I've listened to some of your other stuff too, really great sound. Love the vocal effect and the instrumental wash. Good stuff.

Cool song. Like something off White Light White Heat, but more melodic

cover of the Box Tops classic.  

I did all the parts including vocals.

The Letter

This is an audio recording of a blog article I wrote that went viral. 

This is an introspective approach to understanding why we fail and the battle between the struggle to survive and the quest to so something Amazing. It is hard hitting and will probably make you a little uncomfortable.

I'm freaking out in this pit
it's not so very lit.
Gotta start swimming around
Wanna be freedom bound

My Decisions are left behind
I think i’ve clouded my mind
It’s dimly lit in the surround
Wanna be freedom bound

I'm held down and oppressed
There's no time to even get stressed
The fear overtakes me now
to be free is that which i vow

CHORUS: moving ahead, flying instead
clearing the mind.
leaving the dark behind

Everyone's occupied.
They're all dried up.
We all gotta move.
There's nuthing to prove.

here now we approach the day
in the new age that arises
follow the shore along the bay
life offers new surprises

CHORUS: moving ahead, flying instead
clearing the mind.
leaving the dark behind

The unknown is the known.
Don't be a drone.
Let's build it up.
Let's build it up.

CHORUS: moving ahead, flying instead
clearing the mind.
leaving the dark behind

Some Other Time

Zen-Drivers' epic song about the freaky deakies you see at Walmart.

Walmartians

recorded this around 2002 in Los Angeles California on my 4 track Tascam machine.  It's raw and lofi and was buried for over 10 years in storage but I think it is pretty good for a demo.  Probably I'll rerecord it.

Tired (acoustic version)

Another one with my friend Clayton on my 4track tascam machine.  This one was recorded in Mesquite, Texas probably around 1995.  My brother played lead and rhythm guitar and harmonica, I think.  I played lead guitar and Clayton sings.  It's pretty bluesy and lofi.

Clayton Blues

This one's an oldie about relationships gone bad and learning the hard way.  It was recorded mainly improvised in a stream of consciousness way back in 2001-2002 in Los Angeles on a 4-track machine.  It is part of the Guittard Tapes, a group of tapes that have been lost for over 10 years and now recovered and released.

Girl's On Crack

This one is from the Guittard Tapes recorded around 2001.  I lost the version with the harmony vocals and found it in 2013.  Here it is!  Recorded in Los Angeles on a 4-track Tascam machine.

Getting There Is Not So Easy (with Harmonies)

This song is nothing without the wahwah pedal!  Did this with my brother Bob Guittard in 1994 on my 4-track Tascam machine in Dallas, Texas.  Bob plays the lead guitar and I play the background rhythm guitar.

Wah Wah Special

Posting more of my lo-fi works.  We are about to the end of my backlog!
