This is the 6th song posted from the album I started using demo tracks given to me by Wou-Wou & the Wormling during the start of the pandemic! This song was inspired by the mass shootings that plague the United States and the lack of progress this society and government makes toward increasing the safety and well being of all. I was recently surprised by an article in support of the “good guy with a gun” solution in a mainstream liberal news article. It’s basically the wild wild west out here still, lol. 

Big thanks to Wou Wou, Bit-zone, and Stricknice for sticking with me through this long project and being an awesome group to work with. And big thanks to The Magnetic Dog Sisters for working with me on this second track. I love their fresh experimental sound!

Lyrics:

It’s true, dreams get shattered on a daily basis
You can see the disappointment on the multitudes faces
And on this occasion, even though I was sent to the ground I try to be gracious
As I watch the hind from behind, I plot how I’m still going to taste this 
Facts, I ain’t going to lie
Each time I try to sneak by the stag into his harem, I feel like I am less of a guy
I don’t know why I am always living in comparison
Stuck in this seasonal competition 
At the same time living in fear of becoming venison 
The life of an unfettered stag should be one of rugged individualism 
Yet here I am, alone and disappointed by my under actualized freedom, it’s embarrassing 
I walk alone once again and hear the birds singing
Try to let go of these dark thoughts that I’ve been thinking
It’s just me and this cool stream from which I’m drinking
The last thing I noticed was my ear ringing

I should have been running 
I should have had fear
Its clear that deaths near so you always 
Better beware 
I would have stared down that bullet 
If I knew it was my time
Look my maker in the eye 
As I’m about to die
Just as I was hitting my prime
With a fully aligned spine 
And a F.U. on my mind 
I would spit my cud on the ground 
And I would bellow out a sound
For the millions of lost deer to the round
Bullets of men, the scourge of the earth

Lyrics
We've only just begun to live
White lace and promises
A kiss for luck and we're on our way
(We've only begun)
Before the risin' sun, we fly
So many roads to choose
We'll start out walkin' and learn to run
(And yes, we've just begun)
Sharing horizons that are new to us
Watchin the signs along the way
Talkin' it over, just the two of us
Workin' together day to day
Together
And when the evening comes, we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow
(And yes, we've just begun)
Sharing horizons that are new to us
Watchin' the signs along the way
Talkin' it over, just the two of us
Workin' together day to day
Together
Together
And when the evening comes, we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow
And yes, we've just begun

She's Only Lookin'

SHE BLOWS HER OWN WIND
SHE CARVES HER OWN FATE
SHE’S A SELF-MADE CRAFTSWOMAN OF HER LIFE

SHE FLIES HER OWN WINGS
AND FEEDS HER OWN PLATE
SOMETIMES HER WORDS CUT LIKE A KNIFE 

SHE HAS BEEN AROUND
AND YET REMAINS BOUND
ANYWHERE NEW CAN BE FOUND

NEW YORK NEW YORK
KRISTINA WHY NOT
THE WORLD IS YOUR OYSTER YOU ROCK

A JUMP ON THE SIDE
A WALK IN THE WILD
WHO KNOWS WHAT WILL BE YOUR NEXT RIDE
IT’S ALL WIDE OPEN

SHE FLOWS WITH THE WIND
AND SWIMS IN THE COLD
SHE KNOWS HOW TO TAKE BY THE HAND

AND ALL THAT SHE GIVES
IS ALL THAT SHE’S GOT
A HEART OF GOLD AND OPEN ARMS
IT’S ALL WIDE OPEN

HER BODY’S GOT SOUL A YOGI I’M TOLD
THIS WAY SHE MIGHT NEVER GROW OLD

IT TAKES QUITE A STAR TO BE WHAT TOU ARE
FROM NICE TO LOU REED AT THE BAR
IT’S ALL WIDE OPEN
I MEAN WIDE WIDE OPEN


HERE SHE COMES THERE SHE GOES
WHAT WILL BE THE NEXT MOVE NOBODY KNOWS

WIDE OPEN - short version (Lyrics) song for Kristina

LYRICS
Some say left
Some say right 
Some say straight ahead
Some say black
Some say white 
Some say paint it red

