I urge you to write a review - you don't have to be kind, but at least be constructive. Again, thank you for listening, I hope you like them. -- All downloadable files are MP3s, with the times and bitrates shown - so you know exactly what you are getting.

Air Water Fire and Earth
Air, Water, Fire and Earth is an ancient 1985 song made to feature a homebuilt voice synthesizer. The drum machine sounds retro, but it's what most drum machines actually sounded like back then. Other synth sounds were from a tiny portable keyboard and a homebuilt sound FX synthesizer. Originally recorded on reel-to-reel multitrack, this song was digitally remastered.

The Beer Song
This song explores the use of a vocoder as the lead instrument. A stacatto moog bass and funky clav underlies it all. It is propelled by a traditional drum machine sound enhanced with bricks and clock tick samples. Song Length 3:39 128 Kb/s

Blaze
After a short break, a round of brews and some guy talk, the three of them got back in the studio and started to improvise a more upbeat tune. Rich laid down a rock beat and Kevin set a groove with the bass that's sure to get you moving. Then, Mark stomped on the fuzz pedal and ripped out an amazing, blazing lead as easily as you tie your shoelaces. This tune proves that Mark is a creative master of the guitar solo. -- Song Length 5:33 -- 192KBps MP3

Bloody Well Right
A re-arranged cover of the Supertramp Song. You gotta gripe? Then you've got a right to say it. A moderate tempo rock song with electric guitar, electric piano, and sax. This song is #3 on the charts of my downloadable songs. Song Length 3:45 128 Kb/s MP3

Breakin' Away from Sanity
Kim Carnes originally wrote and recorded this song. Then I got the chance to embarass myself with it, so I did. It's a mellow synth-piano and vocal song, played on a Korg DW-6000. -- Song Length 2:59 -- 160KBps MP3

Burning Down the House
A cover of the Talking Heads song. Try to make sense of the lyrics if you must. A rock tune with a danceable groove featuring electric guitar and synthesizer. This is my 2nd-most popular downloaded song. Vocals by Kevin Bolshaw. -- Song Length 3:55 -- 128 Kb/s MP3

Comfortably Numb
A Pink Floyd cover with a 'live' version of vocals. This recording has a stretched-jam ending with a progressively faster tempo. Played live, folks love it. Harry does a great job emulating David Gilmore. Vocals:Jim Hines Guitar:Harry Spade Keys,Bass,E-Drums:Rich DeAngelis Song Length 8:25 192Kb/s MP3

Crusin'
This is a relatively high energy ear-candy song. It wants to be adapted into a TV-show theme song. The complex but not too chaotic percussion patterns were derrived from homemade software that used drummer-like rules to display drum patterns. The interesting patterns were printed out and programmed into a sequencer/sampler. The groovier ones were assembled into this wildly percussive song, and filled out with plenty of synth tracks. This is the last song my trusty old DX7-II played before it self-destructed. Song Length 2:54 128 Kb/s

Dazzling Star
Dazzling Star gets it's name from the "sparkly" sounding arpeggiating sequencer that drives the rhythm in this song, combined with other bright sounding tones. There's plenty of old-fashoned ear candy here, but only a little bit of melody. This is a digitally remastered song from the 80's. Song Length 2:43 128 Kb/s
Download: $0.44

 
Dream On
Covers the Aerosmith hit using a blend of electric guitar and synth. Vocals:Jim Hines; Guitar:Harry Spade; Synth,Bass,E-Drums:Rich DeAngelis -- Song Length 4:14 -- 192KB/s MP3
Download: FREE

 
Dumpy Onions
Dumpy Onions is another rock child of the live "Tape Heads Jam". This tune showcases John Hammond on guitar and Kevin Bolshaw on bass. John experiments with some drawn out slide licks that add much excitement to this number. Rich plays an unusual snare sound to add a different flavor to the rhythm. It seems to work for him, because as the tune goes on, his drumming evolves into a swirling cloud of tom hits and cymbals. Kevin's bass keeps the group together and gets the three of them really in the "zone". -- Song Length 6:48 -- 192KBps MP3

Empty Spaces, Young Lust
A Pink Floyd cover of 'Empty Spaces' and 'Young Lust' from 'The Wall'. There's some great guitar work by Harry Spade in here. Telephone sounds from Bell Atlantic Coatesville Pennsylvania POTS exchange using a Panasonic telephone (...like anyone cares). Vocals:Jim Hines; Guitar:Harry Spade; Synths,Bass,E-Drums,Sound Fx,Voices:Rich DeAngelis --Song Length 5:49 -- 192Kb/s MP3

E Octave Jam
One of the best improvised rock songs to come out of the live "Tape Heads Jam Session" on a beautiful spring day in May of 1992. Kevin Bolshaw, John Hammond and drummer Rich DeAngelis were the musicians, but it's not certain who played guitar or bass on this particular tune. It doesn't really matter though, since both players combined to produce a great piece of jam. Rich later added the flute and Hammond organ to add a little more meat to this song. -- Song Length 7:42 -- 192KBps MP3

Escape
Escape is a moderate tempo song about a tortured soul needing to escape the lonesome blues from missing a girl etc. This song uses lush synthesizer pad sounds to texture the song, but avoids sounding sci-fi electronic. The attitude may be down but it sounds like there's light at the end of the tunnel. Song Length 6:03 128 Kb/s MP3
Download: $0.69

 
Get Ready
An original and groovin', 3-chord, rock and roll fundamental written by Jim Hines. Vocals,Bass:Jim Hines; Guitar:Rich Touhill; Synth Guitar,Drums,Sound FX:Rich DeAngelis -- Song Length 3:16 -- 128KBps MP3
