It's All The Same To Me

Here for your listening pleasure is another Jay classic. This song is his philosophy on life. Complete and utter disinterest. I (half)kid. It's a cool tune that when I first heard it, didn't have the many layers the end result has. We got together and laid down his guitar, worked out the vocal arrangement and overall familiarized ourselves with the song.
My family and I took vacation. Jay was left with no Craig to talk to. No Craig to share with. No Craig to enjoy. This drove him to madness so he began incessantly laying down overdubs. This gave the song a little bit of a zydeco vibe. Coming back from a great vacation where the kids and I made our blues festival debut Jay was eager to get me on the track. With the deadline upon us I recorded my bass and vocals. I sent it back to Jay, he did his vocals and a hit was born.
Jay said he already started a song for next month. That's how it goes with writing. Once the door is open they just keep coming. That was the original hope for the Calendar Project. That I would be able to kick that door open. It's cool seeing it work for Jay now. He's got an album of originals in the works so I'm glad we got him while he's hot. I better start writing something if I want to get another song in before the project comes to end...
