Rachel (Rodent Version)

This new version has louder chipmunk voices. I wrote the song, sang lead vocal, played piano and other instruments. Ralph Warchol got the drum track from an LP. We altered the speed to create the chipmunk voice effect. That also helped with our perceived instrument playing agility. Ralph played the electric bass and perhaps other instruments, if I remember correctly. I believe this was originally recorded at Faith Chapel Radio Recording Studio in Berwyn (yes, Svengoolie's Berwyn). This dates the original recording because I had access to that studio after I began working there in January of 1981. I released the first version of this song on Jango Radio in 2009. A version of this tune eventually ended up in my CD "Mostly Acoustic" available here: on.soundcloud.com/UssrPNYRW7yURbou5.
