Here it is! The weirdest tune I've ever worked on. This song is the complete result of a shared vision. Bluesman Jay and I began our discussions on this song on the 1st of the month. He wrote the organ intro real early on, on his own volition mind you. I had the idea for the music before it was "legal" to touch the fret board, and I didn't touch.
When i say it's weird I mean it. Even it's arrangement is so off. I got to play with toys which is always good. The sounds in there are all from the kid's room. Something that couldn't have happened if I didn't do my vocals @ home, which i never do by the way. We did use the shop of course. After Jay recorded the organ part He made an appointment to get his haircut. Jay programed the drums at the shop while I worked and then we laid down the acoustic guitars. It went pretty smooth except the for the invasion of man sized farm animals.
Jay laid down the Electric @ home while I laid down the bass @ the shop. I went with a fretless tone after reading the Jaco biography and it fits perfect. I came home for the vocals and that's where I put in the sounds of a burger king toy, a talking baseball bat (GO SOX!!!!), and Darth F*cking Vader! The best part of all is Lennon and Riley nailed their part. I'm really excited about this one. We had fun doing it and I had fun living it...October i mean. The Red Sox won the world series...Ya Heard!
Congrats Pendragons
