the podcast known as C-Realm has seen fit to feature in its 200th episode some music featuring Andrew Woods (Neon Brown, Woodland Acoustic Orchestra) and myself. Andrew sent me some music via interweb and I went and sang all over it and then he did something else to it and now you can dig it here:

Woody Frank (guitar), Evan Strauss (bass), Scott Keil (drums), 5-Track (guitar and sing)

plus guests Jym “The Snake” Fahey (harmonica, sing), Cricket DeManuel (sing), and the mysterious Lady Die (sing on Love Buzz etc)

Longtime followers will understand that having Woody and Evan at a show is significant and awesome … some may recall certain Seattle Glass Goblins configurations, and/or nights and nights of Snoose Junction overload, let alone Neon Brown Presents / Woodlands Acoustic Orchestra / Juggler’s Challenge. (Mayhem at the Chai House, yo…) Not to mention VARIETY PACK!!

This was the first killer house party that I have encountered in the wicked and inhospitable environs of Los Angeles. Props to Amanda and Matthew for supplying the necessary good vibes to make it a reality. We had plans to hold this shindig at WHERE but WHERE is having trouble, so Amanda said, “Let’s have it in the basement! I’ll make grilled cheese!” and lo, it came to pass.

I’m very psyched about this recording, because I LOVE 2 guitars, bass, drums … We got to play some songs that I don’t usually get to play (The Gypsy’s Curse, Tacoma Motel) and we got to give Cricket a proper rocknroll band for a song or two and we got to explore the outer reaches of space and time. Dig it…

here’s to the next one
