I hope you will enjoy our collaborating again!

Below are Cecilia´s Lyrics:
Ici et là de par le monde il semble que l'on soient plusieurs
Appellés à répendre de la lumière, à l'encontre des ténèbres
Chacun à sa manière, chacun de son côté, mais nos destins sont comme liés

Beaucoup d'entre nous ont souffert et ont surmonté leurs peines,
beaucoup connaissent les galères et ont résolu leurs problèmes
beaucoup ont encore dur, mais on garde le coeur pur
les intentions honnêtes

Je suis le capItaine de mon propre navire,
je garde le contrôle, je veux pas qu'il chavire,
tant de monde à explorer, de choses à partager
surfant sur les vagues de la destinée

Destins Liés

This ode to the Spring Solstice for Piano with just a hint of Strings tells a Story. But... 
I'll leave That entirely up to Your imaginations, my friends.  ;-)

May you enJoy the journey.

Dark River
KCM  29May09
dark river is the end of the road
the current is strong and the water is cold
many have drowned trying to reach the other shore
it’s too far to swim, but too close to ignore

well, dark river, is all that remains
dark river, take me home again

a man pays his way in dust and grime
washes it away with cheap red wine
fourty years on he comes to know
that he don’t wanna stay but he can no longer go

well, dark river, is all that remains
dark river, take me home again

some men work ‘til they hit the wall
they sweat and swear to the final call
some might think they have something more
but they all end up on dark river’s shore

well, dark river, is all that remains
dark river, take me home again

Dark River

The Reservoir Dogs - Dark River

This one is a bit special, it's the first song written and performed by my wife Helen. Helen had wanted to sing since childhood, but never managed to find the right opportunity to get started, and so in keeping with the betterlate philosophy, here is Helen's first song Try.

Ghost Train

In this track I used piano, strings and drums.
Thank you for listening !

Lyrics by Tony Harris that inspired Glen are listed below.
Vocals, Instruments, Music & Mix by Glenny G's "One Man Band"

WE'VE ALL SEEN OLD BARNS
ON COUNTRY ROADS
THAT NEED PROPPIN' UP
ON THE LEANIN' SIDE

WHEN LIFE GETS IN OUR WAY
AND WE'RE ON A DOWN HILL SLIDE
WE NEED PROPPIN' UP
ON THE LEANIN' SIDE

(CHORUS)
LORD, PROP US UP ON THE LEANIN' SIDE  
WHEN EVERYTHINGS GOIN' WRONG
PROP US UP ON THE LEANIN' SIDE  
WHEN WORRIED ABOUT THE UNKNOWN
PROP US UP ON THE LEANIN' SIDE  
WHEN WE'RE FEELIN' ALL ALONE

WE ALL HAVE GOOD DAYS 
WHEN EVERYTHINGS GOIN' RIGHT
WE ALL HAVE BAD DAYS
WHEN EVERYTHINGS GOIN' WRONG

WE ALL HAVE GOOD TIMES
WHEN WE'RE FEELIN' GOOD
WE ALL HAVE BAD TIMES
WHEN WE'RE FEELIN' SAD

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Prop Us Up On The Leaning Side - Collaboration by Tony Harris & Glenny G's "One Man Band" - Original

Based on a story by a dear friend https://soundcloud.com/user-823746278, I present the story of Lonayth Castle from the point of view of the attacker. Whatever prompted the aggressor to attack the kingdom of Lonayth, its inhabitants, children, men and women, simple people, will probably always remain a mystery.

I’m delighted to share my new piano track, “Branching Comfort”.
It has some of my most expressive playing, in an improvised style, driven by feeling.
I hope you enjoy the emotions conveyed- somber/melancholy that navigates it’s way towards a near spiritual resilience. 

Thanks for  listening

This piece is expressly composed to honor my father. He died in 1956 as a consequence of the penalties suffered in the concentration camps after the Spanish civil war. I was six years old. Life didn't give us much time to be together.

Taking It Back

Taking It Back | IPG1 & N.o.b.S.

Rock, Rock, Rock and no Alternative …
I am playing guitar and bass, I love prog rock, technical death metal and all flavors of hard rock.
I use SoundCloud for collaborations with other Artists, if time allows.
Mix and Mastering was done in the „N.o.b.S. Moonshine Studios“ based in my living room. 
Nearly everything had been recorded during the night, sometimes at daylight on weekends.

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 *+*
