241  - Two-For-One
Is Me 22 Years Ago - Age 53
Learning How To Turn 
My Office Desktop Computer 
Into A Recording Studio
I Was A Bit Late To The 21st Century
Home-Recording Explosion That Was "Pro-Tools"
'Pro-Tools' Turned Music From Something In Your Head
Into A Visual Sound Wave 
You Could Learn How to Move Around
So This Me  - Learning To Use #garageband (pro-tools for dummies)
Using #garageband & Working 'Loops' Together 
With My Neil Young Chops ES-330  
What I Remember Most About Creating It 
Was Feeling 'Iffy' About Writing Another Verse
Realizing... I Made A Pun & Gave A Piece Of Advice
'Do I Really Have To Do That A Few More Times?' 
----
Thanks 4 Listening!

I Woke Up Early 
And It Dawned On Me
If I Buy One Now 
I Get One Free
I Headed Out West 
With The Cavalry
Ya Don’t Mess Around 
With Destiny
Don’t Look Back 
When You’re On The Run
Ya Might Just Miss 
A Two For One

A Club Story (feat. Nasty Tha Mc)

Please Enjoy This Acoustic String-Snapper
From 1977 Was One Of The First
And A Hooky-Pop 1-4-5 Chorus
In 1977 The 'New Wave' Thing Meant To Me
Play It As Fast As You Can Sing it
So I Did...
Problem Was I Couldn't Play It 'Out'
Or Really Let Anyone Close To Me Hear It
It Said Too Much 
And Shared The Secrets Of Others
So I Had To Bury It
And I Did
------
It Never Occurred To Me 
To Change The Lyrics
So I Could Sing The Song Publicly
Without Getting Beaten-Up
But I Think I Was Lazy 
And Changing The Words Was Hard Work
----
And Honestly, 
Sometimes Words Just Come To Me
And When They Do... I Kinda Treat Them As Sacred...
Because They Really Do Feel Like Gifts
And Something To Honor
So - This & 'Prettiest Girl @The Funeral'
Were Among The Best Of The Buried Songs
Prettiest Girl Was Dug-Up In 1997 
This Was Unearthed A Couple Years Ago -


JADED ANGEL

Could It Be There’s 
Nothing I’d Rather Try
Than Taking You Away 
And Making Love All Night
All I Ever Think About 
Is Your Sweet Kiss
There’s Only One Trouble Baby 
You’re Still His
Jaded Angel

Could It Be 
I Don't Care About You Anymore
Just Because
I'm Not Knockin' Down Your Door
All I Ever Hear About 
Is What You Miss
There's Nothing I Can Do For You
As Long As Your His
Jaded Angel

I Saw You Together
And I Wanted To Cry
I Get The Feelin'
You'll Never Be My
Jaded Angel

®rgoldman dragbunt music

JADED ANGEL

Warm gravity

The Falsetto Is Strong Here
This Was Written & Recorded In 1969
On A Reel-To-Reel Tape Deck
In The Bedroom I Grew-Up In  
I Was 19 & Driving A Pharmacy Delivery Truck 
Drugstore Truck-Driving Man
Making $ To Move to LA
The Bakery Babe Was A High-School Senior  
Who Worked At A Bakery After School
------
The Lyrics Reference The Unwritten 
Teenager Dating Rules  Back In 1969
You Could Sit On A Bed Together
But Your Feet Had To Be Touching The Floor
No Laying On The Bed With Your Feet-Up
I Believe My Mother Checked On Us... Maybe Once?
She Definitely Knocked Before Opening The Door
------
Big Hugs To The Actual Bakery Babe
We Had Quite The Wild Ride Back In 1969
----

BAKERY BABE

Bakery Babe  
Keeps My Legs Off The Road
Bakery Babe 
Keeps My Mind Off My Load
Yay Hey, Hey, Hey  
All The Truckin’ Drivers Rave
Yay Hey, Hey, Hey 
She’s My Bakery Babe

