then others followed quickly......and it all got out of hand when Desirea came on the scene .... but that’s another story
