Album Notes

"I am knocked aback by the ingenuity and finesse. The guitar playing and vocals were brilliant, and quite unique."
"Clever guitar play and the vocals are superb. I love the general feel."
- Garageband.com


(If you're an MP3 weirdo, go buy "The Frivol" on Itunes!)

Doc Dabolu is kept in a blue jar that contains a sound as disorienting as diving into a basket of puppies.

"The Frivol" was recorded at places ranging from a radio production booth in the middle of cornfields, to the basements of houses where Doc was residing, to his bedroom in his apartment in Chicago. Some of the tracks contain instruments which were recorded in analog and other instruments within the same song recorded digitally just to expand the sound spectrum into unexplored areas.

Using acoustic & electric guitars, a bass, congas, a jaw harp, drums or anything that may at some time resemble a drum, sometimes vocals and any other device that can make noise when hit/strummed/thrown against the wall, Doc Dabolu has made an album that is guaranteed to make your limbs jump around the room in revolt, and quite possibly even melt your brain if you're not careful.

Mookie hits the tunes hard with prolific serendipity. From the beauteaous gulch from the mountainous crescendoss. This album takes me to the times of lore. A index finger up for this dazzling piece of erogenous music.
