Ooh nice Beatles-esque composition - I can imagine Lennon singing over the top!

This is truly lovely, Jim. And it evokes aspects of my young musical life so well!

Piano Solo 6 Notes on Sand

Cast of characters: 

Steve's Planet-- @steve-vervaet —Steve—acoustic guitar, vocals, lyrics, composition/arrangement
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ—organ 
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez–electric guitar, production, and mix 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – four-string fretless bass and lap steel
This song began by Steve writing it on his acoustic guitar, singing it, and passing the recording on to Josh to share with the rest of the Eclectic Collective. Tez was first to add his complimentary guitar in his typical expert fashion. Ken then added his very tasteful drums. Soon after. Josh worked his bass part until it was dialed in. After the Rhythm section was solid, JJ came along and sprinkled his organ magic throughout. Then, for good measure, Josh added some lap steel, too.
  Of course, every great song needs a great producer, and Tez was the man for the job on this one. Steve is a fantastic singer and songwriter. We all feel very lucky that he so generously shares his talent and work with us. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Original lyrics by Steve Vervaet:
Love is all aqround
Your love is coming down x2
your love is all around x2
just look what I have found x2
love will touch the ground x2
And I'm just waiting for you
just waiting on your train
to pass my house again x2
I know that I come around again x2
I know that I can find you x2
so let me in your heart x4
You know that I can find you
you know that I will
You know that I can give
I can give you anything
You know that I can find you x4

Love is All Around - The Eclectic Collective with Steve’s Planet

Original Song by Bill Liggett   Rick Ledgerwood ( Bass ) Larry Sell ( Harmonica ) Bill Liggett ( Guitar and vocals )
Please believe me, not because you should, only just because its true
I shot all the bad guys from a thousand miles away
But that was when my aim was oh so true..so true
Catch it on the evening news not because it's true, only just because its information
I jumped in front of danger , back when my legs were strong
But that was when my legs were oh so strong... so strong
Chorus:
Strange things happen and they happen to so many, many strange things happen all the time.. strange things happen and they happen to so many , many strange things happen all the time
And when they do you'll have to wonder are they worth a nickel...or a penny..
A Nickel or a penny
Read it like a romance, not because you should...only just because I might have died and broke your little heart
But a steadfast hero I remained back when my heart was strong
But that was when my heart was oh so strong... so strong

Nickel or a Penny (Song for Adele take 2)

Trouble East

another from Sipos Studios. Original song by Bill Liggett.

Is it a good time.. lets make our point short and sweet
Save all the details till next time we meet
and if I dont see ya, dont you know that ill see ya
And if I happen to see you first ill be gone

is it important..im under the gun a hit and a run
they say that a snapshot is good for a thousand words
and if I dont see ya, dont you know that ill see ya
and if I happen to see you first ill be gone

anything more aint worth tryin
a lifetime of livings only 10 min long
and if I said any more id be lying way too much for a three minute song
and if.. I dont see ya, dont you know that i'll see ya
And if I happen to see you first..ill be gone.
Is it over,, did it all end in the blink of an eye
dont you fuss over me,, baby don't you cry
cuz if I dont see ya, dont you known that ill see ya
And if I happen to see you first ill be gone

I'll Be Gone

[Lyrics]

I was reborn  
I listened to the voices no one else could hear  
How about this?  
Let’s tell each other what we like most

The clinking of glasses sounded sarcastic  
At least play this song that only I know  
I want to leave everyone confused  
Even in the dark, your eyes were the only ones shining

You can tell by the decorations  
It’s Christmas  
Gathered by the crazy poolside  
The band starts playing to a strange request  
Shell sunglasses, even though it’s winter

I’m sorry for being distant that night  
I was scared of a meeting straight out of a real movie  
Is there a reason you helped me?

We’re not in a relationship where you give orders  
But still, I want to do everything you say  
Wrapped in the red-purple sky  
I suddenly felt a presence

You can tell by the decorations  
It’s Christmas  
Gathered by the crazy poolside  
The band starts playing to a strange request  
Shell sunglasses, even though it’s winter

People flirting, playing games  
Watching lovers in their games  
But still, I choose to lose

You can tell by the decorations  
It’s Christmas  
Gathered by the crazy poolside  
The band starts playing to a strange request  
Shell sunglasses, even though it’s winter

even though it’s winter
even though it’s winter

People flirting, playing games  
Watching lovers in their games  
But still, I choose to lose

You can tell by the decorations  
It’s Christmas  
Gathered by the crazy poolside  
The band starts playing to a strange request  
Shell sunglasses, even though it’s winter

even though it’s winter

even though it’s winter

CHRISTMAS GAMEs

Thanks to Camille Bordelon for reminding me to give this tune the tlc it needed. I think I had been unconsciously procrastinating it given it's a personal heart ripper! I decided to change the pic too. Figure that one with the sun shining on a house is a nice empowerment of what I'm trying to do...  Write us a house :) Let's go!

Lyrics

Human volcanoes erupting around me
They tell me I'm insane
Well I feel.fine
With my muse tuned chime
A soothing silence the only answer
That way I'm not lying
Just pruning my wings pre flying 

Well friends and family it's time to watch me soar
These musical clouds were always meant to be my work
This ain't no end it's a new beginning
My heads screwed on and I'll sing about fucking sinning 

Let's not mistake passion for insanity
We could all do with a smaller ration...
That's what Earth say!
"but Carl it's one in a million"
I know, but I'm one in one quadrillion!
"Carl, don't you doubt yourself?"
No, put right, I'll write us a house 

Carl it's one in a million
But I know I'm one in one quadrillion
But Carl won't you doubt yourself
No this is it put right
I think I'll write us a house 

So human volcanoes erupting around me
They tell me I'm insane
Well I feel fine
With my muse tuned chime
A soothing silence the only answer
That way I'm not lying
Just pruning my wings pre flying
