Study # 5

Tarrega Study  # 5

Today we have winter solstice,,, here in Kópavogur, Iceland we have about 4 hours of daylight....  so for us in Iceland this is a big deal,,, no more shorter days,,, and in february we will certainly notice the difference. Until then we have dark,,, november, december, janurary,  are dark here.  However,,, I did a nice song last year on this day,, dedicated to my friend Stephan Benekin,, although we have somewhat drifted apart in the past months I cherish that song and his wonderful compositions.   So here comes the 2013 one,,,  I decided enough with the melancholic, and in with the light,,, so here comes a melancholic happy light song,,, if thats something that exists.   

My SC page is now officially again a musical blog page,,,  the explore is ruined,,, and exposure for us lower men is gone,,,   so I´m just gonna do what I do best,, spam my page with songs till there is noone following me anymore.   Probably I´ll be leaving SC in the future,, these changes they made are not for me,,, but till then I´m going to enjoy myself and spam out songs and stuff....    I want to thank all you wonderful people for commenting and sharing my music last year, it means a lot to me and I hope there are a few people out there that enjoy what I´m doing here.   I think I´ve done about 160 songs/improvs in almost two years now,,, so it´s not easy to be my follower :)

Peace and love,,, and I´m sure I´ll be spamming some more till new years.

Floating

Born in Virginia, raised in Maryland; survivor of an alcoholic  family; graduated High School and Union Carpenters Apprenticeship; a student of Algebra, a student of Life, a  brown belt Samurai Chess Player; gave up clarinet in 2nd grade because he was too young to understand;  gave up French class 5 years later because he could not speak the language; turned down Ms. Maria Blautzig for the Sadie Hawkins Dance because she had turned  down his request earlier in the school year; walked out of typing class on day one, hell HOUR one, because he could not handle the stress of it;  walked out of Oklahoma State University because he really needed help at that point and did not know how to ask for it, so ‘tear it all down and blow it up’ seemed to be the only way to find any; experienced the deepest loneliness of his entire life to date out on that highway, with no direction anywhere.  He has worked as a ditch digger, a grass cutter, a TV Guide door to door salesman; he has been a farm worker, carpenters’ helper, apprentice, a Journeyman carpenter in Local 132, a Home Improvement contractor and a Facilities Maintenance Engineer.  He has passed up more opportunities than cars on a freight train; he has hitchhiked, hobo’ed and walked across tens of thousands of miles of America's roadways, and a few in Canada, for good measure.

By virtue of  a chance encounter one snowy January night in 1993, when he met and eventually married the revolutionary communist, aspiring novelist, multi instrumentalist soprano and as yet unheralded expert at fitting leftovers into the refrigerator, the  beguiling, and sumptuous Ms. Juliana; this union subsequently created the talented, smart, bubbly, and eye-catching Ms. Sophia, she of the musical pipes.
Mr Higgins first picked up the guitar at age 23, the harmonica at 57, and wrote his first book at age 5, or 6. It shall remain forever unpublished, as the only handwritten master of it is lost to the dustbin of history.
