I am thinking I should follow Nigel of Spinal Tap's lead for my next "career" choice.... "A salesman, like maybe in a, uh, haberdasher, or maybe like a, uh, um... a chapeau shop or something. You know, like, "Would you... what size do you wear, sir?" And then you answer me." --- Actually, that is kinda what is happening, since I am about to auction off many of my collectibles on EBAY soon.

BTM = The Hermit... Magician... Recluse... Kook.

This man has talent... but you prob don't have the time to really LISTEN...

Mount Beatlemore

This is a self-portrait snapshot from a Piano Factory gallery show in Boston's South End. I am not actually IN the small room behind the glass doors... I am outside looking in. It is hard to tell, but if you look close there a painting (artist unknown - otherwise i would credit) of the FAB FOUR as MOUNT RUSHMORE. When I passed by the glass to look in the room i noticed my head's perspective became part of the sculpture. Sorta.

JIMI HENDRIX - MY GUITAR HERO


Between ROCK BAND and GUITAR HERO games you can play "Fire" & "The Wind Cries Mary" & "If 6 was 9” & “Little Wing" on yer plastic controllers. Plus, GH has a Jimi animated character choice for our lefty southpaw guitar god. I wonder if they (Guitar Hero or Rock Band) will ever get the Hendrix foundation to license a full game with a Jimi strat controller, like The Beatles Rock Band?

In the meantime, a slew of Hendrix is due out in 2010 in a relaunch of the catalog, including Valleys of Neptune album and companion DVDs.... jimi-hendrix.com

I saw JIMI open for the THE MONKEES in North Carolina on July 11, 1967... his first album had been released in UK, but didn't come out in the states until August '67. So, the only song I recognized was his Troggs cover of Wild Thing which Jimi heaved a pile of FAIRY DUST onto and blew my eleven year old mind. Then I scored the first album and recorded it to my Dad's Tandberg reel-to-reel recorder and accidentally threaded it backwards and that activated a few more of my brain cells into overdrive. I had advanced from playing tennis racquet guitar and scored an acoustic silvertone guitar and shortly after that scored my electric Silvertone BobCat Guitar and formed THE ELECTRIC ONION band and we played/butchered FOXY LADY and PURPLE HAZE to the point where to this day except for a bit of homage jamming, I don't really attempt to cover any Jimi songs out of respect for the originals.

MISSION OF BURMA at THE PARADISE in BOSTON


Going to see Mission Of Burma play down the street from my studio this Friday/Saturday (January 15 & 16, 2010) at The Paradise Club in Boston. Gonna try NOT to take a CAMERA and just listen and watch for a change. I have tons of MOB (and Roger Miller solo) shots online already and even more photos/video that I will prob never have the time to sort through. There will be a entourage of hot shot paparazzi shooters down front, so both show will be covered with or without me.

Here's a couple shots I snapped of MOB when they played The Paradise Summer 2008...



SEE MORE BTM PHOTOS of BURMA.
....plus info on a couple of Roger Miller solo albums
that I engineered/co-produced at Headroom years ago.

UPDATE: THE KONKS played a killer opening set on Friday. Konks just released a cool circuit board cover with working theremin for their new 7 -inch record. Konks drummer/vocalist KURT DAVIS was lead singer (as Yukki Gipe) for Bullet LaVolta and played drums in the band Kustomized with Peter Prescott (MOB drummer) on vocals. Peter and Kurt also worked together at various Boston-area record stores over the years.
