Lyrics - The Wind
I listen to the wind, to the wind of my soul
Where I'll end up, well I think only God really knows
I've sat upon the setting sun...
But never, never, never, never
I never wanted water once
No never, never, never

I listen to my words but they fall far below
I let my music take me where my heart wants to go
I swam upon the Devil's lake...
But never, never, never, never
I'll never make the same mistake
No - never, never, never

Name That Tune #438 by Anthony Newley

Introduction in English:

Germany in the 1960s was still very much influenced by the Nazi stink. Violence and black pedagogy still prevailed in families. Beatings and spankings were part of the natural educational repertoire of parents. 
Unfortunately, my father and mother also joined this then socially accepted community of thugs.   
In this often ominous and latently threatening time, Doris Day was for me the ideal projection screen for a world full of harmony, clarity and lightness. 
Since my parents basically loved me (they themselves had been traumatized by terrible experiences of violence in Nazi Germany and, due to a lack of suitable trauma therapies at the time, unconsciously went from being victims to perpetrators when beating us children), they took my childhood crushes on Doris Day seriously and at some point gave in to my urging to write her a (fictitious) letter from Germany.... 
As an adult, I distanced myself from my childhood crush on Doris Day for a long time, since critical film analyses tended to portray her as a representative of superficial, shallow and pseudo-harmonic acting and song art. 
Then I saw her again a good ten years ago at the „Berlinale“ in a documentary with Rock Hudson and his HIV infection at the beginning of 1985. Nobody wanted to get Hudson, whose HIV infection was diagnosed in Moscow, out of there and bring him back to the U.S. by plane. Most were afraid of becoming infected themselves. 
Not so Doris Day. She, along with several other actors, organized the flight back. And when Rock Hudson, who was already seriously ill with AIDS, stepped out of the plane after landing in the U.S., she demonstratively stood next to him and put her arm around him. Even today, tears come to my eyes when I think of this unique gesture of solidarity and loyalty. 
Since that magical moment in a Berlin movie theater, Doris Day has become immortal to me. 
And I can only say: I was not at all mistaken in my early love for her....

Lyrics in English

My Blond Angel

When I was a little boy 
Just a meter high 
I fell in love with your blond hair 
That always smelled like cinnamon stars to me

I'd watch TV in the afternoon and then I'd see you 
As you came on the screen
You were pure harmony, clinically pure, high polish
You exuded carefree elegance

No one believed I could fall in love like that
Little boys are supposedly not ready for that yet

But I suffered, I pined, I was sick with love
My blond angel from the faraway land

My parents told me she lives far away from here
In the great wide U.S.A.
Her name is Doris Day and she'd already have
A husband to take care of her

But I wouldn't give up
I cried and cried until my parents realized
They found out her residence and address
And after my continued insistence,

I dictated a love letter to them both
My father translated it for her

He threw it in for me, I was still too little for that
My blond angel from the faraway land

When I sat in front of the screen the following weeks
She looked at me differently
She looked quite in love, my letter seduced her
Since then I was her little husband

For a long time I was ashamed of this love
But recently I saw her
More magical than ever
For me she remains a shining light
I love her

Mein Blonder Engel (My Blond Angel)

This tune was made famous by Fats Domino in 1956. Performed on my Yamaha PSR-SX900 arranger keyboard.

Lyrics:

CHORUS 
I will not fall
            I will own it all
            I will be that doll
          but no face, kicking down the doors like I own the place
VERSE 1
It seems to be, unbelievably, I'm deceiving me, 
Can never leave my dreams be, or I would never be me,
it's obscene to me, gotta smoke the greenery
to let my dreams be feasibly redeemed to me
never gonna run and hide, anger subsides
back into my divided mind, imprisoned I'm self-defined till I die 
keep living life on the high, good vibes, enjoy the fucking ride
my animated imagination, instigated retaliation,
can you feel my lyrical persuasion, all over, the mother fucking nation
with regrettable tears, I endear delectable fears, oh dear,
I'm a weird seer, it appears I gotta get the hell out of here
kicking gears, whenever they leer and sneer right at me
cause I'm queer and happy In here
it's very maddening, my fear of failure is draining
cause I'm always out of my mind
let my anger boil bubbles inside
live it up in the moment of time

VERSE 2
I'm a poet don't I know it, I own it
Don't know where the show it, I stole it
It's not coincidental, I'm about to go mental on this detrimental instrumental
very temperamental, so suspenseful with the pencil
can't draw my mind out? here's a stencil
the powerful passion that I bring and sing 
diabolical crashing while changing lyrical flows faster than mood swings
hip hop hippidy skip I dip pip pop colder than dipping dots 
hip don't stop hopping, caught you off guard 'cause you don't know what's happening
'cause I gotta be going, never be slowing, 
keep on running from the people who are always controlling
and I'm the only one who is friends with me
you better stay away from me 'cause I'm my only enemy
it's the end of me, won't pretend to be friendly 'cause
I'm a very scary visionary who studies the dictionary 
make the little critics very weary cause 
I'm a proud outcast 
Andre 3000 knows that
and I'll kick anybody's ass
for putting my music on blast

Chee$y Wrap $ong

This is a song that Chris wrote and shared with Ken and me. We all used BandLab to work on the song together. it started with Chris' badass bass line and arrangement. Ken added some killer drums, in a very odd time. then I add some guitar over the top. I really like how this sounds like we're in room jamming together. Also, Chris produced and mixed this one, and another excellent job he did! We all hope you enjoy it!

