WALK ON THE WILD SIDE

WALK ON THE WILD SIDE (Lou Reed Cover)

Another relic from the lockdown vault...

I wrote and recorded this at the end of 2020 (hence no mention of the events of Jan 6th 2021) but never released it at the time for various reasons. 

Given recent events I thought why not clean it up and put it out. 

Just a bit of haaahmless fun as Arnie might say :)

No One Could Steer Me Right 🌞 JTSunrise Rendition 

Merle Haggard’s iconic song “Mama Tried” delves into the pain and suffering he caused his mother due to his incarceration in San Quentin in 1957. While the song isn’t strictly autobiographical, it reflects his experiences growing up

The story behind this timeless tune:
Merle’s father passed away when he was nine years old. His mother worked tirelessly to provide for the family. Merle was a wild child. At the age of 20, he was convicted of burglary and attempted escape from county jail. His 2 1/2-year term led him to San Quentin prison, where he played in the prison’s country band and pursued high school equivalency courses and where Merle had a cosmic encounter with the Man in Black himself! 

As a 21-year-old inmate at San Quentin in 1959, Haggard witnessed Johnny Cash’s legendary prison performance as an inmate. Cash’s prison show left an indelible mark on Haggard, inspiring him not only musically but also as a beacon of redemption

Merle began his musical journey earlier in life. He was performing music before he went to prison, and after his release, he resumed working in bars and clubs. His first recording was Wynn Stewart’s “Sing a Sad Song,” which became a national hit in 1964

I saw Merle preform live when my dad VL took me to a concert at our local county fair in rural Illinois in the 1970s

Merle passed away on April 6, 2016—his 79th birthday—in the San Joaquin Valley, California. He lost a brief battle with pneumonia. Haggard’s musical legacy, spanned the 1960s to the 2010s with nearly 40 number one hits. Interestingly, he had predicted his own passing, sharing this poignant insight with his son shortly before the fateful day

The iconic song “Mama Tried” was released in July 1968. It became one of the cornerstone songs of country music, spending four weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart. It won the Grammy Hall of Fame Award in 1999 and was selected for preservation in the National Recording Registry due to its cultural significance. In 2021, it was ranked at #376 on Rolling Stone’s “500 Greatest Songs of All Time”! 🎵🌟

[Verse 1]
                D          G             D                G
The first thing I remember knowing was a lonesome whistle blowin'
      D                                 A7
A young un's dream of growin' up to ride
     D                     G         D                 G
On a freight train leavin' town, not knowin' where I'm bound
       D                   A7             D
No one could change my mind, but Mama tried

[Verse 2]
        D          G             D               G
One and only rebel child, from a family meek and mild
    D                               A7
Mama seemed to know what lay in store
          D             G                    D             G
'Despite my Sunday learnin', toward the bad I kept on turnin'
     D             A7         D
Mama couldn't hold me anymore

[Chorus]
              D                         G               D
And I turned twenty-one in prison doin' life without parole
   Bm                                 A7
No one could steer me right, but Mama tried, Mama tried
     D                                 G             D
Mama tried to raise me better, but her pleadin’ I denied,
                       A7                 D
That leaves me the one to blame ‘cause Mama tried

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
          D               G               D            G
Dear old Dad, rest his soul, he left my mom a heavy load
      D                            A7
She tried so very hard to fill his shoes
          D           G           D               G
Workin' hours without rest, wanted me to have the best
    D                 A7             D
She tried to raise me right, but I refused

[Chorus Refrain]

A song about a love affair that turned into real love. Thanks for the attention!

You made me feel

Wherever you are 
That’s where you belong
It doesn’t matter
If you’re weak or strong
It doesn’t matter
If it’s right or wrong
It doesn’t matter
If you bang a gong
Wherever you are 
That’s where you belong
Hey!
It doesn’t matter
If they string you along
It doesn’t matter
If you’re too headstrong
It doesn’t matter
Is you sing this song
It doesn’t matter
If she says so long
Wherever you are 
That’s where you belong
Wherever you are 
That’s where you belong
Wherever you are 
That’s where you belong
Wherever you are 
That’s where you belong
No one gets through life without any regrets
You have to take the leap without any nets
No one gets through life without any regrets
You have to take the leap without a net
Wherever you are 
That’s where you belong

Wherever You Are, That's Where You Belong

"Émancipés du vide ?" Mon quatrième album sous le blase M'Z est une réflexion mélancolique sur les gouffres émotionnels que l'humain entretient, sur la difficulté de nous extirper de nos attractions diverses vers le néant, nos incapacités à regarder les déchets mentaux que nous produisons sans passer par la case culpabilité, c'est une critique de la normalisation, du conformisme, du positivisme creux vanté par nos esprits trop marketés et en quête du chemin le plus rapide vers un Sens quel qu'il soit. L'illusion d'être libre dans un monde qui vante des platitudes érigées en valeurs censées incarner cette liberté et pourtant située à vingt mille lieues sous ce que pourrait être un début de chemin vers une liberté effective. Enfin, il symbolise la nécessité vitale de retrouver notre naïveté perdue et de réapprendre à voir le beau et à œuvrer en ce sens.

Les aventures de Neurosix et Psychosix :
C'est un morceau en gloire à l'animal que nous oublions bien souvent que nous sommes, une volonté de faire danser les corps et les neurones ensemble comme pour les aligner. Des notes qui cherchent la pulsion, la réaction vitale instantanée. C'est une façon d'offrir une bande son à la psyché et donner du rythme aux rêves, aux angoisses, aux tensions, aux cauchemars comme aux espoirs les plus fous. Ouvrir un terrain et une brèche pour que nos anges et nos démons internes s'expriment, trouvent un terrain de jeux, se matérialisent mais sans qu'ils prennent tout l'espace de notre pensée. Par cette expression, naît l'espoir que puisse surgir un moment de répit. Un morceau pour offrir du mouvement dans les névroses et les psychoses de chacun. L'amusement comme thérapie et comme formulation saine de ces sentiments aussi délicats que légitimes, mais dont nous avons la nécessité de matérialiser, qu'ils puissent prendre corps d'une manière ou d'une autre, pour ne pas qu'ils nous contrôlent et nous conduisent sans l'accord de notre conscience.

J'espère que le son, le sens et l'image vous plairont !

Les Aventures De Neurosix et Psychosix - (VIDEO CLIP in description)

This song  was inspired again by a photo which my friend had taken.
Canola flowers are illuminated by the moon. I hit upon the first melody seeing this mysterious photo.
In the last part I played the slide. I happened to have a very cheap junk SG type guitar. Its action was too high to play even with the bridge being set at the lowest. I thought maybe I could play the slide easier with this junk guitar. Fortunately my hunch was right:)

Talking To The Moon

Thank you for visiting my SC page!
I had been playing in rock bands for more than 40 years, but my hearing problem forced me to give up having gigs in 2015. I had to avoid loud sound to rest my ears. So I concentrated on composing and recording at home. As my original songs heaped in my hard disk, I wanted to present them to others. That's why I opened my SC page.
Since I started this page, quite a few listeners have come and given me a lot of positive comments. Much more than I expected! I am very happy to contact many excellent musicians through SC. 
I was a bit surprised that some of SC members sent me mails telling that they had the same hearing problems such as tinnitus. It's crucial for us to protect our ears because once damaged it can not recover!
In 2016 I started to play with my band again wearing ear plugs to protect my ear. It seemed to go well and our band had several exciting gigs till July, when unfortunately our bassist succumbed to disease and he passed away in August 2016. I'm really sorry for loosing him and thank him that he played with us against bad health condition.
I hope he listens to my songs in heaven.
