DISCOGRAPHY PART 2
PART 2 starts with the "Boys R Back in Town" Cassette. It was limited to 100 and sold most of them at a show in willy t.'s basement, where i later lived for a year and a half or so, and where Rafiki's Vision was recorded. "Boys R Back" was recorded by Loney Hutchins at his house.
After the tape sold out we pressed our first "LP", we made 500 for our two month summer 2008 tour with Meemaw that we did in the veggie oil bus. Most of the LP is the "Boys R Back" recordings, but theres also a "Letho" song and some recordings from the radio in Rhode Island from our first tour in 2006.
Jamaica tape is a split with Reid and Wright. Some of it will be re-released soon. we performed these three songs once at Little Hamilton in nashville after recording them. We did the show under the name "Refreshing Myst". Theres 100 of them floating around somewhere. it was recorded to 4-track cassette.
Next we have 2 split 7"s that were released at the same time. The first is a split with Screaming Females that has "Bone Jam" plus a secret jam from Letho on our side. There was 300 of these, it never got re-pressed.
Then the split with Sisters, it features an over 6 minute long version of mind ride recorded by Loney Hutchins thats got hand drums, dual guitar solos, a gong, keyboards through wah wahs, etc etc. The art is front and back hand silkscreened by Sisters, it was a co-release with Death By Audio Records. It was also limited to 300 and never re-pressed.
Rafiki's Vision is an "album" we recorded in willy t's basement on my tascam 4-track cassette recorder. The last track on side A and all of side B was edited from a 25 minute improvisational piece called "Rafiki's Vision". It's one of my favorite things we've ever recorded.
Then we did a single that was on Crystal Swan Records, it was their only release. They pressed 300. Never re-pressed. The B-side was the CD only bonus track on Heavy Days.
SCALE MODEL GUITARS
IF ANYONES BEEN WONDERING WHAT THE HELL THE GUITAR IS THAT IVE BEEN JAMMING ON LATELY, OUR BUDDY DAVE JOHNSON MADE IT FROM SCRATCH!!! WE DESIGNED IT TOGETHER, ITS MEANT TO KINDA LOOK LIKE AN OLD GIBSON SG BODY WITH A FIREBIRD HEADSTOCK, AND THE NECK IS BASICALLY JUST LIKE MY OLD GUITAR THAT GOT STOLEN. THE BODY IS MADE OUT OF LUCITE AND THE PICKUP IS HALF A HUMBUCKER THAT WAS CUSTOM WOUND FOR THE GUITAR. YOU CAN CHECK OUT DAVE'S WEBSITE HERE:

DISCOGRAPHY PART 1
I'm gonna try and post everything weve ever released here, this is part one.
"I Like You" CD-R was our first release. we were really young, i dont think its very good. it was recorded in the office at our parents house in 2001 i think.
then after that we did "Byzantine Empire" our second CD-R album. this was recorded in our parents living room im pretty sure. theres a 30 minute improv song smack in the middle of the album which was a weird decision to make during sequencing..
then we didnt do anything for a while and then in 2005 i think is when we did our first 7" which was 2 songs from the "Byzantine Empire". the 7" came with a DVD with 3 music videos on it.
then after that we finished up "Castle Storm" which we did on a real CD. i guess that came out in 2006 pretty sure, it was recorded at the castle studio in franklin thats on the cover of the cd. supposedly the castle is haunted which must be why i broke like 20 guitar strings. we recorded it in 2 days i think.
Before that we released a DVD called "ALIVE at the Basement" which was just a live DVD with some funny clips at the end. it was us playing most of castle storm at the Basement in Nashville. I think we made 100 of them.
then we did "The Brotherhood" CD-R which was on my other label Stoneham Tapes. Theres 33 copies of it. Then after that we decided to change our band name from "JEFF" to "JEFF The Brotherhood"
