New song! "Do It Again" (Beach Boys cover)
Hey everyone! See the corresponding blog post for the full story, but today, for the third song in my song-a-week project, I'm unveiling a cover of "Do It Again" by the Beach Boys. I played it relatively straight, so if you like the original, and if you stick a little cotton in your ears, you just might like my rendition of it.
It's part of Songfight's Gift of Music sidefight, and is presented as a gift to fellow fighter LSK. I hope you enjoy it.
This song also marks the debut of my new bass, which was sold to me at a criminally discounted price by Paco del Stinko. Go visit Paco at http://www.nubsy.com and tell him how much we all love him.
Hear the new song

One belated, and one brand new
Hey everyone! I'm still plugging away, and although my pace has slowed, my enthusiasm has not!
A few weeks ago I finished (and forgot to post here) a cover I'd been working on, of a little ditty called
"Gary" by Paco del Stinko. Similar to the Melvin cover below, this was done as part of a larger group effort; a bunch of us all surprised Paco with covers of his songs, all at once.
Hear my contribution
here.
I also, finally, got around to finishing a studio version of my "False Positive." You may remember that this is track with which
Ross Durand won a Songfight last summer. I know it's my own work, but I liked it so much I wanted to have a version of my own.
So there you have it.
