NOTIFICATION  (Collab LIllithe & Paploviante)

I was inspired by the recent "No Kings" demonstrations when creating this.

Of Kings and Fools

ALEX MARA, Terra Sapiens - El Pianista 

 A composition inspired by the tragic story that happened on the El Pianista hiking trail.🚓🚧🌄

El Pianista

A smooth Latin Vibe, made from scratch ... all by me with VSTs ... trumpet blown with EWI ...
A bit Santana came to my mind, when I was setting the keyboard groove :-) Enjoy my little easy listening exercise !

Latin Vibes

in June 1965 a 21 year old Al Kooper was invited by producer  Tom Wilson to watch a Bob Dylan  recording session...that day he and the musicians( including guitarist Mike Bloomfield who with his skill intimidated Al away from the guitar ) were recording Like a Rolling Stone..somehow  Al Kooper managed to bluff his way onto playing the organ ....It is a well known and great story.. if you dont know it listen to Al  tell it on the YouTube clip below it is  a very entertaining listen the way he conveys it ......

This song contains 2 snippets of his tale but it is best to listen to the whole thing on YouTube.
I wrote this  little mess of a song about that day;  organ included ( but I think I need to turn it up more)....
....here it is warts and all....
....and here's to being  brave enough to find our own Al Kooper moments....

Turn Up The Organ

A long time ago a bunch of players they be playin’
Tom Wilson, he gave Mr. Kooper a chance
All action reaction, so bold, I’m just sayin’
Al put on his big boy musical pants
He had thrown down his axe when he heard Bloomie riffin’
He couldn't compete with those guitaring lines
Saw a Hammond B-3 over there by its lonesome
Moved them keys to the beat, he was one eighth note behind
The sound that he shaped, it made that tune sublime

So turn up the organ
Play it loud
Bring out your inner Al Kooper
Turn up that organ
Make your momma proud
Slide in a melody
Turn up your organ
The moment is now
Extract that inner Al Kooper
And maybe you can make some history

Sometimes your world needs changing
Embellish, embolden its tempered tone
You can turn your common into a classic
Get out of that head and get into the zone
Let's mould it, shake it, sometimes even fake it
The unguarded moment, get closer to fine
Simple, transcendental, intercontinental 
Starts with a word, a note, for me a rhyme
A one in a million, once in a lifetime sign

Turn up the organ
Make it loud
Channel your inner Al Kooper
Turn up that organ
Let's wow the crowd
A 5 chord symphony
Turn up the organ
Now take a bow
Pull off a ballsy Al Kooper
Turn to the music, it's all a mystery 

Once upon a time, young Dylan rhymed 
in studio B back in 65
Once upon a time, Like A Rolling Stone
Made brick by brick and tone by tone
Once upon a time, a new sound got in
From a skinny kid, who let him in?
Oh Al, you're not on the session list
What you doin’ over there? You a guitar player
Not an organist 

Turn up that organ
Make it loud
Channel that inner Al Kooper
Turn up the organ
Make your daddy proud
Refine and remedy
Turn up the organ
Who says it's not allowed?
Be fearless like Al Kooper
Turn on to music, turn up your life
And make some history 

How does it feel?
How does it feel?
How does it feel?





Turn Up The Organ

Original composition by Neno J.
Electric guitar Gibson Les Paul Studio, recorded directly using multi effect Hotone Ampero 100, Guitar Rig 5, November 2025.
This nostalgic blues came to me these days as a reminder of the early sixties, the guitars of Chet Atkins, Peter Green and others without whom I would never play guitar. Thank them!

Retro blues

..... meditative two layer jam, flute first, guitar (keyboard) second .....
Before this track gets lost on my computer, I'm posting it right away.

Traumwelt

After our first collaboration - https://soundcloud.com/markjbennett/set-me-down-that-road-rplanesmjbennett - Rodolfo offered me a challenge in the form of a decades old song (in a folk/pop style, complete with tape hiss) that he was updating with a platform that is closer to R&B and my task was to come up with a new lyric. This original break-up song had an air of a happy ending to it, though initially I chose to write something less optimistic… however it became clear that with the new arrangement my words had to match the original mood. The added bonus to this is that I now have another break-up song lyric available for the future.
Singing a song that had already existed in another form meant that I had to find a very personal interpretation in order to make it truly mine. A huge thanks to Rodolfo for sharing his inspiring music with me.

I don't know what I've done wrong?
I don't know why you have gone?
Though I hope some day,
When I whisper your name,
We'll be together.
But today's too soon.
When I think of you, I dream.
Yet still, I'm a stranger,
Yet still, I'm a stranger in your heart.

Sometimes I feel like a fool.
Never knowing whether you'll,
Give me hope some day,
Still I call your name.
We'll be together.
Is today too soon?
When I think of you, I dream.
No longer a stranger,
No longer a stranger in your heart.

Lyrics:
Too many times
Did i sit here and cry
After  the lies
Can we say our goodbyes
Why are you playin
I'm tired of saying
You took it all
When you walked out on me
You're from the city
I'm from the sticks
You were so pretty
But you made love a bitch
Just go 
Take it all with you
Moonlight 
On the morning dew
I'm so sick and tired 
Of messin around
Of mucking it up
Every time that i'm down
I’m so sick and tired 
Of running away
I must be in love
Won’t you just stay

Lyrics:
Catch me looking up when I feel down
Heart ice cold music too loud 
Said you was wanting something real now
You know that my heart is yours to steal now
Feet are on the edge
Messing with my head
Need something true instead
And I'll be just fine on my own
Head in the clouds but it's ice cold
Feet on the ground where the night go
Say no lies if you say so
Really don't know what you don't know
Head in the clouds but it's ice cold
Feet on the ground where the night go
Saying no lies if you say so
Really don't know what you don't know

++++. PROFILE NOTES ++++

Once a wannabe, not yet a has been.

It had been over a decade since I put together a song,
and for that matter basically walked away from music altogether.
Losing hope that I would ever have the time to put into music again,
I finally gave away my 3rd music studio.
I ran across SoundCloud around 2013,
and thought I might take what few songs I had recorded, 
and lay them to rest there.
And there they languished.

HOWEVER, around 2017 I went back to SoundCloud
and began listening a little more and a little more,
and actively taking a part in visiting the sites
of so many wonderful musicians and beautiful songs.
Also, more and more often I would discover that these artists
were blossoming everywhere around the world,
and most definitely worthy of high praise and compliments.

Then suddenly, these old dead soundtracks right here
began to have a bit of life breathed back into them.
From the kind words that began to come trickling in,
I thought, maybe, someday I might give this music thing a try again.

The thing that finally pushed me into action
was a particular SoundCloud artist…Sander Heerings,
AKA https://soundcloud.com/wane-of-summer
 

Not only was he encouraging,
but he began faithfully responding to a few questions,
then a barrage of them.

The final result seemed to be that after a couple of months,
the Old Grinder now has a 4th studio and, finally, a new song.
I hope there may be many more to come.

Thank you Sander, and to the multitude that have dropped in
to listen to these old songs, 
and most of all, for perking up my spirits.
