Description : This was a wonderful collab which I had originally posted a few months ago as an instrumental with the need of of vocal and lyrics. The talented Mack Sanders came through with a pure emotional raw blues tune written from the heart called "Woman's Touch". As the sweet icing on the top of this cake I invited the great Slap Johnson do some superb sax solo work and call and answer sax with the vocals to polish the song to a shine. Thanks so much for the collab fellas. So very much appreciated and an honor to play with such gentlemen like yourselves. Professionals at their finest !

Description : This Corona is for you with a wedge of lime too ! The intro hook should sound familar. Latin rock, with hammond b4, acoustic and flamenco style guitar and some Santana style guitar wankin'. Most people know I am half Spanish...suprisingly the other half is Scottish ! So put on your kilt and sombrero. Grab a haggis taco with me and get ready to party. Comments always welcome. Hasta la vista wee laddies ! - El Bilbozo the Braveheart

Description : It's seems like ages since I have posted a song. Music has always been a great escape for me. Not just the therapeutic creativity of exercising my brain (too much trans-fat up there !), but to dream of being in a peaceful place. Hence the song "Cafe in Peru." It takes me to a place where things are simple, Where the smells of Peruvian coffee, culture, wonderment and mystery. I have travelled to many places in Mexico, Central America Life there is one of passion, values and romance. I am glad I finished this song, because if I had any more of it's atmosphere it produced in my dreams, I might never have come back ! Can I buy you a Mountain Roasted Blend? Enjoy. I wish you Love, family, peace and music.

Description : A cover we recorded for fun..."The Way It Is" (Bruce Hornsby song). With Kevin Marcy on Drums, Scott McLeod on Bass, Karina Sosa on Vocals and myself of guitars and keys. Thanks for listening.

Description : This collab is with the OCR Boys, (Bobby & Steve), DJ's at KickinCountry101.com. I got the bass, acoustic tracks and drums and Bobbys vocals. I dusted off the harmonica, brought out the oldFender Strat, the pedal steel and the midi-guitar for the fiddle parts for this one. Not my usual fare but I had been in a few country bands back when country was cool in the 90's. A great Nashville sounding song about growing up on the great Tennessee River.Comments always welcome. - Bilbozo

Description : I was in a creative heavy mood and I wanted to compose a cool mix of metal and symphonic classical music in a melodic manner. So I pulled out all the stops, lots of keyboard padding, choir voices, classical loops and of course some meaty guitar with lot harmonies and melody solos with some very interesting breaks. The result is a very Cinematic Final Fantasty vibe. This was a blast to conjure up. I hope you all like it. As always comments are most welcome. Cheers, Peace and Love - Bilbozo

Description : Time to get FUNKY ! I asked Mista Perez to come up with a vocal track on a funk tune I wrote a few weeks back. Of course with his vocal and writing talent he knocked it out of tha park as expected. The track also featuresthe keyboard wizardry of Larry T. - The Werewolf (TLT50). Shake that thang vibe ! Comments most welcome, love peace and music ! - Bilbozo

Description : I have the honor and pleasure to do another song with the "Wonder from Down Under" PlanetJazzBass. I love his fusion based playing and it was begging to play on this orchestrial Fusion Track. This is a Blend of Symphonic, Fusion and Rock. Some experimatation made this one real fun. You get new software VSTi's and you feel like a kid in a candy store! Thanks for listening and comments always welcome. - Bilbozo

Description : Meet Mrs. Bilbozo. The first time I have ever had the chance to collaborate with my wife Claudia. I thought it was fitting for Mother's day. Her voice was one of the things that swayed me into marrying her. This one is in Spanish, a traditional love song. This is for all who have lost love but still feel their love is always eternal...we hope you enjoy this song from our family to you. Cheers, love, peace and music. - Bill ( Bilbozo ) and Claudia Smith

Description : One of my best engineering productions to date I think. Great little R&B Song with the vocals of BillyD. Smoky and sultry love song I know you will really enjoy. I would like to thank him for his incredible vocal talent and Buddrumming for his awesome drums & precussion. Some really great sax loops of the great Steve (Slap Johnson) Bone. All other instruments were played by myself, bass, guitars, backup harmonies and keyboards. This is a really special song..great baby making music too heheheh. Comments always welcome. Cheers and peace, love and music.

