Hi Folks!!!  This page is full of pics, sound and video clips. You should have no problem left clicking on the audio files to play them in your media player, but to view the (.mpg) files, you'll have to right click & "save target as" to download them. To view the (.avi) files, just click on the link. Be patient for them to open (10 to 60 seconds) in your Media Player. Of course, you can always right click and "save target as" the (.avi) files. Oh yea, "vidseg" is short for video segment.     Thanks!

"Taxman" is a Beatles song written by George Harrison performed in 1995 by yours truly, Mike Birkemeier. I did all the vocals, bass guitar, drum programming, and mixing/4 track recording as close to the original recording as possible...replacing the guitars, acoustic drums, and God-given gift to The Beatles with the utilities I had at the time. I hope you enjoy the end result. All original guitar parts were performed, recorded and mixed on bass guitar. Please enjoy!!
