Since filkertom was wishing Johnny a Happy Birthday

This is my favorite song about Johnny Cash, from Stan Ridgway's Black Diamond CD

( Luther Played Guitar )

Recording

I'm down here working on tracks. I just laid down a guitar track for Only Coffee House In Town.

And ...

I laid down drum tracks. I may have mentioned that my friend John had brought his electronic set down to work. It's sitting right next to all my gear.

I suck as a drummer, I sucked as a drummer even when I called myself a drummer.

But the track I just laid down dosn't sound too bad.

More later

Why ???

Do I occasionally think I can play lead guitar ... and then why does it always sound better when the recorder is off ???

And the super secret track

I did a guitar/vocal/drum take on the Super Secret Marscon Will Commit Much Pain To The Audience (and one person in particular) Track ... it's wrong ... very very wrong

A nice take on Nice Guys that I think I might keep.

Had a good day recording ...

A good audience helps so much

Only Coffee House In Town - I think I mentioned that I rewrote it a bit. I have it in my head now.
Low Self Esteem Talking Blues
Standards
Bang My Bald Spot - Pete complained last week that I went too short. So I stretched out this week, so he felt the need to bug me mid-song about my telling stories ... it was darn funny
How Can I Miss You?

The audience listened a lot, laughed a lot. It was a nice night.

I'm ready for next week.
