This is the first new thing I've recorded in almost 2 years.

I had been playing the rhythm guitar parts for a while and finally decided to hear what they'd sound like with bass and drums (and other noise thrown on top).

It came out OK, but as usual it's sloppy. But I don't care. I start to go mental if I work too hard on it.

This song was done entirely with my Warmoth gold top LP.

Description

Experiments in guitar recording.

Little nuggets of guitar playing for your (but especially my) enjoyment.

From the very beginning when I used to hear those solos on those old records I used to say: now here is an instrument that is capable of spewing forth true obscenity, you know? If ever there's an obscene noise to be made on an instrument, it's going to come out of a guitar. On a saxophone you can play sleaze. On a bass you can play balls. But on a guitar you can be truly obscene... Let's be realistic about this, the guitar can be the single most blasphemous device on the face of the earth. That's why I like it... The disgusting stink of a too-loud electric guitar: now that's my idea of a good time.
