Nice synths. I love the way you created such a flowing piece.

Back for another journey and march !!  #Stellar

Really like what you did here. I agree with every note!

This has that brilliant blend of wild freedom and singular vision. As the world moves ever right-ward the Mark Twin quote  'history doesn't repeat itself but it often rhymes' has never felt more true.  Let's hope we learn the lessons before things get even worse... we must retain hope even when it feels so hard to hold. Best wishes - love the song 👍

Yeah! Awesome track!! Good talking to you today.

When you’re brainstorming ideas for album covers, you never really think they might involve placing yourselves in the middle of a road as traffic bears down on you.  However, that is precisely what we did.
Now I’m not one to tell tales but it was all Gal’s fault.  He thought our front cover  should feature an image of the entire band, which was quite compelling aside from the fact that we lived in London, Hans in Hamburg and have in reality never met.  But Gal had a mate called Dan (who lives in Norfolk, hence the title), a professional photographer whose comprehensive knowledge of Photoshop could bring the three of us together.
We’d always loved the pre-fame, Astrid Kirchherr portraits of The Beatles, taken during their club-playing, Hamburg days and two of these became our template - in focus subject occupying the foreground, covert and blurred figure (in our case, 2  figures) in the distance.
And so it was that, armed with a pin-sharp shot of Hans, we met with Dan to photograph the background scene which, as outlined previously, was in the middle of a busy side road.  Camera in hand, Dan teetered on a plastic crate as Gal and me  dodged back and forth to avoid a plethora of oncoming vehicles - everything from lorries to mobility scooters - who were, on the whole, very accommodating in the circumstances. Some even smiled and waved - at least I think that’s what they were doing…
We owe Dan so much, not only for his consummate skills and kindness but also for laying his life on the line in the name of art.  This song is for him.  (Terry Reeves)

I met a man called Dan holding a magical light
Viewing future moments, giving individual sight
Shadows from Hamburg, combination of skills
Show London reflection of a figure standing still

Chorus:
A flash of light, picture to follow
In black & white, diverse as tomorrow

Stand high in right places, enchanted vision of art
Friend of ageing musicians, sorcery skills from the heart
A Wizard conjuring cover, Kirchherr’s copy of claim
Painting light into a picture, producing Album in frame

Chorus

Viewing from height - sparks of vision
Seeing it tight - artist precision
Know left from right - avoid collision
Negative in sight - develop position

Chorus

Confidence in commitment, enjoying musical tracks
Working four to an image, platinum vinyl plaque 
Black and white cover photo, a clue why, when and who
Monochrome life connections, enjoy vision past to new

Chorus

A feeling it’s time to give a show
A feeling making history grow
A feeling, a feeling only one way to go
A feeling thinking fast going slow
A feeling Duchars photos will glow
A feeling CC one day will all know

FROM NORFOLK TO LONDON  - CRIPPLE CLUB  (Video)

The high life 

She steals the breath out of me
When all I want to do is sin 
I’m leaving the good to the rest 
I’ve been before and I will again 

 Cant do anything without her
Well nothing unless you stay in 
No electricity or power 
Live off the fat of the land 

To keep a life of influence and pride 
I’m in where do I stand ? 
Show me where I can find ? 

She appeals to the rebel in me 
When I wanna go against the grain 
My grip on reality 
Is starting to show the strain 

To live,  a life,  of influence and pride 
I’m in, where do I stand ? 
Show me where, I can find ? 

The high life 
It’s Now or never 
Alright 
Can we get it together 
So nice 
Won’t be forever 
I’m here for the pain 
So I’ll stay for whatever

The High Life

This is one about the election. The first line, I heard a lot on the news and talk shows right after the outcome, reassuring worried people that our country will make it through. I am not convinced we will, either way, it’s going to be a totally different America after these 4 years.

This song seemed a little over the top, so I went ahead and put in a gospel choir and a searing guitar lead just to make sure lol.

Sorry I haven't been on SC very much lately, I'm learning a new software app for my paying job and it is not making life easier, like I thought it would. I will be back soon!

And please pardon the vocals

I believe we’ll be okay
We’ll win this fight another day
Still, I would do it all again, because right is on our side,
And the truth can turn the tide
 
When kindness wins over greed
 It’s true that love is all you need
But If fear rules your life, your humanity will leave you
And then it’s hard to see the light
   
It seems to me // we’re all in this together
Money never will define a person's worth
And I realize, that nothing lasts forever
But we were meant to be good stewards of the Earth

I believe in you
And I hope that you believe in me, too
You  see, love has not died
It is lost somewhere inside
Our  spark will  bring it new life
So don’t give up, neither will I
Be who you        are and never hide 
If we raise our voices to the sky 
Love will not die!

We'll Be Okay

I'm not sure which is more maddening these days — the situation in Ukraine or the situation in America. Hell, the middle east is also crap. I'm just mad at it all.

I thought it would be nice to do a new recording of My Favorite Female that I did with the band Tibet in reverse in 2011. That version is a little further down if you scroll.
Here and now I have uploaded the new version. Instead of calling it a different version than the original, it has been given the British English spelling: My Favourite Female.

On the single, distributed to Apple Music, I also have an instrumental version of My Favourite Female.

My Favourite Female

My favourite female makes me feel like I´m a king
When I´m with her I can almost play guitar and sing
No need for computers, just put me in a world
I will perform with my girl for a viewer beyond worlds

Have you seen her favourite brain
It´s organic with an image of a world
being drawn in every single moment
Hello world, she is thinking of you

She really doesn´t have to work on Monday
but she´s working in a digital network
She´s a real nowhere girl living in a nowhere world
making nowhere plans for nobody

My favourite female makes me feel like I´m a king
When I´m with her I can almost play guitar and sing
No need for computers, just put me in a world
I will face reality with my favourite girl

Have you seen my favourite waste of time
Let her go, let her go
I took a trip to the edge of this world
and I was thinking of you

Honey, would I lie to you, this is not a place
for a nowhere girl to be
The good guys are hiding in the shadows
Oh baby, it´s a wild, wild, wild, wild world

My favourite female makes me feel like I´m a king
When I´m with her I can almost play guitar and sing
No need for computers, just put me in a world
I will face reality with my favourite girl

My favourite female makes me feel like I´m a king
When I´m with her I can almost play guitar and sing
No need for computers, just put me in a world
I will perform with my girl for a viewer beyond worlds

Thank you for sharing your time with me. If I can do one thing for you, keep that one thing to yourself, but manifest it through deep meditation. I will fuel myself using the psychic and spiritual essence you are sending to me, kind of like Cerebro.

Even though I scream inside because of America's shit show, I'm still Rebecca, an old hippie rocker. When you read my comments, hear them in a southern drawl. I’m a liberal from Georgia … yes, we do exist. I moved to Hawaii about 20 years ago. 

I’ve been around the block a few times. Played a lot of guitar and a bit of other instruments. Mostly I've worked as a visual artist. I've spent some years in the music biz with a major label and my own indie label. I’ve done some other interesting things, too, including: horse training, long motorcycle trips, movie set design, accompanying my wife on her pro bowling tours, and I've seen a good bit of the world. Now I’m retired and still keep busy doing all the things I want to do.

Life is what you make it. Follow your passions.

Speaking of passions … because I love designing, in February '24, I opened an Etsy store as an outlet for prints on clothing and other items: https://dragonhousestudios.etsy.com
