I pulled my Decade songbook out of storage a few months back and have been thinking about a Neil Young cover.  Somehow I got sidetracked this week and ended up on a performance Neil did with Devo of Hey Hey, My My (Into The Black).  I won't bore you with a history lesson but I will say that if Neil decided to spend almost 10 minutes of Human Highway on the performance below, it must have meant something to him at the time.  Plus it's really fun to play!

Words and music by Neil Young/Jeff Blackburn/Devo/Crazy Horse.

Hey Hey, My My (Into The Black) (Neil Young & Crazy Horse/Devo)

how goodwill gonna charge retail value for a crappy yamaha keyboard.wav

So now that I've finally opened up this creative faucet, the built-up backpressure released in a torrent of various musical ideas that I've funneled into this track. The lyrics this month might be a little cringe in hindsight but it's MY art and it can as *melodramatic* as I want it to be!!

refreshing...

Since it is my birthday month, I am being a bit indulgent for March's monthly track by covering one of my favorite bands, Yard Act. Apologies for wrecking your song, gents.

The "Woke up at 5am..." bridge is an AcidHorn original.

Songs referenced:
"Rich" by Yard Act
"Blindness" by The Fall
"Brilliant Corners" by Thelonious Monk
"Megalovania" by Toby Fox
"The Evil Giygas Attacks!" by Keiichi Suzuki and Hirokazu Tanaka

your world

For a chunk of April's track, I took inspiration from the chord changes of Michael Guy Bowman's lovely song "Julia Verne."  Put so much effort making the backing soundtrack sound nice only just to yap all over it. But didn't have much time to polish this one up.  This monthly track challenge I gave myself means I have to put my "pencil down" at the end of every month.  It's pretty scrappy this time around -- had to record all the vocals tonight (sorry neighbors!).  But I hope you find this one at least interesting.  Maybe even fun??

Other musical references lovingly included are:
"Beatdown" by Curt Blakeslee
"Showtime" by Michael Brown

had very little time to make a song this month, so threw this one together in two nights. Hope you like it -- its... different.
