Hello and thank you for taking the time to look at my Soundclick page. This is my 15 minutes, Warhol was right! I have signed up to Routenote in order to get my songs onto Spotify and Itunes. I've cherry-picked my favourite songs and made them into a compliation called "Recorded Music (home & away)". These pages will be going live in the next four to six weeks. I was going to delete my Soundclick page but thought I'd leave these few songs that haven't made the compilation on here. Including cover versions and songs I'm not quite so happy with these days. I will provide links as soon as they become available.

Story behind the song
I wrote this tune on double bass years ago and never really knew what to do with it. I find wrting lyrics to be something of a struggle and this melody really did not inspire me, not least because it's not a particularly nice thing to sing, it's pretty much just a riff. So having spent a lot of time listening to Skip, Hop & Wobble by Jerry Douglas, Edgar Meyer and Russ Barenberg, I thought I'd try it out as an instrumental. I'm fairly happy with it, particularly the mandolin break which I feel has reckless quality to it (for reckless, read lots of bum notes).

The song title is what you get when you type the words Doghouse Bass into babelfish translator on Alta Vista. I'm sure that someone who can speak Spanish will provide a correct translation one day.

Intstruments used-

Gibson J50 acoustic guitar.

Double Bass.

Dobro.

Aria Mandolin.
