passin by and grabbing this. Who else than Don N to come up with a Pentagle cover, and do it so well?

Written for February 2022 monthly online songwriters meet-up  with 'Drunks In A Midnight Choir'. Prompt was to find one of the many (many, many) 6 word stories available out there on the internet and write a song. I used Apple loops and a midi keyboard to create the melody. (Headphones recommended to appreciate the juicy bass loop 😎) 

Kudos and thank you to Finley Parkinson from Longcroft School in Beverley for the six word story: 'Found her shoes on the roof.' (Read article about the 2019 competition here: https://firststory.org.uk/six-word-story-2019-shortlist-and-winner/)

Found her shoes
Up on the roof
But did she jump 
Or was she pushed?
Found her things
In a neat little pile
And when I asked around no one had seen her in a while

Found her shoes  
But did she jump or was she…
Pushed?

(She really loved those shoes)

They packed her room up
Parcelled it all away
Why she did it
No one ever would say
Glossed it over
Nothing happened that day
And when I asked her mum, she just looked the other way

Found her shoes 
But did she jump or was she…
Pushed?

(‘Cos she really loved those shoes
Man, I miss her and her shoes)

Did she jump, or was she…
Pushed?

North At Defining Moments

Standing on a tiny feeling wave
I asked myself.

What I always wanted
Was real closeness to you,
Every time I tried, I failed.
Every word I should have said to you
Was swallowed up by demons inside,
Was swallowed up inside.
Infinite deepness was beyond my reach,
But the longing was strong,  the Longing was strong,
And the closeness so far
And only these scars remind me of the war I waged with my little ray of hope 
Against myself, against myself, against all darkness.

Standing on a tiny feeling wave
I asked myself.

What I always wanted I let go like a tow rope I was hanging on, 
Unable to move on, so I held on to you. 
There was nothing you could do to help me out of this swamp, 
I kept on trying to drown myself again and again and again. 
So the days went by and you had enough of this unhappy man. 

Standing on a tiny feeling wave

I had no words, you had patience no more
Had no words, you had patience no more 
And I would have really liked to find out what closeness is for.

Standing on a tiny feeling wave
I asked myself.

Outspace

Outspace by Carlos Vivanco & Jason Mowry

Inspired by the use of silence as a powerful musical tool used by Nadir. I took some scary musical risks at 2.5 minutes. Trying to be comfortable playing some uncomfortable notes that are normally harmonically musical enemies of each other.

I have always been a big fan of the Brit Jazz/Folk/Trad/Pop band Pentangle. I had this tune running through my head the other day so I recorded a slow strolling version of it (theirs was in a jauntier 5/4 time – bloody musicians!)  That’s about it!

Unfortunately, more and more people of music are leaving us. Fortunately, great music remains. Tina Turner passed away a few days ago and that's what prompted me to do this cover.

I invited Per (PJ Project) to collaboration. He accepted the invitation (thanks Per!) and added another guitar, bas, drums and mixed it all up. Here's what came out of it. This is placed for now on my YT channel.
