Some Crap For You To Listen To
06.04.06 (9:27 pm) [edit]A while back, the fabulous L.A. gave me access to some webspace to upload to. I linked here to a version of Zappa's Zoot Allures a month or so ago. Since the rotten fucker hasn't written me back yet to tell me what he thought of the other stuff I put up there (just kidding, you know I love you, you little cunt) I thought I'd inflict another recording on you fine folk and see how much it makes your brain explode.
This is probably 10 years old now. Maybe 11. It was done on my four-track machine. It's four tracks of vocals, two of them backwards, run through various effects. And while you might not believe this, I was SOBER at the time.
Some of you have heard this monstrosity already. It's called Several Species Of Roger Waters Fans Locked In A Mental Ward And Playing With A Four-Track. Fans of early Pink Floyd will get the joke. The rest of you should be informed that no psychedelic muppets were harmed in the making of this...uh...thing.
Check it out:

I was going to do one last recording tonight here at the Indianapolis location of Froggytown Studios (yes, that's what I've called it since i got that four-track back 12 or so years ago) before moving my shit down to Cincy tomorrow. Unfortunately, my voice isn't cooperating tonight. I can hit all the notes with plenty of strength, but all my subtlety (what little I have) has flown out the window and I sound constipated. Dammit. Oh well, enjoy this old shit.
Love,
Dougie

The only thing that track is missing is a crazy British guy spewing jibberish in a cacophonous accent.
That track made my brain feel a lot like a certain night spent in a cemetery many years ago....and other nights like it.
What scares me is that people who have never done drugs come up with shit like this. Which means that you do not need mind altering substances to create seriously twisted shit. Congratulations.

Haha...cute. I dig the joke in the title as well.
Have you ever heard Phish's White Tape? There's a track on there called "He Ent to the Bog" that sounds a bit like this, minus the telephone jokes.
