We are an improvisation group. This is an alternate mix to a cut from our forth coming CD MAN MUST EXPLORE. Our improvised pieces can run from 8-30 minutes long however MME is an album of singles, if you will. On our latest CD, we have excised the gems from the jams to provide 10 tracks, coming in at under 45 minutes total (which could easily be two songs for us).

THE STORM SELLER

Now the storm sellers, they was just plain evil.
Any man that can conjure up rain at his command,
has to be in league with the dark forces of the world (the devil)
I tell ya, it was uh.
uh… the summer of 32
And you know… it was dry
Corn was wilting in the fields

There was a flash of lightening and there he was
Standing dressed in black
He was kinda old and evil
And he said uh…. I can bring you folks some rain
But it gonna cost you (the devil)

Well….we didn’t know it at the time, but what…
What it was gonna be, was not money, but human souls…

Yea… well. he brought the rain alright
But…. the storms wiped out all our spreads…
Forty souls was a-taken on that day and…
Men just disappeared uh

Uh I don’t know what to say about it,
Still kinda affected from that

I had a limb fall on my head… and they had to cut my leg off
To get me out from underneath the thing
If I ever catch up with this man, I uh... I will try to kill him.

Uh… I think he IS the Devil, in my own estimation.
There have been
Stories circulating around
That he just moved around the world and did this.

We’ll never know…..we’ll never know but…

Dressed in black
And he was kinda soaked with rain or sweat.

Had a hearse-like thing drawn by black stallions
And a sign on ….
A sign on the side of it sayin…
It said uh… the Storm Seller.
