"Jam ---> Roadhouse Blues"

You're right, 64Guitars, it is very Yankovician.

Do you really own 64 guitars, or is that just some sort of grand fantasy?

No, just 3 electrics, a broken acoustic, and a bass.

Right on.

BBY - I chose this from the list because it had the word' Blues' in the title as opposed to the word 'Metal'. And what a revelation. If this was (again) a Jam-Session, imagine how much you could achieve with some structured practice get-togethers'? Certainly nothing wrong with the playing or recording (vocals could have done with some chorus added to thicken the sound - that Bass guitar is a bruiser of an opponent!), but all-in-all, this could have been added to any number of 'Live' albums without too much further tinkering. Well done to you all, and I suggest further round-ups of oddities from the Oddities.

I wrestle with this notion. I have stated numerous times how enamored I am with the fully-realized posts of Bosko, Greeny, and the like. The jam sessions at the house are meant to be fun and loose, and even over the short time since we posted this, we have tightened up quite a bit. Having said that, if the tunes were reduced down to an overly structured format, I wouldn't enjoy the evenings a quarter as much.

My philsophy about The Museum of Oddities is that folks come over, we have a few beers, a lot of laughs, and leave in a better mood than when we started. For me, that involves lots of improvisation (and a fridge with Guinness).

Thank you very much for commenting. It is always appreciated greatly.
