Love it, you have a Loundon Wainwright vocal vibe going on here!

In this track, your voice stands out better than ever, and the result is amazing! Your singing style and vocal tone are mesmerizing! 🙌🏻 Awesome job, Bill! You’ve got plenty more songs to dust off, right? We really hope so!! Never stop!! ❤️‍🔥

Your singing and guitar playing are both beautiful...Very beautiful song...I think so‼️

Very cool song Bill! Great guitar work and awesome lyrics! Sounds very much like a Paul Simon song! Fantastic job!👍😎✌🏼

I feel like I'm in the room while you guys are recording

Razor sharp chops and always the clever and fun lyric; half ballad, half opining on the state of life.  We can all relate whether 25 years ago, or right now as we listen to this masterpiece. Kudos on some jaw-dropping playing.

Your guitar playing is as incredible as ever. 👏

I missed hearing this when it was originally posted on SoundCloud...Great performance!

Daily Drops

Listen to my song 'echoes' in which a trumpet, trombone, tuba and baritone sax react to eachother on a funky base of drums and dry finger bass!

Tenor sax duel - trading over bass, beats and drones.

Piano drops

Original demo. No mixing.. no doctoring. Probly 25 years ago..,my voice is really high.. the chorus is dumb… I sounded happy and awake. Rare moment…

Lyrics: blah blah Babbity blah.. yeah yeah same old shit different day.. same old van rusting away

Yay!!

same old place

at the disco
goin’ all the way
with a speedball
on an empty day

i wonder if i stopped my cryin’
i wonder if i stopped now

crooked halo
all you’ve got today
your dependents
better back away

i wonder if i stopped my cryin’
i wonder who i’d be now

in the moonlight
goin’ all the way
to the river
gonna watch for day

i wonder if i stop my crying’
i wonder what i’d see now

Dynomus (2025)

Here's a track that Jeff and Terry had started and sent to me before release to see what might happen.  It's a rare Smoking Trout one off, although I suspect one day our friends on the bus will be talking about this one.  I was able to add some wacky playground guitar that gets crazier as things assimilate.  I think

Lyrics by STONERJAZZ

Always get a little sentimental
in the middle of the conversation
when i think about all the options offered
during the assimalation

when the level of concern
and the nature of the consternation
for the mundane and the useless
made it difficult to accept or advocate the privilege
and the worship of the lucky landing of the crooked Cowboys

Though sentimental in its nature
its making meditations incomplete
and decisions Faulty
just distractions while we fiddle in the middle of another Crisis
in the simulation
and the monkeys say "Good good Real good yum yum yum yum
now we're gonna get some Yeah"

Assimilation (The Smoking Trout: TRC, STONERJAZZ & TexMex Shaman)

Cast of characters:
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– Taylor T5z acoustic guitar, Tom Anderson Custom T electric guitar, Gibson Earle Scruggs banjo, Eastwood MandoCaster mix, mastering, production, and composition
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums 
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Fender Precision four string bass, played with a plectrum 
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – harmonica, jaw harp, timpany, hambone percussion, and production editing     
This song began with Stephen, who recorded it on his acoustic guitar and bass to a programmed drum track a few months ago. We were all thrilled to work on it, even though it sat in BandLab as a project for almost a month before Stephen separated the tracks, thus allowing us to trickle in our parts. JJ was first to jump on it, because he could before the tracks were separated, as his part is completely his idea. He added the organ that really set up the entire sound of both dominant sections of the song. 
  Ken was first up to the project once the tracks were replaceable, making the wild, driving beat his own. Inspired by both JPJ and Michael Ivins, Josh laid down his bass line, trying to match Ken's energy. Last, but not least, Mark jumped in with the rumbling timpani. He also added the flavorful harmonica, and unique jaw harp you hear throughout, as well. 
  At that point, Stephen also got the idea to add the hambone percussion at the very end of the song, which we all consider a treat, and after showing us how it's done, Mark volunteered his percussion skills to give it a go. Stephen wasn't done with it, though, and still had some magic to sprinkle. He went in and added the howling electric guitar you hear prominently in the second main section. Also, he added the tempting intro with his acoustic guitar and electric mandolin that looks like a Telecaster guitar. 
  Once it was in the bag, we thought it appropriate for our master mixer Stephen to put it to bed, which he did in his always expert manner. Mark did help with the production, though, as he's very good with editing and spotting mistakes that need to be corrected.
  This is a gift from Stephen to all of us, and you, too. It took a lot of teamwork to make the dream work, as always for Eclectic Collective. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

