OUT OF THE BOX / EILEEN OLSEN - Madness MIX

Missed the sound of my beautiful harpsichord and wanted to get back to my  symphonic meets  beats  phase  lately. As I put this together I am just reminiscent of the winter wonderland outside...

Electric Winter Sonnet

In this track I used pedal steel guitar, acoustic guitar, water drums, synth pad, electric bass and bell tree.
Thank you for listening !

Wild Colorado

Cats think that humans are big cats.

My cat runs away as soon as a human comes. 
Catch me. If you're a cat.

Catch me if you are a cat

Shirley Temple Cover🍭

I’ve thrown away my toys
Even my drum and train
I wanna make some noise
With real live aeroplanes
Some day I’m gonna fly
I’ll be a pilot too

And when I do, how would you like to be my crew?
On the good ship lollipop
It’s a sweet trip to a candy shop where bonbons play on the sunny beach of peppermint bay
Lemonade stands everywhere
Cracker Jack bands fill the air
And there you are are …happy-landing on a chocolate bar
See the sugar bowl do the tootsie roll * …eat the big bad devils food cake
If you eat too much yer gonna get a tummy ache

On the good ship lollipop….
In to bed you hop
And dream away
On the hood ship lollipop
It’s a sweet trip…..

Ghost Ship

On a cool bright evening
in the middle of May
He was sittin' all alone 
just waiting beside the train

And she left one morning
on the northbound line
on the run from what her life became 
and the ones who robbed her blind

But he wasn't waitin' for her
and he couldn't read minds
and she wasn't heading anywhere
in particular that time

And at first they never noticed it
But on the second look they did
and as they talked he took the chance 
to say all the words he'd never said

He said, "I'll take you out tomorrow
it's just a drive away from home.
But if you fall in love with me again
you will never be fine."

She said "she's only flyin solo."
Since he left her all alone
And if she fell in love with him
He could never ask why
He could never ask why
He could never ask why

And at times you feel the world turn
when you stand real still
And you fumble for the words you need
to describe the way it feels

And the way it feels is often the way 
it'll keep you awake at night
If you chase the ghosts that haunt your dreams
then you'll never see the light

Cause the light is right before you
if you care to turn it on
And you could pull back on the darkness
if you can't tell him that he's wrong

And you turn the light and tear the 
ticket up that's in your hand
Walkin' off into the sunset 
in a life that lies ahead

She said she's, "never gonna go home."
and, "let's runaway tonight."
And when she fell in love with him again
he could never ask why

He said "that they could leave tomorrow
to anywhere that they could fly."
And when she fell in love with him before
He didn't need to know why
He didn't need to know why
He didn't need to know why

She said, "don't worry about tomorrow,
it's all the way across the night.
Cause if you fall in love with me again
you will never be fine."

He said that, "I could handle myself,
and don't worry if I'm right,
because I fell in love with you 
the minute you came into my sight."
You came into my sight
You came into my sight

Longing (Remix)

きょうは夕陽野郎

From the "folk group" The Sandy Hill Exchange in the late 60's to the current day, playing acoustic guitar has been one of the driving forces in Fred's life.

While there were times early on when family and work necessarily took a front seat, a guitar was never far away and at the ready when the time of day, or a day in the week seemed best for practice and composing.

Now retired and with family on their own, Fred's guitar work draws from nature, personal experiences and inspiration from other great musicians; his music emerging as original fingerstyle instrumental tunes. Described by some as "little poems" of song.... often with unique titles, which add to the musical prose of each piece. Feel free to click on the picture for each track and there may be more details on the origins of the song title, guitar used, tuning, etc. 

Casting a wide exposure through Soundcloud, Fred now has over 21 thousand "plays" on his site as folks from countries world wide are introduced to his music and guitar style. Music also on Spotify:

Thanks for listening, joining in the journey, and I hope you enjoy these tracks!
