A request from a dear friend whom I have known since I was 17. 
We have shared some wonderful times through the years, on the Isle of Arran, Edinburgh and France. She is a constant light, and I give thanks for her friendship.
Recorded this morning, guitar and vocal together, then added some mouthie

Carey ( Joni Mitchell )

Another relic from the lockdown vault...

I wrote and recorded this at the end of 2020 (hence no mention of the events of Jan 6th 2021) but never released it at the time for various reasons. 

Given recent events I thought why not clean it up and put it out. 

Just a bit of haaahmless fun as Arnie might say :)

Alien, Un Gout Étrange Venu D'ailleurs By Zitou Itou & Cecilia Speciale

Poem “Dillard Sissman” from the Spoon River Anthology by Edgar Lee Masters

Thanks for recital from LibriVox.org read by Linda Leu

The buzzards wheel slowly
In wide circles, in a sky
Faintly hazed as from dust from the road.
And a wind sweeps through the pasture where I lie
Beating the grass into long waves.

My kite is above the wind,
Though now and then it wobbles,
Like a man shaking his shoulders;
And the tail streams out momentarily,
Then sinks to rest.

And the buzzards wheel and wheel,
Sweeping the zenith with wide circles
Above my kite. And the hills sleep.
And a farm house, white as snow,
Peeps from green trees - far away.

And I watch my kite,
For the thin moon will kindle herself ere long,
Then she will swing like a pendulum dial
To the tail of my kite.
A spurt of flame like a water-dragon
Dazzles my eyes -
I am shaken as a banner!

Kite

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

Self-doubt is a killer. Sometimes you just have to drown out all the noise.

IT’S NOT OVER

It’s all over
It’s all over
It’s all over
It’s all over
Did you think that it would never end
Did you lose your mind
Did you think that you were going blind
That maybe you might be one of a kind

It’s all over
It’s all over
It’s all over
It’s all over
Maybe it’s time to try again
Maybe it’s time for a second glance
Maybe a small thing overlooked
And maybe maybe maybe you’re alone in your nook

Oh-oh
They tell you
Oh-oh
They yell ya
Oh-oh
They fell you
Oh-Oh
It’s hell ya
Oh-oh
They tell you
Oh-oh

They tell you
It’s all over
Tell you
It’s all over
They tell you
It’s all over
Tell you
It’s all over
You can see beyond the doubt
You can feel what’s right and what’s wrong
All this time and its not so bad
You’re all alone and you had it all figured out
It’s not over
It’s not over

It's Not Over

Tell Me Why

Angel let me free

Chorus

This isn't the end
it's a new beginning 
you haven't lost
you've won
A brand new start 
An open door
to more 
Can you see it

Bridge

Open the door 
see what's waiting 
on the other side
Open the door
you won't regret 
unless you don't try 

vs 1
Letting go
of what you thought 
it would be like 
is never easy
walking away
from what thought 
you set in motion
that fell apart 
along the way
but what you gained
in believing 
something better
would come to be
you sparked 
where you're going 
keep going, you'll see

vs 2
It's been a
long time coming
but your new life
is waiting for you
you've reached 
so many 
pivotal moments
that have gotten
you here
don't you
dare stop
don't you dare
give up
you've got it in you
to go 
way farther
than this
to reach that goal
that finish line


Open Door

Strange Goins On

Enticement

(I’m A) Movin’ On

I best be a'movin’ on
I got to go
I’ve outstayed my welcome honey
Your mother knows I got wild oats to sow
I’ll take my queue
I’ll burden no more
I’ll take their hints
It’s time to roll
So long
I’m a'movin’ on
I’m a'movin’ on

There ain’t no point in complaining
About the evil eyes set on me
Holes are burning
As they envision me in effigy
I wish I could stay babe
But nothing ‘bout this that’s okay
I should be a'headin’ out
Gettin’ on my way
I got’s t'be movin’ on
I got’s t'be movin’ on

Who hosts an evening
Disguised inquiry
Posing questions curiously
Waiting baited for missteps by me
Wanting nothing
‘Cept to spill duplicity
They want to believe
But refuse to see
I can’t be a’stayin’
I must be a'movin’ on
I must be a'movin’ on

I got out
Got pulled back in
The moment I protest
They welcome me as kin
I let my guard down
They lick their lips
I love you sweetheart
But this boys back got
Ain’t no more to give to the whip
It’s time to trip
I must be a'movin’ on

I’m movin’ on
I’m movin’ on
I’m movin’ on
I’m movin’ on

NO MESSAGES ABOUT PROMOTIONS PLEASE!!!

Independent artist, writer, producer


I started playing gigs in 1968,  I believe I was in the eight grade. It was only junior high school dances but at the time, it was electrifying. In 1964, I remember watching "The Ed Sullivan Show" and seeing the Beatles perform live and they pretty much jump started my interest in music, Long hair, guitars and Beatle boots, very cool, still cool. I have always enjoyed good harmony parts and George's slide work has always inspired me. Over the years like so many others, I’ve played concerts, night clubs, special events, coffee houses, bars and such. Also toured the U.S. in 76. Now it's all about writing, recording, having some fun and being a part of the Sound Cloud community. Yeah man! 
Debut Album called “ Seafoam” released 2018 at Bandcamp, iTunes, Amazon and CD Baby.


Some of my fav producers would be Gary Katz, Jeff Lynne, Sir George Martin, Eddie Kramer and Mark Hudson. As far as guitar players, great hooks from Keith Richards, best tone Eric Clapton, best feel SRV! Best slide guitar George Harrison, Sonny Landreth, Derek Trucks and Ry Cooder. Most creative exploration Eric Johnson. The most original and always inspiring the GOAT Mr. Jeff Beck, he is amazing. Walter Becker had the cool factor and the Mu chords as well as wrote such interesting lyrics.
