When I was 18-ish, and stinking drunk, my girlfriend told me to stuff a sock in it, and locked the door behind me. Instead of howling like a stray outside the apartment, I walked almost five hours in cold drizzle to my mom's digs. By the time I got there, I was worn absolutely ragged and she had already left for work. Soaked through and totally defeated, I dug out some crappy guitars I had left there and laid down this out-of-tune, wavering-time, failed Doo-Wop tune. I recorded it using two cassette decks, dubbing from one to the other, adding a new track with each dub. It's pretty comical really, I can still feel the ache in my body from stumbling, shitfaced, a dozen miles through the soggy south shore. Definitely not my best work, but figured I'd share anyway. :)

TAKE ME BACK

Song idea from some time in the eighties. I miss that P-Bass.

Brain 3 - Base - Halifax 2

Bitchin' Good Tune Idea

A NICE LITTLE SONG IDEA FROM THE LATE 80'S

FPOG - Grungy Bottom

Many decades ago, the amazing and multifaceted David Blair spent a short while crashing in my home town before settling in Detroit. At the time, he was just learning the basics of guitar. His innate musicianship and poetic prowess took us all by surprise. Even he was a little wowed. Digging through my stuff recently, I found a boom-box recording of a song of his from then. The cassette is labeled only “David Blair”, but the lyric “My One True Companion” stands out as a good choice for a title. His life cut terribly short, I was thinking it would be lovely tribute if people made remixes and reworks of this fantastic and almost-lost track. Please let me know if you decide to participate. Be creative, respectful and have fun! I’ll make a playlist of all the takes. Thanks!
