Sehr geschmeidig gesungen und gespielt! Und auch an anderen Instrumenten als der Gitarre kannst du brillieren! Eine angenehme Hörüberraschung war das!

@samantha-hubbs hearing this (again), makes me almost fall in love with you :) :)

nice rhythm.  reminds me of Patti Smith’s Dancing Barefoot.   

really love this song.  beautiful retro vibe.  gorgeous warm vocal.  

Really cool song,  great guitars anf vox. Groove is very relaxed!  Fine music.

Very attractive collaborative track with deep nostalgic feeling! Great vocal and instrumentation!

back for another listen... love the Patti Smith (dancing barefoot) vibe and the Nico-esque vocal...  beautiful track.

Sometimes you've just got to put the umbrella up, face the cold and rain, and head to the pub for some whiskey and blues, then a coffee to see you home. Feeling good with the blues!

Making Movies

I have been playing with this song for a while..  I decided to use 'found sounds' for a lot of the backing music - the photo is from a roadtrip I was lucky enough to take through Europe 3 years ago and the car sounds are variously from a holiday roaming the streets of Wellington NZ.  :-)

***************************************************************

I was dreaming of an ocean, but the only waves I heard
were the slapping of the rubber, as the cars flew down the road,
And the streetlights make a sunset, concrete’s like a castle
Kinda think I’ve been a-roving, I’ve been on the road too long

Let auld acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind,
I think of you an awful lot, I dream of you sometimes,
I’m driving endless highways, where no-one knows my name
Red flowers growing on the side of the road and the rain falls, just the same

I was dreaming of an ocean, bells that rang and no-one came
Cars keep rolling down that highway in the blind eternal rain,
And the echo is an emptiness I never thought to see,
Guess I’ve thrown away the everything that meant a thing to me

There’s colour in the desert now, a place I once called home,
It’s a greening time, it’s a summer wine, no need to stand alone,
And the sun’s falling down so wild and sweet, I pick it up and run and run
I never knew, I never knew that life could be so fine

The fruit hangs heavy on the vine, the blossom’s on the bean,
some stay the same while others change, some winds that set you free,
I rode the winds , I climbed the cliffs, the mountains to the sea,
And now I stand where I began, hello, it’s only me

Let auld acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind
I think of you an awful lot, it helps to pass the time,
I’m driving endless highways, where no-one knows my name
red flowers growing on the side of the road and the rain falls just the same

Colour Of Your Face

For me dreams are the most common access humans have to their soul and to other realms of consciousness. It is hard to grasp them with words, so I rather let the voice and the melody try to find the way through some scenes of some dreams I had. Many, many thanks to Myckaël Marcovic (@myckael-marcovic) for his impressive knowledge and support mastering the song. He opened me fascinating doors to this totally new field for me - I will try to follow his footsteps in the next songs...

Google translation of the lyrics:

I dream of old friends
about an old city
I often have old fears
In some dark nights, in some dark nights

I sleep close to a beautiful women
and caress her gently
I'm naked and at the mercy
in some dark nights, in some dark nights

Sometimes in dark corridors
in this old town
trapped in constraints
that I make myself during the day, that I make myself during the day

Even in dark corridors
in this old town
trapped in constraints
in some dark nights, in some dark nights

Coming soon...

Dreams in the dark

A song about liking someone and not telling them, and not at all dwelling on that many years later...


Verse 1
So… Here I go again
Not saying the words running through my mind, that it’s you I’ve wanted all this time and
No… I cannot get myself to say it
To your face when I’m with you these words just seem so out of place

Chorus
And I’m lying to you and lying to myself,
Deep down I know nobody else can make me
Feel - quite - like - this - I - can’t - help – it
All I see is visions of you looking through me
Like you never knew me

Verse 2 
And hey… it’s far too late to let it show
Now I’m in orbit all around you 
And your mates, and I am bound to keep a
Straight… face while you fall in love with someone else and 
Parade her past me, and surely it’s plain to see that I am

Chorus
Lying to you and lying to myself,
Deep down I know nobody else can make me
Feel - quite - like - this - I - can’t - help – it
All I see is visions of you looking through me
Like you never knew me

Bridge
And I’m not dwelling on the fact
That I never got to tell you that
I liked you from the very first time we met
How pathetic I held it back for all these years
So cheers to frozen fears and cold regret
About the things I should’ve said to you
When I could like I was always mad about you
And here’s to never seeing you again
To never being more than friends, 
Holding hands on the beach or the middle of the street, you’re out of reach and I still

Chorus
See those visions of you looking through me
Like you never knew me
Looking through me
Like you never knew me

Thanks to Gerhard Richter (@Myopus) for mastering that piece!

Concertino for Cello Part 1(mastered by @MyOpus)

This is another medley of off the cuff, rough and raw live recordings strung together from the past with an added vocal harmony track. They’re all cover songs done with acoustic guitar and pretty much unadulterated, for better or worse. This one is a bit shorter than my last entry of a similar effort, figuring it might hold listeners interest a little better if not too strung out. Nothing fancy, background noise and lo-fi but a bit of live fun to share as if you were just stopping by the house for a beer...hope you like barrel-aged barleywines and double IPAs! 🍻