Over Easy (with cgmaness and K2 and the Three)

So this was going to be a nineties throwback petshop boys style piece. I could never get it right, it's such a nihilistic piece. This is a very rough version, two takes on the piano, and a few takes on the vocal.

Let’s go, just you and I, 
while the world still dreams below the starry sky
Down the lonely street into an empty town 
From our mindless sleep on to Hallowed ground

I always thought there would be time
but i watched it slip away before my eyes
Yet we had time for our goodbyes
Looking out, at the edge of the demise

Without you here, what would I be?
Within your arms, you comfort me
You keep me close, 
you set me free!

It doesn’t end with a whimper or a bang, 
We just slowly fade to black from where we came
It doesn’t end in flood or fire,
It all just simply falls to our desire

will there ever be another?

Why Are All The Angels Eyes Missing Daddy And Why Are You Smiling?

LYRICS:
VERSE 1:
Criticize those kneeling
extemporize my feelings
realize why I'm healing
dilapidated people gaze through the peephole
sanctimonious sly smiles
can't control us, I'm in denial
whimsical behavior for the golden power
all of my saviors devour the cowards
lava lamp like lumps in my throat
fist pumping, bass pumping, feel it down to my toes
and I idolize all the eyes that move through my little eyes
I'm surprised, my disguise, getting criticized 
immobilize all of my past mistakes, in my mind,
drive at night, do whatever it takes, to survive,
traumatized, keep my foot off the brakes, revitalized,
And I 

CHORUS: 
I know the world for what it is
I grow old full of more questions
look down at my hands, whose hands are these?
Glare at the wrinkles in the mirror where is me
childhood memories, 
fade away

VERSE 2
 
Now you are in my way 
I can't count the daze
I've been stuck In a daze
of green haze, sticking to my old ways
Catatonic thoughts as I spiral
be erotic for the new arrival
candle light caught dancing with shadows
inner demons adorn angel-like halos
lava lamp like lumps in my throat
bass pumping fist pumping, feel It down to my toes
seeing my parents growing old, I don't know how to handle it
in the dark where do we go? I don't know, keep the candle lit 
no longer innocent, feeling it, oooh it's so intimate, I'm killing it
and I'm getting fucking sick of it, growing old, oh oh I'm not feeling it

CHORUS REPEAT

END

THANK YOU FOR LISTENING:) PEACE AND LOVE PEACE AND LOVE

Lyrics:

All grows dim, time is winding down
My cheeks stay hovered over a puddle of brown
The voices outside of this cramped little box
These choices i've made to breed these cramped up blocks

The shit bubbles burst and trap all the flies
A concoction so twisted, Only someone like Bill Nye
Can decipher all these lies
Can scythe all of these cries
as this pit of stench boils in the middle of July

Out there the souls, eager for pressure to burst
Through their minds like a submarine tank submersed
Parades gather in the grass for the show to start
While these waves slowly rip my brain apart

A wetness caresses my hang lo mein
This water is rising am I going insane?
It tickles my demons but it feels so ripe
There's always a bit of shit at the end of the pipe!

I'm in a fecal position where the turds capsize
In a fetal position where my sanity dies
This suddenly doesn't seem so real anymore
As the septic tank thickens with the sludge of war
Where the turds capsize
In a fetal position where my sanity dies
This suddenly doesn't seem so real anymore
As the septic tank thickens with the sludge of war
The slimy hand of stench, Pulls me right down
In a puddle of madness, many shades of brown
NO NO NO NO NOOO!
Get a little taste of the waste in the swamp!

Antonin Artaud (1896-1948) was a French writer, poet, draughtsman, actor, dramaturge and theatre theorist

The picture shows an excerpt of one of his drawings

Please, if you like, take also a listen to the remix by  https://soundcloud.com/33per/artuad?si=17522a37f7564140bcd237b9b3baa986&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

By sheer accident I came across this small and riveting book by Stephen Barber, that was recently published by Diaphanes. It is called "A Sinister Assassin". It provides translations of Antonin Artaud's last writings (September 1947 - March 1948)

The following text is the last entry in his notebook:






so, the same figure
returns every 
morning (he is an other)
in order to accomplish his 
	revolting, criminal 
	and murderous, sinister 
	mission which is to 
	maintain
the state of bewitchment cast upon
me  (2)

and continue to
make of me
this eternally
bewitched man
		etc etc (2)

Atlanta’s “Bog Witch” and Boise’s “Mystic Tape Deck” announce the release of a new collaborative single, “Dogs of Chernobyl” to mark the anniversary of the Chernobyl Disaster.

Following the April 26, 1986 nuclear accident, the City of Pripyat was evacuated. The residents were forced to leave their pets (including domestic dogs) behind.  

