Whistling Dixie . . .

. . . we are NOT

. . . Jay and Bill were hard at work tuning the saxophone track for Slough of Despond, enhancement of which was the raison d'etre for the gathering.  As a damp, cold evening fell upon the small, neat Woodlawn neighborhood, a weather forecast for icy precipitation and a slight apprehension regarding its veracity were among my thoughts upon my arrival.  David appeared shortly thereafter and the work (fun?)/fun (work?) continued. Some subtle and some not-so-subtle revisions, such as adding a whistling melody to the first verse, were administered as we plough through the slough towards completion. . .

. . . we may have arrived!  Listen. . .



Slough of Despond

(by OHO,  Jay Graboski, David Reeve & Ray Jozwiak with added whistling by Bill & David and new tweaks, pulls, pushes, drags, tunings and other edits at Bill Pratt's Bratt Studio January 23, 2015.)

Penned . . .

. . . by Jay (Graboski, of OHO) just before producing the aural jewel posted below . . . 



Back to The Bratt this AM to mix "P.G.F." (Paleolithic Goddess Figurine") into completion. Basic tracks recorded at Steve Carr's (OHO bassist, Mach III, 1985-2002) Hit & Run Studio in the mid 90's and recently overdubbed at David's Blue Ball Road recording facility, inspired oddly enough, by Cher's character in "The Witches of Eastwick," compelled as she was to mold clay into countless PGF's, necessarily forcing the manifestation of Mr. D (Jack Nicholson). Let the dance begin (again)! "Here is a principal mythological role of the feminine principle. She gives birth to us physically, but she is mother too of our second birth--our birth as spiritual entities. This is the basic meaning of the 'virgin birth' (Merry Christmas!), that our bodies are born naturally, but at a certain time there awakens in us our spiritual nature, which is the higher human nature...In this sphere of the mystery dimension the woman represents the awakener, the giver of birth in that sense." -Joseph Campbell

Paleolithic Goddess Figurine
by John P. Graboski, performed by OHO - Jay Graboski, David Reeve and Ray Jozwiak and the frequently unmentioned but NEVER unappreciated-Bill Pratt
