Battle

This one is essentially a one-take guitar and vocal (well, this is technically take 2), plus a very very very simple slide guitar line and a harmony vocal.

It evolved out of me noodling a riff from an open-E tuning. I almost reverted to a standard, as I was struggling with the bridge, but I'm glad I persevered as I think the open tuning makes the guitar part sound a bit more interesting. I have to admit, the lyrics were a bit of an afterthought, and ended up being a case of choosing words that rhyme with 'bend' and retrofitting the other lines accordingly🤦

LYRICS:

We've been doing this ol' dance
So long, I swear
You say I'm an idiot
I say that's unfair
'Cause if you bend a little
I'll meet you halfway there

I’ve been pulling at this thread
And so have you
Baby, we’re unravelling
Like we always do
But if you mend a little
I’ll meet you halfway there

And I don’t even know the truth of it
Just know I hate to be apart
So when you ask me what’s the use of it
I point a finger to my heart

I’m planting out these seeds
On a sunny day
Gonna cover them with earth
Then hope and pray
And if you tend a little
I’ll meet you halfway there

Halfway There

This is an old track, full of emotions, from some years ago, when I experienced a difficult departure in my life.

I just wanted to share it with you as it is still one of my favorite ambient tunes I made. (The guitar is "one take" on this one ;-))

Hope you can enjoy the emotions ;-)

Our profound thanks goes to Jerry Madden for helping us out on the Blues Guitar and Bass..  Such a phenomenal player and great guy!  Thank you for lending us your exquisite talent!!

Lyrics:

I guess this is crazy
ain't just my mind you're getting to..
I know you're lonely, and you know i've been lonely too
Might as well give up on, all reasoning,
persuasion, decision, derived through cohesion
under you...

well, You talk of persuasion!... 
Red hair that whips you to your grave
Eyes that can drown you, turn any man into a slave
Girl you're the devil dressed like an angel
the constant salvation, inveigling my pleasure into pain

Down in the berry fields
working the earth with what you sow
a spell that's on-top of you
well I'm working the plow down to the bone,
begging for rain to ease, persuade and please,
that may appease the comfort inside us all...
