Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Ah, look at all the lonely people!

Eleanor Rigby
Picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window
Wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for? 

Father McKenzie
Writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near
Look at him working
Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Ah, look at all the lonely people!

Eleanor Rigby
Died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

Piano arrangement and performance by Australian jazz pianist Doug McKenzie.

My friend and soon to be epic guitarist, Matt Warnick and I recorded this song in the back of the old Hollywood Guitar Center in 1978 in between customers in the ProSound room. This track was recorded on a Sound Workshop four track cassette recorder and using a Linn drum Computer that had just come into being and was going to be picked up later that afternoon by Todd Rundgren's manager. Enjoy our throwback Thursday production and arrangement that we thought was not bad for the recording medium used.
The owner of Sound Workshop Inc. "Michael Tapes" heard this demo two days before the Namm show in  Anaheim California and gave me the recorder in trade for this cassette tape to use as a demonstration during the show. I guess this would be my very first endorsement deal.
warts and all. Here it is ))))))))))))))))))

HighWay Man (Conover/Splintered Finger)

They Got Me Crawling in a snow drift
They got me shaken in my boots.
They say it’s all this global warming
I think they’re play'n in cahoots

It’s gonna be a long long winter 
mark my word
It’s gonna be a long long winter
I’ll give it to you on that!
It’s gonna be a long long winter 
mark my word
funny mouth sound made with index finger

They Got Me Crawling in a snow drift
They got me shaken in my boots.
They say it’s all this global warming
I think they’re play'n in cahoots

It’s gonna be a long long winter 
mark my word
It’s gonna be a long long winter
mark my word.
repeat and go inside by the fire..

Rosewood - Solo version - (Collaborative alternative version with Jörg S on Sax in description)

An instrumental lullaby that I wrote for my daughter who arrived recently and has turned my world on it's head (in the most amazing way) :)

Mia's Lullaby

This is an old traditional Malagasy song,
we did for you 

Kitana on vocals 
Rina on piano

Mifankatiava ihany
Raha mbola velona aina
Tsy misy toy izany ny mampifaly saina

Ny maty efa lasa
Tsy azontsika antsoina
Isika no mikasa
Ny ratsy hadinoina re

Ny maty efa lasa
Tsy azontsika antsoina
Isika no mikasa
Ny ratsy hadinoina

Koa raha tsy fotoana ela
No hipetrahana eto
Andeha re
Andeha re mba hifamela
Andeha hifamela mba tsy harahin-tsento
Mba tsy harahin-tsento
Andeha re(Andeha re)
Mba hifamela
Mba tsy arahin-tsento

tranlation:
Let’s love one another
While we are still alive
There’s nothing more joyful than that for the soul

The dead are already gone
We can no longer call them back
It’s up to us now
To let go of the wrongs

The dead are already gone
We can no longer call them back
It’s up to us now
To let go of the wrongs

So if our time here
Is not for long
Let us go
Let us go and forgive each other
Let us forgive, so no sorrow remains
So no sorrow remains
Let us go (Let us go)
To forgive
So sorrow won’t follow

This is my soundtrack for the short film "Hagstone" by the skilled and passionate filmmaker Jamie Hawkins (Side Owl Productions):
https://youtu.be/rkEFSkEAOBM?si=7iHl64RgSro5IUY3

As always this is supposed to blend with the images, sounds and dialog. Hence the best experience will be to watch the film as a whole.

For all the composers and sound nerds out there: You might want to have a look at my YouTube shorts where I show a lot of "behind the scenes" material, especially the recorded instruments:

Hagstone (Original Short Film Soundtrack)

Cast of characters:
Surfers Like Us– @user-411502040 –Artur–composition, arrangement, and Fender Jaguar foundational rhythm guitar
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ, envelope synth, and vocals
K2 and the Three [and the Four]-- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –four string fretless bass and vocals
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez– Fender Stratocaster electric guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–Fender Nashville Telecaster electric guitar, sitar, mix, master, and production

This song began its life in Poland, where our resident surf rock specialist, Artur, composed it on his giutar. He is a brilliant composer and expert player, so we're always glad to receive music from him. 
  Artur gave it to JJ to start the project, so JJ was first to the trough here, adding his breathy, moving organ throughout, as well as some slick envelope synth. Ken came along shorly after to give the song its heartbeat, adding his triumphant drums. As soon as he had a beat to play to, Josh added his four string fretless bass to the mix, completing the rhythm section. 
  Now it was the other guitarists turn to take a whack at it. Tez was first up, adding the magical the first and third solos, in the verse sections. He also lit up the intro and outro sections with some dynamic guitar solos, as well. Stephen went last, filling in the second and fourth solo sections in the choruses, as well as a textural guitar that you hear throught most of the song. He also added the exotic sitar you hear in about the middle. After all the music was laid down, Artur had the idea to add the vocal chorus towards the end, which Josh and JJ sung in four part harmony.
 Once we had it in the bag, we asked Stephen to produce it for us, which he did in his always trained, professional manner. 
  This is the eighth song we've done with Artur over the past about year and a half. We adore his music and him as a person, too. If you dig this song, you should hop over to his page and have a listen in case you're not already familiar. He loves surf music, and wanted to note the passing of surf rock legend, Brian Wilson this week. Wilson was more than just Pet Sounds, although that album is top class. He was a surf rock pioneer, who influenced a whole genre of music; a genre that's near and dear to Artur's heart. 
  We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

We all live between Sun and Moon
Love and Peace
That's all what we do

Some saw the sun
Some saw the smoke
Some heard the gun
Some bent the bow
Sometimes the wire must tense for the note
Caught in the fire, say oh
We're about to explode

Carry your world, I'll carry your world
Carry your world, I'll carry your world

Some far away
Some searched for gold
Some dragon to slay
Heaven we hope is just up the road
Show me the way, lord.... Because Im about to explode

Carry your world, I'll carry your world
Carry your world, I'll carry your world
Carry On

I can’t fall in love with you
This would never work in a million years
I trust my heart in situations such as these
This would never work in a million years

Step by step I hear you calling
Do you need my help
Where can I find you
Step by step I hear you falling
Can I help you
Can I help you

I helped my mother to pay off the farm
I counted chickens after school
I was a hard working lad
I helped my mother to pay off the farm
I counted chickens 
I was a hard working lad

I can’t fall in love with you
This would never work in a million years
I trust my heart in situations such as these
This would never work in a million years

Step by step I hear you calling
Do you need my help
Where can I find you
Step by step I hear you falling
Can I help you
Can I help you

I helped my mother to pay off the farm
I counted chickens
I was a hard working lad

We shall see how things work out
We shall see how things become unworkable

Man don't need direction
Man know where to go
Women need da roadmap 
Wanna know where to go

Can't we please find a way to explore all the differences
Can't wait please find a way to move forward down the road

Will you need a compass
Will you find the north star
Flying by the seat of your pants

Read your maps and make a firm plan
Fill up with petrol and take plenty of snacks

Man don't need direction
Man know where to go
Women need da roadmap 
Wanna know where to go
