Love...as a feeling you get when you go over Niagara Falls in a barrel?

That image was developed by simply approaching a collaboration (with UK musician, Anthony Gee - Liquid on mp3u) with the "start where you are" wisdom. What is more iconic for people working with a Canadian than Niagara Falls? 

Anthony had been exploring electronica using a midi keyboard, but had never written a rock tune. Ever ready for opportunities to help others, I asked Anthony for a keyboard progression as a foundation, since he was taking piano lessons at the time, and from that foundation the rock track would be built with the addition of lyrics, guitar, and harmonica. Eventually the song needed an instrumental, and that was where the real learning for Anthony took place - he had never learned to improvise, only to read music. Thinking out of the box and feeling the music is a little intimidating for some. So, many file-exchanges later, he had let his hair down enough to try that rock organ phrase that appears here. 

Here's to learning, to experimenting, to learning to give control over to others and to celebrating life-long learning. Who ever said you can't teach old dogs new tricks?

Lyrics:

I thought love was so simple,
But it turns out it's really complex,
With a lot of inuendo
There's body language
There's the subtle conversation,
And it's driving me mad
I feel I'm in a barrel going over a falls
In a barrel, going nowhere at all

I thought love was the cure that I needed
But it seems I was wrong
And there's no doubt about it
Love can be easy, like a lazy river
But when the current picks up
You better know how to paddle
I feel I'm in a barrel going over a falls
In a barrel, going nowhere at all

(instrumental)

I thought love was gonna take me to places
My heart hadn't seen, and I was anticipatin'
The joy and the bliss 
That I had found with your kissin'
Took me too far from shore
And now I'm self-destructin'

I feel I'm in a barrel going over a falls
In a barrel, going nowhere at all

Anthony Gee: piano, organ, bass
Terry: lyrics, vocals, harmonica, guitar

In A Barrel (With Anthony Gee)

I'm starting a new project inspired by the night. Must be the time of year!

Night Moves

collaboration with IPG1.
Lyrics by IPG1 (aka Ian Greaves)

IPG1 & Quick On The Drawing - Oh Yeah Lou

Well i wrote this song for the Rolling Stones if they should ever get around to listening to it,  i have always been a big fan so i decided to mix a bit of Gospel, a bit of Blues and Hey presto a new song for Mick and Keith. In true Keith Richard tradition i took my Bass E string off and tuned the guitar to key of G. The main guitar is the Bridge pick up on the Les Paul giving a nice rounded sound and the lead is the bridge pick up more giving a more trebly and cutting through the mix a bit. No processing all clean as they sound. My vocals have a bit of Saturation and distortion and Compression to give me that bluesy sound, hope you'll like it and Mick & Keith if your out there let me know how i did..

Written by Johnny Mc Farlane for the Rolling Stones.
