Basement Shakedown 2014: Stones covers

Hey Friends!  So, yeah, the slow RKBS Industries output lately has been on account of two unrelated factors:

First off, and most exciting, is that we've been continuing to work on a couple projects that may or may not eventually dovetail to a small extent: A set of new "Grey Gardens"-based songs with Our Man Dillo , and a mixed bag of older "Honcho"-style songs with Our Man Adam.  More on this later or hopefully sooner...

The second Gummer of the Works, now fairly long resolved, was last year's basement renovation at the Harpswell Estate.  All the gear was packed and stacked at the other end of the basement for a few months, and it took forever to get everything up and running again, but last fall or so found Roady up in the Midcoast and we were finally able to take things out for a test drive.  Things are sounding even better now, but the room sounded quite nice from the get-go. It was a last-minute thing and the session went down really fast, necessitating a lot of audible calls, relentless eye contact and such, but it was good fun to knock out a couple pairs of old classic rockers. 

The others'll go up next week or so, but I figured we'd start you off with some Stones, both off of my still-fave "Exile On Main St.": a good stab at "Torn and Frayed" and a pretty rough go at "Tumbling Dice".  Enjoy!
