This is really freaking cool dude! Really digging the percussion. :) :) :)

I remember Boomwhackers back in elementary school. I need some of my own.

Haha These boomwhackers are amazing. Beautifully put together piece.

Made with Boomwhackers, Caxixi, Udu, Lid & Vocals

Boomwhackers are chromatically tuned plastic tubes. The sound depends on the surface you whack against. Normally they are used for educational purposes but to me they are a great and intense sound source. Simple but really effective.

Please enjoy and thanks for listening!

Do you wanna be a part?
Do you wanna play along?
One of these things is not like the others
One of these don’t belong

Whispers in the dark
Something going on
All of these things are just like the others
Saying you don’t belong

It’s a sarcastic war
Like your fraudulent thesis
One I tried to ignore
While it cut me to pieces

One of these in the shade
One of these in the sun
One of these gets the good fertilizer
One of these gets the gun

Why are you so annoyed?
Why are you so upset?
Spinnin around the brass gas lighter
Like a slapstick lunatic

It’s a sarcastic war
Like your fraudulent thesis
One I tried to ignore
While it cut me to pieces

It's a shock to the core
Like that time you slapped Jesus
Cause you had to be sure
That he’d jump you at recess

Sarcastic War

Lord Kitchener, the calypso king, arrived at Tilbury docks 21 June 1948, on the Windrush. https://youtu.be/Zlv4dkS-s8w

Despite living and working in the UK for decades, many of the Windrush generation's children were told they were there illegally because of a lack of official paperwork. The scandal, which broke in April 2018, saw the UK government belatedly apologise for deportation threats made.

Footnote: I purchased my first guitar, an Epiphone studio dot and a small fender amp and I decided to add to this track having looked up the three chords, blushin' at my audacity!

Original Song 
Lyrics
There's a faded picture hanging on my wall just like it did in my parent’s house before
As a child, the faces called from it so fearlessly their colors vibrant and true
Oh but time takes its toll even colors grow old
But their fearlessness still comes shining through

Faded Glory, Faded Glory, Faded Glory filled with Grace 
Faded Glory, leaves behind what time cannot erase
Fade Glory,  Faded Glory, Faded Glory worn with Grace

Don’t surrender to the doubts that come in the night and say you have no more gifts to give
What you have is far more beautiful than you know even though touched by years
Cos dreams dulled by light can still be called on to shine
to yield the promise of why we’re here

Faded Glory, Faded Glory, Faded Glory filled with Grace 
Faded Glory, leaves behind what time cannot erase
Fade Glory,  Faded Glory, Faded Glory worn with Grace

Let’s light as many fires as we can 
So we can warm as many hands as we are able

Faded Glory, Faded Glory, Faded Glory filled with Grace 
Faded Glory, leaves behind what time cannot erase
Fade Glory,  Faded Glory, Faded Glory worn with Grace

Faded Glory

I don’t believe in luck but I do feel very privileged to have two angels looking after me. My wife Jo and my daughter Charlotte have saved my life on three occasions keeping me alive until the ambulance arrived. I have been told that without their interventions I would not have survived.

Both have chosen not to believe in any God or indeed any outside power that can change our lives.  There may be many of you who disagree but these are the choices we make - each of us believes what we feel is best for us.  If a belief in a higher being helps give anyone’s life more meaning and guides them through each day, we have no argument with that at all.   

I think of Jo and Charlotte as my Atheist Angels.  The care they have given me during these close-to-death experiences shows what beautiful souls they are, always there for me at the time of greatest need.   

On every occasion, there were times when I truly thought that I was drawing my last breath, my existence disappearing as they fought to save me and all I could think of at the time was that, barring my brother Gal, all of my closest male antecedents died when they were just 63.  I was the same age during these episodes and I really didn’t want my name added to the sequence.  My Atheist Angels made sure that it wasn't.

Now I am 67, a proud grandfather, still around to enjoy the experience of watching my family thrive and grow.  There is another grandchild on the way later on this year and the more time I can spend with the love of my life Jo, the better and although my illness is not exactly how I planned things, I still try to enjoy every extra moment.

