Frighteningly fast... how does the brain get the message to the fingers that quick! lol
Cool tune, haven't heard the original, yours rocks though. Buckethead is something else.

Jason, do you have a main guitar? Curious as to what it is... Some aeriously fantastic disciplined shredding here. I'll never get there myself, but I appreciate the talent and work to get to that level.
Crazy stuff!
Just a silly song I made up based on the title of an Accept song. I like Accept and was listening to one of their albums the other day and later when I went to record something the title "Flash Rockin' Man" was in my head and I just used that…

I feel you take to best of the old shred guitar days, lets say of the late 80's and early 90's when guys still played lead guitar, and do something unique with it. Are you familiar with the old Shrapnel Records label? I forget all those players now... Marty Freidmen, Greg Howe, Ritchie Kotsen? You remind me of those days, and I listened to all that on vinyl only!

Sure, this does the trick. Got that cool Rob Zombie thing going on with the voice but the guitars are a bit groovier. Of course well done as always, but I really like the guitar riff at the beginning. Cool.
Got the basic idea for this from Keith Wyatt's Guitar World column (Talkin' Blues, Feb 2014) in which he discusses some of guitarist Grady Martin's work.
In an online course on Einstein's miracle year of 1905 we had to do a creative project and I was going to submit this but never did. Hope you think it's funny.
Didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped (my left forearm was burning like hell after each take). After the acoustic version, there's a distorted version, but the tapped harmonics at the beginning sound pretty crappy with distortion. I also added…

A piece of music written during the tumult of grad school applications. The idea is for the saxophone and drums to be in rhythmic opposition for the majority of the written segments. The piece is in 9/8 and centered around minor 7ths and tritones.
I Love the fact that No man is an Island.
These Guys Made me a Very Happy man By covering one of my songs.
I am Still Over the Moon!!!
Thanks Bro's!!!!!
I recorded the vocals on this about 14 years ago. An amazing pianist friend of mine from Europe, G.Longabardi, played the piano. Jonathan Sacks from California flew to Texas to co-write the music. If you're out there somewhere Jonathan, contact…
One day my husband was describing someone as a floosie galore. First I cracked up; then I wrote this song. Do you think I have to share royalties with him? :) I recorded all the vocal parts on this several years ago at Boyd Recording Studio…
I recorded this one to a dimming flashlight on the 25th after a windstorm took out my power. I couldn't see the lyrics anymore so I ad libbed and hummed the rest out. My recording device is battery operated, which is cool.
This predicament…
Another one from the dusty special price bin! It started off as a Pilot cover, but it didn't end up that way.
Dave Berry added the excellent tele solos and the crazy cool noises at the end. Thanks bro, you rock!
I spent more time on this…
A little scratch track from a few months ago. A song about the trials and tribulations of being 11 years old. Watching Six Million Dollar Man, dodging bullies and pretending our bicycles were Harleys.
I was at a friends house and saw a little…
Not originally intended as an acoustic song...but I couldn't get the big riff at the end to sound right with big distorted guitars, and then I realized on acoustics it might sound like it had a little Days Of The New influence.
Track 9 from…
Deadlines, freeways, appointments, things to do lists, expectations, getting older, not enough hours in the day to get everything done? ..... make each day and moment count! Thanks to Dave Matthews for a lick I threw in there. Enjoy!
Mining the archives a bit. This is an alternate take of my "Jimi Jam" from a couple of years ago. Live to 2 tracks with the Jamman. Really only sounds OK when cranked up loud enough that your eardrums threaten to meet in the middle. LOL!!
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
Kind of a Sonic Youth version of the old folk tune. This was with my band Lincoln The Chain. Our vision was to create new and weird versions of tunes from the old timey days. Traveling music for post apocalyptic underground railroad...
All of creation is conspiring to shower you with blessings, right? Right. But not all of those blessings are sweet and delightful. Let's talk about the other kinds.
The song is part of the soundtrack from my book, "PRONOIA Is the Antidote for…