Description : It's been a while but having lots of fun in the studio on a holiday Sunday !

Description : Another symphonic heavy rock track. I was toying with Symphonic Orchestra, Dimension 4 and Omnisphere. Very realistic orchestra sounds, I just can't get over the qulaity of these programs. I combined it with some heavy guitar to make an epic sountrackesque tune. This one is called Horizon. I have to thank PlanetJazzBass for me to make these kinds of tracks possible. I hope you enjoy my nemesis. Comments of course are always most welcome ! Cheers - your musical friend - Bilbozo

Description : An old Scottish Celtic Traditional Folk Song. My dad used to play this one when I was a young lad. The melody always stuck in my head and meant something to me, when I heard it again, it brought back some great memories of my younger days. Funny how music can take you away to another time and place. Music is such a powerful trigger. Anyhow I played all the instruments and sang on this one. Not my usual type of musical fare but I still hope you enjoy it.

Description : You don't hear much of any traditional country here so here ya go ! I had the opportunity to play with a couple of fine country gents. "Crazy Over You" featuring country legends Buddrumming on Drums, Scott "Bassman" McLeod on bass and vocals, and Bilbozo on guitars, pedal steel and background vocals. Some porch style country fun. Perfect for the Valentines Cowboy ! We hope you like it and comments always welcome...yeeeehar lol ! - Bill ( Bilbozo )

Description : It's always exciting to get the opportunity to collab with other guitar players on Looperman. One of was Pete (SPD2). Pete justy impressed me with his picking, aggressive style, killer vibrato. So right away if we were going to collab it would have to be something heavy, intense and dynamic. Arena style rock/metal that boils in your blood like a seringe of caffeine. Pete and I hope you enjoy Metalshop 101 and of course feel free to leave some comments.

Pete you killed this one, great work my friend. Get your lighters ready...

Love, Peace and music - Bilbozo

Description : A fun little latin song I did together with my wife Claudia. Acoustic guitar, percussion, keys, bass and vocals. A good exercise in timing for me. Cheers and enjoy. - Bill ( Bilbozo ) Smith

Description : A hybrid of cross-over of hip-hop, hard rock & pop. Featuring the vocals of Ciera Corr. This is kind of a fresh approach for me as I usually don't hit some of these genres, but couldn't resist the progression, beat and feel of this one which is seductive, dark and heavy which would go well with guitar. Some real fun chunky axe lines, grinding chords, dual guitar lines and a little shred for interest. Cheers and comments always welcome. Thanks - Bill ( Bilbozo )

Description : This is a collab with fellow friend, musician and keymaster SongDoc (David C. Deal), myself...with the acapella is from Chris Vena. We decided to give this one a dark heavy metal overtone (almost goth like) but still hold a club groove to keep it moving and interesting. It was an exercise in creating atmosphere. It basically shows how versatile David is, he virtually can play any genre with impecable success. Not really what people may expect from the two of us, but it definately was a lot of fun as all collabs are with Dr. Deal. Get ready to groove with the dead ! LOL Cheers and comments are always most welcome.

SongDoc (David C. Deal) - Keyboards

Bilbozo - Guitars, Bass, Precussion

Chris Venna - Vocal acapella

Description : Well I thought I would get festive and do a Christmas Track. When I was a kid, Charlie Brown , Snoopy and the Gang was always a favorite of mine. This is the track is the jazz song that aired on the special (with a few fun twists of course!). I just played guitar and a little bit of keys, the rest was a free backing track I came across. Comments always welcome. The best of the holiday season to you and yours. Bilbozo
