Failed musician from Colorado, became a cab driver on Nantucket (👍) then Tour Publicist for my favorite band (👍👍) then sold my soul to peddle ads online (👎👎).. currently seeking redemption for my soul and self actualization for bragging rights.
If you want a taste of why Zappa is on so many lists, start at 1:45 mark. If you want to also hear some of the best drumming (Chad Wackerman) and horns ever, start from the start. youtu.be/u3y8kh4DubE?...

Right on! Can’t wait to hear more. The way your vocal cadence lays polyrhythms with the beat is insane. I’ll spread the word. Take it easy….

I’m a knucklehead.….”pre-delay”, “reverb” drats! I lost but had fun playing. 👍

I didn’t have any expectations, certainly didn’t expect to hear undeniable genius. Your talent is extreme; as is your advanced intellect & ability to express a complex but accessible artistry. Makes me think of Radiohead (not in sound but in musical expression of genius that connects). Don’t stop.✌️

Ugh. To think it all started with 3 chords and a dream. Corporate music machine ate your baby. That sucks.

It’s not ‘new’ but will be to many people. I got turned on to these cats when they opened for Rush in the 80’s on some US dates. they just floored me. You might be familiar, if not check out Marillion Warm Wet Circles. top 5 all time to me; lyrical, musical masters.

- Medium Build
- Sea Legs (the Shins)
