1809.2 | If my stuff makes it on... | DNEAST::BOTTOM_DAVID | Nice computers don't go down | Thu May 03 1990 09:19 | 40 |
| Dave Bottom/LA East Rhythm and Blues Band
These two pieces come from what's probably our last session. Both were recorded
on a Tascam 38 through a Tascam 320 board, using an ART proverb for effects, a
yamaha (I forget the model) compressor limiter and a bunch of mikes, none of
which were among the best money can buy.
Don't shut the door: Written by Doug Brosuis and Ross Timberlake
The song is a sort of tribute to Paul Butterfield written after his death.
Doug Brosuis: Vocals and harp
Steve Brooks: Bass
Ray "the count" Corliss: Drums
Steve Ives: Guitar (second solo and fills)
Dave Bottom: Guitar (first solo)
Break Down and Cry: Written by Dave Bottom
I dunno who this is really for...it just came out one night.
Doug Brosuis: harp
Steve Brooks: Bass
Ray "the count" Corliss: Drums
Steve Ives: Guitar (first solo and fills)
Dave Bottom: Vocals, Guitar (second solo)
The players:
The gear:
Doug: the 'ole blues harp, shure green bullet and super reverb
Steve Brooks: Musicman bass direct into the board
Ray: cheapo drums
Steve Ives: Vintage gibson explorer through a Semour Duncan 100w Convertible
ART proverb for effects
Dave Bottom: Rivera TRB-1M, Alesis Quadraverb

1809.3 | | AQUA::ROST | Bad imitation of Jerry Jemmott | Thu May 03 1990 10:01 | 27 |
| I personally think it would be easier if the liner notes were more
organized, but in case that doesn't happen, here goes (and if it does,
I'll just delete this):
Brian Rost
Notes:
Got my first electric guitar in 1981 (had been playing bass a few
years). Both these pieces were done in my living room back in 1982
(except for the vocal which was done just for this submission). Shortly
thereafter I abandoned all hopes of ever being any good on the guitar
8^) 8^) Hope you find these as ridiculous as I did when I went back
to listen to them!
"Nothing But Time"
This once had (bad) lyrics, mercifully erased. Added new (worse) lyrics
and vocals for submission. Check out Neil Young and Lou Reed
influences.
"Parallel"
This was my first experiment with recording harmony guitar lines.
Originally was to have lyrics, but I always sing last, and the guitar
parts were so busy there was no space. Note obligatory synth pad and
tasteless punk lead break at the end.

1809.4 | Buckley Project Liner Notes | ICS::BUCKLEY | See ya! | Thu May 03 1990 10:10 | 48 |
| William J. Buckley, the guitarist (NOT the movie!)
Reminiscence of Rio: Written by Bill Buckley
The two pieces come from a wide retrospect of my 'career' (Hahahaha).
This song is when I was a "jazz head" (actually, a metal head imitating
a jazz head) at Berzerklee. I was (trying to) listening to a lot of
George Benson and Robbin Ford at the time, hence the influence!!! I
still was sneaking in WAY too much Yngwie for my own damn good though!
;^)
The first one was (obviously) recorded and produced at Berzerklee by
moi (I was a engineer/producer major) on 24 tracks. I forget what kind
of board was used, but I recorded the guitar (Strat thru a boogie) with
an SM57 (the lead guitar is quadruple tracked!!), the keyboards went
direct, as did the bass guitar (a Musicman). Sax was double tracked,
once with an RE20, and the other with a U47. For drums I used both an
RE20 and a 421 on the kick drum, 421s on the toms, an SM57 on the
snare, 461s in an X-Y pattern for the overheads, and an SM81 on the Hat.
Bill Buckley: Guitar & Bass
Marty Richards: Drums
Toshi: Keyboards
David Wood: Sax
Fallen Angel: Written by Bill Buckley and Steve Centerino
This 2nd tune was also recorded and produced by moi, but on a friends
home 4 track setup (Dana's stuff). This sounds pretty damn good for 4
tracks IMHO! It kind of is an ode to George Lynch, and the main riff
is reminiscent of Mr. Scary, but is in no means a total rip-off!!
It's your basic metal tune...double bass thunder, screaming fast guitar
licks...the works.
The guitar was an Ibanex RG550 in shocking pink thru a *HELLIFIED*
Marshall 50WT Half-stack!! This amp had gain and then some! The bass
was a Fender P-Bass (I don't own em, I just borrow em & play em!) going
direct. Synth was a Kurzweil thingie (I don't do synths & MIDI!).
Drums were simmons pads MIDI'd through some techno-MIDI sampling
kurzweil keyboard crap so it was drawing HR-16 sounds from (I don't
understand it all, really)...hey, it sounded good! Cymbols were miced
with SM81s. Everything was compressed and gated with DBX units.
Verbs, Chorusing * Delays via Alesis.
Bill Buckley: Guitars, Bass, B. Vox, MIDIot
Dana Ruzika: Drums, Synths, Sampling and Synth Programming, B. Vox
Steve Centerino: Vocals

