Guys this is so good, absolutely love it. I remember the year it came out. You absolutely do it justice and then some.

back for more D - a classic so beautifully interpreted

A true labor of love to accomplish this! All the time & study involved! I hope it didn't make you never want to hear it again haha! :-D Bravo, Dave & Jimmy!

Wow! What a cover of an old favourite of mine. Great performance and production 🎶😊👍

This sounds great, but the guitar and drums seem to be out of sync… is it intended?

Stunningly brilliant and totally epic cover....outstanding work, Dave & Jimmy!

Awesome cover, great work from both of you 👏

coming closer to our second album. This is a quirky song we like that started from some drum loop, we refreshed it and polished it, we will continue to work on the mix, here is a draft mix! Let us know what you think

Somebody Waiting (Demo)

A cover version by Jimmy Rivas and myself of the gorgeous Led Zeppelin track, ‘The Rain Song’. Written by Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, it appeared on their 1973 album ‘Houses of the Holy’.

  I’ve always loved the song and decided earlier this year to learn how to play it and having learned it, I thought I’d attempt to record it. I wanted to make it a big production and after more time and more takes than it probably took Led Zeppelin to record the entire album, I ended up with something I thought sounded half decent, so I sent it to Jimmy and asked if he’d care to join me. Luckily for me he agreed and sent me an outstanding vocal track stamping his unmistakable mark on the song. Thank you Jimmy.

The Rain Song (Jimmy & Dairv)

New start after finishing SC and Spotify Album - Eccentricity so Beautiful.
This title jumped off a page and lately in the live act we've been doing some 80s songs: I think that influenced the approach here.
 
Decarbonizing Aviation
Decarbonizing Aviation
 
It’s a new concsiousness
Vapor trails gone West
Sometimes you got to make a change
To keep love on forever’s path
Your shaking trees are exhausting me
Better a sundown heart to heart
 
Decarbonizing Aviation – night swimming and seeing it spark
Decarbonizing Aviation – going steady yeah not too fast
 
Glaciers and shrinking
Habitats and mourning
Can we glide the plane back home
Gotta give up on bad bad stuff
Seven days of denial nights
I think we know that enough’s enough

Decarbonising Aviation

Cast of characters:

Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – backup organs (Wurlitzer and B3), VST steel drums, vocals, lyrics, composition, production, mix     
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- Yamaha Genos 2 electric piano voice and lead organ
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – Epiphone Les Paul electric guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Fender Custom Shop Telecaster electric guitar and mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and percussion
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Fender Precision four string bass

This song began with Mark, who fleshed out the entire thing, from the rhythm section, to the organ that you hear in there, to the lyrics and vocals, before he laid it on the rest of us. We all got a chuckle from the tongue in cheek humor of the lyrics, and were excited to work on a song about an anachronistic adventure of a soulful caveman. 
  Ken was first up with his version of the the beat, finding the soul in the rhythm. Josh was next up, of course, using his "normie" bass for the his version of the line. Once the rhythm section was in place, it was JJ's turn to shine, adding his slick, soulful e. piano to the mix. 
  Now that they had a solid foundation on which to play, Stephen and Tez added their guitar magic to the mix. Stephen with the rhythm and the fills, and Tez with the ripping solo at the end. Mark also added the festive VST steel drums that you hear throughout at this point, too. Now that the music was laid down, he perfected his awesome vocals to complete it.
  It was in the can at that point, and just needed Mark to throw a pro sounding mix on it. Then, Stephen mastered it in his always expert way to finish it off.
  Mark wanted to record an old skool classic Soul song (a la Al Green), which he did, all on his own. But then, once he unleashed it onto the EC gang for their interpretation, they ran with it in a whole new, almost tropical direction, and it was decided to release 2 versions of the song, both of which you can find on Mark's page. Stephen does double duty on guitar for both versions. 
  This was a real team effort, even though it's really Mark's baby. The Eclectic Collective has many different methods of creating music. This one was a great exercise in trying to bring about Mark's vision. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.
Original lyrics by mistermark:

