It's Winter again. Hello death, how do you do? My very ever first tune with a drum machine, which I discovered embedded within my guitar effects pedal. Who knew? Song and all tracks by hank49 (me), so far.
Newest original - demo. An autobiography.

This is a great song by Kyler England covered once several years ago in a classic Loose Canon jam session at Witcraft Manor. My daughter, Lena Redding, on main vocals. See below for more info.
From the "Week's Worth Of Gravy" jam session of November 21, 2009 - WILD ABOUT MY LOVIN' - I can't find a definitive author for this, but John Sebastion did it after Jim Kweskin and the Jug Band (1963) and after Jim Jackson (1928).
Brand new recording. Alas, still a couple of flubbed guitar figures closer to the end. I'll get it right, I swear. but this is an improvement over the first. This one was recorded on September 21, 2009.
Recorded and produced by hank49 at Witcraft Manor, September 2008. Guitars, vocals and bass by hank49 - harps by Robert Darlington.

Original song for Michael Phelps. This is an ensemble version from a jam on November 21, 2009. Mike Redding - acoustuc guitar and vocals; John Seay - bass; Robert Darlington - electric guitar.
Another live recording, warts and all. Straight ahead country type folk ballad about a guy and his 'significant other', with just a couple extra chord changes thrown in for 'good measure'. A love song about substance abuse.
Dulcimer, fiddle, madolin....anyone? This one will stay an instrumental.
Drop D e-string and nobody gets hurt.

Another version of the great song by Robert Darlington of Translator, posted with Bob's permission. Bob on vocals and guitar.
Brand new take recorded on March 7th, 2009. A Folk Blues with a 13th feel in the lower register utilizing the key's flatted fifth throughout. The bridge's chord movements are especially interesting.
Rough multitrack concept mix for a Nashville style tearjerker Sunday-go-to-cheatin' song. Updated take from March 8th, 2009.

Man in good mood. Woman in bad mood. Resulting conversation. Glass half-full.
This mix has a nice new harp part contributed by Robert Darlington of Translator - soundclick.com/robertdarlington
A rocker about leaving - leaving a normal life, leaving a lover for another, running away from home like a bored border collie, or bailing out on a belief system finally seen for what it is.
Recorded live August 29th, 2009 at Witcraft Manor. This is a jam session take with Mike Redding, Robert Darlington, Dave Eske, John Seay, Tom Edwards and Bob Bauer as engineer.
For Sashah Alexander Shulgin, Albert Hofmann, and for their spirits. Hats off in the temple, kids!
A casual, yet neo-classical (albeit on steel strings) approach to a new song about my life in Baltimore.

Bluesy, folky, a little jokey. For hometown boy and World Champion Michael Phelps. This take is an updated one, recorded March 6, 2009.

'Great song written and performed by Robert Darlington of Translator(soundclick.com/robertdarlington) recorded/produced by hank49 at Witcraft Manor.
TURN THIS ONE UP! Ah, yes...a theme we can all relate to.The fundamental attraction between the sexes. A recent jam cut, this is a good prototype for how this one should be done. Just a little audio soft-soap opera neo-porn - on the soft side.
