I just signed up with this UK band site & uploaded
my Kerouac song as a test, from my forthcoming cd.

The lyrics have been up at my site for a while...

The song was recorded in 5 takes at a friend's apartment studio in Toronto
with musicians who met each other for the first time at the
session. I had brought a demo of the music on a cassette for people
to get a sense of what I wanted & to extrapolate from there. The
lyrics were revised on the spot based on the arrangement the musicians
came up with. It is a very simplified Kerouac homage (cities he lived in,
time he died, his Catholicism, etc) that seems to take on a life of its own
as a music track.... it's a jazzy vibe over a 60s beat....

Anyway, I hope you like it....I have been playing it in my car driving around
late at night and can't shake it out of my cassette deck...
