You Put The Lime In The Coconut

Lime In The Coconut

 

Of course I love Harry Nilsson.  If you don't love Harry, I'm afraid you don't belong here in the first place.

This recording became in large part an attempt to demonstrate that the bassist is always in charge.  You'll note that there are no key changes at all, and that can become a bit monotonous.  But the bassist, possibly with assistance from the drummer, can cause the rhythm to deviate, thus alleviating the monotony of a song that's entirely in one key.

Or maybe I'm full of doo-doo.

But I do know that I had a shitload of fun doing this and hope you feel the joy.
