jon_chaissonMore Bohemian Goodness...
To add my two cents--or, as it were, four songs--to the excitement of the eighteenth anniversary of The Flying Bohemians, I give you the following...
In a Dream This is actually a![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
head58 solo song, but dammit, I wish I'd written it. A very REM-ish track by way of the Cure in terms of lyrics. I remember learning it when he'd given me the chords but not a recording of it, and thus my version (which I never got around to recording) is slightly different. This is what...1991 as well?
Look at the Blank Sunlight
This is the songemmalyon was talking about that she likes so much. Really, this was a bass melody I'd come up with in college. The fact that h58's keyboard countermelody was made up on the spot shows how frighteningly well we worked together on tracks like this. I remember playing it to him and his response: "Very David Lynch." ;) One of the first sessions that we had in 1990, post-Nathane.
She Sang to Me Like a few other songs of that time (like "Drop" and "Dimanche"), this is a repetitive riff that I'd come up with while under the influence of shoegaze. This one is interesting in that I'm on electric and h58 is on acoustic, and we're both playing different phrasings with the same chords. And yet another example of bad poetry turned into a good song. ;) Dated about 1991.
And don't say I didn't warn you:
Green Coffee!!! One of the few songs we have with Nathane on it. He's on guitar, h58 is on bass and vocals, and I'm on h58's cheesy-ass sampler keyboard. Dated late 1989, I believe. The less said about this the better. ;)
Hope you enjoy!

Now I'm wanting to go tune up the General's little acoustic guitar, dammit.
