Love My Baby

Cast of Characters:
cgmaness-- @user-419254289-15129531 – Chris – acoustic guitar, bass, acoustic slide guitar, drums, vocals, subtle harmonies  during intro verses, lyrics, mix, production, and composition
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –-mandolin, vocal harmony

This is a song that I wrote and shared with Josh last spring. We worked on it for several months. Originally, it was just acoustic guitar and some vocals. To that, Josh added some mandolin, thinking it would stay that way. However, I ruminated on the initial raw version, surprising Josh by adding the rhythm section and better recordings of my parts after the fact. Josh came up with the high harmony towards the end, which blew me away and was the catalyst for a vision to flesh this idea out as best we could. We always have a lot of fun playing together as our tastes and references are very much aligned. We have been making music together almost since we both joined SoundCloud and found each other there about two years ago. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed making it.
As a side personal note, I only wish we had extended the song, which maybe I can get Josh in on that idea. I do like the short and sweet version that leaves you wanting to hear more, but I digress.
~Josh IS the hub and catalyst of this and any great track we collab on! The force is surely strong with this great virtuoso and aficionado! Those that know, know. ❤️
Much Love!
Big respect and gratitude to you Josh! Love making these tunes with you buddy!

"In Time"
Lyrics:
In Time don't you think it might be time for you to rise?
In Time lost and found sleeping soundly by her side.
I know you by now, and it's not too late to come around.
In Time thinking, missing, drinking, wishing you were here.
In Time aging, watching, turning pages yester-year.
Well, I know you by now and it's not too late to come on out.
In Time don't you think it might be time for you to fly?
In Time don't you think it might be time for you to try?
In Time lost and found sleeping soundly by her side.

Missed the sound of my beautiful harpsichord and wanted to get back to my  symphonic meets  beats  phase  lately. As I put this together I am just reminiscent of the winter wonderland outside...

Shirley Temple Cover🍭

I’ve thrown away my toys
Even my drum and train
I wanna make some noise
With real live aeroplanes
Some day I’m gonna fly
I’ll be a pilot too

And when I do, how would you like to be my crew?
On the good ship lollipop
It’s a sweet trip to a candy shop where bonbons play on the sunny beach of peppermint bay
Lemonade stands everywhere
Cracker Jack bands fill the air
And there you are are …happy-landing on a chocolate bar
See the sugar bowl do the tootsie roll * …eat the big bad devils food cake
If you eat too much yer gonna get a tummy ache

On the good ship lollipop….
In to bed you hop
And dream away
On the hood ship lollipop
It’s a sweet trip…..

Hello friends and Music lovers,

Here's my latest piano exploration/improvisation. 

Molecules are as large a part of everything as notes are to Music. They're present, they have unique characteristics, and in total, give form to all things. And they flow. They also transform and create other things, just like the notes we play.  What a wonder-filled unfolding process.

So... here's to the magic of Molecular Flow and Music!
 
 
 May you enJoy.

Solo Piano - Chris Bright

what's left, part 2 - 4:26:24, 5.40 PM

There's no doubt about it, Music animates my Soul, and as an enthusiastic student of Life and a passionate Improvisational Pianist &  Composer,  as far as I'm concerned,  our lives would be impoverished without it ! :)  Composing is all about 'Sharing the Joy, Passion and Angst' we experience in Life, as well as connecting up with Musicians and 'Creatives' worldwide. This makes it even more wonderful!  That willingness to engage in whatever way makes SC an ever-expanding Movable Feast that nourishes and inspires on so many levels. 

Music Communicates the Emotional and Informational Content and Context of Heart, Mind, Spirit, and Soul. And 'Letting it Flow' is 'Where Its At' as I hear it!  

Over the past few years since becoming part of the SoundCloud Family, my 'Joy in and Passion for' Creative Musical Expression has increased exponentially as has my appreciation of all the wonderfully passionate Musicians and Creatives worldwide who have devoted themselves to Letting It Take Form! 

Here's a bit of a bio, if anyone is interested.  

Somehow, my MUSE got my attention at a tender age. About the time I was completing my Royal Conservatory training. 

My memory being poorer than most, I began improvising in the passages I had forgotten. And while the audience seemed unaware, my teacher chastised me indulgently, saying, "it appears I have a budding composer on my hands"!  And thus began my Odyssey into the wonderful Vibrational world of Sound!:-) In-deed, I have been an ardent, attentive and appreciative acolyte of my Muse ever since. 

During the early 1970s I had the pleasure and honour of a three year friendship and Master Class with the then Octogenarian Composer Manoah Leide-Tedesco , one of Tone Poem giant Richard Strauss` favorite pupils and friend of Maurice Ravel and other 20th century composers such as Stravinsky (whose music he helped popularize). Since then, whether Improvising, listening, studying composition or devoting myself wholly to the visual arts for years at a time, I have been deeply aware that sharing my musical insights , teaching, and or mentoring young aficionados came with the territory!   I love it, although I am afraid that as my consciousness expands...that I know less and less each year! :-)  

The Tonal Oasis called SoundCloud is a fine and wondrous place in oh so many ways.  And with your support and appreciation, I de-Light to share my music with an ever widening audience. I call what i upload ' Sound-Seeds'.  Most of these 'bed tracks' call out to be fleshed out by passionate soloists who somehow Resonate with my Soundz and Ideas.  So please drop me a line, as i am most interested in letting them bear more fruit through collaboration, interpretation, re-mixing or use in other media.    

And on a personal Note, a Huge Thank-You to each and all who listen, inJoy, and Re-Post onwards what finds it's way thru me! :) Bless y'all.  It's my Joy to simply 'Let' the Creative Spirit find expression through this instrument of Body, Mind, and Heart!  I hope you will find some peace, joy, and rest, in at least some of my improvisations, compositions, or soundz. 

Insofar as playing, and composing  ... as you continue on in Your journey into  the infinite 'Cave of Wonders' we call Music, I wish you all the very best in all Your creative endeavours. 

So Be Kind to yourSelves and one another. Be Audacious, Ready to Play, and above all, share the Joy of being able to express whatever you're feeling. 

In-deed, may The Muse continue to 'Sing on and Play on' through each of us !   For this is one way this 'ol world is lifted up, and Changed for the better - note by note, and smile by smile .  

 Yes, may we simply Let our Creativity flow forth without concern for results.
                                   Peace

                                    Gary *+*
