NEW MP3 !!
"One Man One Vote" - In 2004 I recorded an original tune called "One Man One Vote" on a cd called "What Are We Fighting For?". I've continued updating it ever since, and recently, I added a whole new section of the tune, a bridge, which really adds a new dimension to the tune. This new version was recorded live with a field recorder and one mic. I sang and played acoustic guitar. It's just a simple home sounding but the revision is really worth checking out. Election Day is coming, and this being Halloween I thought a good song about our top down democracy and corrupt political system was a good idea because there ain't nothin' scarier then that.
