YEAH! Homage to one of my favorite bands of all time. Ever. Timeless, weird, awesome, brilliant. And the original video - if you don't know Homestar Runner, I don't know what to say. But go see the original site while it's in the original Flash. That site got me through so good times and a close friend / mentor who passed a few years ago introduced me to it.

This is my first song with an actual bass line on the new Ibanez. It's got tambo, bongos, the bass, the geetar (with effect and without), piano, shaker, yeah's, harmonies, melodies, the barely audible washing machine somewhere in there because I forgot to close the door. Recording took 2 weeks as I got through the flu and a companion sinus infection.

Experimental Film (TMBG Cover, 2019)

I've wanted to cover this for a really long time. Both of me I guess. I slowed down the tempo just a little, dropped in some bass and a couple chordie tracks. The opening and closing picking was easy stuff, and my voice and my capo found a comfortable spot in the neighborhood of fret #6. 

More Simon & Garfunkel on the way! Along with some of my own variations of songs on fret 6.

Sound of Silence (Simon & Garfunkel Cover, 2019)

This was by far my favorite Schoolhouse Rock song from the multiplication series. It was a simpler time, educational cartoons were probably not considered "fun", but I'm hoping even fellow non-math nerds have happy memories of this. Or maybe the Blind Melon cover?  

This became a half-day project after randomly just singing it one night. I threw in the towel on keeping these covers organic and went MIDI to get some percussion, a nice Wurlitzer / electronic piano, and marimba that was similar, but not too close to the original. It's the first time I've ever hooked up the MIDI cables to my ancient Yamaha PSR-240, turned the keyboard's sound all the way down, and discovered a world of simulated instruments that has drastically improved since I first encountered MIDI songs in the 90s. Multiple guitar tracks featured, harmonies (because harmony), and yeah, I guess I gave the maracas, egg shaker, and tambo a break.

Three Is a Magic Number (Bob Borough/Schoolhouse Rock cover, 2019)

Hey, I just really loved the original. No cover between 1972 and today comes close. Homage, credit, and a bow to Johnny Nash for this underrated song. Why underrated? I mean, it reached #1 on the charts in the US and several countries when it was released. But I don't hear enough of it. Just love this song. Enjoy my cover.

I Can See Clearly Now (Johnny Nash cover, 2019)

I worked on this for way too long, so yes, TMBG cover with some harpsichord.

Birdhouse in Your Soul (TMBG cover, 2019)

Come On Eileen // Dexy's Midnight Runners cover by EB (2020)

Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da // Beatles cover by EB (2020)

Octopus' Garden // Beatles cover by EB (2020)

Faithful tribute cover to ELO's Mr. Blue Sky. I've been singing this for years and finally committed to producing a full-on cover. You might recognize this from the beginning of Guardians of the Galaxy 2 - a song worthy of Groot just taking a leisurely walk while his colleagues battle a bunch of flying enemies and a giant tentacled space monster.