Walking through this concrete jungle
I’m just trying to stay out of the way 
just me and ol’ Rex, my furry companion 
we been fielding funky looks all day
then somebody saw me kicking rocks with my bare toes
he said buddy have you lost your way?
then I sat right down and I started to cry
and this is what I had to say…

I’m a caveman, I can’t catch a break
everybody says I’m so passé 
I’m a caveman, it’s too much to take
I’m ancient history or so they say 

Sittin’ in my man cave watching the clock crawl
there's nothing good on my tv 
my big grubby hands can’t flip thru the channels
i cant even hold a cup of tea
I was chatting on the phone making plans with a lady
a little bit of company
but my date split QUICK when I opened the door
man I wonder what’s wrong with me

I’m a caveman, I can’t catch a break now
the ladies say I’m so passé 
I’m a caveman, it’s too much to take
I’m ancient history or so they say

The big city’s fine but something’s on my mind
I feel a little incomplete
I miss my old club, for rustling up some grub
and the touch of grass below my feet
I’ve been around longer than all your creation, 
like the rocks and trees and streams
I wanna get back home, where forever I’ll roam
even if it’s only in my dreams

I’m a caveman
I can’t catch a break 
everybody says I’m so passé 
I’m a caveman, it’s too much to take
I’m ancient history or so they say

I’m a caveman, 
must be come kinda mistake
everybody says I’m so passé 
well I’m a - a caveman
It’s too much to take
but I’m gunna get back some day

Caveman - The Eclectic Collective

Hey… Hope all is well wherever you are. Happy Winter Solstice, Holidays, or whatever you may be up to. Thanks to all those who listened to the song I briefly posted then deleted yesterday. It had to go.  So I did this jam for my friend Joe, who died 8 years ago. Never got to say goodbye. He was always down on his luck, but somehow found something to laugh about. He knew I was a musician, so he'd leave phone messages with him banging on a chair like it was a drum as he laughed his ass off. He called me Wild Man. I basically just played some loud distorted slide on this, doing my own thing… with a ton of feedback. My music often gets loud and angsty when I am working through tough stuff in my life. So this is mostly cathartic noise. I really didn’t want to sing anything as I was pretty grumpy at the time. Feel like I should redo this with more lyrics and less distortion, when I am in a better mood. Thanks for dropping by, Mark

Joe.......

Presenting "Elara" - Photograph - Cross Talk

I have attempted to conveys a sense of being trapped or controlled by the image, hinting at the "foe" without explicitly stating it, building immediate tension.

Using Beats, Percussion Rhythmic Guitar & Vocal Chops I have created the mood for the psychological battle Elara experiences using spoken word and repetitive background vocals to create an evocative  intriguing atmosphere using the Alchemy Cross Talk Pad.


Original Lyrics & Vocals by Heidi-Marie
Every time I look at you I can't think Every time I look at you I can't speak
Your not the person I want to be thinking about

Your not the person I want to be speaking about

Everytime I look at you I can’t think

Just a frame, a moment caught,
A silent story, tightly wrought
It's more than paper, ink, and light
It’s a anchor in the fading night
Holding fast to what once was
Defying time, defying laws
A single click
This photograph, it holds me bound
No other vision can be found
A perfect pause, a timeless plea
This pixel dream, consuming me
Yeah, this photograph, it's all I see
Stealing every thought from me

The world outside keeps spinning fast, But in this frame, we're built to last
I trace the lines, the silent gaze
Lost in these captured, ancient days
I feel the pulse, though time has fled
The living ghost inside my head

This photograph, it holds me bound
No other vision can be found
A perfect pause, a timeless plea
This pixel dream, consuming me
Yeah, this photograph, it's all I see
Stealing every thought from me.

Do I forget the truth of then?
Or just the moment, now and when? This fragile image, stark and clear
Drowns out the whispers, conquers fear. A phantom touch, a whispered name, Feeding this all-consuming flame.
This photograph, it holds me bound
No other vision can be found
A perfect pause, a timeless plea
This pixel dream
consuming me
Yeah, this photograph, it's all I see,
Can't think... can't speak... 
Every time I look at you I can't think  I can't speak
Every time I look at you I can't think  I can't speak
Your not the person I want to be thinking about
Your not the person I want to be speaking about
