Gotta give it up again for the superb Harry Jacobson and Daniele Petrocchi.  Their guitar and bass playing steal the show on our fusion original, Street Life.  Harry created and plays his chromatic octave theme on the synth guitar and Daniele plays down below with his beautiful sound and taste.  Brilliant guitar playing from each.  Follow their superb galleries:

Mask up and be well.  We gotta get through this.  Get your shots as soon as you can.

Check out Stephan Lipinski (Pinner) on this soon to be released fusion tribute to Miles Davis.  Pinner is an outstanding fusion electric guitarist who grew up in the suburbs of New York, moved outside of Philadelphia now, and who has his instrument down and then some.  An exceptional player who brings a similar angular and harmonic approach to improvisation that John Scofield did with Miles back in the '80s.   Check out Pinner's gallery here on SC at https://soundcloud.com/pinner - wonderful music for sure.  We're hoping you enjoy this small part of a larger track that is coming your way shortly.

Thanks as always for your time listening, your comments and your shares.  

Miles Styles - with Stephan "Pinner" Lipinski - guitar

Soft keys, low horns, morning haze.
Snap. Sip. Sunlight hits the face.

Sheets still warm, I stretch in time,
Clock keeps hush, rhythm’s mine.
Yesterday’s doubt slid off my skin,
Confidence curls where dreams begin.
A slow riff under my breath,
Mood so good it scares the stress.
Every pore hums—yeah, that’s bliss,
I woke up like this.

I woke up looking like this, no pretense, no fix.
Just a groove, just a glow, just this.
I woke up looking like this

Trumpet answers what my soul said,
Brushes whisper, I nod my head.
Coffee swirl, mirror grin,
Every scar now dressed in gin.
The world outside still half-asleep,
But my beat runs twelve feet deep.
Don’t call it luck, call it grace—
That’s the truth I wear on my face.

I woke up looking like this, golden tone, pure kiss.
Unlearned fear, kept the bliss.
I woke up looking like this

Mmm… listen—
Every woman, every man,
has a morning they finally stand.
No crown, no makeup,
just breath and rhythm waking up.
Say it with me slow:
I woke up like this.

How’d you wake up?
Like this.
How’d you shine so sweet?
Like this.
What’s that groove beneath your skin?
I been livin’, I been freein’.
I woke up like this.

Bass walks out, horns sigh,
one last brush, one long high.
Morning closes with a kiss—
I woke up looking like this.

I woke up like this (Jazz R&B reload)

Jazz standards with a Neo-Soul vibe. Sometimes chill is nice.

@bananasutra lyrics:

[Intro]
Hi, my name is… hi, my name is… who? Not Celine Dion

[Verse]
Hi, my name is… hi, my name is… who? Not Celine Dion
Not French, not American, silly gypsy femme de la belle vie
Camus said it’s absurd, but wait what? who? Woohoo woman
Who knows who… how? What? When?

[Chorus]
Birthdays are overrated, half a century celebrated
But who knows my name is who? Not Celine Dion!

[Break]
[Instrumental: Funky guitar and jazz horns]

[Verse 2]
Dancing through life, a kaleidoscope dream
Not fitting the mold, not part of the scheme
Laughing at the world, with a wink and a grin
Who knows my name? I’m not fitting in

[Pre-Chorus]
Whirling and twirling in a psychedelic haze
Life’s a crazy ride, let’s enjoy the maze

[Chorus]
Birthdays are overrated, half a century celebrated
But who knows my name is who? Not Celine Dion!

[Bridge]
Hi, my name is… hi, my name is… who? Not Celine Dion
Living absurdly, a free-spirited queen
Not French, not American, just somewhere in between

[Verse 3]
Camus said it’s absurd, so let’s dance in the street
Life’s a mystery, isn’t that sweet?
Hi, my name is… hi, my name is… who? Not Celine Dion
In this wild ride, where do we belong?

[Chorus]
Birthdays are overrated, half a century celebrated
But who knows my name is who? Not Celine Dion!

[Outro]
Hi, my name is… hi, my name is… who? Not Celine Dion
Life’s a quirky song, let’s all sing along
Hi, my name is… hi, my name is… who? Not Celine Dion


[02] Hi, My Name Is (Not Céline Dion) - SHOWsutra Gipsy Fusion Trip Hop World LOFI

For those of you who haven't discovered Orlando "The Don" Lund, here's your opportunity.  Orlando is a serious pro, having built a career as a writer, multi instrumentalist and producer in London during the '90s Soul Funk era, leading and creating with some of the finest contemporary jazz and funk musicians in Europe.  You can hear many of their great tunes here at https://soundcloud.com/orlando-lund.  If you are into grooving music, almost no one does it better.

