MP3 FOR ELECTION SEASON!!

"One Man One Vote" - In 2004 I recorded an original tune called "One Man One Vote" on a cd called "What Are We Fighting For?". I've continued updating it ever since, and recently, I added a whole new bridge to the tune, which really adds a new dimension to the tune. This new version was recorded live with a digital field recorder and one stereo mic. I sang and played acoustic guitar. It's just a simple home sounding but the revision is really worth checking out. Election season is here.

Drowning Man

Robert Ross (vocals & guitar, and George Morales (drums) performing Robert's original tune "Drowning Man" as a duo at Manhattan Neighborhood Network (MNN) on the windy and bitter cold night of January 7, 2014. Mike Tapp (aka Branekandi) did a masterful job with all aspects of the production. Adam Levine has been asking to hear this, so here it is.

We're The Ninety-Nine

"We're The Ninety-Nine" is based on the wonderful union song "Which Side Are You On?" Music & original lyrics by Florence Reece in 1931. I wrote a new lyric in 2011 about the Occupy Wall Street movement, and the "too big to fail" banks. I did the vocals & guitar, engineering, and video. This is my first attempt at a video using a montage of photos, graphics, and cartoons that I downloaded from the internet.
