This is an excerpt from a rehearsal dated Dec. 1, 2014, for our NYE show at Atwood's featuring Boubacar Diabate and friends. The rehearsal took place in the basement of Bouba's apartment building, and was recorded on Jeff Allison's trusty pal "Wally" --  his Tascam DR100 Mk II mini-recorder. Playing on this track are Boubacar on guitar and vocals, Dana on alto and baritone saxes, Jerome on a pared down drum kit and Jeff Allison on percussion. I believe Bouba's buddy/manager Mateja Miljacki stepped in on a big ol' drum from Mali, later on in the session. Enjoy! --JL

Tanzania with Boubacar Diabate

Dana Colley: vocals, baritone saxophone, electric baritone sax.
Jerome Deupree: drums
Jeremy Lyons: 2-string slide bass
Recorded at Hi N Dry (Armory Building), Somerville; ods at Dana's 3rd Floor. Mixed by Jon Taft; mastered by Jon Taft at the JT Audio Mix Room. Committed to tape by Rob Gonnella at New Alliance East Mastering. Cover art by Dana Colley; CD design by Laura Céré. Originally released in 2010. 

This is our version of a classic Morphine tune, sung by Dana Colley on an album we put out in 2010, only a year into this project. We were a little confused about our identity, and both the band and the album went by two different names: "Members of Morphine with/and Jeremy Lyons" and the succinct and to the point "The Ever Expanding Elastic Waste Band." 
Yeah.
Well, it all worked out in the end; we got to stay under the radar (not exactly on purpose) while we figured out what exactly we could do. 
This track is one of my personal favorites from the album. -- JL

Members of Morphine with Jeremy Lyons

Let's Take a Trip Together (by Mark Sandman)

Inspired by a new release by Fiona Apple and then following a thread down a rabbit hole is all I can say about this.

Rest In Peace Mark Sandman.

Augie Jr & the Big Mess live on the street 1992 (Jackson Sq or Royal St)

The Big Mess Blues Band was playing on the streets of New Orleans from the early 80s to the mid 2000s (sometimes under alternate band names). It centered around Augie Rodola Jr but in his absence was often led by other members, who were an ever-changing group totaling around 50 musicians over the years. Notables included “Washboard” Lissa Driscoll, Pablo Winfrey, Jeff Zima, Butch Trivette, Steve Lewins, Andy Kaufman, Manny Renov, Jerry Barbarin Anderson, Paul Kemnitz, Randy Torgerson, Mickey Bones, Tommy Oliver, Alan Rigg, Tommy Ray, Sarabeth “Wildflower” Peters, Corey Harris, Kenny Holladay, Scott Kirby, Bobby Lewis, John Duff and Jeremy Lyons. Augie died of cirrhosis of the liver in (or around) 2012. Lissa and Kenny have also since passed, as well as several other members. With few exceptions over the years the Big Mess played exclusively on the streets of New Orleans’ French Quarter. Whether this was entirely by their choice or by happenstance is perhaps up to the debate, but the band had a strict philosophy of doing whatever the hell they felt like at the moment. So. Perhaps not completely house trained. This is a tribute account to the Big Mess as well as associated acts, such as Butch Trivette, Jeremy Lyons, Lissa Driscoll and Kenny Holladay.
