Not everyone is on holiday, even in the heat of summer. Some still work while the city falls silent, stretched under a long, empty day. I can’t tell if the man expects something to happen; to me, it feels like nothing will happen today either. Anyway, everything's good.

This is the third in a series of eight easy, acoustic, rather short, and deliberately inconclusive tracks, assembled by combining new ideas with reworked older material, adding parts and sounds along the way.

"Lento" is a musical term that means slow with expression.  Thank you for listening!

Lento

Yes, it's all about the ride, so forget about the finish line
Spoken words mainly from Bob Dishy and the late Philip Seymour Hoffman(in his scene stealing performance as former bagpiping childstar Sandy Lyle) from the 2004 movie Along Came Polly...Let It Rain!

If  you feel the need to bust out and solo,   Mr. Hoffman will gladly demonstrate how to find that freedom to rock out

Lyrics

Yesterday's gone                                              
But this race keeps dragging on                       
The rules they believe
Not the same for you and me 
Hard to play fair                                             
Hard not to cheat                                          
Hard just to stand on your own two feet         
No need to deceive                                        
Just walk on by                                                             
Forget about the finish line                           
Forget about that finish line                               

A prodigal son
I'm tasting moonbeams on my tongue 
Your greatest mistake 
Let's celebrate and cut the cake
Face to the wall
I turn and say cheese
Time to confess this misery 
No need to grieve
Let's dance on by
And forget about the finish line
Let's forget about that finish line

One foot in front of the other                               
Lunge, leap, somersault, and roll              
Always falling down in your bread and your butter             
Take a chance and lose yourself                        
It's not the end you need to encounter              
This life in cruise control                                     

Hard to play fair
Hard not to cheat
Hard just to stand on your own two feet 
No need to grieve
Just dance on by
Forget about that finish line 
Forget about that finish line
Forget about the finish line

Autumn Etude - Improvised Piano Piece

Presenting my first
"Neurofunk" genre production

In life there are times when it feels necessary or even unavoidable to deliberately ignore something—whether it's an injustice, a difficult truth, or a personal flaw—because facing it would be too painful, or simply too complicated.

Just Look The Other Way

This is a another song written during the pandemic in 2022. It's about the joy of reading! I know we don't read hardly anymore that's why we are pretty ignorant about science and math, look it up, don't take my word for it!! I still enjoy reading, it sparks my creativity, and opens up my imagination! It's really fabulous the trips we can make with our imagination by just reading. I whipped up seveal tales and weaved them all together into a Rock song. It is also about what happens to unread books that just turn to dust on our shelves. (Read H.G. Wells "The Time Machine" or at least watch the 1960 film!). I guess we will soon have no need for libraries!  Just I-phones! This is an adventure song, my Indiana Jones song!  

VIDEO - https://youtu.be/2R-hnrBwiDQ

      The video is brand new with loads of eye-candy for everybody. I thnk I finished it a few months ago. It'll take you on several exciting adventures!! I hope people enjoy it, we must continue to read books because when we stop reading books, then we will stop having independent thought and we become nothing more than brain dead sheep!  I'm sure that's what some evil people actually want! (Look what they did to Jimmy Kimmel!!). Read a book before they censor them and take them away! Take a look, crack a book, I guarenteed that you'll get hooked! Take care!🙏😎✌🏼

“UNREAD BOOK”

READ ME WHILE YOU CAN,     
I MIGHT JUST TURN TO DUST AND CRUMBLE IN YOUR HANDS,   
BUT I'LL NEVER WASTE YOUR TIME,               
LET ME PROVE TO YOU,    
I'M MORE THAN BORING WORDS DOWN POINTLESS AVENUES,      
I'M ALWAYS WORTH A SECOND LOOK, 
               
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,         
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,
  
READ ME, IF YOU CARE,    
WE'LL GO TO PLACES WHERE YOUR HEART WOULD NEVER DARE,      
IN A JOURNEY OF THE MIND,    
LEAVE IT UP TO ME,   
ALL YOU NEED IS THE YEARNING AND THE COURAGE TO BELIEVE,
JUST ONE LOOK WILL GET YOU HOOKED,
                       
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,           
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,     
     
A TRIP TO THE MOON OR AN ADVENTURE AT SEA,              
LET MY WORDS SET YOUR MIND FREE,                
A ROMANTIC RENDEZVOUS OR BUBBLE BATH BY CANDLELIGHT,
A CHRISTMAS DAY OR AN ARABIAN NIGHT,
            
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,             
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK, 

IF YOU'RE LONELY, COUNT ON ME,  
THERE'S NO END OF THE ROAD ONLY POSSIBILITIES,   
IMAGINATION'S ALL IT TOOK,
             
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK,             
I'M AN UNREAD BOOK.

Midnight Sun In The Haze

Colorado Springs (feat. Jazzy P)

There’s a treasure down deep in this wonderland
To find it, plug your nose, feel the dirt on your hands
The word and rhyme, a message, in a song it stands
my rock n roll Rosetta Stone 



Forget About The Finish Line
