LIVINGROOM CASSETTES is literally 9 original songs I recorded in about 4 hours over the course of 2 days.It was recorded in my livingroom on a 4 track TASCAM porta03 cassette ministudio that I bought used in the early 90's, I think. The drum tracks I created on a Boss Dr. Rhythm DR3. All the other instruments you hear were played by yours truly on a Yamaha s90es synthesizer. I sang and played at the same time. Sometimes I played two instruments at the same time such as the bass and piano in "The Rainy Side of Town." Please know that cassettes do not make a very quality recording and this is a very rough recording of low quality. I don't have the money right now to record these songs properly, but it sure was fun for me.
TIP OR DIE (lyrics)
They're all here now, they've been waiting for you
So set your stuff up, hurry now let's roll
They've all got much better things to do
You can see it now it's true
They come a long way, but not for you
Important things, you know work and staffing too
Please don't be offended, our meeting starts at nine
But we all wanna have a real good time
Fifteen minutes outta be enough of you
Can'tcha play my song? How come ya don't know?
It's easy, just goes like this
Come on now, we gotta leave
Just make it up, easy as you please
Know what? I got something better
Here's a song just for you, why don'tcha hum along too?
La la, la la la, la la, la la la, la la, la la la, la
La, la, la la la la, la la tip or die
The crowd is all gone, and they're not comingback
If you finish up now, I can save a stack
Fifty bucks enough ya didn't do much tonight
We'll see you tomorrow at five!
