BONGOS BLUES DELIGHT

from GUNK @ THE BOTTOM (2024 Remaster) by The Santairs

/

about

It was totally improvised when I recorded it on a two track stereo recorder. It was performed live in one take without knowing what we were going to do. This obviously borders on the avant-garde too, but it has enough of a form to consider this an actual tune. It features Wayde Brown (me) on bass, Jerry O'Neill on guitar, and Sean Crain on bongos. I think this song started with Sean saying that he could play bongos to any song for as long as we could play our instruments. This song was transferred from cassette tape from a Denon DRM-700 3 head cassette deck with silent mechanism onto digital form to the Audacity music recording and editing program.
This is song #138. This song was originally written on 7-1-86.

Recorded at The CELL BLOCK Studio in Auburn, WA.

The Santairs Auburn, Washington

I am a musician, singer, and songwriter doing this part-time but have been doing it all my life. I started singing before I could talk at the age of one, and wrote my first real song at 15 years of age. (If you count avant-garde as a song, then the age would be 7.) I currently own my own recording studio; and I write, perform, and record my own music (and other's from time to time.) I am Santairs. ... more
