Excellent, parts remind me of some of Zappa’s compositions 👏👏👏

I seem to have liked this but not reposted or left a comment. I must have been interrupted. This is genius all of you!

A masterpiece gentlemen! Interest, beautiful tones, gorgeous harmonies and wonderful playing all the way through! Amazing!

Coming back to listen again to this fine piece by you gentlemen, outstanding performances, some fantastic keys and sax play

I'm late to this amazing track. Bravo to everyone's spectacular contribution and performance (Louis, Georg, and Alan)!

Wow, Amazing in every way! But in my ears there's one slightly above the others... Amazing guitar solo that it is! Superb song!

This song is dedicated to Joe Luby and all Vietnam veterans.  

Karl Paulsen - pedal steel guitar
Andrew Sharp - upright bass
Paul Stephanides - acoustic guitar and vocals

Beautiful melodies to end your day - close your eyes, relax and think about what is important to you and then go to sleep.

This is one of the first songs I wrote when I started writing again and for me at least, it is one of my favorites. It came quickly and felt like the words were already there waiting to come out. 

Originally published over a year ago, I was happy with everything except my clumsy attempts at piano.  So, I summed up the courage to ask Debbie to redo the piano parts which she was gracious enough to agree to. She has added emotion and nuance to the song which was missing and I am so thrilled with her interpretation. Thank you so much! Treat yourself and listen to more from @Debra_Buesking here

The song is dedicated to anyone who has ever had to say goodbye to a home, for whatever reason. And the sadness in seeing it change from a home to a building.

Rising From The Ashes Part III

Rising From The Ashes Part III (Feat. John Hamilton/Georg Boehme/Louis Taverna)

I never really cared for the finished product i posted last week, it never really sounded right. I loved the Roy Bittan style piano, and that took a long time to learn and record, but it didn't work so i scrapped it for the fender organ that i played on the fly. And I transposed it up a third, and reworked the words and completely remixed it.  I think it works a lot better now.. 

I don’t want to be the one you call up on the telephone
To see if I could come around ‘cause you don’t wanna be alone
Don’t get me wrong I want to spend some time with you
Don’t get me wrong but do you feel the same for me I feel for you
I don’t want to be the one that’s always looking in your eyes
Then you turn lights down low
And suddenly I’m paralyzed
It makes my heart start to stutter my knees they shake
and my words they flutter
I don’t want to be the one that ends up feeling like a fool, 
I don’t want to be the one when love has faded and we’re through
Love’s so overrated, it makes your life so complicated

I Don't Want To Be The One (Redux)

Look at this space
A void of no consequence
A measure of indifference
A hollow existence
Flood light into this space
Bright light
Fill this space with sound
Sweet sound

Lacuna

Now retired from a life 'on the road' as a freelance keyboard player, I compose and record in my home studio, situated in the Carrick Hills in Southern Scotland. My music is mainly instrumental in nature and is a reflection of my life experience, sometimes real and sometimes imagined.
My influences are many and I have quite probably been shaped by listening to the very many "giants" of music, both players and composers. From classical to contemporary jazz and everything in between. My main instrument is the keyboard, whether that be piano, organ or synth. But I also play banjo, flute and percussion. I have a special relationship'with bass, whether upright or electric and use virtual and synth basses from numerous sources, but mainly Trilian by Spectrasonics.
