Beautiful Lies

Here's some chilled jazz for the July summer heat - unless of course you're in the Southern Hemisphere and are experiencing winter.  Either way, chilled.   So pleased again to be recording with the wonderful vocals of Irina and flute of Santi-Caballero.    Two of my favorite musicians here on SoundCloud.  Listen to the purity and ease of Irina's vocal lines and phrases, matching Sam's delicate flute.  Such a pretty trio setting to be with them:)

Hidden Meaning - Irina / Sam Mendez / Jamie Rhind

It always amazes me how a collaboration can change the whole feeling of a song. Such is the case when Cloud artist Devin Locke reached out to me to collaborate.  I sent him a tune I had been working on, but would not necessarily stand on it's own.  What he did with his fine playing, getting inside the basic melody, bringing out the possibilities, reminded me of the playing of Django Reinhardt and helped me hear the song in a whole new light.  For more of Devin's fine playing check out  soundcloud.com/devin-locke.  To hear a wonderful vocal version of this song, check out: @myckael-marcovic/si-django-avait-joue

Birdwatching 

Point your eyes up to the trees and keep your ears wide open
Stand right next to me and keep your mouth closed
Stay light on your feet and hear the whip a whip a whistle
Stand right next to me and keep your mouth closed!

I promise you it’s worth your time  and now the part that matters
Is the language of the flying things, the words you can’t imagine
Telling stories from the tops of trees 
Of feathers web and worms and swarming bees!      
When we go birdwatching
            
Your binoculars are key keep them aimed up at the trees
listen carefully and keep your mouth closed!
It’s difficult at first It could be bells or wood or metal
As you open up your ears I know you heart will follow

Oh, little one, it’s worth your time and now it’s all that matters
Is the language of the flying things, the words you can’t imagine
Telling stories from the tops of trees 
And riding currents on the breeze
When we go birdwatching

Cackle caw whip and chatter           
Chip and chirrup crow and clatter
Chitter clack rush and titter             
Pip and thrill hoot and twitter
Tweet and clang flutter flap                
Chirp and hum, flicker, quack 
Whoop whoop whoop,    
Trum trum trum trum trumpet!!!

And from far off chickadee I hear a chirp and then a sizzle
I’ll stand right next to you and keep my mouth closed
We’ll listen and resist the urge to join in with a whistle
Looking up into the trees, we’ll feel the wind blow

I promise when you grow up you’ll remember understanding
The language of the flying things, you won’t have to imagine   
The stories from the tops of trees 
The questions answered only by the breeze
When we went birdwatching 

They sang Aliyah
They sang Aliyah

Birdwatching -  with Jonathan Beckenstein

This song is based on an original idea by Jeff Buckley and Liz Fraser. Sadly it was never finished or properly recorded in his lifetime. Bethany and I thought that the song deserved to be completed and so we set out to do just that.

The full band version of this song can be found on Bethany's SC profile:

https://soundcloud.com/bethanygraceuk/all-flowers-in-time-bend-towards-the-sun

This version is the Acoustic Mix.

There were so many great performances from the musicians involved that we really thought it would be great to really hear the quieter instruments in their own setting. Not only does it give yet another take on the song but it also allows you to really hear the beautiful vocals once again.

We hope you enjoy it as much as we did making it.

This track with a double title : "Uygurs - Total Darkness" takes us to the depths of the dark side and the suffering to get in, as well as to get out of it ... 
It's easier to slide towards the dark side, than to advance towards the light which always requires more effort :-) Today it's THEM, tomorrow it might be YOU! 
There are some doors you should never cross.
No assistance to people in danger! If you don't say a word, consent!
Closing your eyes and not remembering past mistakes is never good, but know that those who persecute, kill, rape, lock up, sterilize, gass, etc....
They will one day find the strength of democracies that will wake up and put a stop, once again, to barbarians, whoever they are.

Ce morceau au double titre : "Uygurs - Total Darkness" nous emmène au plus profond du côté obscur et de la souffrance pour y entrer, comme pour en sortir ...
Il est plus facile de glisser vers le côté obscur, que d'avancer vers la lumière qui demande toujours plus d'efforts :-) Aujourd'hui c'est eux, demain ce sera peut-être vous !
Il y a des portes qu'il ne faut jamais franchir.
Aucune assistance aux personnes en danger ! Si vous ne dites pas un mot, consentez !
Fermer les yeux et ne pas se souvenir des erreurs passées n'est jamais bon, mais sachez que ceux qui persécutent, tuent, violent, enferment, stérilisent, gazent, etc...
Ils trouveront un jour la force des démocraties qui se réveilleront et mettront un terme, une fois de plus, aux barbares, quels qu'ils soient.

