This just popped up on YouTube yesterday–a video of an anonymous drummer playing along to our first CD while driving the streets of Chicago. If the author would like to play some steering wheel with us sometime, he should drop us a line.

The tune is ‘Cindy’, from our Just a Spoonful CD. For what it’s worth, it’s the only Frankentake on the first CD (at least that I can remember). For the uninitiated, a Frankentake is a composite of multiple performances, edited together. They can be minor edits (like this one), or major surgery (like Lars Ulrich’s drum tracks, which may come from literally dozens of different takes).

Cindy is a good, old-fashioned Frankentake. Bob Weston pulled out the razor blade, cut the tape, and spliced in a chunk from another, more in-tune performance. The drop out part (’peaches in the summertime…’) comes from an alternate take.
