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…

Made for the ImprovFriday video event. The CT scan is of me. This is in 17 notes per octave. Full quality 90 megabyte video here: http://clones.soonlabel.com/public/video/ct-scan2.wmv
