This week's podcast recordings

I just put up today's podcast (Socks of Quarters Blues, with a couple of verses worth of lyrics provided by [livejournal.com profile] twillis), so here's a week's worth of recordings:
  1. "Pumpkin, Mrs. Farnsworth" [introduction] (March 5, 2006) -- guitar, accordion, vocals
  2. Sweet Baby James [introduction] (March 6, 2006) -- karaoke machine, vocals
  3. Complicated [introduction] (March 7, 2006) -- accordion, vocals, fake drums
  4. That'll Never Happen No More [introduction] (March 8, 2006) -- guitar, vocals
  5. Hybrid Car [introduction] (March 9, 2006) -- guitar, vocals
  6. I Believe To My Soul [introduction] (March 10, 2006) -- piano, vocals
  7. Socks of Quarters Blues [introduction] (March 11, 2006) -- accordion, vocals
I'm pleased with how these turned out. I think "Pumpkin, Mrs. Farnsworth" is improved by the addition of the accordion, arranging Hybrid Car for the guitar kind of changed the way I thought about that song, I was glad to finally record 'I Believe To My Soul', and the Avril Lavigne song turned out better than I expected.

Also, Chris Monti loaned me his Martin while he's off touring Florida, so I got to make some recordings with that, which is nice, because it's probably the nicest acoustic guitar I'll ever play.

I've updated the website to make it a little prettier and more informative, so you can see a list of all the recordings on the main page and instructions on how to subscribe to the podcast on the podcast page.

Update: Due to sillyness on my part none of the links to the recordings worked. This has now been fixed.

Oh man, that Avril cover is great.

Woah! That version of Pumpkin, Mr.s Farnsworth has sex in the lyrics.
