Song based on advice passed on by my flatmate's grandad:
Lyrics:
When you're feeling unwell
Whole body under attack
when your throat feels like hell
head stuck by thundercrack
I got some good news for you,
A way to get up off your back
It's called the three hat method
never been known to fail
used for generations
by the weak and the frail
The instructions are simple like
using this hammer on this old nail
You'll need your favourite hat
could be a flatcap or trilby
you'll need a bottle of rum
the darker the better for me
now put your hat on the end of your bed
and drink that rum until your those hats count three
Oh yeah...

A different take on the progression.

Somewhat inspired in style by Satie's Gymnopedies.

This is a cover of Kenny Burrell's "Chitlins Con Carne", released 1963.
Special thanks to my brother, who showed that track to me in the first place.
He's also the guitarist/bassist here - together, we took turns on recording the percussion elements (guiro, cabasa, shaker, djembe, claps,...), and added some MIDI drumkits.
I'm to blame for the mix and the clarinet elements :D
