Day of the Dead Playlist

this song is from Dock of the Bus Stop, our first release. Most of our songs were pretty serious, but we did have a fun side.    

01 Pink Dots From Mars

We recorded this at Duquesne University, they had recently added a sound design major. We were Brian Cobb's class project. The songs came out well, and were the backbone of the Something Invincible release.

Magnet of Bad Luck

This is a live version we recorded ourselves. A version made it onto our first release. This is the entire unedited version.

Live From the Chesterfield

Smokestack Lightning (LIve)

This song is from the Welfare Dub release and is one of the most balls out tunes we played. Fast, raw and ripping, it gets straight to the point and shreds until the end.

The Welfare Dub

Night Silence (Studio Version)

This song was originally released on the Welfare Dub Cassette. It is the title track of the remastered EP on iTunes and Amazon under the band name Thin White Line. With the opening lines, "Love and emotion begone. History repeats itself if we wait to long..." it's as pertinent now as it was 20 years ago. Another great Robert Porter song.

Superman and That Girl

This is from our last sessions at the basement studio in Hazelwood. This has Toby Houser on bass, and Jeff Flaherty on guitar. It is on the Something Invincible release. I always think that apart from the beautiful metaphors, there is also the hidden pain of Bob's ongoing fight with The cancer that came from his service in Vietnam. As I look back now, I wonder what we fought for, something I'm afraid I people 40 years from now will wonder about our actions today. Peace    
Released on the 7th anniversary of Robert Porter's Death

Watch That Pain

This is Bob Porter's signature version of this Otis Redding tune. Many have tried, but few have made it their own the way Bob did. Wheteher ending the set, or ending the evening's performance, this song made it into almost every show's set list. I post this for the anniversary of his birth, to honor his memory and all the birthdays that we shared.

Live from Somewhere

Dock of the Bay

Our best produced video was to this song. Live it was usually a 15+ minute epic jam that kept people on the floor. Good Times.

Clap Track

This features recordings from bands I've played in over the years. New material is in the future. Groups include Thin White Line, Eraserhead and Kitsch.
