As a young man I met a wise man. I liked him right away. He was old but had great verve. I offered to exchange phone numbers which enraged him. He informed me that.. "Telephones and telegrams would lead to the demise of communication. How could one possibly ever trust any soul whose eyes and body language could not be read?". That sweet old bastard would have blown his brains out if he ever could have forseen email.

Oliver Madly is Jeff Clark's alter ego. Just a name less generic for my own creative endeavours. I spent many entertaining years as the house recording engineer for Pasha Records at Pasha Music House in Hollywood and have continued to do freelance recording since they closed. You can see a partial list of Jeff Clark a.k.a. OM's Album Credits
And If... The song that might be playing now, is the result of my friend Dusty Arth coming by my studio and laying down the rough (one take) guitar track which immediately inspired me to write and record the lyrics. It's very rough. All in all it took less than 3 hours to write and record. I'm not sure how long Dusty spent on the guitar track's creation but I'm glad that he did.
UPDATE!
Wild Animal LIVE in '88 has been posted here. Maybe because I'll be 50 years old in a couple of days and I thought someone might be interested in what I was doing at around 31. Me and a couple of my old friends from Ruthless daze got asked to jam at the last minute for a huge party at Mike Bailey's Computer Church (which was just a name given to a huge warehouse that he had access to). We got ahold of this drummer who said he would show up but never did. Frank Mone (who plays an awesome bass) came up with a riff on the way over in the '66 Chevy Van and Rollin "Troll" Lagman (guitar player extrodinaire) and him played around and jammed with it as we rolled. I had a lot of testosterone at the time due to a lady I had met recently and so it was easy to make up the lyrics on the way over. We hadn't had any rehearsal and now no drummer. When we got there, we met this drummer named Skin in the parking lot who said he knew a lot of Preist, Sabbath and stuff so we got him to jam. Well, were up there jammin covers and I guess Frank shows the guy the riff between songs and all of the sudden we're jamming it. It's wasn't exactly tight or rehearsed but it somehow got recorded to a cassette tape and that's what you're hearing. Them was some crazy ath daze.
Lately just been playing around with some musician friends and building my home studio up. Will hopefully have more songs to share soon.
I also do custom graphics, logos, web design, psychadelic artwork, photography, recording engineering and production. More on that at www.olivermadly.com

Here it is... The Holy Grail.... Click image below for enlightenment "Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are or where we are going in
this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities—the political, the religious, the educational authorities—who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, informing—forming in our minds—THEIR view of reality. To think for yourself, you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable open-mindedness, chaotic, confused vulnerability to inform yourself." - Timothy Leary HOW TO OPERATE YOUR BRAIN