Uygurs - Total Darkness

J’AI UNE MÈRE VEILLEUSE              
ELLE VEILLE AU GRAIN SUR SON BAMBIN
ET MET AU POINT DES STRATAGÈMES

DU HAUT DE BETELGEUSE
ET PAS BESOIN DE CHERCHER LOIN
POUR BOIRE AU SEIN QUE J’AIME

ET C’EST PAREIL DEPUIS TOUJOURS 
DEPUIS LE JOUR OÙ J’AI VU LE JOUR

QUAND LA VIE TÉNÉBREUSE
SE FAIT PARFOIS CHEMIN DE CROIX
ET QUE J’EN VOIS PAS LE BOUT DE MES PEINES

ALORS MA MÈRE VEILLEUSE
LUIT DANS LA NUIT BERCE MON LIT
ET MES ENNUIS  ET ME DIT PAR ICI

ET C’EST PAREIL DEPUIS TOUJOURS 
DEPUIS LE JOUR OÙ J’AI VU LE JOUR

J’AI UNE MÈRE VEILLEUSE
ELLE VEILLE AU MIEUX MÊME MIEUX QUE DIEU
SUR SON MORVEUX DEVENU VIEUX

ET C’EST PAREIL DEPUIS TOUJOURS 
DEPUIS LE JOUR OÙ J’AI VU LE JOUR

MÈRE (Lyrics)

This tune came out of a wonderful convergence (happy accident); my collaboration with @devin-locke on "Theme and Variations" and a renewed interest in the painting of Bob Ross. One of the variations I became so taken with, I wanted to develop it into a full track using the original steel string voice of the collaboration then adding nylon string to enlarge the melody line.  "Happy Accidents" was a favorite saying of Bob Ross as he would go about his painting on Public Television.  I saw how it applied to me in how I have composed guitar music over the years;  the unexpected note or chord I first thought a mistake became a turning point for a phrase or melody line.  Some would call it "serendipity", for Bob Ross it was a "happy accident".  If you listen closely toward the beginning, you can hear my granddaughter Lily in the background, a bit of a cameo and very much a happy accident:)

An oldie I like. Smooth chill jazzy vibe. Let's Fly.
BTW : the title Stoned Dreams comes from a Baudelaire poem : conceive me as a dream of stone.

A while back fine guitarist @devin-locke inspired me to revisit some of the early Miles Davis' recordings which are brilliant jazz masterpieces.  I wanted to try my hand at the style and have Devin join me if he felt so inclined.  He hasn't yet, but may do so in the future:) Anyway, a little tribute to a master...

Miles And Miles To Go

Written for my 2nd granddaughter who turned 20 last November, she is pictured here as a three year old about the time the song was first written.  It was a stylistic breakthrough for me finding its birth on a Mexican classical guitar I found at a pawn shop and bought at a bargain because it needed repair.  Shortly after the glue dried, I started playing it and the opening phrases of the song just poured out and I thought "that sounds like my Grace".  So here it is on the Godin, a song for Grace and a prayer for you.

Grace To You

Angels play a huge role throughout the Biblical narrative.  They also play a role in our lives as well, probably much more than we realize...May Lemke is one such angel. I read about her years ago and her rescuing of a hopelessly disabled, premature baby she would adopt and name Leslie in an article titled "The Miracle of May Lemke's Love".  Here is a brief video of that angel telling her story.  www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWtZA-ZmOAM&list=PLKj3m-0NiJ6VpEOx8YE1dhsRg0umHaQ8N&index=1  Debra Buesking gives the song yet another dimension of ambience and power in our collaboration: soundcloud.com/david-dunhamuser589535203/on-the-wings-of-angels-second-flight-with-debra-buesking-piano

On Angels' Wings (In Memory of May Lemke)

With all that's going on, sometimes the heart just wants to flee to a place of innocence. Maybe we could meet there...

Return To Innocence

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.
