Miscellaneous Grumpy Note Written in a Coffee Shop

Seriously, bud?  Your taste in jazz is so exquisite that you have to turn your computer speakers up and set them in tinny competition with the coffee shop sound system, currently playing Blind Boys of Alabama? Sometimes I wish I wasn’t such a polite Midwestern boy.  (Delightfully, he was caught out when – apparently forgetting that his player was set to “mix” – the jazz song came to a close and was followed heels-on by the opening riff of AC/DC’s “Hell’s Bells.”  Dude nearly broke his wrist fast-forwarding to a free-form sitar piece.)

Homeboy Harmonies

After I put up this post, a few folks asked about the harmonies on the title song from the Tiny Pilot album.  Most were supplied by Long Beds guitarist, keyboardist, and resident crooner extraordinaire Chris Ramey, who does not always croon.  As for the haunting vocals heard just behind the lines, “Tell me little mother’s son” and “Oh, this short, sharp life,” they were provided by friend, neighbor, and Long Beds guitarist emeritus Justin Vernon, who these days works on some side projects.
