Love those high piano notes, tripping endlessly along!  A very enjoyable piece from you and the Nick of Spades, Thom :)

just heard this over on Nick's Cloud...will be my pleasure to listen again :)

as i said on Nick's side...that lower tone just sets the tone for the entire piece..and that upper melody is so lovely...i love how you play :)

it feels very much like you two are having a conversation throughout this piece...your piano is fantastic..and Nicks' guitars are wonderful as well!

You Can't Take It With You (by Paul Kelly)

In the play "El cóndor pasa", Frank is a character born in an indigenous family, but with blonde hair like the foreigners that exploit him and his peers, a detail that deeply troubles him. In some way, he represents the people of my country, all of us descendants of colonizers and colonized. A shared history of suffering, that's what connect us, and yet, we keep finding ways to discriminate, segregate, despise, humiliate, ignore, kill, and hate on each other.

†ॐ

Composición basada en el "Yaraví de Frank (Pobre alma prisionera)" perteneciente a la zarzuela "El cóndor pasa", del compositor peruano, Daniel Alomía Robles (1887-1940).

Variación sobre un tema de Daniel Alomía Robles

(ever too late to shine )    



Now she lives among the stars
                                          
and the night is too dark without her
         
all the light from then till now
                                          
hasn’t found its way back to her

*



I had no heart to hear

all the bells that call on Sunday

just like a waterfall

they’ll stop falling someday

*


refrain:

       
Is it ever too late to shine

ever too late to shine
         
my love


     
Is it ever too late to shine
                      
ever too late to find
      
my love

*


I see her in a crowd 

I see her in the mirror

Her face is like a shroud

as my own grows dimmer 

*


If you find yourself a star

don't lose it in the wishin' 

you're still while it moves far

far beyond your vision

*

... stoi tam co noc,
stoi i moknie, 
choć wbijam w ciemność wzrok mój
stojąc w ciemnym oknie 

niepokojący blask,
wśród kropel deszczu lśni
nie mogę nadal zasnąć 
bo nie wiem, czy to ty ... 

​czy człowiek w deszczu to ty ?
czy człowiek w deszczu to ja ? 
po co pytam jak wiem ? 
i czemu znika za dnia ...

Whispers

Man in the rain

This time around, I suggested to Nick that we try something different.  I wanted to take my song “The Illusion of Vision” and deconstruct it; keeping only the rock/blues bits and remove the orchestration.  Nick, as always, was agreeable and looked forward to what I would come up with.  Sounded simple enough… until I realized that process left about 1 min., 10 sec. of music.  Undeterred, we set out doing our usual back and forth of ideas and I promised a simple, tasteful piece of music that is not overproduced, as I am want to do.

Right

Poor unsuspecting Nick had no idea of the snipping, splicing, and dicing I was doing to his beautiful guitar work because I changed my idea of how the song should sound. I may have been inspired, what with Halloween in the air or drunk on the taste of the first freedom from work in months… who is to say?  As always (again) ever gracious Nick liked the ”less than understated“ production that I promised and, well here we are. All I can say is that I am very grateful to have found and have the good fortune to be working with Nick and his Electric Spade. 

We present you with collaboration Number 8 – The Illusion
