What's new at mp3.com/dvcox?

All new stuff is loaded at the top of the playlist. Blue Vamp. A hard rocking gritty kind of blues tune. Effervescence. A bubbly hard edge pop tune just waiting for lyrics. Written after seeing Elvis Costello and the Imposters in Atlanta. Shanghai Sunset. Pure mood. Turn it up. The bass is so low it purs. Slide fun. Cowboy Blues in Gm. More slide fun, easy going country. Two.  Two guitars, atmospheric improvisation. Reverb city. Blues in Gm. OK....here's a normal song. Has the classic Strat sound to it. 2 points if you can find where my fingers moved the pickup selector by mistake. Acoustic Reverie. Sounds Mexicali-esque. Two acoustic guitars and bass. I've got several more in the production queue and they should be arriving soon.

STATIONS: I've  also created some mp3.com stations both as a way of both shamelessly promoting my stuff but especially showcasing the truly outstanding talent here at MP3.com. They are under the name BigEclecticCat. Apologies to Adrian Belew -- mr. big electric cat himself, who is represented as well.  Click below on link to be magically transported through space and time to proper station.

• CoolCat This is late night stuff to be enjoyed at any time.

• CultureCat Interesting examples of multicultural "World" music on MP3.com. 2 paws up!

• ClassicCat Here you'll find a diversity of compositional styles including (but not limited to) Classical, Experimental and Contemporary.
