The last of the circa 1995 messy unauthorized covers, by Catastrophic Audio, of Beatles tunes.
Particularly bodacious, messy, and best listened to aggravatingly loud…
#11. Mean Mister Mustard – Polythene Pam – She Came In Through The Bathroom Window.
And lastly (always better than last)…
#12. You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away.
Vocals by me. Instrumentation [...]


Wasn’t going to post this one but Marty convinced me to. I like the chorus but when I hear what else I did to it, especially at the end there, I feel like our ever reincarnating cockroach, Fred, scuttling as the light hits. Except for last night, finally caught in the bathroom, on [...]


More messy unauthorized covers, by Catastrophic Audio, of Beatles tunes.
#8. You Can’t Do That.
#9. Things We Said Today.
Vocals by me. Instrumentation and engineering by Marty. Co-produced by Marty and me.
The previous Unauthorized Messy Covers are under the “The Unauthorized Cover” category. I’ve been saying they’re from 1997 but that [...]


I finished the conversions last night of this particular batch of the Unauthorized Messy Covers by Catastrophic Audio (me and Marty) that we did in 1997 and will be putting them up over the next couple of days.
#7. We Can Work It Out.
The above is particularly messy.
Vocals by me. All instrumentation by Marty. [...]

Another Unauthorized Messy Cover by Catastrophic Audio. (Been a while since I’ve posted one of these.)
#6. Baby’s in Black.
Vocals by me. All instrumentation by Marty. Engineered by him and co-produced by Marty and me. Recorded 1997.
The previous Unauthorized Messy Covers are under the “The Unauthorized Cover” [...]


Hadn’t planned on this being the next Unauthorized Cover I’d put up but they’re talking about “She said she said” over at Heretik’sso here it is. She said she said.
As with the rest. I’m the vocal. Marty did music and production (I assisted).
Again, mid 90s.
Links to the others are under the “music” [...]


Been a while since I’ve posted one of the unauthorized covers. This one is Helter Skelter.
As with the rest. I’m the vocal. Marty’s the music and production but I helped produce all of these though, which was a hell a lot of fun. Again, mid 90s.
Links to the others [...]


Following up Revolution and
Happiness is a Warm Gun…
Thought I’d go with Lennon’s Gimme Some Truth.
Again 90’s production, Marty doing music and me vocal. Was a fun one.


Following up Revolution, I promised Buck Hill the next Idyllopus unauthorized nonrelease of a cover would be Mac and Lennon’s “Happiness is a Warm Gun.”
Here it is.
Again. Excellent music track by husband. Vocals by moi (either one likes or one does not). I can’t really think of anything much to say in the [...]


Can I do this? Inspired by Buck Hill pointing to Copy, right?…here’s a little never released, basement cover of Mac and Lennon’s “Revolution”. Courtesy of Idyllopus. Done back in the roarin 90’s. And lest you think it’s a joke. I love this cover. But then I would. Not [...]
