Notes: Aromaraga is an improvised instrumental that we recorded at Cafe' Aroma in Idywild, California on May 15th, 2008. I've played the echo-plex sounding, Drop-D tuning guitar part at gigs over several years. On this particular night, which happened to be my birthday, it seemed particularly magical and we happened to be recording.
You can hear people chattering in the background and sometimes even a baby who was sitting right in front of us. Joining Dorojo (Don Reed, Robin Rabens, and myself) were Paul Carman, an alumni of the Frank Zappa Band and Mark Simonian. When we play in this configuration we jokingly call ourselves Dorojomapa.
