Michael Franks has been a favorite of mine for decades. 

This song, "Eggplant", was the first song I ever heard.  Mr. Franks' work on this classic LP, "The Art of Tea", is superb!!!

I play this song privately a lot.  I decided to record it today on my home 32-track studio.  I've taken a few artistic liberties, but have remained faithful to the original song. 

Instrumentation: 
Jazz drum programming/ Bass guitar/ Acoustic Taylor Guitar tracks/Electric Piano/Vocals. 

This is 100% Michael Franks' work.  NOT MINE.  Just a tribute to him.
