Lovely piano playing, beautiful meditative feel

The Blob that ate East Texas came from south South Houston. A chemical processing plant disaster victim? An outer space monster mutant? Or Her Majesty's baby daddy out and about in his underpants again? No one knows for sure. 

In this chapter, the Texas National Guard, armed with the latest in laser beam weaponry provided by Texas Instruments, pursue the mad green shape-shifting semi-gelatinous monster toward Buffalo Bayou.

Texas Instruments, for all your lethal and nonlethal laser beam and laser blaster needs.

Autumn Nature

What began as a prosaic comment evolved into an enriching collaboration.  Our friend and Soundcloud poet laurate Peter joins us on a fishing voyage.  Seagull, not content to do a simple voice over, remixes the track and places us on a fishing boat, the sea a bit rough, the gulls impatient for part of the catch, and Peter not just reading but dynamically narrating what he is experiencing on the deck of the ship.  What an honor to work with these artists enlarging on our previous collaboration.  Please check out more of Seagull's music @farout-music-studio, and Peter's poignant songs and poetry @user-264930040

My sanctuary from archive gleans
The gentle times, wherein my mind
Recalls a childhood spent in dreams
Of bobbing boats on ocean spied.

Here, the call of a benevolent sea
The briny, perfumed honesty
Of adolescent memories.

But whence this salty desert sea
Where once the skinny trawler plied?
Plastic water ocean streams
Where finny, swimmy fish should lie.

Silenced of the chuggy motors
Decimated by their quotas
Where the haddock, cod and herring bloaters?

The factory ships that hoovered clean
Of scaly friends the sea main wide.
Its cheaply speckled high protein
Squandered as the herring gull cried.

Where the fishers, where the boats?
Where the nets, and yellow rubber coats?
Where the pots, and lines and corky floats?

...wherein my mind
Recalls a childhood spent in dreams
Of bobbing boats on ocean spied.
Why, they set sail for the past it seems,
Upon tomorrow's ebbing tide.

Lyrics

Get on the bus get on the bus, Get on the bus wlth us
c'mon c'mon get on the bus
There's Gus, who drives the bus and he does Everything for us
He's got the peddle down--

and all the band and larry mary sid and johnny too and that's to jjust to name a few
and all of you who have the eyes and ears to hear and see-
all of us are on that bus Telepathically
so you had better be ln the vicinity of the bus
whose designated destination ls infinity and all points ln between

Believe you me, there ls no comfort or relief ln Clarity
Truer words were never spoken and even though we're all broken
here's a little token of the love l'm feeling for the instant beauty of the moment

Everyone ls psychedelic from those purple Mlcrodots
Fuel ls burning under stars so bright
on the bus, 10 feet off the ground
blacktop slippin under us at half the speed of light

Now lt comes flowln down, lt washes over me
something l can hear, but l can't exactly see-
Cans are Blarin, l'm just starin
hearin things we can't believe
music soothin, lt's not Taxing so relaxing
making music with some friends of mine
making noises so Delightful-
on the bus, where betrayal ls the only thing
that's not allowed

Come along, you're all lnvlted to rlde the bus wlth us
get on the bus get on the bus
c'mon get on the bus
don't make a Fuss
Just get on the bus

Miles ~ Jaime J Ross

She said:  sometimes emotions bring smiles...sometimes emotions bring tears...sometimes emotions bring melodies...

i have to thank Gary for taking such good care of these piano melodies...for creating the background music/cushion that really puts the piano front and center and retains all of the emotion that i felt when i played it...and, perhaps, most importantly...i want to thank him for being the inspiration behind this piece of music...

He Said: Im just blown away when I listen to Jaime play her piano and I love this piece of music and it was a big honor to be able to arrange it.  When I listen I am taken to other places and to be inspiring in some way for another and vice a verse is a really amazing gift. Thank you Jaime !!
