Problems at Session 11, audio
Problems at Session 11! I suppose it is okay to have fun while everything else is falling to pieces. I got a terrible case of asthma, and am laid out sick. Lungs are inflamed. Getting my strength back, went to the doctor.. For a giggle listen to this (smiles).
a little catching up to do
I wanted to drop everybody a note to explain where I have been and what has been going on.. I have been very busy with music, a lot of it practice. Drilling major keys in the circle of fifths for the fluent in music of you out there. Been practicing hours and hours a day, doing this on Bass, which is a relatively new instrument of mine. I am trying to get a good idea where the notes are, being that it […]

Troxell- lead vocals, acoustic guitar, and keyboards. Giffin- Acoustic Bass, and Sound Engineer. (John Mellencamp- songwriter) David […]

Introducing David Troxell’s Music
Set n Her Ways by David Troxell I had a wonderful opportunity to work with David Troxell today. I ran into him over coffee. He said that he had written a new tune called,”Set n Her Ways”, which is featured in the audio file above. Came over to my studio. I played the Bass on this song that he composed. Then he played all the other instruments, as I acted as his sound engineer. Amazing to watch this man work. Find tons […]
