  • FYI, it is actually a version of Funkadelic's Music For My Mother. Either way, it has been renamed and recredited, I'll have to put them side by side to see if its a cover, or some form of bootleg...
  • The track is credited to H Sparky. I wish I knew how to post the pic, but its nothing special, just a red generic looking 45. Its also a B Tate production, though I'm still lost about this record, and a little pissed that my copy isn't in better con…
  • I also read in a home recording magazine about a technique of placing mics inside a large pvc pipe (around 6") and facing the open end toward the kick as some sort of sound tunnel. Never tried it, but it sounds interesting.
  • I've got a pdf or word document at home all about drum setups. I haven't read it yet, but saw it on the desktop at work and emailed it to myself. It may not list particular microphones but I would bet they'd at least tell you what type you'd need fo…
  • Cosign on that Garage A Trois. I've got two of their albums, and went to see them live last year. Skerik (the sax player) is an absolute villain, and I've really liked the times he's played out with Claypool and JFJO side projects. Charlie Hunter, M…

  • If you are into free stuff, you should check out Ken Vandermark and related projects (Spaceways Inc.). I also came across this interesting group called The Beat Circus, which takes the music of the big top and puts a jazz/ improvisational spin on it…

  • Don't have a copy of that Busta track laying around, but I'm pretty sure it'd be in straight 4. Tracks in 7 rarely make it into the limelight. 5 on the other hand is more common (Mission Impossible or Take Five). On a side note, some one was trying …
  • One of my buddies had got one from Vaporwarez as part of a NORML promotion. They were real cheap at the time, but I believe the price has gone back up. I think shops in NYC carry ones of this sort in the $150-200 range. As for health, it feels like …
  • I usually stick with the skate shoes. Rockin these now.
  • He did a jazz master class in the same place that I work. I was closing up one night and hear 'grazing in the grass' coming from the room above me. I'm like, damn someone's covering this track real well. Come to find out I missed the man himself in …
  • Did Bruce Willis take himself seriously on The Return of Bruno?
