1. Uh…well.

2. Super obscure Jorge Ben record…thanks Chris.

3. This record is magic.

1. Breezy Surf-Psych.

2. One of Jorge’s meanest and dirtiest sounding records. Can’t get enough.

3. A favorite of mine for many years.

1. So bad ass. Carol Kaye plays bass on these tracks. My bass player Mark Getten is now taking lessons from Carol. So surreal.

2. Another LA artist and someone I’ve had the privilege to hang with a time or three.

3. A great compilation I picked up in Seattle while on tour a couple of years ago. I wish I could remember the name of the place as the guy who owned the joint was super cool and turned me on to a few nuggets.

Some other guitars used on “FS&D”…namely the vintage burst 1960′s Silvertone in front (courtesy of Steven Stern). That guitar was used on several tunes…namely the electric guitar parts in “Darker Days”.

I used this 1966 Gibson ES 330 (on lend from friend Seven Stern) on a few tracks on “FS&D”. I believe this was taken during the recording of “When the Dust Settles”…the haunting, twangy part in the chorus. Run this through the Silvertone 1485 and the Fender Reverb and you’re in bizness.
