Preface to a Dog Space Rock
Play Lo Fi Lo Fi (Modem) Play Hi Fi Hi Fi (DSL or Cable)

The drum track was originally recorded in Chicago by David Suycott for another song I wrote. Then, Don K. sent me some tampura tracks which I added to Dave's track. I added Bass and Guitar and the tune came to life by the magic of the Postal Services and pure randomness....

Elephant Alternative Funk
Play Lo Fi Lo Fi (Modem) Play Hi Fi Hi Fi (DSL or Cable)

This is the final version of a song that's been changed many times over the years. The lyrics were written using the David Bowie method which is to scramble sentences and words from various resources and then string them together. I managed to make sense out of nonsense and tell a tale about Syd Barrett!

Gunter der Zwerg Industrial Electronic
Play Lo Fi Lo Fi (Modem) Play Hi Fi Hi Fi (DSL or Cable)

This is a story about Gunter the midget, and his pig named Raoul....

Dirk Matzner, the vocalist on this track, was born and raised in East Berlin. I had him translate the lyrics for me and with no prior musical experience he became the vocalist for this song. Much to my surprise, he kept the rhythm amazingly well. If you happen to know German, you might get a giggle or two at the lyrics...

Last Train to Morocco Instrumental Rock
Play Lo Fi Lo Fi (Modem) Play Hi Fi Hi Fi (DSL or Cable)

This song features a nice mix of African percussion and rock n' roll guitar. Unfortunately this is from the days when all I had was cassettes to record on, so the quality could be better. All in all, everyone seems to tap their toes to it.
