This song is about the artwork on my cellphone, created by our daughter Celeste for art school. (see below) It is of Frida Kahlo, the famous Painter from Mexico. When Barb & I visited Cabo San Lucas years later with our friend Ray, the artwork was noticed the first day, and we got free drinks. After that my phone was on each table of the places we visited, and we drank a lot for free.
It is presented here with Band in a Box, Reaper, Cakewalk, and Ozone 10. I added bass and vocals.

Frida Gough
There I was studying the menu when
my cellphone rang.
I muted it and placed it on the table down.
Then I smiled at the waitress and told her I was sorry.
She just stared at my phone.
She said, "Who's that on the back? Is that our Frida Kahlo?"
Frida Gough, that's the name I gave
her when she first was made.
Artistic strokes created by our daughter. Made to get a grade.
Then she gasped and ran into the kitchen screaming for the crew.
They all came out and walked up to our tableside.
They all smiled big hellos, admiring my cellphone,
and cheered, "You drink's on the house."
I didn't miss a beat and ordered some Famous Grouse.
Frida Gough, face-up on the table
down in Mexico
brings free drinks wherever they remember Frida Kahlo.
The Playa Grande and even Todo Santos filled our cups with wine.
A caipirinha, Dos Equis and a mudslide free.
We all danced our way through Cabo,
thanking Frida Kahlo, living life at its best.
They bring another round to toast our daughter Celeste.
Frida Gough, tequila and the
lemons down in Mexico
are free to go wherever they remember Frida Kahlo.
Frida. Frida. Frida, Frida. Frida. Frida Kahlo. ¡Salud!
