This is a live 1982 rehearsal of Babe Ruth's The Mexican, played by Mario's Band: John Saja - vocals, tamborine Mike (Boom Boom) Borror - bass Eddie Picard - drums Robbie Daug - guitar This was September 1982. We used to practice upstairs of a Montreal restaurant called, Mario Submarine. Seeing as our band never went as far as having a name, we decided to call ourselves, Mario's Band. Poor John, we should have done songs by The Rolling Stones or The Doors because that's the type of voice he had. Even though this song was really out of John's vocal range, he still did a pretty good job. We were all 22 years old when we recorded this. We recorded this with a portable Pioneer tape player/radio which was strategically placed in the hall to record all of us as best as possible with the built-in stereo microphones. Don't mind when it starts, the other three pressured me to try to play the opening of this song (i never tried to learn it as i knew we would never use it on stage). The first bit got erased over the years, and this is what's left of it. I hope you like this. My guitar sound, by the way, is coming from a blonde Ibanez (Blazer Series) going into an original 1970's Electroharmonix Big Muff (before there were lights on them) and an MXR Dynacomp (compressor) and ending up in a Roland Cube 60 amp. There is no video so i just took a video of the wave editor on my screen after i copied the song from a audio cassette to my hard drive so i could record the play back in mpeg ...
