I wonder who is this person - inimitably you Imre

slide reminds me of the great George Harrison . congrats !!

Such great guitar and songwriting! Fantastic lyrics!

Excellent texte, et une musique vraiment sympa, les guitares sont terribles et joyeuses :)

Really glad we crossed paths. Your music is such a vibe. Effortlessly cool and tongue in cheek in places. Great energy, melodies and your vocals rock!

Original song by Coral. A song about the illusion of a social ladder.

Cover art by Coral (inspired by Jean-Michel Basquiat)

Climbing a step you’re on your knees
You hold on a corpse you crush its skull
And you believe, you’re innocent

Holding your breath you compliment
The ones that you hate you lick their feet
And you believe, you’re innocent

You see them all rats so meaningless
The folk that you praised to gain their votes
And still you climb, your pride is high

All what you have what they don’t have
You stuff with some treat till you can’t eat
But still you climb, your pride is high

You know that your time is money worth
You rest on your slave who cleans your mess
And you believe, you’re satisfied

The prize you deserve is what you see
No nut for the ape who’s begging you
And you believe, you’re satisfied

The first time you meet you put a tag
No high school degree this dude is dull
And you believe, you reached a top

You act like you were the finest breed
Your god is the one and only one
And you believe you reached a top
And you believe

It seem like a crown it’s shinning gold
It suits to your head you’re feeling proud
Still you believe, you reached a top

(but) There ain’t any class or any mount
There ain’t any social ladder too
Still you believe, you are on top 
Still you believe…
(you’re innocent)

Innocent

Picture ...Keep your Soul Safe (Rae)

Someone once tried to Hypnotise me as a way of getting into my Past life Soul experience. There was No result....Within myself I realise that this is an Invasion of Privacy. I call this Tech nosis, very often without the person performing it being aware that they are being Used so deceptively. Our Past Lives are as Private as our Present and Future lives. By that I mean that noone has the Right (usually for corrupt money payment, or during their course of 'training') to enter anyone's Personal life and Thoughts to give a human a sense of 'no sense', lostness or ruin, by use of the Net-WorkMatrix. As humans we only Share what we Want to share. I believe the person trying to do this was distracted too much by Material things and Money, and so Subconsciously allowed themselves to be used in that way.  Those that have no remorse for these actions, I have no words for them.

Social media is presenting a very Dark Vibe these days throughout several platforms. A dangerous combination of Intellect and Tech-wise manipulation, narcissism and Gaslighting Tech-niques within Temptation of corrupt money. I call this Anti-Social media. Yes there Is something we can do about it...Witness it, Talk to it if you Want to, Touch it if you Want to...but please do not Drop and Join it.( re the saying, 'If you can't Beat em, Join them')You might endure Pressure, Pain and a feeling of Rejection and Failure, as well as the low frequency taunts and false accusations from those using their insecurities against you (Toxic behaviour). The Pain is part of your Growth, and the perpetrators can make it difficult, but don't back down to any kind of Victim blame..the Pressure is only part of a System that You consequently Reject. And how can You feel rejected when you are Always moving Forward to new Earth, away from the dark Cloud and Satellite system. I like to be Here, Without being There if you get me. If you Don't get me, and are using the Net in a deceptive way, I Will reject you and any other form of Technical advances. Those of us using the net for Positive purposes will not get Driven away by the Dark web...and it's Attempts of Spirit Curse, Monitoring Spirits, and Interference in our Soul development. This is Satanism, and there is no such thing as Good Satanism. Please do not blame the Device of internet, only those who are Using it in a bad way. 

Please try Not to be under Technosis whilst using this thing called the InterNet, no matter how much corrupt money you were tempted with ( maybe Some of you are doing it just for the Kick). We can See you....And Awakening People Go your Own way🕊️We are all here to Help each other. The use of Balancing Dark and Light does not include Satanism (Shadows) in any way.

I would rather walk through Complete Darkness than be in Shadows...

Love and Peace✨

HAPPY RETURNS (Lyrics) Song for Jake

An early Christmas present in my stocking!
Recently I awoke to a SC link in my mailbox.  What is this??!! To my utter delight, Oddrun, Arne & Peter surprised me with this wonderful musical gift.  The original piano track was to be a "someday" project between Oddrun and me, but this is triple the fun!  Thank you Oddrun, Arne and Peter not only for remodeling my orphan track, but more importantly for this wonderful gift of friendship.

Evenings With You

As usual…. you’re running late
How long can it take?
To run a brush through your hair, pull on some clothes?
You can talk ….. just look at your state
You made a big mistake
If you think you’re going out with me, dressed in those!
Why…. these are nearly brand new
Give a decade or two
Might concede their first wash is a tad overdue
My dear sweetheart
They’re simply falling apart
Rather, I have to say, just like you
Hmmm…let’s give the restaurant a miss,
Call this evening a day, waddaya say
We pull the blinds, chill the wine, book our sofa for two
Now there’s a plan…..kick off these shoes
Pan the dining out blues
Stayin’ in for …..evenings with you

…..evenings with you…..

