Sid Brown

I played guitar on this for my old friend Sid in a practice space in L.A. – it was a demo at the time, one of his first, but here it is on his album, which came out this year. I really liked doing this : after years of playing ” big ” guitar, it was fun to play as ” small ” as possible, a Telecaster through an old Fender Vibro-Champ.

I played guitar on this, from Bluebird’s Black Presence LP. It’s largely an instrumental record which sounds real cool when you’re driving alone at night.

I made this little thing at a friends’ house back in .. I don’t remember, early 2000s – back when the first ” Pro Tools Lite ” came out. I had a really cheap little tube mic pre ( dig the layers of hiss ), a Shure SM57, a little amp ( not to play through, but to slap for a reverb-y percussion sound ) and whatever instruments were lying around .. well, okay, the nice old Fender Rhodes electric piano I played wasn’t just lying around. I really like this – my caffeinated attempt to channel Joe Zawinul noodling as his spacecraft falls slowly into the sun .. and if you get what I mean by that, you are definitely dorky enough to be looking at this website.
