Inspired by Moroccan Music
I watched the movie ‘Babel’ recently and there are some wonderful middle-eastern sounding guitar tracks in the soundtrack. I immediately picked up my trusty $30 acoustic beater guitar and banged out this track, inspired my the Sahara.
Updates
It’s 2 and a half months now without a car, and I’ve never felt better. I’m in shape, saving money, and shopping around for a vehicle.
I’ve updated the music page with some new jams for your listening pleasure, please enjoy: Music.
And a shout out to some friends of mine, the types of friends who I respect greatly and are always encouraging. You know, the best kind.

BHS plays MFC:
A friend of Jarred Pope (Drummer for Crosby & MFC) is the band leader over at Bakersfield High School, and he decided to work up a little Mother Funk Conspiracy into the program. In this video, around 6 minutes, the band breaks into ‘Hammbone Steaksauce’ from our last album. What a treat!
Also, here’s an mp3 from the Sabroso sessions earlier this month (with an intro on the upright):
Enjoy!
How good can you make a $30 guitar sound?
Here’s a song I wrote and recorded yesterday on a $30 piece of junk guitar. I kind of like the tone though.
I was supposed to be laying bass tracks on some new Crosby material, but I ended up screwing off all day.
A funny thing happened to me….
Ray Chang called me and told me that our regular friday gig at Steamers in Pismo Beach was cancelled this week. Apparently, “The restaurant was going to try something different”. Which was fine with me, that friday gig was starting to grow weary.
However, not 30 minutes later, I get a call from Sonny Wright, jazz vocalist. She says, “Would you like to play drums friday night at Steamers?” Their normal drummer couldn’t make it, and I had recently played a gig on drums with Joe Duran, the bass player who plays with Sonny. He dug my style and told Sonny that I could hang.
So I had a blast. And I hung in there, swinging, latin, funk. Good times.
And audio from the recording session two weeks ago. Because there are some edits to be made, I’ve just highlighted my own playing in these cuts. I don’t want to put someone else’s unfinished audio up on the internet. So that’s my excuse for being completely narcissistic and just putting up my bass solos….
‘06 Music Compilation mp3s
Every year’s end I create a compilation CD of the best music I’ve been involved with over the course of the year. I Make about a hundred copies and give them out to every one I know for Christmas. It’s a little narcissistic I know, but people really seem to enjoy it. I’ve been doing it for the last 4 years in a row and this year is one of the best in my humble opinion.
So here’s download links to the mp3s of this compilation for those of you who I haven’t given a physical copy to yet.
Enjoy.
