Keller Williams

This song by Morphine is called “Buena.” The beauty of Morphine (the band) is the instrumentation, which includes the bari sax, drums and two string bass. The tragedy of Morphine is that the lead dude died during the performance of a song on stage.  What a way to go. The band had a spooky, cool sound that has not since been replicated. This version of “Buena” has Toby Fairchild on drums, Jay Starling on keys, and me on bass. It slightly strays away from the original version in the jazz/funk department, but I tried to retain the spookiness.  This was from the “Added Bonus” holiday run at the Norva in Norfolk, VA on December 29, 2009.  Enjoy

Eyes of The World (Garcia, Hunter Ice Nine Publishing) Feat: John Morgan Kimock drums, Steve Kimock guitar, Fareed Haque guitar, and Lou Gosain on harmonies and the soundboard. He recorded this as well . This version of this track is not about the words. Because I got them way wrong. So much so, that normally, I wouldn't release such a track. This release is all about the jam. John Morgan Kimock on drums, his father Steve Kimock on guitar (on the right side) and Fareed Haque also on guitar(on the left side) with me on bass. As the story goes, a casino came to town and part of their deal with the city was to fix up this area of town. An old steel mill responsible for making the steal that erected the skyscrapers and bridges that we see everyday. It’s giant. Massive. And now abandoned with big weed tress growing out it. The rust making the whole massive structure look a maroonish brown. The original idea was to paint the place, but instead they simply placed colored lights in different positions making it look super cool at night. The opening few minuets of Transformers 2 was shot there.The casino folks came in and made an incredible amphitheater as well as an indoor music venue/movie theater with full view of the massive steal mill. The Kimock family is indigenous to the area. Steve's father actually worked at the mill and expected Steve to work there too. As soon as Steve was old enough, he split for California and the rest is history. He now lives back there and I was grateful to have him sit in, as he is one of my guitar gods. Fareed was at the fest as well so I invited him up as he is another one of my guitar hero’s.Both are on my "Dream" record. I was playing bass as these two guitar geniuses were on either side of me like some kind of wet, musical dream. Just simply ignore the blown words and botched bass lines and focus on the solos. That's what I was doing. Hence the botched words and whack bass lines.

Pepper By The Butthole Surfers. (Written by Coffey, Haynes, Walthall. Publishing by Latino Buggerveil Music). 

Lake Tahoe, NV Bluegrass And Beyond -  Sand Harbor Incline Village

This venue is one of a kind. Built into the side of a sand dune type of hill with the lake as the back drop. The beach is about 12 paces from the back stage. The water was cold, clear, and refreshing. The vibe was positive and I was happy to be alive. 

Please Enjoy.

w/ Keller Williams 'Moondance Jam' at The Mishawaka

This is the post-buena jam, which I'm lovingly calling "Aftergood".  It’s in a different key on a different bass.  So, it’s...  different.  It was recorded towards the end of the Guitar Store Tour at Humboldt Brews in Arcata, California.  I love California.  Humboldt County is a very special place to me.  I always feel special there.  The people there are special.  They can do special things…  with their minds.  Download, Jam and Enjoy.

This version of Dave Brubeck's "Take Five" was recorded at Mississippi Nights in St. Louis, MO on October 20, 2001.  This run of 11 shows in 12 nights was a co-bill with Charlie Hunter.  What made it unusual was the unknown opener (at the time)....Norah Jones.  She was (and probably still is) cool.

RIP Dave Brubeck
