Great job Adam! I'm honored that you chose to cover one of my songs

Nice mellow groove and acoustic picking👍

Beautiful in Motion (Cover - by Mike Molino)

I had these two little blues pieces – in E and C – and an arrangement for When I’m 64, and they seemed to fit, and voila! The whole piece runs for 100 bars, but subtracting the repeated two blues sections the piece adds up to 64 bars. I swear this was an accident!

Credits: When I’m Sixty Four by John Lennon & Paul McCartney, 1967. (McCartney wrote the song.)


Sixty-four Bar Blues

An Irish slow air recorded once through on my phone in a practice session. A historical, political story from 1798. I’m playing on my Dad’s fiddle. The photo and river are from my walk home from work - I was feeling elemental today.

Sliabh na mBan (The Mountain of the Women)

Water for my soul

In time for Halloween, or the End of the World.
Dark, brooding, pondering of the state of things, real and imagined, current, past, or future (political subterfuge through music?)

Lyrics:

Come one day, in a rainy conversation
Come one day, the tether line will snap
Come one moment one cover story blown
Come one truth, one smoking gun exposed

Come one day (x8)

Come one day, one coffee never sipped
Come one day, you're mentally unfit
Come one moment, the lie becomes what's true
Come one truth, there's no good guy to your rescue

Come one day (x2)

Instrumental

Chill Lo-Fi Interlude)

Come one day, there's a slip upon the rocks
Come one day, there's blood poolin' in the docks
Come one moment, a witness hesitates
Come one truth, arrives a moment late...


Come one day, the TV crackled noise
Come one day, politicians lost their voice(s)
Come one moment, we'll all run out of straws
Come one Truth, the Angel brought a chainsaw

The angel has a chainsaw (x2)


Come one day… (x4)

Angel Has A Chainsaw

this came from the first drum take recorded in my new downsized studio. kids needed larger rooms and my partner, Monika Jean, moved in, so sacrifices had to be made. most of the drums are gone. what you hear on this track are odds and ends i could squeeze into a corner. floor tom as a kick, broken hi hat that wont open, etc etc. surprisingly i tend to enjoy frankenstein drum sets more than full ones. the whole "making something out of nothing" spirit tends to inspire me most. 

the soul is one

Hope you enjoy.  See the entire Texas Tea playlist here - https://soundcloud.com/texmex-shaman/sets/texas-tea-sea

Black Coffee - A Texas Tea Production with Tea R Sea

I did this about a year ago -- posting again because I reworked it a bit, and I just really like the tune. The 2nd & 3rd verses were inspired by a fellow SoundCloud member's life events. 

Is it There

one two three four five six seven
all good children go to heaven

is it there
is it right there by your side

while you were sleeping
a summer rain fell through the night
(hear the sound of the falling rain there in the night)
and the taste of bitter dreams became sweeter
with the gentle sound in your mind
(knowing that soon the sun will rise leaving the night behind)

is it there to remind
that everything will be alright

I put down the page knowing there was no turning back
I watched her breathing in the sacred arc of life
I wandered alone in a hallway lit by an exit light

so much time when you were young
didn't feel the pendulum
now the saturnine faces of the ones we love
you wonder why

if I could have anything that I could keep safe and never undone
I would hold you in this fragile moment in the september sun
it means everything to have you near me

To Be Your Girl

in June 1965 a 21 year old Al Kooper was invited by producer  Tom Wilson to watch a Bob Dylan  recording session...that day he and the musicians( including guitarist Mike Bloomfield who with his skill intimidated Al away from the guitar ) were recording Like a Rolling Stone..somehow  Al Kooper managed to bluff his way onto playing the organ ....It is a well known and great story.. if you dont know it listen to Al  tell it on the YouTube clip below it is  a very entertaining listen the way he conveys it ......

This song contains 2 snippets of his tale but it is best to listen to the whole thing on YouTube.
I wrote this  little mess of a song about that day;  organ included ( but I think I need to turn it up more)....
....here it is warts and all....
....and here's to being  brave enough to find our own Al Kooper moments....

Turn Up The Organ

A long time ago a bunch of players they be playin’
Tom Wilson, he gave Mr. Kooper a chance
All action reaction, so bold, I’m just sayin’
Al put on his big boy musical pants
He had thrown down his axe when he heard Bloomie riffin’
He couldn't compete with those guitaring lines
Saw a Hammond B-3 over there by its lonesome
Moved them keys to the beat, he was one eighth note behind
The sound that he shaped, it made that tune sublime

So turn up the organ
Play it loud
Bring out your inner Al Kooper
Turn up that organ
Make your momma proud
Slide in a melody
Turn up your organ
The moment is now
Extract that inner Al Kooper
And maybe you can make some history

Sometimes your world needs changing
Embellish, embolden its tempered tone
You can turn your common into a classic
Get out of that head and get into the zone
Let's mould it, shake it, sometimes even fake it
The unguarded moment, get closer to fine
Simple, transcendental, intercontinental 
Starts with a word, a note, for me a rhyme
A one in a million, once in a lifetime sign

Turn up the organ
Make it loud
Channel your inner Al Kooper
Turn up that organ
Let's wow the crowd
A 5 chord symphony
Turn up the organ
Now take a bow
Pull off a ballsy Al Kooper
Turn to the music, it's all a mystery 

Once upon a time, young Dylan rhymed 
in studio B back in 65
Once upon a time, Like A Rolling Stone
Made brick by brick and tone by tone
Once upon a time, a new sound got in
From a skinny kid, who let him in?
Oh Al, you're not on the session list
What you doin’ over there? You a guitar player
Not an organist 

Turn up that organ
Make it loud
Channel that inner Al Kooper
Turn up the organ
Make your daddy proud
Refine and remedy
Turn up the organ
Who says it's not allowed?
Be fearless like Al Kooper
Turn on to music, turn up your life
And make some history 

How does it feel?
How does it feel?
How does it feel?

Blender and Chirp is my current indie project.  I'm here to just try to improve and to listen to what other independent musicians create. "In My Lifetime" , “Routine" and “That Dam Song” were written and sang by my friend Travis Houghton.  Those along with a few of my songs are from our band called "Quite the Softie".
