Dear Reader, 

Not all songs must exist on the grid. This song has no click track and therefore, it breathes. As a result, nothing was quantized. It's real playing and real performances. I hope that you can hear it. 

Of course,  the song was multitracked (I played and sang everything, so it had to be) and since there was no grid, I had to listen and react to make it gel.  I hope you consider what I did a success. 

Thanks as always for coming back to listen to more of my music. In the past four years I have produced more than 140 original music videos and I have gained 800 subscribers. This is only the beginning. I have much more music to write, arrange and produce, and I am thankful for every listen. 

Respectfully,

This classic Grateful Dead song has been a favorite of JJ's since his playing in a bar band days, decades ago. Therefore, he decided to come up with a perfect, lively skeleton on his piano for us to use for it, and shared it with us. Josh, being a Deadhead as well, jumped on the chance to play Phil's part on his four string fretless bass. Ken, who isn't necessarily a Deadhead, but can play most anything, jumped on with his driving drums around the same time as Josh added his bass line, as they went back and forth a few times before getting the rhythm section settled. 
  Stephen came along next with his cunning rhythm guitar, follow closely by his solo for the solo section. JJ added his solo for that section right after Stephen had laid his part down. Then we turned it over to James to add his rich, accent-drenched vocals. 
  When we had all the parts down, we turned it over to James (or Stephen) to produce and mix for us, which he did in expert fashion.
  This song was a lot of fun for the Deadheads in the band and non-Deadheads alike to record. This is also the second collaboration done by James and the Eclectic Collective, and we all enjoyed having him on this project.
  We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Lyrics:

(Chorus)
Extra ordinary—-holler if you hear me
Cause Anything goes—-Anything goes
Ask Jane ———-first name Mary
Fact—— fiction ———or theory
Yeah——Anything goes—-Anything goes

Anything goes with the beat and the rhythm
don’t worry about the verses ——got ya ——gonna kill em
extra ordinary ——-level up when you——hear me
a new dish in the menu——
like DoorDash—- I’ll bring you
——-different flavors——-different styles——
Keep it versatile

Negative vibe——no——never
jamming to the groove——
a routine endeavor
Beatz bumping—— fist pumping
they all want more ——give it up, still on top
I’ve got that high score ———————-
I’ve got that high score

energy and focus makes me the Dopest ——
I’m not bragging ——but hope you know this
:adds to my opus
———-this adds to my opus

the plan relentless make more and spend less
that’s part ———-of my checklist—-
dividing my——-check less
bottom line ——specialist
who can —-contest this ——

delivering ——-pure freshness—-
told you—— don’t stress this
level up ———to —-the—A-list ———
momentum———- contagious

Straight to the top, no time to delay
Let your body rock, got my mind on replay
Building empires, from rhymes to paper
Every bar a brick———-, and I’m stacking skyscrapers

Always hustling——always hustling
the grind never cease
Flow so cold———-like a winter breeze

Never on the sideline———gold standard —brilliance
Sip it down —like fine wine——perfecting my resilience
Get yours ——-I’ll get mine—-beats in my veins
Riding high naturally——has always ——-been the aim,
And ain’t no stopping ———And ain’t no stopping
—————Stopping these gains

Negative vibe——no——never
jamming to the groove——
a routine endeavor
Beatz bumping—— fist pumping
they all want more ——give it up, still on top
I’ve got that high score ———————-
I’ve got that high score

Cast of Characters:

J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ, electric piano, and seed idea
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – electric guitar, production, and mix
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– electric guitar
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – 4-string fretless bass
The Eclectic Collective -- composition
 
This song started with JJ during one of his late Saturday night composition sessions, where he came up with the idea on his synth. He laid down some great organ and electric piano for the rest of us to play with. Ken was first up with his lively, raucous drums. He and Josh did their back and forth with the rhythm section until it was solid, though. Then Stephen laid in his dirty, rawkin' rhythm guitar to give it an extra foundation. Finally, Tez put the icing on the cake with his monster soloing throughout. 
  Of course, every great song needs a great producer. In this case, Tez did the honors in a very expert manner. We wanted Stephen (Texmex Shaman) on this, too, of course, but he is just now getting settled into his new abode, and was in flux while we were making this one. He'll be back with The Eclectic Collective next week, though. 
  This is an example of Eclectic Collective teamwork. It came together relatively quickly, which means we were all having fun doing it. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Composer/Songwriter. Proficient performer of piano, bass guitar, double bass, cello, 6 string , 12 string , drums, triangle (shall I include tambourine too?🤣), vocals, lyrics. 99% of the tracks on this page are original songs. None of my performances on any of my tracks, whether solo work, or collaboration, have any editing whatsoever. Effects and equalization? Of course! But no editing, no software, etc. Quite a substantial amount of these tracks are with The Eclectic Collective. We are like family and have been playing together on a daily basis since approximately March of 2022 as the Eclectic Collective. Before the band bore it's name Eclectic Collective; Josh, Ken, Stephen, Tez, and  CG Maness were doing some occasional collabs. At any given time we are all simultaneously working on about 15 different songs. And when we feel they are done cooking in the oven we release them.  We release a song every week on Fridays at 4AM UTC
