I'm surprised no one has written down the lyrics to Bark Out Thunder Roar Out Lightning. Beautiful fusion of spoken word poetry in the vein of Gil Scott-Heron, chanting, West African music, Southern blues, jazz: https://chiefadjuah.bandcamp.com/track/bark-out-thunder-roar-out-lightning

Retro project.

First shot at making a small wooden box, this for a 4-CD blues/gospel mix I intend to give as a gift to someone who still enjoys the format.

Joints are mitred and pinned as can be seen if you look closely.

CD working title: 'Blues & Pews'

(See replies for further developments & stay tuned; I'll post the playlist on completion. After that: a series on my fave 'fuck corporate waste' project'.)

A small project strewn over a kitchen counter. Two blue joint clamps on a hardwood cutting board holding work in progress (0.25" 1.5" x 5.0" pine), a distinctive yellow and black drill, a red jar cap, a bottle of wood glue, materials and offcuts, the handle of a mitre saw, a ruled grey self-healing cutting pad below all.

I'm not, in any way, shape or form a photographer but here are some shots 😆

Autumn vibes, the picture was taken in a Park. The ground is covered in autumn coloured leaves. The whole park is filled with a hazy sky, light is trying to fight it's way through. Trees are partially green and their leaves are starting to turn yellow.

Crisp air, misty grounds. The mist is laying on top of a green pasture. Light is making it's way into the day and piercing through what seems like marshmallow thick clouds, stretching the sky. The sky/clouds are gray/blue-ish with the sun peeping through. The sun rising is giving a hue of yellow, orange, red and pink seeping into the gray/blue part of the sky

I’m not here to hunt rabbits…

A whole community of musicians from Botswana playing guitar in a way most of us have never thought possible… and they’re not here to hunt rabbits…

A community of African country blues masters with a totally original technique. For one thing; the left hand reaches up and over the neck of the guitar, instead of […]

Got my new blues tune up. Guitars are Telecaster (L) and Danelectro 59M through the EHX B9 organ pedal (R). Bass is Fender p-bass. Harp is Hohner Special 20 B flat. I’m capo’d at the first fret on guitars, and through Keeley compressor. Harp and Tele are both through MXR Timmy. Drums are MT Power Drum kit sampler. I also tracked a Latin percussion shaker. Mics are Apex 550 for vocals and an Apex 327 for harp. Inspiration for the song came from Dylan’s version of Axe and the Wind. #music #blues #guitar #bass #recording #war #songwriting #gearsquad https://youtu.be/72GYFodn9M0
