Periodical acoustic podcast: “Alone” by me and “Love Song” by Phil Taylor/Unborn

Leave a reply

My site has been down for about a week, so this is posting late, but here is this week’s podcast.

I chose to play “Alone” off my album “Triad,” and my friend Phil Taylor talked me into covering one of his songs.  I chose “Love Song” from his album “Tales of Love or the Lack Thereof” (recorded both by Phil and his former band Unborn).

I had a few moments of hitting the mic / other background noise on this.  I’m not sure why, but just in case you hear it and wonder.  😉

As usual, it’s me on my acoustic — no editing, recorded on a Sony ICD-SX700 voice recorder.

Albeit I am not able to update everything I would like to update, here goes:

Poison Springs Records is official, and thus is officially my label. Also, Lucky Town is making a triumphant return as I played it for a new audience who loved it, and that makes me happy. Now, I am planning on producing professional CDs as early as mid-August, and because Lucky Town has always been so popular, I am going to rerecord It All Comes Out and Triad, to give them that more professional appeal. I also rerecorded drums and remastered Hell, and I am poring over doing the same for Heaven, but I feel like drums detract from its sound. Hopefully I can decide something soon.

Anyway, I am hoping for Unnatural to go on sale by September 1, with the other albums to follow as they are ready.

As for my other albums, they are still under production and are turning out nicely, although it is hard to tell with no real finished product to speak of. Since I was gone for a week, it has thrown off my ability to write lyrics somewhat, but I will get back into the swing of things soon enough. I am so happy with music at the moment that I can’t even feel bad about it. And it’s all thanks to my loyal readers ! I think …

And finally, sadly, Unborn is undergoing some turbulent times, but I will post an update when the dust has settled.

There’s not much to say regarding my personal workings, but in a current session with Unborn we took a little fun time to record an impromptu album just for kicks. Their drummer, Justin, couldn’t hang around for the recordings, but, someone _philled_ in and, as it turns it, it may have been one of the epic recording sessions of all time. I compiled it into part of my albums section for this page because it is just cool–something a little less pedantic than my usual stuff, and a hell of a lot more fun.

Anyway, the album is titled “The Abortion Prophecies” and has six tracks. The songs are on the album in the order they were recorded, and they are all single takes–no practicing or rehearsing at all (as if that weren’t obvious.) We wrote and recorded the whole album in a little under an hour. If the lyrics and lo-fis aren’t up already, they will be soon. Enjoy.