The continuation of ‘Cripple Club’ with Gal and Hans has been another unexpected bonus and we plan to keep going as long as we can. Here’s to the next song - I do hope you enjoy this one.   (Terry Reeves)

The whisper of a distance voice
Two angels arriving single choice
Keep breathing slow not too much
Your not leaving just stay in touch 

I’m floating yes I’m floating yes I’m floating floating away

A feeling of desperate final breath
Lonely moment no time to caress 
Fighting every 63rd dying thought
Surviving each gulp of air caught 

I’m floating yes I’m floating yes I’m floating floating away

Has time arrived to lay down still
Not accepted by two who really feel
More than one chance to live again
The Angels alongside helping pain

I’m floating yes I’m floating yes l’m floating floating away

Fight to avoid final thought of death
A fading light continues to suggest
Only time decides what, when and how
My Atheist Angels this time will not allow

I’m floating, yes I’m floating, yes I’m floating, I’m floating
I’m floating, yes I’m floating, yes I’m floating, I’m floating 
I’m floating, yes I’m floating, yes I’m floating,
Floating to stay……………………..cont

Lyrics : 
Passons nous le ciel et l'essentiel
Pour un deal d'elle et il au pluriel
Mélangeons nos gènes à bout de draps
Effaçons les frontières de nos doigts

Apporte ton style
Qu'importe ta ville 
Enfants de Gaïa
Nés sous le même toit
Apporte ton style
Qu'importe ta ville
Frères et sœurs de ça
On a le même toit

Au volant de nos ailes soulevons
Des montagnes d'erreurs et de questions
Dérivons nos continents en s'aimant
D'amours différentes intenses aimants

Apporte ton style
Qu'importe ta ville 
Enfants de Gaïa
Nés sous le même toit
Apporte ton style
Qu'importe ta ville
Frères et sœurs de ça
On a le même toit

Il t'en faut trop pour être bien et bien trop peu pour être soûlé
J'ai le smile la tête sous l'eau, tu fais la gueule sous l'soleil 
Après quoi cours tu ? Pourquoi appeler les coup durs ?
Stop, arrête toi deux minutes, ne vois tu pas tes menottes ?
Contemple ce qui t'entoure, et rends la pareille, 
Connecte toi à autre chose que ton foutu appareil 
On est tous les mêmes pourtant chacun sort du lot
C'est chaque petite goutte qui fait grandir le cours de l'eau
Main dans la main c'est mieux que d'en venir aux poings
Nous sommes tous dans le même camp, ok, marquons un point 
Personne ne gagne dans une guerre
La paix est bien plus forte que nous, 
Et était là avant tout
Elle restera après notre ère

Les trésors de la vie sont sous nos yeux 
Tout dépend ta vision des choses
Les erreurs qu’on commet sont des portes vers un avenir sans faute 
Aie confiance en l’univers 
Aime la vie et ceux qui t’entourent
Et si jamais tu te perds 
Suis l’instinct et apprécie la route 
Depuis que j’ai compris ça je vis comme un roi ou comme un chat 
j’apprécie chaque moment
Tout seul ou auprès des miens 
sous le froid la pluie, sous l'soleil des tropiques
La tristesse le malheur la joie, la paix sont des grâces de l’univers car au fond je suis toujours habité par ce feu sacré 
Qui embrase mon âme 
L’amour dans nos cœurs à jamais 
Laisse jaillir ta flamme 
tu brilleras pour l’éternité

Glissons sur nos vagues à l'âme à l'unisson
Un seul monde une même moisson
Marchons sur nos traces d'avants d'ailleurs
Sur les sables émouvants de nos peurs

Apporte ton style
Qu'importe ta ville 
Enfants de Gaïa
Nés sous le même toit
Apporte ton style
Qu'importe ta ville
Frères et sœurs de ça
On a le même toit

Le Même Toit ( Triumvirat & Jim ) Feat CKenza

IL TE MANQUE LA MER
OUI MAIS TU AS L’AMOUR
IL TE MANQUE TA TERRE
OUI MAIS REGARDE AUTOUR
TU AS L’HOMME QUI T’AIME ET LA MÉLANCOLIE
SE DISSOUT D’ELLE MÊME SI ON LA VOIT JOLIE
MOI AUSSI MON PAYS
ME MANQUE BIEN SOUVENT MAIS L’AMOUR MOI AUSSI EN EMPORTE LE VENT AUTANT
TU VOUDRAIS REPARTIR MAIS TU AIMES RESTER LE PRÉSENT L’AVENIR EMMÊLÉS AU PASSÉ
UNE LARME UN SOURIRE UNE VAGUE UN REGRET ET LE MOT POUR LES DIRE JE SAIS QUE TU LE SAIS MOI AUSSI NEGUINHA PARTAGÉ ENTRE ICI MAINTENANT ET LÀ-BAS HIER ET AUJOURD’HUI SAUDADE
IL TE MANQUE RIO
LE SOLEIL EN HIVER MAIS TU AS PETERZINHO
A BRAS ET CŒUR OUVERTS TU VOUDRAIS REPARTIR MAIS TU AIMES RESTER
LE PRÉSENT L’AVENIR EMMÊLÉS AU PASSÉ
IL TE MANQUE LA MER
OUI MAIS TU AS L’AMOUR
IL TE MANQUE TA TERRE
OUI MAIS REGARDE AUTOUR