TITLE: WET ME
_________________________________________________
LYRICS: 

(Verse 1)
Sands that shimmer
Oh so bright
Underneath the moon's soft light
Whispers call
A siren's song
Feel the rhythm
All night long

(Chorus)
Ooh
Yeah
Ooh
Yeah
Sway with me
Feel the heat
Let it set you free
Round and round
Like a desert breeze
Lose yourself
In the melodies

(Verse 2)
Golden dunes
They hold the key
Secrets lost in eternity
Eyes that glimmer
Deep and wide
Come with me
Where dreams collide

(Chorus)
Ooh
Yeah
Ooh
Yeah
Sway with me
Feel the heat
Let it set you free
Round and round
Like a desert breeze
Lose yourself
In the melodies

(Bridge)
Step by step
Under starlit skies
Hips that move
A sweet surprise
Echoes linger
Soft and low
Follow me
Where the shadows go

(Chorus)
Ooh
Yeah
Ooh
Yeah
Sway with me
Feel the heat
Let it set you free
Round and round
Like a desert breeze
Lose yourself
In the melodies
(Outro) Stay deep inside me. Before you sleep, lay beside me. Oh, oh! How you, you wet me, like a waterfall splashing inside my walls.

Come Deep Inside

Wet Me

How much more now is enough
the body turning home
passions and the red, red dust
You and wonder roam

Far more grace than we can see
often so deceived
To give, to give to give away
And find where tender lays

It's miles and miles away
Smile
We're gonna find another way

We were larks whistling, 
soaring with our wings  
The memories fade, but the love remains 
We were fine art, a masterpiece 

We were larks whistling, 
soaring with our wings  
The memories fade, but the love remains 
We were fine art, a masterpiece

soaring with our wings  
The memories fade, but the love remains 
We were fine art, a masterpiece

This song began with Steve, who wrote it on his guitar and sang it, before sharing it with Eclectic Collective about half a year ago, back in the fall. Always grateful to Steve for sharing his amazing music with us, we kept it alive even though it had stalled out on us for whatever reason. 
  We had a decent skeleton from our original go at it, but decided to scrap it, and start fresh. Ken, being the one who actually revived it, added his solid drums first, providing for a groovy foundation. Tez came next, surprisingly, adding his hooky guitar fills throughout. Mark hopped on shortly after, adding the organ you hear coming in around the 2:00 mark. Josh took his turn after that, even though it was only a couple of days between, by adding his fretless bass to complete the rhythm section. He also, in the same recording session, added the electric piano you hear throughout, as well as the organ in the first half. 
  Once it was in the can, we asked Stephen to mix it for us, in his always professional manner. 
  We all love working on Steve's songs, and admire him as a musician, singer, and songwriter. This makes almost a half dozen songs on which the EC has collaborated with Steve, and we're sure to add many more. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

No AI. None at all. Hello!   If I was good enough, something would have happened by now…maybe it  did and I just didn’t pay attention. Maybe I’m in the midst of something.

I’m primarily a Songwriter and play and sing too. 

I used to  perform with various talented artists. Im now returning to writing and recording.  Theres some evidence of this…

Theres always someone new to hear . 


Thanks for listening and providing inspiration via your own beautiful art.

Side Note :  My goal here is to upload my catalog to date... thats something ….right?

I am humbled by your kind and generous spirit and your willingness to share it.

I’ve been ignored by some really talented people.. it is my claim to fame.

same old place
