Archived Recordings

The three of us have turned up and have had a bit to drink. Are we now twelve, in total? Was I
playing on my keyboard in a loud shirt and a Panama hat? Everyone’s chatting, or someone’s
playing with the volume control. They’ve replaced my CD with one of their own.

This page links to various recordings from my personal diary archive. They may be streamed live using Real Player. This is an experiment in granting an unusual privilidge to strangers, disregarding the customary concerns for privacy. Some of these recordings are very old, some are very personal. Please smile with me at the often miscalculated adolescence.
Please note that the sound quality of these recordings is generally very bad. Please adjust your volume to optimal level. If you can't make out a single word, then I hope you find the smooth, mumbling tones medicinal.
