My Morning Josephine

Some time ago John Baker (@ldchool) sent me this great backing track he created and asked me to play a lead break on it. After I did we recognized that this track strongly deserves vocals. So I sat down and searched for some words to get some lyrics together and thought of a melody to sing. Then asked my friend Marcus to come over and sing. We all are very satisfied with the result. Thanks to John's mixing skills and Marcus' voice it turned out quite nice.

Words

You know there's a story going on inside of me
When I sit down all I wanna do is feel free inside of my head
I don't wanna ever feel like I'm a burden to you
I don't wanna feel like a burden weighing down on you

And sometimes I talk to myself
Telling myself this is not the way to be
Sometimes I feel so depleted
I have no energy at all
I don't feel like being this way
But when I'm a million miles away from you, sitting in the same room
All I feel is sadness and gloom

And I don't want to burden you with my feelings at all
And I don't want to burden you at all

Break

Don't take me wrong I don't want to burden you at all
And you know in my heart that I would burn for you

Sometimes I think that, that you would get along fine if I was gone
Sometimes when you're not here
I see it all float away
I wanna let you know what I'm feeling but I just can't let go
I don't want to spoil this moment
I so just want to let you know

I don't want to be a burden to you
And you know in your heart I that would burn for you

No Burden

A wee song written for our monthly online meet - prompt was to write something inspired by travel and this is what I ended up with! (I'm a genuine train lover, though, great way to travel).

Created using Apple Loops at home as I still get to grips with using a DAW.

Train

Train – it’s the way to go
Gets you there 
Without driving woe
Read your book
Or watch the world glide by
Train’s the way to go
Don’t get stuck in no traffic jam
it’s so easy
to go with the flow
Be wild with your free time
Have a little buffet
Say a little rhyme

I’ll tell you why you should take the train
It’s going to save you hours of pain
Why get there grumpy, tired and low?
Come and snooze on-the-go! 

Train - it’s the way to see
Parts of the country
That you’ve never been to
Find a map and pick a place to see today

Train’s the way to go
Travel express 
or station to station, more slowly
Night or day, a friendly guard
Is there to smooth your way

Break

Train’s the way to go
Gets you there 
With a happy glow
Why sit in that traffic jam 
Pumping your hand on the horn?
Won’t get anywhere
Except bored
Train’s the place to be
For writing that essay
Or watching that show on TV
As the world passes by 
Plug in your headphones
Happy sigh…

Choose train… outro

Many thanks to Chuck for his work on this track. The lyrics that inspired him are listed below.
Lyrics by Tony Harris
Vocals, Music and Mix by Chuck Aaron

HE GREW UP ON A SMALL RANCH
WHERE THE WINTERS WERE HARD
THE SNOW WAS ALWAYS FALLIN'
WITH MOUNTAINS IN HIS BACKYARD

HIS DADDY LEFT HIM THAT RANCH
AND A BIG HEARD OF CATTLE
WHEN HE LEFT THIS OLD WORLD
EVERYDAY IS A NEW BATTLE

DRIVING TO TOWN ONE MORNIN' 
WAY BEFORE DAYLIGHT
HE HELPED A GIRL CHANGE A TIRE
IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT

(CHORUS)
HE LOVES THAT COWGIRL
HIS REASON FOR GETTIN' UP
IN THE COLD MORNINGS
SHE FILLS HIS HEART WITH JOY
YEA...SHE FILLS HIS HEART WITH JOY

THEY WORK LONG HOURS
ON THAT OLD RANCH
DURING THE LONG WINTERS
AND LOVE EVERY MINUTE

LOVE KEEPS THE COWBOY
AND COWGIRL TOGETHER
WORKIN' THE RANCH BRINGS THEM JOY
NO MATTER HOW BAD THE WEATHER

WELL, THE COWBOY LOVES HER
THE COWGIRL LOVES HIM
THEY BOTH LOVE COWBOYIN'
AND GOD LOVES THEM

(REPEAT CHORUS 2 times)

All tracks  are recorded in a spontaneous manner typically in a single take. Most lyrics are also spontaneous improvisations derived from the feelings of the moment. We let the guitar and drums interact and the music just happens. Most if not all of the music is inspired from this interaction.

The recording equipment up until January 2019 consisted of a dated Fostex 8 track and a few microphones...We simply lay down a guitar and drum track and let it unfold the way you are hearing it by bouncing tracks. We just have to make music to live. Music of any kind, music that speaks for itself... 

In January 2019 recording equipment was upgraded to Logic X and a UA Apollo MKll Quad Core Recording interface...We entered a new building and still trying to find the light switch so bare with us as we keep lighting matches...
