I’LL BE BETTER OFF
AND A BETTER MAN
NEXT LIFE

MUCH LESS OF A FOOL
WAKING UP AT NOON 
NEXT LIFE

I’LL BELIEVE IN GOD
AND HE’LL BELIEVE IN ME
NEXT LIFE
NO MORE PLAYING TOUGH
WITH MY LITTLE WOMAN  NEXT LIFE
 
NO MORE MOCKERY
EASY JUDGERY
NEXT LIFE

NO FOOLING AROUND
I WON’T LET YOU DOWN
NEXT LIFE

A MERCEDES BENZ
AND TIME ON MY HANDS
NEXT LIFE

IN MY LIFE TO COME
I MIGHT EVEN BECOME
YOUR WIFE
BAKING COOKIES FOR YOU MY LOVE
 

LIKE A ROLLING STONE
I’LL BE GOING HOME
NEXT LIFE

MUCH LESS OF A GOON 
HOWLING AT THE MOON 
NEXT LIFE

AND I’LL BELIEVE IN YOU
AND YOU’LL BELIEVE IN ME
NEXT LIFE

BUT FOR NOW I WILL
DO MY BEST AND KILL
MY TIME

NEXT LIFE
NEXT LIFE
NEXT LIFE

Bye bye Dave, 
I'll be seeing you....

NEXT LIFE (Lyrics)

Amazon

A traditional style blues song. Exploring family relationships.
Lyrics:
She had a hard scrabble life
Her Mother used to drink all day
Her Father never understood the physics of love
And her Sister died of cancer when she was 9
And now everyone that she meets
She ingrains herself deep into their lives
She'll sit with your sick Mother
She'll talk with your Sister all night long
She's the collector
She collecting families

Overcoming the past
That keeps us all down on our knees
She sees my Cousin more than me
She went to visit her ex-husbands parents
In East Lansing
Some people get drunk and dancing
Some people like to collect shiny things
She's a collector
She collects families
She's a collector
She collects families
Because it gives her what she needs
She's the connecting fiber
She grafted onto the family tree
She keeps the peace in the family

Takamine G Series Guitar. CMINOR11 tuning with Capo on 2nd fret = eminor11 ?
recorded on my mobile phone. One take live recording mistakes and all, of an improvisation. written as a quality test of a fairly cheap, €200 guitar, it's nice sometimes to just pick up an instrument and play with No DAW, no effects or production 😄 

Musings in Eminor11

Ah, dear listener! I present myself here with my good buddy Gary, rather sheepish and shamefaced at being absent from this church of sonic jewels for the longest time.  I have been a bad listener, I'm afraid.  Bereft of mojo, time and without my little studio. Mea culpa. 

If you've read this far, you already have a whiff of the legendary about you.

So one day, quite recently,  the Phaigester messages me and opens his raincoat to reveal a select library of stellar little ear-nuggets he's been hiding away. What beauties, I tell thee! What beauties!
He lives here and you should visit if you haven't before

Three grabbed me instantly..deep, swirling soundstrata, complex and intriguing in equal measure. 

Perched on my bed, yodelling into the abyss, I attempt to add to his painting.  Teleported into that great,  inkyblack wonderland of transcendent joy again.

Hats off to Gar. Inventive, musical and patient. Thanks for your art and resuscitating me.

3 tracks..8mins plus..big ask. But hey, if you've read this far whilst listening you're halfway through 

Cheers me hearties, catch  you soon
Be good

Peripheral

I can’t see you, I can’t be with you
I can’t hold you or feel your welcome touch
As we slip into the water

I always sense you, I always feel you
Moving with me, our thoughts alike so much
As we slip into the water

When you slipped away on that awful day
You made me promise to live my life my own way
As I walk with you into the water

No more peripheral
It is logical
It is you and me

Tlaslila

I feel
Like I want to ride across the desert
Baking sand, tears of sweat in my eyes
Then climb climb the black mountains
Oh-oh-over we go, sail into the grey blue skies
I feel cold, dark deepness,
Feel fearsome rain,
Then fall
Fall into your arms again

Strange Agent

Strange Agent
You're never gonna find the man
Strange Agent
He'll let you run while you can

Fool you summoned him from beyond
Fool you thought he'd give you what you want
But that ain't the deal
Spinning the wheel
He's found something to steal
There's a soul to pay

Strange Agent, running wild in your head
Strange Agent telling you to talk with the dead
He's taking you by the hand

It's In The Room EP ThePhaige with Nicholas Ridiculous

This is my second collab with @mralchemy , I love his sound and style, check out his cool productions and thought inspiring hip hop from Australia if you haven't had the chance yet. He and his son both worked on this one with me, I think it turned out great!

_______________________________________________________________________
A very long time ago, humans took nature's example on a large number of things with delicacy and respect, which was very beneficial to them.
Then as man's intelligence developed, he tried to do better than nature by respecting it as much as possible.
By trying to circumvent the laws of nature, she will turn against the one who outrageously hurts her because in everything there is a price to pay and here we are at dawn.

Il y a très longtemps, les humains prenaient avec délicatesse et respect, l'exemple de la nature sur un très grand nombre de choses, ce qui leur était très bénéfique.
Puis à mesure que l'intelligence de l'homme se développait, il essayait de faire mieux que la nature en la respectant autant que possible.
A force de chercher à contourner les lois de la nature, elle se retournera contre celui qui lui fait outrageusement mal car dans tout il y a un prix à payer et nous voici à l'aube.
