Halloween Harmonies

Track or Treat

I've made a CD of some of my favorite artists' songs which somehow relate to Halloween (however tenuously).  Thought I'd share it.  All of these are here in streaming and downloadable MP3 versions, should you care to make your own CD (this list conveniently fills a standard CD-R with just 20 seconds left to spare).  Let me know if there are any songs I should have included instead.
(WINDOWS USERS WHO ARE USING FIREFOX AND WHO ARE ALSO USING THE VLC MULTIMEDIA PLUG-IN MAY HAVE TO DISABLE THAT PLUG-IN IN ORDER TO USE THE STREAMING CHOICE.)

Roots Cafe 2011

As you know, Matt and I played at the Roots Cafe on the 9th, and I've uploaded the videos to YouTube for your listening and viewing pleasure.  Some songs were better than others, so here's the ones I thought were the best:

"True Lover's Time" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROPZE8Jizv8


"Maybelline" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gubup6CfHGw


"Thirty Years Ago" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssyZEBSXr58


"Marie" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilbCECggdek


If you click on the link for any of these it's easy to navigate your way to the rest of them, or just go to my YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/grebztinmas) and they're all there in the Uploads section -- including one where our friend Howard Markman did a song of his with Matt.
