Lovely melllow flow to the melody and that piano sounds so lush. Great writing and performance Chris your vocal is so believable 👍

a beautiful song and tribute Chris -- again you've put some killer changes ( "our *favourite*)  "let's *go* out"  that really elevate the song  (and a nice mandolin part hiding in plain sight)  --for me it's the wonderful, surprise chord changes that make a tune magic --  nice work!!!

A few small changes to the words...
This was tough, I have such a rough time with vocals, i rerecorded some of them and remixed the track..

Getting up at 4a m before the birds are singing
Rise and shine to the smell of coffee percolating
Load up the truck put the gear in the boat we’ll spend the day out fishing 
What a way to spend a saturday, out on the river 
And the coffeeville road is dark and long but we know which way to go
we’ve been this way a million times to our favorite fishing hole…
The old lock and dam on the Tombigbee river..

Take me down to the river one more time
Let me put my feet in the water to ease my mind 
Let’s go while there’s still time, while the light still shines
And we can feel the breeze, and watch the wind blow through the trees 
The way it used to be  
 
The river is life, the river is love, but the river is tough sometimes
And the river is hope, the river  is dreams , as  it runs through our lives
it’s full of the memories of the times we had together
And it feels like it goes on and on, but nothing lasts forever

 And the Coffeeville road don’t seem as long as it did those years ago
And were going one more time to our favorite fishing hole..

Take me down to the river one more time
You can put your feet in the water to ease your troubled mind
Let’s go while there’s still time, while the light still shines
And we can feel the breeze, and watch the shadows through the trees
My Dad and me…

The stone columns of the Roman arch of Caparra, like gingantic strings played by the force of the wind.

MEDITATION 2 : PETRICHOR

My friend Jeff Roberts did an incredible remix of this humble song and turned it into something really fantastic, more than I thought possible! He is also responsible for the  bass and drums, and additional guitar, keys and all the other cool things in the mix. He is a talented musician as well as a  great producer/engineer. Thank you Jeff!

We Finally Found The Rhythm <<Jeff Roberts REMIX>>

Don't you hate it when people start describing a dream they had? I hope not..

I saw an angel in my  dream
Torn and tattered were her wings
And She revealed the truth to me
And it brought me to my knees
It made everything so clear
And my eyes filled with tears
But when i wiped the tears away
Her words had faded in the day

I met a man who came to me
From a land across the sea
He had stardust in his eyes
as we looked toward the sky
He held my face in his two hands
I  felt the fire flow through his veins
And I trembled in my fear
As I whispered in his  ear

Show me the way to get back home
Show me the place where i belong
Give me the stars to light the road
Show me the way to get back home

if it's not too late
Show me how to change our fate
and we all have lost the way
And there's no time left to wait

As i stand before you now
Feeling naked and ashamed 
At the mercy of it all
because I gave it all away

Angel, please return to me

Show Me The Way Home

You know it's true, the robots are coming....

Cage City

As a child growing up in Liverpool during the eighties, I witnessed first hand the struggles people had to endure because of the government’s neglect of our city. The government got away with neglecting its children, whilst Yosser and no doubt many like him had theirs taken away.

Yosser Hughes, the fictional character from Alan Bleasdale's incredible television series 'Boys from the Blackstuff', depicted a single father unable to find work whilst trying to look after his three children. 

The perception of Yosser back then, and probably still now is that he was a crazy, weak, and dangerous person. The reality though, is that Yosser’s behaviour was fuelled by many factors, not just povery, lack of work, and a broken relationship that we witness on screen.

Mental health awareness was zilch back then and most men today like Yosser find it impossible to talk about their struggles in life. This is largely due to the stigma of being perceived as weak. The only person he felt that he could open up to was a priest behind a veiled confessional box, who seemingly offered no help, support or guidance.

There will have been many traumatic events in Yossers life, all as a result of a cycle of poverty and lack of support and understanding that was generationally passed down. 

Yosser struggled on with his failing mental health, but clearly his love remained for his children. He kept looking for work, feeding his children, doing the best he could with what little he had. He like many was unfortunately doomed to succeed, and yet if he had been given help and support he could have brought his children up and been there for them. His wife, like Yosser just another casualty of the continuing cycle of victims, and sadly their children next.

Anyone struggling with their mental health should break free from the societal  stigma and speak to someone. You’re only human and can’t carry that weight alone. You are not alone and It’s ok to be vulnerable, it’s what makes us human. Just please ask someone for help!

Additionally, If you know someone who may be struggling with things, ask them if they want to talk, lend your ear, normalize their worries or concerns, and encourage them to seek help and support.

‘Colorful crochet’ fisherman wanders the streets sipping a calyx staring blankly colorful crochet unknown a poster half torn with the portrait of a woman with close-fitting dress with calyx-shaped breasts breasts wanting to coming out he drops the calyx Busting red wine flows through the maze of sidewalk the wine activates the planet the planet begins to turn he puts the hands in the pockets tear the lining of the pockets a child shoots him with a plastic pistol and goes away jumping and laughing he faints into the liner of the pockets: the long corridors of dreams where tears come together in the wishing well where poets taste the sault the salt that breaks the chains of fear where the voice strips the shadows