Nearly 40 years after the accident, the descendants of these dogs are still living in the Exclusion Zone and a study is currently taking place. 

Scientists are sampling the DNA of the dogs. Apparently, their DNA is irregular in some interesting ways.

Wendy writes “I couldn’t sleep one night and picked-up my phone to surf when I noticed an article about the radioactive dogs of Chernobyl.  Right away it seemed like a song.”  

Wendy invited Mystic Tape Deck to collaborate with her in creating the sonic pallet for this song, the proceeds from all sales of which will be donated to the Clean Futures Fund. 

The Clean Futures Fund relies upon donations to provide medical supplies, vaccines, and food for the dogs living in the Exclusion Zone.

Teth Sin finally seems to be back with a cool wicked track called Gazelle, featuring his friend Luna on vocals/recitation. She decorated with her vivid poetry one of those creepy, dark soundscapes I've been working on these last few months. I sincerely thank her for this amazing contribution, and for her active involvement in the whole creative process of this title. Thanks for taking the time to listen to it.

Uncrowned queens, warrior princes,
the tiger flies in the air.
The flag howls in the cold of the sad west, and blond curls win.
The panther's lost the game, watching the sun.
The Gazelle weeps on her broken leg.
And she's alive

Lyrics:
Verse One
Sunday turned into Friday 
I spent 5 days
Hiding
Trying everything to forget you
Trying to get back to my youth

Pre - Chorus
Oh, 
how things have changed
I’ve fallen from grace
I miss the days
When it was just me
Before I met you
Before I got all these wounds

Chorus
you said
I’ll love you always
But always is a promise
That no one can keep
Thought you were the one in my dreams
Guess I’ll just keep fantasizing

Verse Two
Im awake at 2am
In a cold sweat
Cause the bed 
Gets colder and colder 
Dont know what I’m doing
It’s so confusing
Can’t find my footing

MY_HEART

This work is also a collaboration with Marco Turrini following the previous work. We tried what happens if I play "MEMORIES OF THE PAST" which is one of Marco's masterpieces together with him.How I would add my interpretation to this work while making full use of Pink Floyd's flavor and Marco's honed sensibilities, that was my problem.A big fan of Pink Floyd can not defile the honor of Pink Floyd.  :)
I sincerely thank Marco Turrini again. Also, I would like to confess that I'd like to express my respects to the many musicians who gave me a lot of musical influences, involved in this work.
And thank you for listening to this work from the bottom of my heart.

The key:Gm , C

When I listened to the sound source of Marco's "MEMORIES OF THE PAST ... TRIBUTE", the first thing I came up with was  "Breathe" by Pink Floyd. It is one song in the album "THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON". Then, on "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" (included in  "Wish You Were Here ")A famous performance came back in my mind. This may be better known.
Both are masterpieces. There are a lot of name performances left. I will introduce it below.
By listening to that songs again, why I remembered that songs, I could find something in common between them, and at the same time you will be noticing something completely different.
What Marco drew for this song is Marco's "Pink Floyd", not Pink Floyd itself. Indeed, I feel an exceptional talent to him. For example,I'd like you to check the chord progression of the second part of this song. Mr.Marco treats it so that it is not cleverly noticed immediately,You will notice that the essence of a famous song nicely included. There should be many people who understood by just listening.Therefore, the title of this song is "MEMORIES OF THE PAST ... TRIBUTE", I do not ask Marco, I imagine arbitrarily and enjoying it. :)

You can listen to the original sound at Marco's page.

MEMORIES OF THE PAST...TRIBUTE (with Marco Turrini Orch.)

Remembering old friends and places with such great images.  This song
was written by Lyle Lovett and Robert Earl Keen Jr,. while they attended
Texas A&M in the late 70's. It was released by Lyle in 1986.  What an American singer and songwriter.  A gem of a song

This Old Porch   (  cover - Lyle Lovett)

This is a true story about my Uncle A. J. Holly that died in WWII before I was born. His music died in that war...but with this song his memory lives on. Thanks for all the plays and comments. Original (BMI)

The Guitar Man (Lyrics by Tony Harris - Featuring Phillip Clarkson) original 2013

My Frist Track for the new album. Mixing with my new high end equipment. A song of reflection about the early music festival scene near San Francisco  where I grew up.

Freedom Free Love Free To Be Heard by GLEN GRANTHEM
Play it like you use to play it when you were young
Tearing up a fret board until you reached number one
Spend those days on the green lost in the crowd
Shoulder to shoulder as the band rocks out
Singing songs about peace and love and Smoking grass as guitars strum

Day after day the music was life 
Turntables spin all through the night
One hand on a pipe carved out of stone
All your friends felt right at home
With both hands in the air and Every face wore long hair
Viet Nam was miles away  Every song had its place
Solo
The sixties were like no other time in our life
Draft cards ,Protests , Equal rights
We were coming of age to save the world
Freedom , Free Love , Free To Be Heard
Singing songs about peace and love Smoking grass as Guitars Strum
With Both hands in the air 
Singing Songs About Peace and Love.....