She’s So Healthy  
She’s A Regular Bonfire
When I’m Drivin’  
She’s On Top Me 
In The Car 
Yay Hey, Hey, Hey 
All The Workin’ People Rave
Yay Hey, Hey, Hey  
She’s My Bakery Babe

Yay  Hey, Hey, Hey  
All The Singin’ People Rave
Yay Hey, Hey, Hey  
She’s My Bakery Babe

Bakery Babe  
Keeps My Feet 
On The Floor
Bakery Babe  
Steals My Shoes 
To Make Sure
Yay Hey, Hey, Hey 
All The Singin’ People Rave
Yay Hey, Hey, Hey 
She’s My Bakery Babe

BAKERY BABE

1977 - Recorded At Home 
On A Reel-To-Reel Tape Deck
Sometimes I Just Wanna Say... I Did That!!
This Is As Good As I Get
It Began With A 'Live' Piano/Vocal Track
And Then Three Overdubs - Which Included
Two More Vocals & A Second Piano
FAQ - Why Did You Whisper The Vocal?
So - In 1977, We Lived In Primitive Times
When It Came To Home Sound-On-Sound Recordings
With Each Addition Of A New Track
The Original Track - In This Case - The Vocal 
Would Diminish - Both In Volume & Quality
The More I Added - The More The Vocal
Would Get Buried Further In The Mix
There's Also 30 Years Of Tape 'Drop-Outs'
And With All That... 
On This 'Pass' At 'Kay Lynn'
The Emotion Seems Audible 
The Piano Is Relatively In Tune
-----
I Didn't Want To Use Kay Lynn's Real Name
Nor Did I Want To Use My "Place-Holder' Name
Kay Lenz - An Actress We Both Had A Crush On
----- 
So, Finally...
I Sing The Bridge An Octave Too High
Which Is A Clear "Tell"
That This Is The 'First Pass' 
At Recording This Song
It's Become A Heartwarming Quirk 
----
This Magical Recording
Is Better In Headphones
-----
The Way The Three-Part Harmony 
Swells In The Chorus
Much Like The Beatles 'Because'
-----
And The D-Chord With An 'A' Bass
Very Brian Wilson
And Finally... A Five-Note Cello Line!
Played On Piano 
The Younger Of My Sons Is A Cello Wizzard
I'm Hoping He Hears This One...
The Older Son Majored In 'Bass' At College 
I'm Pretty Sure He'll Like This One
Because When We (Kay Lynn & I) 
All Grew-Up
My Son Was A Math Tutor 
For Kay Lynn's Daughter
And Apparently A Good One...
------
And Finally,
Some Goldman Fans Will Hear Echoes Of 1974's 'Sleepyhead' 
And Others... May Hear Harbingers Of 
1978's 'Desdemona's 'Alright' Chorus
Lineage Is Important - It Adds Context
-------
Finally - In The Early 70s 
I Listened To A Lot Of Ry Cooder
And He Kind Of Introduced Me To 
What Would Become Called 'Americana'
And Specifally Stephen Foster Type Songs
And There Was Always Something 
Charmingly Awkward & With Simple & Direct Phrasings
Which Sounds Like I'm Describing 'Kay Lynn'
So It's My Stephen Foster Song!
-----
Stay Strong - Living With A Madman, Is Maddening






KAY LYNN

I Took You In 
When I Was Lonely  
Kay Lynn, Kay Lynn
Now I Have To Let You Go 
Your Own Way
Kay Lynn, Kay Lynn 
Lowlights – Highlights  
And All Those Good Nights
Lowlights – Highlights 
And All Those Good Nights

And When I Call You 
Will We Cry? 
Kay Lynn, Kay Lynn
All The Tears We Thought 
That We Had Passed By 
Kay Lynn, Kay Lynn
Lowlights – Highlights  
And All Those Good Nights
Lowlights – Highlights  
And All Those Good Nights

And Like The Falling Snow
It’s Down To Earth We Go

Love Never Worries 
It Just Comes & Goes  
Kay Lynn, Kay Lynn
Leaving Us To Deal With 
All Our Sorrows 
Kay Lynn, Kay Lynn
Lowlights – Highlights  
And All Those Good Nights 
Lowlights – Highlights  
And All Those Good Nights

