Name: 03 - Walking On A Line (1988 4-Track Cassette) by Brian Lichty
Duration: 1 min 48 s
Description: This is a basement recording from 1988 that was ripped off of a wobbly cassette tape. It was originally recorded on a Tascam 4-track tape recorder and duped to 100's of cassettes that we tried to sell. Luckily (I guess), a few made it to the digital age and it's now preserved for all to enjoy! :)

One of my faves that never made it to the top of the pile or was officially released. It has DB on bass which is awesome, some great guitar tones, the vocal and harmonies are tight, an uplifting outtro, even TV samples from the 2015-2016 presidential election campaign. But as much as I liked all of that, it was still missing something. But here it is!

Wimps Outtake - La La La w/ David Burroughs on Bass (2015)

I like this one! Especially the modal change in the chorus. But I never did a final or decent mix - and there are barely any lyrics. It could have also used a lull or little change in the middle.

One night PT Sevin (East is East) came by the house and stayed to the wee hours of the morning and together with CK on guitar and me on bass and drums, we made this. I love this song. Everything about it - how there really isnt a chorus or typical verse structure, the guitar solo is at the end. PT just sat there with his reading glasses on with a lyric book and mic and was just knocking that shit down.

Very early track. We were (and still are) just understanding how this recording thing works, but the result was nice, no real lyrics, but it's still one of our favorites. As always with the wimps, an economy of chords (just a few, but played in a different order throughout).  share and let us know!

And I...

I used to play in several bands. Some of my stuff is here, most of it is not. Check out Baltic Avenue on Spotify for some heavy '90s waltz or Wimps and Machos on Spotify/Soundcloud for more complete, polished Wimps tracks.
