OFF: New song "Parallax" by Espada Negra (on the Hawkwindy side!)

[Abra Cadabra]

As for FREE dots stuff check BOTH the Pandoras Music Box AND
Strasbourg 1986 shows on my BC page. They are stellar with the ARCHAIC
electric violins by Patrick Q. Paganini and the now dead bass legend
Bob Pistoor... from the prime mid 80s LPDs... so psychedelic you will
never hear anything like it ever again.

>>>>>> Yeah ;) "Afterburner" is _very_ self-consciously a tribute to a lot of things in the stoner/space genres that I love: the main verse chorus riffs are really a mash-up of "Master of the Universe", "Gardenia", the Open Mind's "Magic Potion" as covered by Sun Dial, and "Blue Snow"-era Orange Goblin, while bits of the bridge are basically riffs lifted from "Dopes to Infinity" at a different tempo. ;)  It has the "stop-start" thing from "Master of the Universe" as well. ;)  And the same John Glenn sample used in Hawkwind's "The Phenomenon of Luminosity" .... ;)
>>>>>>
>>>>>> "Afterburner" was really my first home-recording effort, with the basic tracks recorded about 10 years ago now on the Roland VS-1680 I had then (though remixed more recently). All the guitars and bass used the built-in amp models! Actually, I'm not sure I've ever since got as useful a bass tone as I did out of those then. It sounds rubbish if you solo it :D but it suited the mix very well. :D

>>>>>> I've sometimes thought about trying to redo the vocals an octave higher, but I'm not sure I can manage it. Still that might be better ... or I could try to get Dave Wyndorf to sing it. ;)
