@proisle Hi there! Yup, those are lyrics from "Town Hall" which if I remember rightly is a song on my "Tombac Vibe" album, on Side 1. Great to see the lyrics again, and thanks for the input. ..And those electric vibes are still with me!

This is easily my favorite album I own in my collection. Everything about this record is absolutely the geatest LP EVER.....

[WatsonWood]

@kaewonder84 Thanks for the enthusiasm and appreciation! I am working on a new album at the moment and your comments remind me not to wander too far from the source!

Nice. Is that an ebow? Trippy grooves goin on there.

[WatsonWood]

Thanks for your appreciation! It is not an ebow, nor a guitar. It is a Deagan Electravibe played through an Electro Harmonix Black Finger Sustain, Volume Pedal, Big Muff Fuzz and a couple of others. Electric vibes, bass and drums, no guitar. 100% Vibrarock...

hey robert

great playing. i would never think the music was created by vibes. just fantastic. love the sound. by the way is the mike matthews freedom amp the one from the early seventies that was black with a 10 inch speaker, solid state and 40 dcell batteries. i still have one, but the batteries leaked and no amp tech's in chicago will try to repair it.

peace,

rich

Very creative stuff! It is innovative to approach the vibes that way.
