Since my main focus for producing music right now is the band (see link below), I'm offering to my friends on MySpace something totally unique: a weekly raw track, unproduced, unfettered by instrumentation / ornamentation, save me and my guitar.
The title of the collection will be, "F Posterity."
So each week, the bottom song on my profile playlist will rotate with something totally raw. Sometimes covers, sometimes demos, maybe sometimes a screamo angst piano ballad (on acoustic guitar).
They'll be free for download, so if you collect them all, you win!! But you don't win anything.
These are not polished. On the first track, available now, I play "Sunday Street", a song written by one of my heroes, Dave Van Ronk. You'll note I forgot the third verse (twice), which goes
So enjoy these downloads. Personally, I can't get enough of the raw edge of a performer accompanying themselves with their instrument de choix, and it's probably why I love Van Ronk so much, and early Dylan. I'm more apt to buy an album of demos than the label release, by anyone from John Lennon to Roky Ericson. Now I've got to get that "Personal File" collection by the man in black. Man, that stuff's good.
If you're not into the unpolished stuff, you can check out my band below. We should have an album out sometime late summer.

My hands are shakin' and I ain't feeling wellI love Dave Van Ronk's music. He was a master of interpretation, to say nothing of being a prime mover in the folk scare of the sixties, as well as a self-proclaimed insufferable jazz snob. But he's known as a folk singer.
From drinking king kong liquor and cheap muscatell
A little bit of bourbon and breakfast in bed
Six million dollars can raise the dead
Just me and the other elite
Raising high-class hell up on Sunday Street
So enjoy these downloads.
