new song / video > corrupt politician blues

corrupt politicians doing their jobs
OK – this took a little longer than planned for a couple of reasons…one was the unstable and crash prone mac book I was editing the video on…seriously – this thing lost hours of edits for no apparent reason – one of the least pleasant editing jobs I’ve done. Also I have been busy with several projects helping other folks with their music, and studio installation, and well, so many hours in the day you know? I wrote this song, hanging it on a fairly straightforward blues bed progression. Originally I wanted to shoot everything from one angle – but I couldn’t figure out how to get the drums by my audio workstation flatscreen…sooo…yeah. Anyway this is written as a response to the greed and crooked politicians we have on all sides of the party fence. Democrats, Republicans, Independents…it seems the only thing you need is the job – and most respond in the appropriately greedy self serving fashion. Throw Them All Out was a book recently written that covers some of the more disgusting aspects of the insider trading scam…and that’s just one of many money grabbing schemes our electeds are wallowing in. So – I include the song, the lyrics, and both QuickTime and Flash video for your listening / viewing pleasure. The small button with the circle streams the song, the video stream is available by pressing the arrow in the black box, and Quicktime is below that. Maybe this song will strike a chord in you…are you feelin those corrupt politician blues baaaaaaybay?
QUICKTIME
