about

A variety of 4-track recordings were executed from my move to New Orleans, Louisiana in 1993. These represent two sessions recorded above the Hemp Museum in Mid-City NOLA. Tracks 1-5 and 23 were recorded on CInco Di Mayo 1993 with the Colorado Tigger on guest guitar...the other songs are solo tracks from July 1993...a dozen more songs were laid down that do not make it to this digital collective. Various tape/CD incarnations of these tunes were under the titles "the Hemp Tapes" and "the Immortal Jethro Easyfields" etc. * Bonus tracks recorded live at the Neutral Ground Coffeehouse New Orleans, LA. 1993...the songs were written from 1991-1993 and 8 folk songs are presented here in ramblin' forms.
