Episode 689 - "Colored Aristocracy"

 


The Stark Sessions are bare-bones song studies shot in high contrast black and white with no dialogue, allowing viewers to focus on the tune at hand. For this session, the song, “Colored Aristocracy”, is broken down into melody, drone melody and then chords are added along with a backing track.
