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.

Loving the sounds

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!)

Cool sounds.

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.

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

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

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--

one of my fav bowie songs - the first side of the album was superb. Like what you've done with this!

thanks for all of the work you and Norm did - it was a lot of fun!

beautiful

great song!!

I like to watch you conduct the synthesizers :-)

but who decides what is real? the dreamer or the dreamed? 2 vocoders? did you grab another microkorg?

Norm has a good ear and taste - this is truly awesome!

I really like this - I hope you don't mind I tried to add to it.

Hi John, Ediacaran Garden's mp3 is the default output of Sibelius composition software with their default guitar sound. I agree it sounds pretty good.

beautiful Richard - very beautiful.

and this is beautiful

cool vibe and story!

this could be in a music box

perhaps my favorite of the set - I like the melody

I hear something of Beethoven and Chopin in this - delicate introspection.

lovey - very soft candle light music.

This is really nice work - laid back and exotic. Very nice balance between the music and the percussion - tastefully done. Since I'm listening before the description went up I'm very curious who you collaborated with - they did a nice job on the music.

Beautiful - beautiful tone too.

one of my favorite Zep songs done right!

Were you get the wimmin? Ah, silly question ;-)
