'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free
'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be,
And when we find ourselves in the place just right,
'Twill be in the valley of love and delight.
When true simplicity is gain'd,

Antoinette plays keys, Anonymous plays drums, Evan is guitar left, Chris is guitar right (sorry I was a jerk and too loud) - This dates from 1977 when I was a classical major and Antoinette a piano major. Even though this improvisation was from…
This is some good fu-fu with good ju-ju. Thank the Almighty for the "minor miracle" of magnetic tape, which the Library of Congress well-knows may need baking from time to time but is a format that bonehead computer-science nerds can't render obsolete by declaring it no-longer-supported.

Winter 1977 / 1978 - band is Clay percussion, Evan guitar and guitar pedals (synth sounds), Mike Barry piano, Mike Craddock bass, and Chris guitar (with echo / volume pedal)
This was the next to last jam of the night
Only just seen your reply on this one - about HAIM's version of the Fleetwood Mac song... I keep getting recommended it on youtube - I shall press play ..... WOW! The reason I keep getting recommended it is because I'm a big fan of Larkin Poe, have you heard of them? Check out their "Tip O the Hat" series of home vids - two sisters, lead and backing vox, six string and... a KILLER lap-steel player (thinking of getting one)(a lap-steel, not a Megan Lovell, she's already taken!)
wow---Darmok with hands held open.. :)
It could have a counterpoint track added from a synthesizer performance that could happen-- maybe using this work as part of the synth construction--???

Andrew, sorry - I wasn't even think of that even though I saw a live show video by HAIM where some young ladies from southern California ripped that cover song up! Worth a search!

So I put 77/78 together with the title "Oh Well" and came up with... "wow! they played that?... ummm... er... ok... when does the riff start then??" lol ... Once I got to the end, I realised it obviously wasn't ever going to burst into "I can't help about the shape I'm in / I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin"... So I went round again... and appreciated some very cool sounds. In fact, this is mighty cool.
Thank you Greg, Colleen, and Andrew for your comments. I need to add a little more from that day so long ago.
The Battle for Layfayette Square were improvisational warm ups and cool downs for practicing this progressive rock attempt that clocks…

here is a song from 72, by bread, that I always wanted to make a harder rock version of. an idea I have had since the early 70's. this was one of the rockin' songs by bread who did a lot of mellow love songs. there is something fun about turning…
For a friend who touched my heart
Emotion - 1975
Delicatly, softly,
Not knowing where she wants to be
Confusing, disillusioning,
Not knowing who she wants to be
Pulled from side to side
And inside about to die
She screams, I can't take it…

OOOOh Bethan - the equipment was so bad it picked up Citizen's Band radios that were over-driven beyond the legal limit. Nonetheless. I still had the crush :-)

Playing guitar while watching a storm come in on weather radar.
Fernandes guitar with the sustainor pickup system. It's like an ebow for all the strings at once! Loads of fun :)

This is an invitation, with instructions, on how any AT musician can hop a train in the US and get to my house for a jam session. Figured the lyrics needed to mention all 3 of the collaborating musicians home towns cuz they all run along these…
I asked JohnnyRobbo from over on the Cool-lab to do the backer for this one as our next Collab together and he's done an outstanding job on it ...I had the easy bit adding the words...Hope you enjoy this Led Zep classic......
All this Big Brother is getting a bit much for Reg............so he's got to thinking... O,O!!.... So here's a bit of a noodling folkyPsychodelic thing in Protest at our loss of freedom and where the future may lie......who's to blame?..........
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
great it is true mostly the repeating --- why is the barrel empty ? or most empty?
yeah it is good these notes work together nicely --
nice stuff
And this gives me some release - but not loads! I was going to ask if it's an ebow, but it's not is it? Sounds like a real bow?
I find this one a slightly more challenging listen!
This one follows Hopey Changey really well
I listened to these the other day while I was doing something else... I forgot to come back and comment. This is a gorgeous sound.
love the groove, add some lyrics to this Chris!
Neat guitar sound.

This washes over you in a kind of all-enveloping way
yes very powerful music and lyrics.. can't quite hear the lyrics but I am glad you wrote them out the lyrics are the best I have seen ..-- wow
I thought I'd commented?! .... anyways, WOW that's a monster. I'll give it another listen over the next few days.

has ORH rubbed off on you?
Thank you for the comments Kavin - I know I'd be happy listening to B read a phone book too! And this piece is simply magical!
I'm at 28+ minutes.... this is awesome!
Beautiful. Gosh I really love what you do with your rig.
don't step on the event horizon!
yeah this is a good song indeed.
15 edo
crazy stuff!
I should mention the echo was a real echoplex... I do miss it.
OOOOh Bethan - the equipment was so bad it picked up Citizen's Band radios that were over-driven beyond the legal limit. Nonetheless. I still had the crush :-)
If by fuzzy wuzzy you mean touching my heart - well I had a crush on Cindy.
it is a vintage 1975 cassette recording with bad equipment - please listen to the spirit, not the reality.
this is great - there is a lot of playing with expectation in this. that is awesome work Bruce!
Beautiful Bruce!
I agree with Kavin
awesome!!
Easily gets "one of the best of AT" awards! Awesome song!
oh yeah - this superb!
execellent!
Thank you so much for singing on this! Man you have a good voice!
