Because I
doubt that the world is looking for a 38 year old balding
pop
star, I've decided that this small, electronic space is my
best bet
for sharing my music. I hope you enjoy, please let me
know what you think. |

Solo
Projects
- NEW! If
You Forget Me When I'm Gone: Another fully solo
production complete
with video! This is my idea of a Willie Nelson style
country/western
song.
- Tell
Me:
This is a Barry Clark composition that I recorded in
honor of Barry's
50th birthday, July 2008.
- Rainbows
End: A song I wrote for Molly's
birthday a few years back (I'll do
anything to avoid shopping!).
- One
Last
Time: I wrote this almost 15 years ago but never
got around to
doing anything with it. Then over Christmas break 2007
I had an entire
week to myself and decided to record a song on my own
and picked this
one. When I say I did this on my own, I really mean
it. This is me on
drums, guitars, bass & vocals. Bit of a vanity
project, but now I
know I can do it!
- If
I
Loved You Anymore: This was meant to be a sort
of "femme fatale"
kind of song, but it ended up just being creepy. Rae
Kraemer on vocals
and Andrew Mork on drums.
- Oregon
Roads: I work for Tektronix,
and every once in a while I get asked to produce music
for corporate
events. This one is sort of an oddball; I put this
together with a
couple of co-workers when one of our executives
retired. I like the way
this turned out, but everything that's good about it
can be attributed
to John Denver. And, of course, my very talented
co-workers Debbie
& John.
- Mothers
Day:
I wrote and recorded these songs as gifts for my
mother, Dale Gadue. I think I'm going to try to keep
this tradition
going; in about 10 years I'll have enough for an
album!

The
Sessions
Kick ass rock and roll
power
trio with Andrew
Mork on drums and Todd Murphy on bass. November 2006
through January 2012. Check out our website
(with demos) at www.sessionsrock.com
It's always tough to catch lightning in a bottle, but this
recording comes closest to capturing our live sound. A cover
of Bob Dylan's Outlaw Blues: http://sessionsrock.com/outlaw_blues.mp3

Big Dumb
Animals:
For lots more,
please see our official site bigdumbanimals.com.
What you see below are mostly working drafts.
- Deep
Roots: Big Dumb Animals had the chance to
participate in Deep
Roots 10.
- June:
(a Barry
Clark original; this is just an off the cuff demo he
laid down for the
band to learn the tune)
- Living
Large: A Rae
Kraemer
original.
- Smoke
And
Wings: Another one of Rae's tunes.
- Senseless:
This was originally recorded in 1997 for our first
demo. I acquired the
original tracks and re-mixed them, plus had Rae record
harmony vocals.
- Barfly
Baby: Another of our original demo tunes,
remixed and added Rae.
- Bitch
Better
Have My Money: A Rae Kraemer original. This was
written for
her friends going away party. A totally serious song
right up until the
end, then the rest of us assert ourselves.
- Simplicity:
A brilliant Barry Clark original. This recording
remains in it's
embryonic state. We'll get back to this one soon.
- Too
Little
Too Late: You know the old joke "what's the last
thing the
drummer said before he left the band..? 'hey guys,
let's play one of
mine.'" Well, we let our drummer get away with one
here. This Chris
Lamb composition has been in
our rotation for years, and we're still just getting
around to
recording it. Andrew Mork is sitting in on drums on
this one.
