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…

I've always imagined you younger than me. But if you were doing this in 77 (I was 14 and in a choir, and writing songs about Garden Gnomes), then obviously not! This is mighty cool stuff for back then... wow
a small quiet piece for a Sunday evening,, all four string sections are present here,, violin, viola,cello and contrabass,,it's kind of fun to try to mix, and pass the various themes around,,
Hi Richard, the tuning I used for the Magic of Belief has much more than major or minor and I used almost all of the. The opening plays with the chords CDG, CEbG CEb^G (a "neutral" third about half way between minor and major) and CEG (except the E is a purer 3rd than 12 equal)
The main motive bottoms out at what my ears are telling me is a neutral interval against a D neutral chord (but I'm not 100% sure, I didn't work it out - could be D minor)
A shorter, stripped down version of a drone piece I submitted for the ongoing Fukushima Drones project, which you will find here:

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…

What with all the great Zep covers posted by Tworegs and Chris Vaisvil, here's mine, I enlisted the vocal of the man himself, thanks Reg! Also note my new fretless strat as second guitar here.
Thank you for the comments. I don't often comment here anymore but I do want to answer your Rhodes question. I believe Ben uses a Yamaha Motif. The clarinets are real. I'd love to hear your new age version of Stairway - that would be grand!
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 :-)

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.
Was somebody listening to Can? ;)
Great interpretation! ( I have typed and erased several times and now . . . . I'll just leave it at that)
Good stuff!
Wow!!! It totally does fit the narrative of Lafayette Square...
I'm about to get called into a zoom meeting for work... I'll be back for the rest after

good sounds going on in this.
this.. this is so neat.. it has many different elements in a wide variety of way shapes maybe but a kind of protest in sound very good.
Love it. So relaxing.
nice work here--

a very intense drone - I like the solo guitar work a lot.
and I love this song!
thanks for the comment.
Awesome! I love your fretless work!
love the sound of your synth here - reminds me lot of the old CS-10 I once had a very long time ago. http://www.vintagesynth.com/yamaha/cs10.php
Thank you for the comments. I don't often comment here anymore but I do want to answer your Rhodes question. I believe Ben uses a Yamaha Motif. The clarinets are real. I'd love to hear your new age version of Stairway - that would be grand!
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!
