Hey, friend.
My sad cuisine cries out for relief from my poor culinary decisions. Like someone watching their own surgery being performed by a drunken doctor.
There’s some anthropomorphism right there.
Anyhow, the video for “Epiphany” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGfyxyXSxec) will be shown on Songdoor.com this week.
Stay frosty.

Dirty Red Pagan thanks you. And as Peter Cetera once said , “Ooh ooh wee. Pretty momma look (sic) good to me. Yes indeed, little Miss Lovin.”
Here ’tis. in audio.
And here it is in video form:
I play “My Cecile” and “Water” from the new CD, “Dirty Red Pagan”.
CDs available through my website in a few weeks.
Dopapod is a fantastic jam band but more than that. We do tightly constructed songs but I might break out “Monkey and Bunny”.
Here we have the delicious talents of Marko Marisic on the guitar, Oyku (Queenie) Bilgili on keyboards (two of them!) and that delightful pixie of percussion, Ken Ray Wilemon. And…me.
Tonight at Motorco in Durham! Opening for Dopapod. It’s a palindrome. The first “o” is long. Thank god for that.
So I think I’m going to stick with “Dirty Red Pagan” as the CD’s title, but nothing is set in stone until it’s set in type. One thing I do know is that I’m meeting a nice fellow to talk about video shoots for two of the songs. Starting as well to put the art work together. If you know any CD manufacturing place that does short run CD duplication with booklets, please contact me. “Thank you” to all the folks who supported this endeavor through Kickstarter.com or just because they’re friends and wanted to help me out. I’m being shopped to various TV and movie productions as well as searching for the elusive publishing thingie. Stay tuned!
All the recording on my end is finished, and the product is now in the hands of the one, the only, Darrell Nutt, another Buffalo expat living in Florida, just like powerhouse drummer Steve Camilleri. I have had the good fortune to work with Marko Marisic on hard guitar parts, Pamela Henderson on backing vocals, Ken Denny helped me to record some acoustic parts and vocals, the wonderful Matt Douglas on saxamaphone…
The title of the CD has changed as well. More on that later, but I got the inspiration from a certain hero of mine from a little band called XTC, big in the day. Still #1 with me. The upshot is that this will be wonderful!
NC peeps: Say NO to Amendment One May 8. Remember: Any love is good love. Why do people hate love?
If you want a CD copy of GGN’s first CD, “Drink The Beast With Me”, please send your address to gilbertgeorgeneal@gmail.com and we’ll be happy to send you one gratis. Or five. It’s the only one that was produced in such quantities that we have lots left over.
