die with you

it's only rock and roll dust

Cherry Bomb

I see your halo start changing its hue in this lighting
Its pure white’s now tainted with blue and red 
and some violet
I was like you, you seem to remind me
I was like you, you seem to remind me of someone that
I was before, I was before the Blues

I see the green ones waiting in line for their prizes
And all the mean reds they’re Holly-come-lightly’s and frightened
I was like you, you seem to remind me
I was like you, you seem to remind me of someone that
I was before, I was before 
I was before, I was before the Blues

Paint violet with red and blue when you got nothing left to lose
Paint violet with blue and red. It’s every color in your head.
Paint violet with red and blue when you got nothing left to lose
Paint violet with blue and red. It’s every color in your head.

Paint violet with red and blue when you got nothing left to lose
Paint violet with blue and red. It’s every color in your head.
Paint violet with red and blue when you got nothing left to lose
Paint violet with blues and reds. It’s every color in your head.

Now I I was kind of like you, you seem to remind me of someone I was before
But I can’t be that color anymore

Mystery School Assembly

A song I'd messed with for some years, recorded around 2006 in Brooklyn. Vibes were overdubbed in Philadelphia. Re-titled "A Walk In Central Park" for the session, it put us all in a good state of mind. 

I was intimidated as hell. These were great players. The places they took this song was inspiring. This was one of six takes, I forget which. I do remember the piano wasn't tuned. It made no difference.

George Burton - Piano
Rashaan Carter - Double Bass
David Stoller - Kit
Tony Micelli - Vibes

Writer/Producer: Erik Rex
Engineer: David Stoller
Recorded at The Samurai Hotel (at the original Dean St. location)

Bootleg

The Trip - Dandelion - Silver Demo

This was the last song I wrote for Dandelion. It was about deciding to leave the band. It was the hardest decision of my life, but in the end, we're all happy and healthy and here. now. Other paths would have likely had very different results, at least for me.
Just me on this one.
