Baghdaddy-O (IL5) Recorded 5/9/93

(HS) Although Jugalbandi's mantra has always been "experimentation", when Greg and I first formed the band our repertoire naturally drew heavily from material we had previously played in Dog Neutral. "Baghdaddy-O" was a Dog Neutral group composition (although as with most of DN's material, the melody was written by Greg), and this performance provides sort of a bridge between the two bands. The song's middle-eastern feel was particularly appropriate for Jugalbandi, and the drone that Greg sets-up is strongly reminiscent of the tanpuri drone that often accompanies sitar/tabla duets in north Indian classical music. As a Jugalbandi vehicle, Greg and I always kept "Baghdaddy-O" as an IL5, although if we were to ever perform the song live again there's no reason why we couldn't stretch it out into IL4 territory, should the muse strike us.

(GS) I wasn't entirely sure we could pull off this one with just the two of us, but after concocting this stripped down arrangement, it worked out fine. I'm really happy with this performance, as it shows we could (and can) be tight and concise. It's also just a really kickass version of the piece. (A Dog Neutral recording of it will eventually surface, we promise.)
