NEW VIDEOS!!
Robert Ross (vocals & guitar, and George Morales (drums) performing Robert's original tune "Drowning Man" as a duo at Manhattan Neighborhood Network (MNN) on the windy and bitter cold night of January 7, 2014. Mike Tapp (aka Branekandi) did a masterful job with all aspects of the production. Check it out here: http://j70.video2.blip.tv/14350012313986/Branekandi-ThrowMeALifeline893.m4v?ir=9155&sr=880
"We're The Ninety-Nine" is based on the wonderful union song "Which Side Are You On?" Music & original lyrics by Florence Reece in 1931. I wrote a new lyric in 2011 about the Occupy Wall Street movement, and the "too big to fail" banks. I did the vocals & guitar, engineering, and video. This is my first attempt at a video using a montage of photos, graphics, and cartoons that I downloaded from the internet.
