Grammy® Nominated For Best Americana Performance:

ERIC ALEXANDRAKIS Silver Moon [A Tribute To Michael Nesmith]

Written by Michael Nesmith. 

Produced, performed, recorded and arranged by Eric Alexandrakis in first takes on a 16-track recorder.

On December 10, 2021, pioneering songwriter Michael Nesmith [The Monkees],
who is also the inventor of MTV, and a major influence upon the development of  the home video market, passed away at  the  age of 78.  His  passing  has  left  a  hole  in  the  world,  but  his influence lives on forever.

As a songwriter and overall innovator, Nez has been a great influence upon my music.  His passing affected me greatly and pushed me to record a cover of his solo classic “Silver Moon” from his 1970 album LOOSE SALUTE.  I’ve been wanting to record this song for many years, but as life tends to get in the way, I suddenly found myself drawn to giving Nez a send-off to his next cosmic journey, in my own way.  So I fired up my 16-track recorder, played all of the instruments myself in first  takes to keep it spontaneous, singing through guitar pedals, and released my version of “Silver Moon” 20 days after Nez’s passing...on his birthday.  

I hope you enjoy my recording, and Nez’s music.  EA x

Through It All

Finding My Way

"A mistake that keeps being repeated is not a mistake, it's a choice." - Unknown

It's about taking chances, riding the river of life, and inspired by my love of those classic songwriters and their lo-fi vibe.  

Ride the river.

"The Same Mistakes Again" written, arranged, recorded, produced & performed by Eric Alexandrakis.

Lyrics:

Well i've been down that troubled road before, many times afoul.
And i know every stone and tree and pothole, I've stepped on them and howled.
Yet still looking down that dusty road temptation calls my name.
Oh how does the painful sensation pull me to make the same mistakes again?

Oh there's a bridge over the river, which takes me home with ease,
But if life was always so easy, we'd never scrape our knees.
Yeah the trees, the bees and blades of grass get teased by the breeze and terrain,
But if we never ride that river, we'll make the same mistakes again.

That old uneven road has made me trip surely more than thrice,
And yet somehow I keep taking the same path, and I keep paying the price.
That bridge up ahead is an easy route that keeps me safe and sound,
But if I take that river, I might cover greater ground. 

Well there's a bridge over the river, which takes me home with ease,
But if life was always so easy, we'd never scrape our knees.
Yeah the trees, the bees and blades of grass get teased by the breeze and terrain,
But if we never ride that river, we'll make the same mistakes again.

BRIDGE

Well this boat is a bit flimsy, but in life there are never guarantees.
Things look so much different when rowing on one's knees,
But I'm moving forward living life, and always seeing new things.
Just looking to see what the future says, and what new things it brings.

Now an unsuspecting wave rolls by, and knocks me in the water.
Sometimes the cards we're dealt in the game of life, fold and burn or prosper.
As I gasped for air I swore that life will keep me, I'm no martyr.
When I regained my footing I stood real tall, and the world was mine to conquer.

Yeah there's a bridge over the river, which takes me home with ease.
But if life was always so easy, we'd never scrape our knees.
Yeah the trees, the bees and blades of grass get teased by the breeze and terrain,
But if we never ride that river, we'll make the same mistakes again.

Oh there's a bridge over the river, which takes me home with ease.
But if life was always so easy, we'd never scrape our knees.
Yeah the trees, the bees and blades of grass get teased by the breeze and terrain,
But if we never ride that river, we'll make the same mistakes again.

This is the talented composer and performer’s first album working with legendary producer and Grammy-winner Will Ackerman,
founder of Windham Hill Records, and recorded at his Imaginary Road Studios
With six successful albums of original piano compositions already in her discography, the California resident and philanthropist wanted to reach even higher heights in her musical career.
This led her to the rural mountains of Vermont and Will Ackerman’s Imaginary Road recording studios. Ackerman and noted audio engineer Tom Eaton collaborated with the gifted pianist and the result is Red Diamonds, a recording that is sure to thrill her current fans as well as introduce her to much wider audience.