Some say that’s a yes 
Some say that’s a no
And some say…….. maybe 
Mmm … just maybe
Who can ever know 

Some say up
Some say down
Some say stay right here
Some say it soft
Some say it loud
Some just say it clear

Some say that’s a yes 
Some say that’s a no
And some say…….. maybe 
Mmm … just maybe
Who can ever know

Who Can Ever Know

Hiya Listeners, 😊

Tim and I are back again with another of our Musical Conversations. I used my digital keyboard on this one so he could soar on his Telecaster! 😃

It takes a minute or so for us to feel our way into this one, but Tim really does soar on this track. 😉 

But really, it's such a Pleasure to Jam Live with someone who actually Knows How to Listen...  
I'm so Thankful that Tim keeps showing up and letting his guitar Sing!   

 May you enJOY. 😊

LINER NOTES for the CD/Playlist of the same name are below.

"We wish every musician here on SoundCloud a Wondrous and Creative 2024!

❤️Love, 🕊️Peace, 🙏Respect

Here are the Liner Notes for this  Playlist/CD.

In the depths of musical exploration, where genre boundaries dissolve and creativity reigns supreme, emerges Shekinah Fire – a dynamic collaboration between improvisational pianist Gary Courtland-Miles and guitarist Tim Elliot. With their debut album, "Beyond Belief," they invite listeners on an exhilarating journey through a fusion of classical, jazz, and orchestral improvisational music.

Over the course of the past year, Courtland-Miles and Elliot have forged a partnership grounded in mutual trust, an unspoken agreement in spirit, and a fearless willingness to 'fall off musical cliffs together.' The result? Over 40 unique and passionately crafted compositions that defy categorization and transcend conventional reference points.

At the heart of Shekinah Fire's music lies a palpable sense of wonder, freshness, and authenticity. Each track unfolds with an undeniable sense of spontaneity, guided by the duo's intuitive connection and shared musical vision. Whether navigating intricate melodies or delving into soul-stirring improvisations, Courtland-Miles and Elliot infuse every note with heart and soul.

Recorded at "The Living Room" in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, "Beyond Belief" captures the raw energy and excitement of Shekinah Fire's live performances. Using only one stereo microphone, the album preserves the intimate atmosphere of the room, inviting listeners to immerse themselves fully in the magic of the moment.

Through a blend of electric and acoustic pianos and guitars, Courtland-Miles and Elliot weave a sonic tapestry that is as captivating as it is transcendent. Each composition is a testament to the duo's boundless creativity and unwavering commitment to artistic exploration.

So, dear listener, heed the call to adventure. Let go of preconceived notions and surrender to the spellbinding allure of Shekinah Fire's "Beyond Belief." For in the realm of music that is 'beyond belief,' there are no limits – only endless possibilities waiting to be discovered. "

Paroles / Lyrics :

La fillette, dans le désert,
recherche une dune imaginaire,
plus haute que la tour de Eiffel,
plus haute que la tour de Babel.

Et jamais elle ne s'arrête,
toujours en quête
d'une dune imaginaire
en plein désert...

" - Dis-moi, fillette, pourquoi cherches-tu ici bas,
quelque chose qui n'existe pas ?
- Je recherche le plus haut monticule
pour atteindre la lune."

Jamais elle ne s'arrête,
toujours en quête
d'une dune imaginaire
en plein désert...
Et jamais elle ne s'arrête,
toujours en quête
d'une dune imaginaire
en plein désert...

Mais ses jambes ne peuvent plus la porter ;
sur le sable elle vient s'allonger.
Que s'endorme Claire sur une petite dune,
un jour prochain elle décrochera la lune.

Petite Claire sous la lune

Une dune imaginaire

Une dune imaginaire [Ootol & Lukowig]

Pas glop, 
J' t' aimais bien mon petit humain 
Pas glop,
 On dirait bien que c' est la fin 
Papillons éphémères dans un ciel d'été lointain

On the 2nd of November 2019 my mother passed away. This song is for her!
Rest In Peace My Dear Mother!

Against Time

I played a bass part for our cover of Tom Waits' "Bad As Me" but it didn't seem to quite fit. 
Then Mo sent me a present to cheer me up with what I had done.
