FEBRUARY  from WINTER-A SYMPHONIC POEM

Seagull surprised me with this lovely song as a gift for my 70th birthday, featuring his playing on acoustic guitar, and likening our friendship and musical comradery to a "walk in the morning dew".  I was beyond honored:)  Then the thought occurred to him, "what if Ed, Dan, Peter, and David joined me on my walk?"  Peter's words set the stage comparing our friendship (and lasting friendship in general) to fine gold "hewn from so much more than mere common ground"  Ed's gorgeous electric guitar defines the melody, Dan's synths and Clara's vocals add depth and emotion, and I get to decorate an already beautiful production in the left and right channels.  It is now a magnificent 70th birthday gift, enriched by my musical bond and friendship with these fine artists, and one I want to share with you dear listener.  Be blessed as you walk with us "in the morning dew":)

Seagull has also created a lovely video to celebrate our walk together and invite you to join us there: www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDbapIXADdg
Peter's introductory poem:
A tempered bond of ether gold forged from trust in seeming kin
Blenched of ore hewn from so much more than mere common ground
Metallicised, a like of kind that cannot tarnish, ne’er to rust, it’s strength, atomic, set within
And so my grateful thoughts are due, my friend, to you, as one where empathy is ever found
To crystallise a state of mind as if from walks in morning dew as bright new days begin.

I was reading an article recently where Billy Idol was describing his "California Sober" lifestyle and he provided some perfect lyrics for a piece I had written earlier this year.  Thank you Billy Idol!

Why Try And Fight It

Keep Living

The State of Israel was created almost 80 years ago in response to an attempted genocide. We are now watching a genocide of the Palestinian people in real time on our tv screens. This is happening with the collusion of democratic  governments. How did we descend to this?
This acoustic guitar improvisation is by 3 guitars based on '4+ 20'. I had intended to write a protest song about the war, but I cannot find the words. This is inadequate, we should all speak up to condemn this barbarity however small our voices are. 
We "grow weary of the torment, can there be no peace?"

Almost 80

Lyrics :

Many miles around to get to over there
In such hard
Road without end
Happy for you
So Cool  So Lust  So Hot and Fresh in Cars in highway
Road without end
Happy for you
Cars and Joy
Take me to the limit inside your heart
Tell me another forces inside your head

Races for ever Girls at the finish line
Motors and roars
In prizes for you
Prizes for us
Wuaooo

Faces looking for silly cars right now
With good price
Loans without end
Happy for you
Gadget and skin in vary colors 'n' shape on us
Road without end
Looking for It
Cars and Joy
Take me to the limit inside your heart
Tell me another forces inside your head

Highways full of souls
Lost in a Loan
Deception hide in speed
In prizes for you
Prizes for us
Wuaooo

Illusions as we take for a Fast and Furious in there
cheatings throw out for you
Movies and perpetual Lies
Idols in plastic and steel
Stories of people crash inside
Slow our pace just for us
And smile to all of you
Business and money run for It fucking crooks everywhere.
Stop
Fuck...ing cars
At last
Take all your time 
By walk
or in a bus
with comic books
So Cool  So Tough  So free So adrenalized 
Cars and Crash
Take me to the limit inside your heart
Tell me another forces inside your head

Highways full of souls
Lost in a Loan
Deception hide in speed
In prizes for you
Wuaaooo

Collab with Martin Reed

This is a new year —-the outlook is fair
 Start a brand new chapter I killed it last year 
A force to be reckon with ——this much is clear 
Writing futures not histories a real pioneer 
yo ——-it’s IPG1——— I’m still off the chain 
turn up the music ——- this ——-the heat I maintain 

*******for Part 2 ***Freestyle—-not written

OK here we go ——set it off like a boss
I—-Paid the price ——-paid the cost—-there’s —no love loss
Call it what you want ——but ——call it—-pure pleasure 
——skillzzz gained——- from every bar —- every measure 
treasure the moments —the performance—the key
I deliver it right ——-Come on vibe with me 
————it’s an—-emcees delight ——when I lock it down —-
I lock it down tight——-Slamming bars ——like it’s Devine right
authorized to excite—-Sight beyond sight
and I keep it cool ———-like my name was frostbite 

Caught up in the same struggle —-on the daily 
one common interest in mind ——who’s gonna pay me 
——Let’s take some time —-to acknowledge each other
because it’s the same struggle——only change is the weather
different rule —-same game —-we’re all ——in it together
We Position ourselves ——with the things we’ve earned 
And the knowledge ——we’ve collected ——from the lessons learned

my space of existence ———is-in the mix 
Acknowledge—-the persistence ——a hip-hop fix
Real sounds—— real memories—-why resist
so profound ———in harmony ——as I transmit
different vibes —— and melodies —do exist 
But I’m the source—- and the remedy ——you must admit
——worded ——-artistry —as—-I transmit
doing —-what comes naturally——so I just spit

Mysteries Of The Blim Part 3

I am a finger-style guitarist living on the Texas high plains.  At the core of my music is melody that is inspired and informed by my Christian faith, family, friends, and countless influences through the years from the great composers, to jazz, folk, rock, Latin, Celtic, and the many fine musicians I have come to love on the Cloud, some I have been privileged to collaborate with.  Thanks for stopping by to have a listen. Comments are always welcome. Feel free to click on the picture of any track to learn more about it.