KAY LYNN

Jan '69 - I'd Returned To My Small Mid-Western College
Only To Gather My Belongings & Say Goodbyes  
I Was Seriously Lucky To Be College Pals
With A Kid Who'd Grow-Up To Become 
A Great American Fiddle Player Named, Evan Stover
During My Brief Stay At Beloit College
When I'd Write A New Song 
I'd Play It For Evan & Tape His 'Goosebump' Fiddle Parts  
That's What Happened Here
----
The Song's "Relationship" Was Mostly In My Head 
And Consisted Of A Couple Of Awkard Overnights   
-------
(Alright - After The First Hit Of Sour Gum)
From The Opening On... 
I'm Noticing How The Guitar Figure Drives The Song
A La Paul Simon - I Never Give Him Much Love
But He Was A Huge Influence
His Casual Confessional Lyric & Vocal Style
Um, Influenced Mine
----
Also - This Has It's Own Gentleness
And Reads Like The Poetry 
Of An Almost 19 Year-Old 

THE SOONER, THE LATER

Me & All My Hair 
I Ache Tonight
She & All Her Hair 
Kinda Sleeping
Aching I Suppose 
Though I Don’t 
Really Know
She Would Have 
Sooner Or Later

Walk Along The Leaves 
They Wept Once Too
Yes & They Believe 
What They’re Told
I Left Her 
I Suppose
And A Letter 
For The Clothes
I Would Have 
Sooner Or Later

Take It With A Walk 
Or Take It Straight
Leave It In The Woods 
By The Pump
I Can’t Hear 
Her Laugh 
And The Only Thing 
I Have Is
We Would Have 
Sooner Or Later

®rgoldman dragbunt music

THE SOONER, THE LATER

This From The Media-Closet On Sweetzer Ave
West Hollywood In 1989
Recorded On A 4-Track Cassette 
----
This Is The Type Of Song 
That Makes Me Realize...
Unbeknownst To Me
I Kept A Diary 
My Whole Life 
Beginning At Age 14 &
Trailing-Off Now In My Mid-70s
------
This Song Really Feels Like An Odd Diary Entry
Each Verse Finishes 
With An Unexpected Admission
I Can't Cry About Sad Things  
*However* I Can Cry At The Drop Of A Jeter
About Things I Love

LONELY

And Once Upon A Moon-Lit Night 
The Perverts Were Parading
Though She Loved His Overbite
They Were Only Dating
And I Never Know Why
I Never Can Cry
When I Get 
Lonely

"Stop you Fool
You've Gone Too Far"
She Said To The Boyfriend
Then He Started-Up The Car
Annoying Her To No End
Ah - Lonely
Ah - Lonely
And I Never Know Why
I Never Can Cry
When I Get 
Lonely

It's Just The Kind 
Of Ugliness
That Makes You Want 
More Of It
The Neighbor's Wife
Is Getting Dressed
And You Begin
To Covet
I Never Know Why
I Never Can Cry 
When I Get 
Lonely

LONELY

Lonely Boy
Alone On A Monday Night
Lonely Boy
Alone On A Monday Night
Shadows Breaking 
The Stars Are Taken 
Moonbeams Coming Down
Time To Bring That Bottle Down
Lonely Boy
Alone On A Monday Night
Lonely Boy
Alone On A Monday Night

Lonely Boy
Alone On A Monday Night
Lonely Boy
Alone On A Monday Night
Shadows Breaking 
The Stars Are Taken 
Moonbeams Coming Down
Time To Bring That Bottle Down

