These recordings aren't necessarily meant to be taken seriously. They
have humor value or historical context that may only be appreciated by
those "in-the-know." Often the quality is low, as these were not
intended to be audiophile-grade recordings.

| Ben's Maggots |
744KB [0:47] 128Kbit
44.1KHz |
Recorded in the Spring of 1995 in Alden Hall (during New Voices
13) to 2-track
cassette. Features Ryan Smart (vocals, guitar), Steve Richardson
(bass), and Mike Andrews (maggots). The song was
written by Ryan Smart and Christine
Jesensky. This is an historic piece detailing the
maggot incident after Limey's
nasty car accident
in December of 1994. A true classic in the spirit of
Woodstock, the Beatles, and that static you get between radio
stations. For the ultra-curious, the lyrics are on the
web.

to 2-track cassette. Remixed July 1999 at Tangent Studios mk III (added crowd,
reverb, etc). Features Ryan Smart (ranting), Steve Richardson
(bass), Mike Andrews (saxophone). This song was completely improvised
when we were trying to come up with goofy introductions for the New
Voices festival. I started in with the bass line and Ryan went to
town with the words.
