waitingmanFor the curious, here's the SoundCloud link to the track we finished last night
Years ago, Long-Suffering Partner found & bought me an 'electric' kazoo - basically a plastic kazoo with a piezo microphone attached & an instrument cable running from it you can plug into an amplifier, or effects unit, or direct to a recording device. It lives in the case with my guitar pedalboard, but I've never really found a serious use for it - great for a laugh, but not something you'd necessarily play, well, seriously... until last night. Having intentionally not taken any instruments to what was mostly going to be a mixing session, we decided the track was a little too sparse & needed some extra sounds. Out with the electric kazoo!!
It's been effected to hell & back, of course, via my pedalboard, so you wouldn't really know it's me looking faintly ridiculous tootling away... Now you do
