The tune and many of its lyrics and riffs was another shower-song. 'Get Your Jam On' already was JAMBAR's
trademarked slogan. I wanted to create with Rivers Answer Moons a track useful to JAMBAR... A jingle, maybe... So, one day--January 26, 2022 to be "pree-cise"--while I was in the shower after bicycling the slogan became a melodic and rhythmic hook. Onto that hook jumped more lyrics and consequent riffs.  The whole frame evolved into my notebook in about 15 minutes, as with "Live Out Loud" for Melissa Gregory Rue's documentary in 2018 and with many other songs before and since.

Jennifer and JAMBAR were a particualr inspiration. I wanted to express how truly "darn good" the Bars are; how helpful they are to athletes' and everyday people's health and performance; and how JAMBAR's 'Purpose' with 19 Partners in Music (mostly Music-Education) and Active Living really is to make folks OPTIMAL as people and creators.

And so ... Let's get to the music--all of it immeasurably enhanced by Michael, Herlin, Kirk and Roger from my simple frame. This September I've gone through " ... JAM ..." second-by-second in a process that I call Fine Tooth Comber, or FTC. What's this Fine Tooth Comber do eggsackly? Groom with a hard-wire brush, is he? Rider on a wave? Wh'all, No. FTC begins with opening a Track in the Audacity freeware. The process then listens. Listens and listens. Then begins to adjust volumes in the Stereo or Mono channels ... so that what's happening among players and between players and vocalists can be more heard ... because musicians such as those here (Rivers Answer Moons) are consistently HAPPENING ...  responding to content and nuance ... and so is an artist such as Erica consistently responding with her instrument.

I hope that you love what comes out!

You can hear all of " ... JAM ..." and nine of its Part over on Bandcamp.  Streaming there plays the Tracks at 128 megabytes per second (mbps). Downloading them gives your ears and brain over 10-fold MORE in information and--for Maryse and me--worlds more of musicality. Or--THUMBS UP!--"JAM On!"--you can simply listen to Parts here and presumably through my 'Stands the Human Being' on Substack.
