Pushing the Needle to the Red

Cover Image: detail from painting by Benjamin Russell, AFRICAN SUNSET ON MOUNT ROYAL. 

Back in the early 80s, Elyce and I saw a special on World Vision’s work in Africa. We were impressed while horrified by the people’s suffering. What made the largest impact though was a particular doctor who explained he couldn’t help everyone. He had to choose between the mothers who had enough will to live and care for their children, and those who were too far gone and had given up.

Doctor Avery was getting burned out and said he didn’t know how much longer he could go on.

We were moved to write a song, "Help Dr Avery", but it was never recorded until now. It is on my new album called, SHIKASTA SUITE. You can download and share this song here for free but we have pledged to donate ALL SALES from this song to World Vision to help in their ongoing work.

HELP DR AVERY  is a song on the new album, SHIKASTA SUITE, available wherever you download or stream your music including:

HELP DR AVERY  - song by Elyce & Benjamin Russell
copyright © The Clear Blue Enterprise (socan)

Help, help, help Dr. Avery

If you can make the war, then you can pay the price
If you can sell the bombs, then you can buy the rice

All the new discoveries, all the new perfumes
All the latest hit songs, it's time for different tunes

Help Dr. Avery now

The world is getting smaller, we're next door neighbours
It's just another dollar, but it might save us

Help Dr. Avery, it's your decision
Help Dr. Avery - he says he can't go on

Help Dr. Avery now

Shikasta Suite

Help Dr Avery

original song

in a daydream
come across that floor you'd do it all
and you'd stay for some more
like yesterday
if just for a moment call me like before
i'd trade it all
and forget anymore
that yesterday's gone
careful where you're dancin'
accidents happen
 i've seen hearts get broke that way
watch your step with the skeletons
all the victims of your accidents
let my bones be next ok
just to myself now
talk about what for 
i spill it all till the phantoms get bored 
of yesterdays
baby goes lightly off to someones war
and that was all
to forget anymore
she says yesterday's gone

***

Ah a frescura na face de não cumprir um dever!
Faltar é positivamente estar no campo!
Que refúgio o não se poder ter confiança em nós!
Respiro melhor agora que passaram as horas dos encontros.
Faltei a todos, com uma deliberação do desleixo,
Fiquei esperando a vontade de ir para lá, que eu saberia que não vinha.
Sou livre, contra a sociedade organizada e vestida.
Estou nu, e mergulho na água da minha imaginação.
É tarde para eu estar em qualquer dos dois pontos onde estaria à mesma hora,
Deliberadamente à mesma hora...
Está bem, ficarei aqui sonhando versos e sorrindo em itálico.
É tão engraçada esta parte assistente da vida!
Até não consigo acender o cigarro seguinte... Se é um gesto,
Fique com os outros, que me esperam, no desencontro que é a vida.

Fernando Pessoa

my contribution to the current Disquiet Junto project
https://disquiet.com/2020/12/10/disquiet-junto-project-0467-toolbox-show-tell/

ancora una volta il 'compositional challenge' del progetto #Disquiet di questa settimana è molto interessante .. se ho capito bene si tratta di 'mostrare' e/o 'raccontare' una pratica musicale venuta significativamente a galla durante questo periodo così particolare .. "Share a tip for making music that you learned during the pandemic" .. be', per quanto mi riguarda, io ho 'scoperto' una specie di 'guida assistita' nel suonare le tastiere .. ho sempre amato i 'patterns' ripetitivi, su tutti quelli 'really terrific' di Terry Riley .. non essendo però in possesso di tale tecnica esecutiva e compositiva, mi sono spesso 'accontentato' di arpeggi, ostinati o strutture sostanzialmente semplici, a cui ho cercato di dare una qualche pregnanza, o quantomeno una 'voce' personale, ma che con l'andare del tempo sembravano mostrare i loro limiti .. le tastiere di ultima generazione mi sono venute decisamente incontro nel tentativo di superare questa 'impasse', possedendo numerose varianti di arpeggi o 'patterns' .. in questi mesi, quindi, mi sono fatto 'guidare' da queste apparecchiature digitali, come se pilotassi un'automobile dotata di assistenza elettronica .. non ho, credo, esagerato nel loro uso, non mi sono fatto prendere la mano - è il caso di dirlo - e il risultato non è particolarmente distante da una cosa che con un po' di impegno probabilmente sarei riuscito a fare anche senza l'assistente digitale, ma essendo veramente poco dotato di pazienza e disciplina, ho potuto realizzare abbastanza in fretta cose nuove e diverse da quelle che ero solito fare - che è sempre cosa buona e giusta, no? -  senza contare che mi pare proprio di avere imparato roba nuova, non lontana da quella a me già nota, ma comunque nuova ..
