Prelude

So I've been wanting to do an album for just voice and bass for
YEARS, but I couldn't afford a studio/didn't know how to do my own
editing/was too much of a perfectionist/yadda-yadda-yadda,
ANYWAY, here is the first track of what I hope will be my first album
for bass and voice. Last week (August 18th, 2010) I did a recording
session in my living room of just me singing and playing my bass at
the same time for over an hour, improvising and pouring my heart
out musically, and this is part of what came out. The rest will be
some more tracks that I have to edit/mix. A lot of the layering that
happened I had no idea would turn out the way it did, so when I just
for kicks started adding tracks (I worked with Audacity) and cutting
and pasting I was quite delighted with the counterpoint that
ensued! Special thanks to Terry for listening to this as many times
as he did and giving constructive criticism without complaining
about my obsessive artistic narcissism.:) In seeking my own peace, I
hope that this music will bless you as you seek yours.
