about

Successfully Assimilated, Part 2 (8:15, IL2)
HS: Another piece featuring the tape collage. The voice you hear at the very beginning is on the collage, and belongs to Palmer Harbison, keyboard player for my old band Revolver, exhorting a ballroom full of people to get out and dance while I churned-out the introduction to “Slow Ride” at some almost-forgotten gig in 1976. I begin a classic jazz hi-hat pattern to accompany the collage, the collage changes to Greg singing a Yiddish song and Greg begins accompanying it with some tasty backwards-sounding guitar. I really like the way this piece steadily builds in energy, achieved more through increasing its density than by simply playing louder. I keep adding elements of the drumkit throughout, until I’m pretty much playing balls-out during the last couple of minutes before bringing things back down with the jazz hi-hats at the very end. I love the glassware you hear on the tape collage at 7:00.
GS: You get to hear more of the tape on this, in case you weren’t entirely sure what I was talking about back in the liner notes for part one. For the most part I do let the tape just roll on this, occasionally stepping on pedals and tweaking its signal while I play guitar without effects out of the amp’s other channel.
