-DeeT's 70s Family Album

Here are some early recordings that really don't fit in any of the other sections. They're a bit more personal and aren't as closely tied to 70s popular culture. They're very -DeeT, but nonetheless they're also very fun and very seventies.

The 70s I Lived

I loved my microphone so much I would sometimes sing to it. (1973)
And even as a little kid, I understood the technical stuff. (1973)
Some fellow second graders and I sing popular songs. (1973)
Even in those early years, my tape recorder has been known to get me into trouble. (1973)
Then again, sometimes it was the listener who was in trouble, for copying a tape (1974) or even just playing it! (1973)
Here I am in 1974 (nearly 8 years old), wailing out Smokin' In the Boys Room.
Here's me in 1976 (10 years old), banging on the piano and singing Evil Woman with much conviction.
On the same day, I also performed with much zeal the Sesame Street classic, You've Got To Count It Higher. Originally sung by a (male) muppet named Chrissy. This clip is in RealAudio format.
Seven-year-old -DeeT improvises a record TV offer from a printed record club ad, getting some right, some wrong, and some completely off the deep end! A revealing peek at our musical past, through the very distorted eyes of a little kid. This clip is in RealAudio format.

The 70s I Miss

Here are some recent personal attempts to bring back some of the magic of those years.

I wrote several 70s Stories to an email friend. They're just my foggy recollections of some uniquely 70s experiences from my past.
In 1990, I remade Neil Young's classic A Man Needs A Maid on my keyboard and four track. This clip is in RealAudio format.
From 1992 to 1994, I played in a 70s light rock trio called Softedge. We had only bass, guitar and vocals, but what vocals! Here we are in RealAudio format doing Summer Breeze, Fire And Rain, Old Man, Killing Me Softly, and It's Too Late.

Yours in the seventies...
