This started out as just a drum line that Irockus put up on another site, and we kept the drum line. This is how you force something over a drum line...lol

I put some BB stuff up and Herman from New Jersey sang some stuff off the top of his head. I have no idea what Herman sang as we did not write the words. No mixing or messin around..lol
I was going to play some lead guitar and create an ending but I faded at measure 48…lol

Thanks guys. This is not something I would like to do every day but sometimes it is fun.

The internet has exposed me to many people and things I would not have been exposed to otherwise. I get ask to play on collaborations of styles of music I hardly know exist, must less have any real skill in dealing with. It is often a very frustrating experience basically because the lack of a way to communicate.

I try not to be too judgmental about what it sounds like. There are zillions of people who are making “music” that I don’t understand and am not attracted to. They want to be part of the process and interact with other people. I think it is important to give some help to people who ask for help even when they have no real idea of what they are asking for.

Often someone will play a group of totally unrelated chords and then ask me and others to make a song from that chord progression without changing it or write some unrelated words and ask for one of us to sing it.

Well…lol…the outcome is generally less than great, but it did give that person the feeling of being part of creating something. There is far too much exclusion in this world and far too little inclusion.

Cheers,

Billy

A really nice jam. I would like to hear this one recorded and mixed again. I think that it has a lot of potential.

As I've written in the song messages, I've noticed
a David Bowie's style in this song.

Nice melody.
