DOG AS MASTER - CORROBOREE
Hal McGee and Mark McGee - a collaboration
originally issued on cassette on the Cause And Effect label, 1986
On Corroboree, recorded Spring 1986, I collaborated with my brother, percussionist Mark McGee, on a foray into primitive tribal industrialism. Mark played drums on all of the early Master/Slave Relationship cassette releases.
Mark McGee: congas, timbales, octo-bans, misc. percussion, synthetic percussion (Pearl Syncussion).
Hal McGee: prepared guitar, synthesizers, acoustic and synthetic percussion, voice, flute, production and concept.
Debbie Jaffe: clarinet on the song "Beating And Changing".
Presented here are two audio files, one for each side of the tape, because quite frankly I can't always tell where a new "song" begins.
