Jamming in our Jammies
Oct 15th, 2008 by benpatton
Dear Uncle Sam,
My new album “Berlin” will be available this December. Here is a little home-movie of myself playing the opening track “Over the Ocean Oh”, accompanied by my lovely assistant Pauline on two wet wine glasses, tuned to B and E respectively. We are in our jammies.

















Hey Ben,
Looks like you’ve finally learned my secret. Things always go better when you have a lovely assistant. Additionally, Here’s the Good News on “Berlin”: before sending it out for replication, I was able to replace all the instrumentation with tuned wine glasses. Happy Birthday or almost birthday, depending on when you read this.

So Ben,
Wasn’t it cool when you met Picasso and he did that portrait of you? I mean, I see it whenever I’m at the Art Institute in Chicago–I point and say, “hey, I *know* that guy!”
Love, Sarah
P.S. Beautiful song and beautiful girl!
That’s a great song. And the glasses sound awfully purty.
