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
Normal IL - tantalizing close to Urbana where musicians are turned to the darkside of microtonality. Come, let me show you the power of a 19 note per octave guitar! Seriously - if you are interested at all you may want to make the drive.
Along with her magnificent harmonizing vocal tracks, Inge sent me one track which was crashed by her 2-year old son Willem. He pretty much takes over the whole operation at about 3:00.
In the background you can hear the original rough vocals…
I Got the Idea for this tune when I left Geir at Stanstead Airport.
Recorded it Last night after a Gig....
For the Folk Fest...

Norm set me these drums for Dancing on my own a while back but Reg went and dumped the file so we couldn't use them. So i'm using them now, while Reg gets Gone.........Thanks Norm
Chris sent this track to me earlier today with the request that I add some percussion to it.
I had something different in mind.
After the first take I was afraid to return it to him, fearing that he would convert it to 23 edo or something…
I heard this as I let the IF playlist roll doing other things - this is really great! I love the very classic slide sound you have here and the piece is very bluesy cool.
Reg has this recurring dream of his fantasy women but she is always out of reach...........Thanks to Tess for letting me play with her tune.

ohhh I didn't see you had uploaded this! To answer your question - it was a Yamaha - can't remember the model - it had 3 pedals - I agree about the low end but the high end was really weak in my opinion.
Added a little more to this nice little change of strumming patterns played as an excuse to write a little love song.
I FOUND LOVE
You know I love you more than I
Ever thought one simple man could
You know I need you more than I
Ever…

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--

like the indie vibe on this one!
beautiful piece!
nice jazzy number!
I love Inge's voice! - so rich. BTW - what guitar do you play - it sounds quite nice. A very good tune you both put together here.
I love your voice in this. Reminiscent of Gordon Lightfoot.
this is quite good. could I write music for it?
this is a great combination!!
interesting piece!
rockin' Reg and Norm - nice collaboration. Good combination if instruments.
loving the harp. this was a good choice!
I heard this as I let the IF playlist roll doing other things - this is really great! I love the very classic slide sound you have here and the piece is very bluesy cool.
Nice work - a good combination.
wow! this harp work sounds great!!! Unfortunately the guitar pictured isn't the one in the recording (we'll get to that tomorrow)
You made it into a classical piece - I love that. Great work Richard!
ohhh I didn't see you had uploaded this! To answer your question - it was a Yamaha - can't remember the model - it had 3 pedals - I agree about the low end but the high end was really weak in my opinion.
the scope of this is totally impressive
one of my favorite songs - done really well!
Beautiful Richard!!
this is an excellent song!