Cheers To;
Paul Simon's Mad Finger-Picking In 'Anji' & Later, "The Boxer" 
Were Both Informative & Inspirational
-----
This Was The Fall Of My Senior Year In High School
I Was Only Concerned With Passing English 
And My Teacher Was A Troubled Old-Bird Named Annie Koff
Who Loved The Sound Of Her Own Voice
And Had A Mean Streak
I Bring-Up My HS English Teacher Because
I Handed This In To MIss Koff For Extra-Credit
And A Few Days Later 
She Handed It Back To Me 
Graded! - 78! Needs Work  
But Even That 78 Helped Some
I Just To Beat 64
I'd Kept Both Hand-Written Song-Submissions 
(This One & A Song About Myles Standish 
'What To Do About John?')
Because They Had Annie's Personal Comments
And She Was A 'Character' On Her Good Days
And Mean As Fuck 
All The The Rest Of The Time
----
I Think '67 Was Tom Seaver's Rookie Season With The Mets
----
 
Rob Seidman Is A Fabulous Part Of This One
He Sings  A Very Art Garfunkle-Type Back-Uo Part
Which Is To Say 'Early 60s Bleeker St. Sound'
Earnest - Robbie Really Commits
And Goes Along With My Bronx British Accent
I Hear Rob Clear His Voice On Mic
During My Opening Lines  
Cheers To The Late-Great

THE MAIDEN VOYAGE OF MADAME SEIVERS

(A) Seaman Wished 'Good-Sailing' 
Upon His Madame’s Ship
Fair-Winds Were Prevailing 
For His Madame’s Trip
And The Vessel Flew A Sanguine Sail
And The Air Was Drenched With Bismarck Thoughts
Of Silver Sins In Foreign Ports

Relentless Winds Were Blowing 
Despite An Undertow
A Dream That Kept Her Going
But Never On The Go
She Faltered Only For A Moment
As We All Do Sometimes
But The Loss Was Gained In Madame’s Mind

Hoping Groping Waters 
Unchained The Madame’s Ship
And Love Had Come To Mean The End
Of Madame’s Maiden Trip
Come, Come Dark World & Praise This Trip
A Run Is But A Hastened Skip
Leave Us Go To Build A Ship

My Good Friend & 
Often Musical Collaborator... Jim Dean
Produced The Original Recording Here;
https://soundcloud.com/dragbunt/not-supposed-to-die-92-m
And In Doing So 
Helped A Lot On The Music End 
Of This One
Thanks, Bub...
---
I Believe I Sing This One Like A Drunk Ray Davies
------
In 1989, My Wife & I Lived In West Hollywood
Across The Street From Rebecca Schaeffer
An Actress Who Was Stalked & Murdered
I Was Among The First On The Scene 
---
This Song Happened Out Of Nowhere
Several Months Later  
The Experience Was Not Something 
That Felt Helpful To Share Publicly 
And To Me - Writing A Song About It 
Felt Like I Was Capitalizing 
On My Accidental Proximity
To A Dark Moment 
In The History Of Hollywood

----
Anyway - The Lyrics - The First Verse Is Cinematic
But Completely Untrue - However - Her Stalker/Killer
Did See Her In Our Local Laundramat
And Was Apparently Laying Low 
In A West Hollywood Hardware Store 
Before Heading Back To Arizona Where He Was Caught
So This Song Is "Based-On" A True Story
---------


NOT SUPPOSED TO DIE

Through The Window 
We See Sky Of Blue
In The Bedroom 
There’s A Knife In View
On The Floor 
Beside A Woman Who 
Was Not Supposed To Die

As He Passes People 
In The Street
He Wonders If It All 
Was Meant To Be
He’s The Only One 
Who Knows That She 
Was Not Supposed To Die

She Smiled At Him 
In The Laundramat
Then She Acted 
Like A Spoiled Brat
Now She’s Just  
Another Woman That 
Was Not Supposed To Die 

®rgoldman & jdean dragbunt music

NOT SUPPOSED TO DIE

Thanks For Listening
I've Been Writing & Recording Songs 
Since Age 14 In 1964   
In Order To Remember Them
I Had To Record Them 
By The Late '70s, I Realized 
I Had To Be My Own Favorite Artist  
And Keep Track Of The Songs I'd Written 
Who Knew They'd Keep Me Company In My Old Age?
This Is A 'Musical Diary' 
Of My Life For The Last 60 Years
By Clicking "Playlists" 
You Can Follow My 'Progressions'
By The Decades