| Heh-heh-heh... This is fun. I didn't have anything recent, so I submitted my
first real recording experience, done on a Ross 4x4. I guess we all engineered
it, but I think I did the final mix. We used a whopping total of 2 mics, an
SM58 and a PL88 EV. I think we used a DDL here too, maybe a chorus pedal-real
high tech. I played the stuff thru a GK250ML with a mic in front of it and
a BC Rich Mockingbird. I also had a broken leg. ;)
Anyhow, the name of the demo I got my cuts off is
"2EZ - Raise The Stakes"
2EZ (was):
Jerry 'Scary' White - Guitar
me - Guitar, vox on 'Lil Teaser Bitch
Roger Talley - Bass, Vox
Steve Whitby - Percussion (and idiotic sounds of passion in 'Bitch)
The first tune I wrote about 4 years ago is called "'Lil Teaser Bitch".
Simple stuff...And I was excited about my delay. It's about a snotty
babe thats really needs a spanking, if you get my drift. ;)
I was gonna rename this: "WishIhadarack"
The second songs lyrics were written by Stray Spreyberry (thats his REAL name
too!), although I can take credit for a good portion of the guitar lix, as
can Scary. I used to get all sappy playing the lead to this tune live.
Special thanks to Scary for pointing out the faults in this band, ;)
and to Sinbad for crapping on the rug everytime Whitby hit the snare
drums.
More thanks to Anhauser Busch, Adolph Coors, Jose Quervo, Chiquita Bananas,
Mr Jack Daniels, Mr James Beam, Tipor Gore (you'll get yours, B*TCH !), George
Lynch, Jamez Hetfield (for vocal inspiration), Winn Dixie Meat Dept, Fourex,
Crest (for sharing mics), Finance South (for the mixer) and last but not
least, GHS Boomer strings and BC Rich guitars.
Famous lines during production:
"Whadaya mean you didn't push the record button ??"
"Is the red light on?"
"Holy sh*t the COPS ARE HERE !"
"...It's your neighbor at the door, Jeff..."
"Gawd, I'm glad Howie isn't doin' this!"
"Here's the key Scary, do yer thing..."

1809.8 | Rich Coccoli/Pariah Effect | GLOWS::COCCOLI | is everybody happy? | Thu May 03 1990 23:08 | 65 |
|
(1) "My Secret Life" by Paul Gierman and Rich Coccoli (Pariah Effect)
Originally a study in the use of dissonance, it quickly became the
funky groove thang that it is today. Paul's lyrics turned it into a
sort of"mutant urban white boy" rap song. Where did the dissonance go?.
It's in there somewhere. Paul on vocals. He usually does sax on this,
But I had to do a solo on it for this tape. Did someone say ego?.
(2) "Pariah" by Rich Coccoli and Paul Gierman (Pariah Effect)
Our band anthem. Definately anti-conglomerate.
Originally I submitted to Greg the band's version. A week later
I wrote my own version. It's much more intense (the original is slow
and dreamy). I wrote most of the lyrics and all of the music.
(3) "Gerbil in my Pocket" by Rich Coccoli
This started out as a threat in the original "Guitarnotes tape?"
topic. I had to carry through. Turned out to be a fun tune, although
I may get in trouble with the ASPCA. I've submitted it to a local college
station and may get some airplay soon (or so they say). I won't hold
my breath.
I like the scratch guitar sound. Reminds of a cross between a strat
and a garbage can cover. Also check out the "dolphin in heat" effect.
_________________________________________________________________
Pariah Effect is a midi-backed two piece band composed of:
Paul Gierman: vocals,flute,sax,twelve-string psycho-acoustic guitar,
various synths and percussion.
Rich Coccoli: vocals, electric and acoustic guitars, midi/synthguitar,
various synths and percussion.
_________________________________________________________________
The midiguitar was used to sequence *all* the instruments on
this submission with the exception of most of the drums, which were
done on a $69 Yamahaha drum pad.
Everything went through a Kawai 8 channel stereo mixer straight into
a Teac Porta 01. All sequenced parts (drums, bass and synths) were
recorded simultaneously to preserve *some* audio integrity and stereo
placement. Track bouncing was only used for vocals and solos.
Equipment:
Casio MG510 midiguitar Effects:
Roland D110 rackmount synth Alesis Midiverb II
Kawai K1r rackmount synth Digitech MSP
Alesis MMT8 sequencer
Yamaha midimerge
Yamaha D10(#?) drum pads
Enjoy....Rich Coccoli

My contribution is Jeff Beck's "Goin Down" as performed **LIVE** by
Deceptive Resolution at last summer's SummerJam. Deceptive Resolution
rehearsed twice and went on and played a 45-minute set. It's not
exactly a high-quality recording, but you'll get the idea. 8-)
For players we had:
(me) Kevin McDonough I'm playing about 75% of the leads,
including the opening fills and the
solo.
Bill Buckley If it sounds mean and metallic, it's WJB.
He's buried in the mix, but hey, this is
MY submission! Check out Bill's
contribution on the tape to really
hear HIM.
Dave Blickstein Wicked keyboards
Joe Jasniewski Wicked bass
Shawn Harrington Wicked vocal
Mike Santos Wicked drums, and the only non-deccie
in the band.
My stage setup was Hagstrom Swede -> Peavey Special 130. No fxs.

Sent in 2 pieces:
Sarabande - J.S. Bach. Slow movement from one of the Lute suites.
Believe this was originally in D-minor.
The Lady and the Unicorn - John Renbourn. Has been one of my favorite
pieces for a long time.
Is sort of pseudo-rennaisance sounding,
rennaisance with minor 7ths, 9ths. He
originally played it on a steel string,
I feel more comfortable on the nylon.
Both are solo guitar, recorded on my 4-track. Nothing fancy in the
recording.
Looking forward to this tape. Sounds like some good stuff!
