Sittin' and Thinkin'

This song is off of a record called "I Do My Swingin' At Home" by the great songwriter and singer Charlie Rich. I appreciate how he blended country, blues, gospel, jazz, rockabilly and soul. Charlie became a session musician, singing and playing at Sun in 1958. I wish I could go back in time and be at Sun Studios in the 1950s, I'd do anything, carry equipment, tune guitars, get coffee...

Wild About You Baby
iTunes//Amazon//Spotify
Elmore James was a radio repairman, so he reworked his guitar amps, getting them to make raw, distorted sound... we're talking pre heavy rock amps that came in the later 1960s. He was way ahead. As a songwriter and bottleneck slide guitar player he has influenced bucket loads of aspiring musicians. His backing band The Broomdusters from Chicago were the cream of the crop.

Oklahoma Hills
One of my first memories of my dad was singing this Woody Guthrie song the "Oklahoma Hills where I was born". It was one of my dad's favorites. My grandparents came from Oklahoma in 1927 to work on farms in the Imperial Valley California about 10 miles from Mexico. My dad lived on the farm until he was 15 years old, until his dad passed away on a tractor, while out working in the fields. So, at the age of 15 my father moved to the city, with his only possession's being one bag, and a wealth of knowledge of the great american cowboy song.
Dedicated to Don Armstrong 1931-2012.

Dope Sick Girl
iTunes//Amazon//Spotify
Dope Sick Girl was first released on a Fat Wreck Chords 7" in 1993 and was tracked at Westbeach Recorders in Hollywood. Westbeach was a punk rock hot spot in the 1990s-recording NOFX, Pennywise, Bad Religion and Rocket From The Crypt to name a few. This is the first appearance of Lars Frederiksen on a Rancid single and would rock the known music universe as we once knew it.
