Some of you will be familiar with this tune, and indeed it has been modified to include a bit of audio which was the basis of the theme. This bit of audio is the original recording of Stephen around 1982. I had looked for that recording for decades to be included just before the start off this song. Also, most recently I had redoubled my effort to find it to play for my beautiful wife as  she lay on her death bed. But, alas, I was only to find it the very day after her passing.

As you might imagine, the old cassette tape was full of hiss. So, my good friend and mentor, Sander (https://soundcloud.com/wane-of-summer), volunteered to help subtract that flaw and render Stephen's little voice to crystal clarity. Well, that is very much part of Sander's trademark. Thank you, Sander.

And below follows the original description of the song:


This is a song from a child which has no voice of his own. Having succumbed to the side effects of a childhood vaccination, he was never able to learn the spoken word...though through some miracle he seems to have developed perfect pitch. 

How would I know? Well, if I pick up various objects which can make a tone if they are blown into, though he may have heard it only once before, he will sometimes sing the note as it is being picked up. Blow into that object and, sure enough, he is in tune with it.

He was only about 3 years old when we were trying in vain to get him to speak into a tape recorder. Instead, he came up with this tune, which I decided to just add accompaniment. The original recording actually had his voice on it, but it has been lost over the years.

I´m proud of this song.. it brings a little light and hope into a world threatened by dark clouds.. thank you so much Hubert for your music and outstanding vocals!
 Only a demo..but this song was on the list for production by Freddy Koella (Bob Dylan Band, Willy de Ville, Carla Bruni a.o) .. we couldn´t  raise the money for the Studio including the rhythm -section of "Jackson Browne" so..we missed the deal.. shit happens!

This fiery electric blues number is our tribute to Chicago — the city where the blues plugged in, lit up, and never looked back.

LYRICS

Muddy Waters take me home
I am feelin’ all alone
Oh you know I’ve got the blues
But these days that isn’t news
Mannish Boy shake the night
Hoochie Coo bring us the light
Electric blues fill our soul
Help my mojo rock ‘n’ roll

Que the blues in Chicago
JuJu get your swagger on
Just be true in Chicago
Gotta get your mojo strong

Howlin’ Wolf bring the power
Fiery growl, man of the hour
Smokestack Lightning I’m on fire
Little Red Rooster makes me high
Buddy Guy he got the licks
Stone Cold Crazy full of tricks
Sweet Home Chicago sings for you
First Time I Met the Blues

Que the blues in Chicago
JuJu get your swagger on
Just be true in Chicago
Gotta get your mojo strong

Que the blues in Chicago
JuJu get your swagger on
Just be true in Chicago
Gotta get your mojo strong

Chicago Mojo

To celebrate 2000, I took a year off to write songs, novels, plays, and stories - and I've been doing that since. At the end of my first year, I won first prize in the USA Songwriting Contest in the Lyric Category for 'Drum Machines and Beauty Queens.' This led to co-writing songs with many excellent musicians, including those represented in songs posted here. 

More recently, I was one of seven finalists in the Crisis Lyric Category of the 2021 UK Songwriting Contest for 'Lockdown Blues,' and one of nine nominees in the 2021 International Song Awards with 'Didn't the River Know' and 'Blue and Gold.'

For the past two years, I've been collaborating with many talented musicians on Kompoz. I release many of these songs here and compile the best into albums released under Captain Stormfield's Trip on Spotify and other platforms (see links below).
