Download the entire first John Schooley and his One Man Band album for free!

Since the first record is now out of print and copies are going for thousands on Ebay, here's a link where you can download it from Rapidshare. You need Winrar for extracting the files - get it free here. Once you download the record let me guilt-trip you into giving me some dough via Paypal so I can afford to make more records in the future.

You can also order the newest LP and hear it the way it was meant to be heard - analog and cranked up! Not on tiny little earbuds while you wait for public transportation. With the LP you also get the excellent artwork of Rob Jones, and the pride of ownership that you don't get with a bunch of 1's and 0's.

I get emails all the time from people who don't have record stores near them that carry Voodoo Rhythm stuff. If you are in the states you can get it from Waterloo Records. If you are outside the U.S., have a look at Beat Man's list of international distributors. In Europe you can order straight from Beat Man or from a number of different stores. Most of the rest of the world has access to Voodoo Rhythm somehow. Check it out!

Below are some sample mp3's from the newest album, One Man Against the World. If you like these, you could actually pay for 'em. That'd be nice.

Every Day Can Get You Down (mp3) My Baby Cried All Night Long(mp3)
Down South Blues (mp3) Cantrell Creek Breakdown (mp3)

Check out the video for "Drive You Faster"

 

Here's me in Melbourne a few years ago from my Australian tour doing Dr. Ross's "Cat Squirrel", from my first LP:

From my 2008 European tour, here's me in Madrid, doing the instrumental "Cantrell Creek Breakdown" from my 2nd LP. You also get to see the cave deep beneath the city that I played in! It's loud!:

Again from the Madrid show, doing Tarheel Slim's "Wildcat Tamer". My voice is a bit shot from being on the road for a couple weeks, but still not bad...

Here's a new video of me performing live at the Turf Club in Mineapolis, doing Junior Well's "Two Headed Woman" and my own "Every Day Can Get You Down" from the most recent LP. Thanks to the guys from The Speakin Tounges for posting this!

 

Here's me doing "Two Headed Woman" from my EP on Hook or Crook at the Deep Blues Festival. It was raining and cold, and my first song. Guitar wasn't loud enough and the one man band apparatus wasn't properly arranged. Oh well, you get the idea...thanks to Johnny Lowbow for letting me use the kick drum...

 

Here's me looking about 12 years old (actually, I was in my mid-20's), playing with R.L. Burnside in Bergen, Norway. No shit! At the Bergen Blues Festival circa 1998. One of the thrills of my life. Thanks to Chris Johnson of the Deep Blues Festival for posting these!
