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??
I like your froggy throat! Reminds me of an iron chef where the main course was lobster and one chef took to dunking his live, huge, 30 year old, lobsters into a cask of sake or something alcoholic. You need a similar cask for your Gibson. To answer your question - glass slide.

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
I write a Vikings parody song for every game of the Minnesota Vikings season for my blog, which is found at http://www.thevikingship.net
This is a parody of Killing In The Name Of by Rage Against The Machine
Lucy of the species Australopithecus looks into the distance of Awash Valley in what is now Ethiopia and feels the future of what can be.
Performed in Charles Lucy's 0b5s tuning
This dark reggae tune has been hanging around in my "works in progress" folder for a while, but I was finally inspired to complete it when I borrowed a guitar from my friend Joe. Thanks, Joe!
Time for a little humor. I had my wisdom teeth pulled last year, and the pain was debilitating. When I got the right pain meds, I felt so much better that I wrote this song. Colin added his considerable vocal talents and his harmonica and brought…
A second version with the initial lead guitar standing alone...a little cluttered after a few listens and some constructive feedback!
Norm's Groove for St Monica inspired this one. Thanks Norm!
Lead Guitar, bass guitar and acoustic guitar…
Hey Rick !
What a cool album, The collabs you have done with this percussion are perfect matches.
It only seems like Norm and I have been on AT for a few months but it has been over a year-and many tunes later :)

Another experiment with MetaSynth this time taking a single bowed waterphone sample and running it through the Spectrum Synth. I then experimented with the tempo (spectral timestretching), interpolation settings, and applying formant filters to…
Fisherman and the Siren by Lord Frederic Leighton
This is a blues collaboration between The TwoRegs (vocals / lyrics) and Norm Harris (percussion) and myself (17 note per octave electric guitar and fretless bass).
We hope you enjoy it…
the sheriff's back in town
that o' hired hand of dread
cleanin' up the channels
knockin' down the webs
his lights, they are a flashin'
stopped me in my tracks alone
his hand on rein and bridle says
this freedom's gotta go
he said it…
Norm has been teaching a master's class in percussion and gave me (a lot!!) of guidance to try to add bass properly to this. I added 5 string bass, Fender Mustang and GR-20 sax to his excellent Tumbao track. We hope you enjoy it.
about Winter Nacht
each year for the past 4 RPM cycles,, i have known a friend or loved one who has passed away... throughout history winter has been a time when sickness and death creep a little stronger amongst us..... perhaps because of these…
At a recent charity event held in my small town's train museum, I was admiring a massive brass train bell when the curator walked up to me. I commented that a bell would really rather be heard then seen, and he agreed. I offered to digitally record…

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.
So moody, great!
driving the pacific hwy at dusk !
this is pretty cool

HOLY SHIT!!! Maybe you and I should have a small fight out on the lawn...
I hope you get fat.
A super hero theme for sure with a Tarintino feel ....Love it !!
Great stuff!! Hic!! Burp!!
Post-rock Waits? Why not!
I'd leave a comment, but by the time it was finished I was sleeping.
Works for me...a great sadness undertow...
A new Clint Eastwood will need this for his new spigot western. Great guitar sounds.
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.
Great lullaby. Please play me just one more. Whaaa? Where did Launched come from? I had given up hope!
I toetapped this sonnavabitch through the floor and down into the basement!!! And the recording quality is impeccable, I love it!
Magic!!
Such a pretty sound. Caught it at sunrise and it was perfect!

delicate, precise fret play and a classic blues vocal
cool feel, the bass/drum rif is almost radioheadish.
cool track, cant believe I havent herd your stuff before now ! Waayyy to short, would love to hear a full up version with vox.
what spot did you write this song on again ??
drooling over the guitar pics, the green axe is particularly dreamy. nice blues with the harp..
oh man I have tears in my eyes. Great tune. GO vikings! - unless of course they play The Broncos.
The evoked emotion with this microtonal piece is perfect for pondering the future-even for hominids
love the bass riff on this one mon! cool reggae tune.
Down to a tee including the vocal at about :55 Zep is absolutely the best. Great cover. This would sound so killer with a multiple mic up/mix
well of course, how else could you play rock and roll? Love the harp and the horns in there too- nice! Somehow Sid Vicious didnt do this one first.
would fav this again if I could...

I like the percussion filling in on this song, really glues it together. The violin is fantastic.
I have no idea what you just said....but it sounds cool. way outerspace
cool, gritty tune
Down to earth grass root playing. great tune. cant help but think of Neil Young influences.
great cover gents. vocals ,mix is very good.
cool twist to this track Chris, the sax sounds great here.
haunting and beautiful too. Great work RA
excellent field work my brother, I know you have other samples from this gem, send me a wav.
