Download The Gabbler on iTunes as you can’t just listen to him once!

Sounds Like: James Brown, Devo

This crazy funk tune covers 50 topics in under 6 minutes - from hip hop to car parking and trucking conventions to Cameron Diaz. The Gabbler squawks and screeches over an epileptic funk groove like a whipped James Brown before settling into the cheesy schizophrenic Devo rhythm tracks whichprovide the backing to the hilarious rapid fire tales.The vocals for the track were supplied by Richard Dean (AKA GroverJ) with the original recorded conversation being cut down from 22 minutes to less than 6.

The funky drums in the chorus were played by Sam Geogheagan who commented that I had cut the groove backwards after listening to the final mix! The keys and electronic drums on the track were played on the MC-50 a cheap and appropriately cheesy $50 Chinese keyboard.The animated video clip of the Gabbler is a work in progress which can be viewed on the Multimedia page. It has simply been too time consuming trying to find the right images…

The Gabbler Lyrics

Think of all the rappers in the States that you’ve never heard of
Yeah there’s 100’s of them
They’ve all got fly bitches
They all claim to have Mercedes
They’ve got a big big crib
They’ve got a fly ride, packing nines
Some of them have got Mach tens
Some of them are from Miami, others are from Detroit
A lot of them are talking about St. Louis
Yeah but it’s just Yeah its just a thing
Its on one side its on the other side
I don’t think there are a lot of Southern Black acts
But the east coast has certainly got them
All around New Jersey, New York
YOU WANNA GO TO NEW JERSEY AT THIS TIME OF NIGHT!! ……..
