Isn't That Something
Isn't That Something Year: 2007 Album: Dyslexic Begonias Genre: Alternative
For my birthday, I recorded a version of my song "Isn't That Something". It's a throw-back, I think, to my Elvis Costello/Bob Dylan effective protest song period. Maybe. I love the bass line, probably because it was fun to play - it grooves :)
