My Pretty

About a Vietnam vet I knew. We took him to the American Lake Veterans Administration  hospital in Tacoma, Washington, and he was having PTSD flashbacks on the way. I felt his pain. It's also about the pain, marginalization, and rage we all feel.

Recorded in 2000/2001, for my LP "Blurry Visions, Vol. 1" this song playfully mixes Native American chanting with South Asian/Indian sitars and tabla drums... that why I called it Bombay, South Dakota.
This is from my first EP, "Blurry Visions, Vol 1," Released in 2001 on Runnin' Things Records. Rereleased in 2023, Blurry Guy Records.

Bombay South Dakota

These songs are really just lo-fi "work tapes." I wrote the songs, played all the instruments, and sang all the vocal lines. It ain't Rocket Surgery, buddy.
