Just Kidding !

I have loved getting to know, appreciate, and learn from many skilled people on various music-hosting platforms over the years. Dawn Sinclair is a lyricist, poet, writer, and story-teller who I first encountered on mp3u. Per-Olov (known as Master Peo) was a composer and arranger, mostly in old swing band styles.  I also met him years ago on mp3u. This song came about because they had a story to tell about Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack, and needed a vocalist and although I did not really consider myself a crooner, I enjoyed acting and was willing to try out for the role. The result is Rat Pack Blues.
In memory of Per-Olov

Rat Pack Blues

Cast of characters:
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Taylor T5z acoustic guitar, Tom Anderson Custom T electric guitar, Gibson Earle Scruggs banjo, Eastwood MandoCaster mix, mastering, production, and composition
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Fender Precision four string bass, played with a plectrum 
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – harmonica, jaw harp, timpani, hambone percussion, and production editing     
This song began with Stephen, who recorded it on his acoustic guitar and bass to a programmed drum track a few months ago. We were all thrilled to work on it, even though it sat in BandLab as a project for almost a month before Stephen separated the tracks, thus allowing us to trickle in our parts. JJ was first to jump on it, because he could before the tracks were separated, as his part is completely his idea. He added the organ that really set up the entire sound of both dominant sections of the song. 
  Ken was first up to the project once the tracks were replaceable, making the wild, driving beat his own. Inspired by both JPJ and Michael Ivins, Josh laid down his bass line, trying to match Ken's energy. Last, but not least, Mark jumped in with the rumbling timpani. He also added the flavorful harmonica, and unique jaw harp you hear throughout, as well. Finally, Stephen also got the idea to add the hambone percussion at the very end of the song, which we all consider a treat, and after showing us how it's done, Mark volunteered his percussion skills to give it a go. Stephen wasn't done, though, and still had some magic to sprinkle. He went in and added the howling electric guitar you hear prominently in the second main section. Also, he added the tempting intro with his acoustic guitar and electric mandolin. 
  Once it was in the bag, we thought it appropriate for our master mixer Stephen to put it to bed, which he did in his always expert manner.
  This is a gift from Stephen to all of us, and you, too. It took a lot of teamwork to make the dream work, as always for Eclectic Collective. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

LICORICE ROOTS (Lyrics) Song for Dave

A little song I wrote back in September of 2023. Inspired by a beauty, who made me think of the Proverbs 31 woman. She brought this song to life, and pretty neat that her birthstone was a ruby. I even bought her a pair of ruby colored shoes. This song will always be very special. It's amazing how those little moments can hit and unexpectedly ignite a song late at night. I love those moments, cause that's what I strive to always remember. She took that picture of me on the Steinway. I hope you enjoy this live recording I did very late last night. Thanks so much for listening:) 

Ruby

I was so lonely
Thank God I found
The perfect girl
Oh in such
A dark world
She's more precious
Than the rarest ruby
In all of the world
Oh how she loves me
She's my world

I'm never letting her go
I'm never letting her go
Everyday I'm gonna show
How my love will always grow
I'm never letting her go

And I've never been so happy
She's my favorite sound
Through all my nights and days
I love to hear
The way she prays
She's more precious
Than the rarest ruby
In all of the world
She holds the key
To another world

I'm never letting her go
I'm never letting her go
Everyday I'm gonna show
How my love will always grow
I'm never letting her go

I'm never letting her go
I'm never letting her go
Everyday I'm gonna show
How my love will always grow
I'm never letting her go

And she's more precious
Than the rarest ruby 
In all of the world
I'm never letting her go

Walk Your Road

Hey! I'm colter. Thanks for stopping by! All recordings done on my old Baldwin piano that my amazingly talented grandmother gave me.  I'd like to think it holds some magic. All original songs, recorded live. I took a few years of classical lessons when I was very young, great memories, especially the snacks! 

Throughout the years I'd always tinker on my Mom's old Ludwig piano through passing, playing songs I had learned, like Fur Elise and The Spinning Song, but it wasn't till I was in college when it became an addiction. I was inspired after coming across the song "I Am For You" by Waking Ashland. Lead singer/piano player Jonathan Jones. There was an old upright in the student center that I'd sneak off to late at night, and ever since then the playing has never stopped. I was hooked. What a therapy it has been over the years. 

God is good! I'm so thankful. I hope to connect with many and make new friends:) 

Always do what you love! I have such respect for all the talented music on here! Thanks so much for listening!:) 

No Ai whatsoever, just my voice and piano, playing and singing simutaneously.
