Click on a song TITLE below (in blue) to download & hear the Tascam DP01FX 8-track demo song recordings (in either wma or mp3 format) or scroll to the bottom of the page & use the player. The songs were mixed using headphones so I suggest that's what you listen to them with. I make no assurances as to the mix on anything else they're played on. Adjust EQ to taste!

HERE's my latest recording studio setup if your interested. No computers involved...

Lead music sheets were transcribed by Jim Snarski from the demo recordings.
Additional musical arrangements & instrumentation sheet music for the production created by Mike Blakeslee.

I tried to capture some of the wonderful innocence & memories of my youth with these songs and story. Watching tv shows like the Sid & Marty Kroft stuff, the Monkees, the Carol Burnett show, Gilligan's Island, Monty Python and some of my favorite movies from that time - The Point & The Phantom Tollbooth and of course, the Dean Martin/Jerry Lewis movies. I hope i succeeded, at least a bit... ah, the good old days!

These songs were written to be played by a single acoustic guitar during production with the exception of the FGRap tune (production ver.) which is a pre-recorded piece meant to be played on a ghetto blaster or through a PA system.

PLEASE NOTE!!!
The song LYRICS in the script supercede those of the song demos as the songs were written first!
Please reference the script for changes, notably 'Why Not Me', 'FGRap' & 'In Me'.
