George Cooke has the following tapes of his music available :
The Toad (1997)- This is the "Frances" tape. My daughter was born in April of
1997, so all the songs are about her. Includes the 13 minute narrative
"Frances is Born", "The Mightiest of the Toads", and "Frances Hale-Bopp".
More about Frances than you might want to know.
Appearing at the Seneca County Correctional Facility and Senior Citizen Garden Project
(1996)- A very song oriented tape. No narratives. Introduces the
Hammond Organ. Also introduces the Hammond Quintet (Hammond, Harmonica,
Banjo, Bass, and Drums) on "Working for the Man". Also includes "Water Under
the Bridge", "Where's My Dinner, Tracy Bonham?", and "Slime Them Pits".
Community Joe (1995)- The "Dark" tape. Those who heard this tape first like
it the best. Others are not so sure. Introduces the Mandolin. Includes the
narrative "Corn Field Moon". Also includes "Everything is Flat #1 and #2",
"When the Sun Goes Nova", and "I'm Going to be a Park Ranger".
Skinnydipping (1994)- A fun, personal tape. As Scott Mitchell says, "Its
kind of like looking into George's underwear drawer." Includes "Gonna Set
Them Pins Down", "Motorcycle Girl", "I Didn't Know that You Owned this Road",
and "The summer when I was 13".
Songs 1992-1993 (1993)- The first in this series. Includes "How Could You"
and "I am a Sound Guy, I live in a Rock and Roll Club".
