Flight Of The Fruit Fly-Improv
Flight Of The Fruit Fly-Improv Year: 2015 Genre: Progressive
An idea that came out of a Riff at Band practice. Fruit Flies hovering around with all the sweet summer beers and Twisted Tees. It happened on the spot and grows with intensity. Somehow we manage to reel it in. We love to create. Improv, record the ideas, perfect. It just keeps getting tighter as we craft it. Its a shame the bass player was having a power problem but when he comes back in you will know it. I want to expand on these ideas and flush out. These come together spur of the moment and other mates just jump in. There are 2 other parts to this. 20 min in total.

Another one to flush out. We were a rock band yet when jammed or warmed up this is what came out. My Berklee teachers would be proud or sad that I didn't pursue it earlier. Damn Rock n Roll!!

Jazz Jam

Another great warm up Jam. Band was new and getting the chemistry together. 3 movements. Worth hanging in there as background music. Great ideas and wonderful chemistry.
