My Dad played this song (recorded by Hank Williams Sr. in 1949) on his harp when I was growing up. Good memories.

This is an extra-special release for two reasons; the song was written for my first granddaughter Lanie about the time this picture was taken(seven years old, she's now nineteen), and this marks my first collaboration with gifted pianist Debra Buesking.  When I approached her with this song, she immediately loved it and the ideas came very quickly to her.  It was emotionally moving to hear her additions giving the song a sense of completion I felt it lacked.  Thank you my friend for sharing your abundant talent that graces this song.  You can hear more of Debra's fine playing and original arrangements:  soundcloud.com/debra_buesking

We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who took part in this project:
Ben Cummings on trumpet and flugelhorn
Adham Farid for mastering the song
Meryam S. for her Jibril's horse act within the song
Karima BEN CHEIKH for her song's illustration

Jibril et son cheval / Jibril and his horse

Jibril avait un cheval / Jibril had a horse
Impressionant le cheval / How impressive his horse was!
Il le tenait / He held onto it

Au bout d’une ficelle / On the end of a string
Et flottant dans les airs / And floating in the air
Il le connaît / He knows him well

Et quand tu es fatigué / And whenever you're tired
Le cheval tu le connais / You find your horse
Dessus tu vas t’installer / And settle down for a ride

Et tu voudrais avancer / And you would like to move on
Ça suffit tu es fatigué / You have enough and you’re tired 
Tu le connais…You know him well... 

Tu es l’enfant c’est toi le grand / You're the child, yet the grown-up one
Nous on n’est pas intelligent / We're not the smart ones
Longtemps qu’on a plus 3 ans / Long time since we were 3 years old


Un ballon c’est tout rond / A balloon is all round
Le cheval n’est pas rond / The horse isn’t round
Ça tu le sais / You know that very well

Et pourtant dans les airs / Yet in the air
Le cheval a tout l’air / The horse seems like
De s’envoler / Is flying away

Et tu voudrais avancer / And you would like to move on
Ça suffit tu es fatigué / You have enough and you are tired
Le cheval tu le connais / You know your horse well

Dessus tu vas t’installer / On your horse you are seating
Et tu es prêt à y aller / And you are ready to go
Tu le connais…You know him so well... 

Tu es l’enfant c’est toi le grand / You're the child, yet the grown-up one
Nous on n’est pas intelligent / We're not the smart ones
Et s’il n’avance pas / And if he doesn’t move forward
C’est qu’il ne le veut pas / It’s cause he doesn’t want to

Qu’il préfère voler…He prefers to fly…

Jibril Et Son Cheval

An instrumental hard rock track making extensive use of odd drum signatures, because they are sexy. 
I hope you´ll share my perception.

Unbalanced Love Affair

Unbalanced

It is wonderful when a previously released song has enough potential energy to be released as a new song in a different genre.  So it is with this song first inspired by Thommo last spring in a collaboration with him and Ren Faye called "Dream Catching".  I liked the initial soundscape and guitar parts enough that I wanted to do a separate acoustic release under a different title.  Debra Buesking's definitive artistry entered the picture when we were teasing ideas for another collaboration.  I submitted this to her, she loved it, and now graces it with her superb playing, actually re-inventing the song.  More of her fine music can be heard @debra_buesking 
Imagine a windswept veranda. a couple dancing to distant thunder, passions building and breaking as the storm approaches.  The original is much different, more Celtic and ethereal and can be heard here as well as Thommo's other amazing productions: soundcloud.com/thommo_tunes/dream-catching-feat-david-dunham-and-ren-faye

Time Far Away

Marking my third collaboration with gifted pianist Debra Buesking, what an honor and treat to have her add her piano magic to a tune I wrote some 25 years ago on a warm summer evening in Colorado.  The Godin guitar seemed the perfect voice to express the warmth and intimacy of a summer evening reverie, and Debra's piano the perfect accompaniment, like two friends enjoying a glass of wine.  Hear more of Debra's fine compositions and arrangements @debra_buesking.

