This list is Artist backing tracks that I play lead and improvise over.  This will entail various styles, Metal, Rock, Blues, Acoustic, Cinematic, Dreamy Ethereal, Dramatic, Glorious, Majestic, Epic, Melodic, Wistful, Sorrowful, 80's, Modern, Neo Classical, Atmospheric and anything else I come across.  I have permission from these artist to use and post to SoundCloud and YouTube. The Tracks by the artist are obviously mixed by them and are complete.  The lead, soloing, improvising parts are by me and they are not mixed or edited.  They are Raw in the original recording.  There's are mistakes, notes, possibly out of key or tune even though I check. I hope you enjoy. Please leave a comment good or bad and many thanks for listening \m/

This is a song about the Holy Spirit, inspired by the series "The Chosen". Thanks for your attention, God bless you.

Silent Voice  ft. ALEX ARCADY

In the late 1800s, the word rhapsody was translated into Japanese as "mad music." In Buddhism, "mad" means "funny" or "fantasy." It's thanks to the hard work of translators that Japanese people can understand the meaning of that famous song, Bohemian Rhapsody.

Rhapsody in Osaka（323）

WELL IF YOU HAVE PLAN TO MOTOR WEST
TRAVEL MY WAY THAT’S THE BEST
TAKE THE HIGHWAY GET YOUR KICKS
OUT ON ROUTE 66  

WE SAID IT ONCE WE CAN SAY TWICE
3 BLIND MICE AFTER A FARMER’S WIFE

LET’S CHANGE OUR PLANS I SUGGEST
AND TRAVEL EAST INSTEAD OF WEST
SWITCH THE SUN OF SAN ANTONE
WITH THE DRIZZLE AND MIST OF BRIGHTON  

WE’VE SAID IT ONCE WE CAN SAY IT THRICE
3 BLIND MICE WITH A CARVING KNIFE
ROLL ON THE DICE

THANK YOU BERRY FOR YOUR LICKS
THANK YOU GARY FOR YOUR KICKS
WE’RE ALL KIDS OF THE WIDOW WITH A SHAWL
BEING MATES IS SUCH A BALL  

3 BLIND MICE AND A TAG WITH NO PRICE
DID YOU EVER SEE SUCH A THING IN YOUR LIFE ?

GONE FROM MISSOURI
AVEC MA SOURIS
DESTINATION POURRY DOWNTOWN LE PARADIS 
UN TOUR PAR LA MAIRIE ET CHOPER LE FERRY 
SI ON L’A FAIT BEFORE ON PEUT LE FAIRE ENCORE

3 BLIND MICE ON A GRAIN OF RICE
WHERE YOU AND I TOGETHER ARE ENGRAVED FOR LIFE

THERE’S MANY A ROADS 66
FIND YOUR OWN MAKE YOUR PICK
AS LONG AS THE ROAD HAS NO END
BUT GOOD OLD FRIENDS ARE UP AROUND THE BEND

PEACE AND LOVE AND SUGAR AND SPICE
EVERLASTING CHILDHOOD WITH 3 BLIND MICE

BUT IF YOU HAVE PLAN TO MOTOR WEST
TRAVEL MY WAY THAT’S THE BEST
TAKE THE HIGHWAY GET YOUR KICKS
OUT ON ROUTE 66  

HAIL HAIL ROCK N’ROLL
BEING MATES IS SUCH A BALL
COS THE HIGHER WE GET THE SOFTER WE FALL

SEE HOW THEY RUN
