Re: Bass pedals Mo' better bass tone

Just unleashed today, more songs about rumor mills, Irwin Allen, moonshine and cranky old lawn-obsessed codgers https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nXRi7-OYTfyYaKuimljDD6IZhBII3rDcw

A recent single I put out, a cover of "Bears" originally done by The Fastest Group Alive, The Royal Guardsmen and Quicksilver Messenger Service

https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/talktobears And the bear has emerged from its cave at last. For the first time in almost 10 years I have done some new music, this time in an eclectic funk/rock style with biting lyrics on subjects ranging from AMTRAK to lone desert phone booths, sociopaths, amateur...

Just finished up this little tune about the Mojave desert phone booth. Comments definitely welcome.

Re: Need Recommendations for a Desktop MIDI Keyboard Thank you everyone for your valuable input. I wound up buying this Alesis V25 with USB MIDI and full size keys. $89 well spent for me. NegativeEase, you described exactly how I needed it to function. Since I don't have any external modules...

Calling on the forum's collective wisdom. I'm looking for a 25-32 key desktop size MIDI controller for recording that doesn't cost a king's ransom. I have an 88 key weighted beast but due to relatively recent knee replacement surgery, I can't do any real heavy lifting.

CIRCLED UP BOWLING Circled up in the basement Bowling to the Brecker Brothers Wondering if there were others V1) They'd sneak up on a question Some say it was just dumb luck Talk about the miracle pills Mix with water, power a truck Wondered if the moon was real at all Aliens showing slides...

Having a serious prolific streak over the last few months, did have about a month's pause due to having knee replacement surgery in January. In any case here's a small sampling of I've been brewing with the idea of eventually releasing a couple EP's of my sardonic musings. Staring Stanley here...

Post 'em here, your first axe(s) and such that got you on your way to stardom, real or imagined A collage of mine is attached, first was the Harmony Bobkat @ the upper left, played through a Westinghouse reel to reel deck (badass tube overdrive), then a Univox Coily (their ES335 knockoff) and a...

Long story shot, after my muse has been hibernating for some time, I've rediscovered the urge to write and play music again. This time, I'm venturing into the realm of acoustic steel sting guitar, sparked by a generous gift from a good friend of a Yamaha acoustic-electric axe (APX500II). Loving...

It Takes A Village to Raise An Idiot (me playing everything except drums) Akron Needs Tires with my improv trio Burgess Penguin, live The Theme Song to a non-existent TV show, Police Bear And for gits and shiggles, my impression of William Shatner doing Alice Cooper's "Ballad of Dwight Fry"

Can anybody ID this particular axe that John Scofield's playing here, keeping in mind it's 1976. It doesn't look like a Les Paul or L-6S. Carvin maybe? ReGGPNQpz0o

Anyone here own or play any of Kevin Seibold's rather unique creations? www.krappyguitars.com You gotta love a luthier who doesn't take himself too seriously, makes some fun novelty instruments but can also turn out some serious ones (see the Touch Guitar section). As for me, I'm now taking...

Over a couple nights, I put together this video for a hilarious DK's song, "Your Emotions": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9r3ptY_8mVY