Evenings With You. Oddrun, Arne, Peter & Debra

Alchemy and Stones
By David Husted

V1

Your an alchemist shaping my world
metal and leaf, herbs and fire
Your the pestle to ground the root
To shake my truth, without gun powder
   
ch                      
We were lost you see
Shattered stones with a strange alchemy
You're my mystic key reaching down deep into the
heart of me

V2
And the stones of philosophers
The secrets of flowers golden
The halls of wise, the dreams that lie behind
The paradise we long for

ch
We were lost you see
Shattered stones with a strange alchemy
You're my mystic key reaching down deep into the
heart of me

Rock Bridge

Ch Quiet

You're my mystic key reaching down deep into the
heart of me
                
V3

You take my cynical, my rigid , my narrow mind stiffening
You mix me it in your crucible, release internal conflicts
I'm tired of being wrapped up in my revolutions
Un-dress me take me inside your peaceful evolution

Your peaceful evolution
Your peaceful evolution
 

Ch  
I kind of think I might 
I kind of think I might 
I kind of think I might 
I kind of think I might

Love You

I have a new song release scheduled for 13 DEC 24 called Alchemy and Stones. 

In one of my past song journal entries my word of the day was amalgam and I threw in the word alchemy for good measure.  During the lyric building process for this song my brain seemed to be still heavily steeped in the essence of these words. They were percolating through my thought streams. Much of the lyrical content contains imagery associated with this chemistry of the past and its mythic symbols. Our messy world provided additional ingredients that fell into the steaming crucible and began to round out this song into its final state.

There were four different songs that fed my creative spark and development process.  They were the following:

Spoon: Wild
James McMurtry: Canola Fields
Fruit Bats: Waking Up in Los Angeles
Taylor Swift: Anti-Hero

Deep bow of gratitude to all these artists.  My primary reference for the arrangement was Wild and it had the deepest structural influence on the song. The McMurtry song helped me hit on an idea for the chorus melody that seemed to stick with me and I liked his vocal delivery and cadence. The Fruit Bats was really not used at all but I loved the ohhhs in the chorus and wanted to find a way to emulate the laid back ease of them in my song.  However, my particular song style, tempo and arrangement just never allowed an entry point. The Fruit Bats song did keep the juices flowing though so that is why it still receives honorable mention in this write-up.

Finally, the  song by Taylor Swift: Anti-Hero did have a role in my song believe it or not.  If you listen to one of the synths you will hear a gated pumping sound courtesy of an Auto Pan and a Phaser-Flanger Plug-in. I really should thank a Music Producer named Ill Factor for teaching me the sound design process here. He demonstrated the technique in a YouTube video. Pretty cool.  As I have said before, I learn something new in every new song I build.  It is always deeply enjoyable for me. I also appreciate you for leaning in and listening. I wish you all the very best.

Thank You

Have a Great Weekend,

Ice & Fire is the twelfth studio album by the Dragonsail Puppets.

THE HEAT LADDER   
  
I saw the lightning strike the grass and flame   
Volcano spew the rock of lame   
Dead branches rub together - flame   
And we started to climb   
Into the all-consuming fire   
  
Scratching flint to flame   
Torches dipped to flame   
Surging interior balls of flame   
Faces flickering aflame   
  
Creeping and stooping with furry backs   
Through the icy night   
We started to climb   
Into the bubbling vats and the roaring engines   
And the hissing steam   
Into space   
  
I'm not surprised   
For the day we met with our eyes   
The world began   
And I knew   
The all-consuming fire   
Was already in my hand   
  
Yeah this mutha gets hot   
Underground no sound   
But the crackling and the bubbling all around   
We're the dust of a meteor shower   
And we've always been solar powered   
More lessons on the way   
Buttercup, ape's going up   
I gotta cool off honey   
Train the hose on all I got   
Cuz this mutha gets hot

Cast of Characters:  

TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– acoustic guitar, electric guitar solo, mix, production, and mastering

J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- Yamaha Genos 2 piano solo 

K2 and the Three [and the Four] -- @k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1– Warwick 4-string fretless bass, piano, mandolin, and vocals

This is an old Jerry Jeff Walker song from a live album that Josh's dad played countless times while driving around in his his old pickup truck while he was growing up. Josh decided this year's musical gift to his father would be a recording of this song, which his dad has always loved. When he asked his bandmates in the Eclectic Collective to help him with it, they all generously and enthusiastically agreed to do so.

  Josh began the song by laying down the piano you hear throughout. He then added the bass before asking Ken to lay down the drums. Ken learned the song very quickly, and added perfect drums to it. Stephen then added his solid foundational guitar. Then, Josh went back in and added the mandolin before singing the whole thing. Before it was done, however, Josh tapped JJ to add the piano solo after the first chorus, which he did with grand style and flourish.

  Once it was in the can, Stephen was kind enough to mix and master it in his always professional manner. 

  Josh is very grateful to his bandmates for helping him give the gift of music to his dad once again this year. His dad has alwasy supported him with his music, from the time he was a little kid, and is very proud of his musical skills to this day. We hope you enjoy listening to this
