Holiday Technology Meltdown!
Yikes!
Just in time for the holidays, my studio machine melted down AGAIN. I seem to be having a poltergeist on the main system drive--this is the third time in 6 months, after no trouble in the previous 5 years. Boo. That's what I get for doing a system update just before I needed to record. Bad monkey!
I got it running again, but not in time to track anything this weekend--still have to reinstall all the recording software etc. So, as I'm wont to do in such situations, I fished through the archives. For your entertainment then, following in the theme of the recent Riley reunion: a recording of Riley playing Zappa's "Magic Fingers" live on WBFO from back in 1998 (I think? If not, hopefully one of the other Riley dudes will correct me).

If my memory serves, only a few people have copies of this recording, so hopefully it will be of interest. There's also a clip of us playing this on YouTube at the reunion show last month, but this one is ready to slip into your iTunes. Whee!
Everyone please have a safe and wonderful holiday; the Squeakytunes will resume in the first week of 2009!
