if I were to give a sobriquet to my one man band/guitar army of one I'd call it wet tuna. live behind the name...but I went vintage like all those private press folk in the loners & stoners bag. went with the MV thing. somethin' about the vibe of those dank 60's/70's singer songwriters nude under their own grace. accountable. I saw de la soul once at a house party on strong island...drove a ways. I dig chill...high and rising. saw the freeport exit on the way between a circus and sewer, cranked a VU boot. I met davy graham once but he said "I'm not the Davy Graham you know". I've always dug jorma...acoustic & electric -> imagine if that's what i named our dog. spectrasound. wet channel, wetware…DIG, back in 1999 i founded a label called THE CHILD OF MICROTONES TERRAN LIBRARY OF EXPLORATORY MUSIC, C.O.M. for short. it was named after a joseph jarman/art ensemble quote…we released "intimate" music, music for one…or 99. back in the day the third "private press" we did on our label was reissued on wax by nemo. this C.O.M. is also on time-lag. #99. go figure. blazing grace, hashtag love.

THIS IS C.O.M. 47!
