Back in the 90s I did a stint in a band called "Erotic Liquid Culture", "ELC" for short. We were a four-piece...i.e...drummer, bassist, guitarist, and vocalist. We recorded our demo in a bedroom on a six track recorder, which, believe it or not, utilized a cassette tape as the master tape. Dave, our lead vocalist, sat in a beanbag chair when recording his vocals. That should give you an idea of how casual our recording sessions were. With only one live gig under our belts, which was in Dave's hometown somewhere in Arizona, we parted ways back in the early 90s. The whole distance thing was too brutal and just wasn't practical, since Dave was there and the rest of us were here in Florida. Below is a tune that showcased Dave's vocal prowess.
Tragically, Dave(on the left) was killed in an accident a few weeks ago on November 17. Over the years I managed to speak to him every now and then. Needless to say, he was a great vocalist, but more importantly, he was a super nice, down-to-earth guy, and gone way too soon.
RIP David Van Landing 1964 ~ 2015