One Summer Night, A Reverie, with Debra Buesking, piano

I know your tired - but hey dude I am too –I'm  tired of trying to resurrect – the good in you
The good in me – has taken a back seat – and I just watch you flounder around – wondering when you'll come around 
And you walk – down this lonely road – trying to find a place you can stand still find a place you can call your home 
The real in us – We watch it dissipate – and as our life is fading away we find peace in our solitude 
But hey we’ll keep on moving with thoughts that are soothing In hopes it will get us through our day…
There’s something I been meaning to say!
Why’d the fuck you let her get away
Could’ve saved yourself from all this god damn pain
So much disease can’t figure out the strain – I'd like to hold you down and rub away the stain
2nd verse
I know your tired – But Hey dude I am too – I'm tired of trying to have your back – when you never pull through
The good in me – has taken a back seat –And I know your about to erupt – when did your soul become so corrupt
And you walk – down this lonely road – trying to find a place you could stand still find a place you can call your home – 
The good in us – we’re sick of all these games – but it’s something we’ve grown so used to there won’t be any breakthroughs 
hey we’ll keep on moving with thoughts that are soothing In hopes it will get us through our day…
There’s something I been meaning to say!
Why’d the fuck you let her walk away
Could’ve saved yourself from all this god damn pain
So much disease can’t figure out the strain – I'd like to hold you down and rub away that stain
I’m so fucking tired – but hey dude so are you – I'm tired of trying to find the words – when they all cut through - yeah!!!!

The Stain.....

Tatara (Spleen version) from Tribute to Joe Hisaishi

The moon's orbit around earth is elliptical, with one side closer to earth than the other. As a result, the distance between the moon and earth varies throughout the month and the year. The point on the moon's orbit closest to earth is called the perigee and the point farthest away is the apogee.  This piece was constructed to give a musical sense of this spacial reality by going from apogee to perigee and then back to apogee.

Apogee and Perigee

What a privilege to work with Debra Buesking again on Scott Richard's smooth and slightly funky synth track.  Actually, I kind of invited myself to the party when Debra queried me about the keyboard part she had for Scott's original track titled "Ennui".  I became very engaged with her playing to the very chill synth track and could hear some acoustic guitar accents giving a little edge to the piece.  Debra's versatile playing defines the direction of the song front to back, and I'm along for the ride--but what a ride:)  Check out Scott's Cloud at soundcloud.com/the_eyes_of_heisenberg,  and Debra's extraordinary playing @debra_buesking.

Kaleidoscope (Collaboration with Debra Buesking, Scott Richards)

Long before September 11, 2001, there was a September 11, 1950; the birthdate of my wife Terry.  This song started out as a very personal musical portrait of her.  Debra became interested in the track after I sent it to her for collaborative consideration.  The result is something very special for the both of us and we hope you too.  In my playing, I address the intimate side of the song and day. In Debra's playing, she addresses the now much larger meaning of the day for our nation and the world. Ultimately I think what we are saying is that 9/11 is profoundly personal. Each of us, if were old enough to remember, know where we were, what we were doing the day the attacks occurred. The attacks also shook the world, world markets, world travel, and any and all sense of security.   Profound sorrow was draped over our country and any nation that called us friend.  "Stay With Me" is another way of saying "hold me close", "we need each other", and as the track picture suggests "forget me not".    A big "thank you" to Debra for lavishing her talent on this very personal song.    More of her beautiful music can be heard @debra_buesking.

I first heard this tune from the great Tony Rice (bluegrass flat picker). I immediately wanted to pick it and I immediately realized that I was no
Tony and just could not keep up with him.  I still love this tune and had to slow it way down and adapt.   Just picking and singing.

Written by two Frenchmen, Pierre Delanoe (lyrics) and Gilbert Becaud (music) this now famous Everly Brothers recording from 1960 was originally recorded in French as “Je t’appartiens” by Gilbert Becaud. Nat and Craig feed on classic vocal harmonies and naturally greatly admire what the Everlys did with this beautiful love song. We cover this in a way that fairly closely follows the Everly approach.

Lyrics
I bless the day I found you
I want to stay around you
And so I beg you
Let it be me
Don't take this Heaven from one
If you must cling to someone
Now and forever
Let it be me
Each time we meet, love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
What would life be?
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always
Let it be me
Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
What would life be?
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always
Let it be me

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.
