Written by Mike, Hollywood was arranged by the band as all of Magik Dayze’s songs were. Robin provides some great chord comping and lead work on this tune. Doug and Mike play a solid rhythm section and Charles adds some very tasty Mellotron and synth work. The bass on this track is a 1965 pawn shop Fender Precision that was purchased in Indianapolis – home of the “Waffle House”. It was rehabbed by Murphy-Shaw in Kalamazoo with new frets, a new clear coat on the neck, DiMarzio pickup and Badass bass bridge.
“Sea Me Home” sets sail in the download store
Sea Me Home is the story of a sea captain in the day of mythical voyages in a world ruled by the whim of the Gods–much like today…
Its a lyrical piece written by Robin and arranged by the band. A brooding bass and drum beat is offset by lilting electric guitar rhythms and synth and tron accents. The melodic vocal line holds it all together. I don’t remember if we ever performed this song live but its one of my all time favorites. Didn’t make it to vinyl. I think Robin is playing his custom Murphy-Shaw guitar on this track.