Orlando approached me about playing on a tune I had released here, What the Funk, quickly sending 5 tasty tracks to me - a solid grooving bass line, a congas line, two rhythm guitar tracks and a George Benson style guitar solo.  I've worked them all in here, adding them to all my keyboard parts, creating some sweet soul jazz for your listening pleasure.  Check out Orlando's wonderful Palma Groove Project recordings on his gallery - really special creations.  

We thank you as always for your generous listening time, for your comments and for your shares.

What The Funk - with Orlando "The Don" Lund

The funkiest guitar player on SoundCloud is BACK, with this grooving original, Can't Get Enough Of You.  Scotland's finest has teamed up with Germany's super funky slap bass marvel Mirko "Stringburner" Borach, creating what I can only say reminds me of one of the all time greatest tunes, Mountain's Mississippi Queen.  But Mountain never had a rhythm section playing with this much funk!  Ian's letting me do my thing on keyboards, and you can hear me soloing in the right channel, trying to hold my own over this nasty rocking blues.

Caged!

This song is based on an original idea by Jeff Buckley and Liz Fraser. Sadly it was never finished or properly recorded in his lifetime. Bethany and I thought that the song deserved to be completed and so we set out to do just that.

The full band version of this song can be found on Bethany's SC profile:

https://soundcloud.com/bethanygraceuk/all-flowers-in-time-bend-towards-the-sun

This version is the Acoustic Mix.

There were so many great performances from the musicians involved that we really thought it would be great to really hear the quieter instruments in their own setting. Not only does it give yet another take on the song but it also allows you to really hear the beautiful vocals once again.

We hope you enjoy it as much as we did making it.

MALIKA
POUSSÉE PAR LE VENT 
UN PIED L’AUTRE DEVANT 
AXÉE VERS LE LEVANT 
TOURNÉE VERS LE PRÉSENT

MARCHER DANS LA FORÊT
LE CHIEN AUX ABOIS ET LA BICHE AUX ARRÊTS 
PLEURER SON MINARET
OÙ IL EST OÙ IL EST L’INTÉRÊT IL EST OÙ ?

TOURNÉE VERS LE FUTUR 
TOUJOURS LA TENTER LA TENTER L’AVENTURE 
C’EST DANS TA NATURE
MALIKA ÇA J’EN SUIS SÛR

TENTER CE QUI TE TENTE
TOUJOURS TOUJOURS PARTANTE
AIMER CE QUI T’AIMANTE
DES RÊVES ET DES PROJETS SUR TA LISTE D’ATTENTE

MARCHER CONTRE LE VENT 
PORTÉE PAR LE COURANT 
NOSTALGIE NÉANT
DE L’AVANT MALIKA DE L’AVANT

MARCHER DANS LA FORÊT
LA BICHE AUX ABOIS HANNAH AUX AGUETS 
ET SE PERDRE EN REGRETS
IL EST OÙ IL EST OÙ L’INTÉRÊT IL EST OÙ ?

POUSSÉE PAR LE VENT 
PORTÉE PAR LE COURANT 
CONTRE LE CONTRE-COURANT 
DE L’AVANT MALIKA DE L’AVANT 

ÇA J’EN SUIS SÛR
IL EST OÙ ?

Can’t thank Leon enough for playing these gorgeous guitar parts on my song! He really brings it to life and is such a fabulous musician.  We hope you enjoy our second collaboration! 😊🎶🎤🎸🎼😍

Lyrics 
I was drawn to you
Like a moth to a flame
And I took to you
Like the sky takes the stars

One thing lead to another 
One thing lead me to you
One chance you gotta take it
Take me 
Don’t let me go...

Oh you call to me
Like the moon calls the ocean
I am drawn to you
Like the tide to the sand 

Chorus. 

Mmm mmm

One thing lead to another 
Like the moon calls the ocean...

ONE THING LEAD TO ANOTHER (with Leon Thorne on gorgeous guitars)

in the first - i wouldn’t have
i wouldn’t have held back

i wouldn’t have held back
i thought i had time
i thought i had time

its not too late
i thought i had time
its not too late

long embraces and hoping
sharing in something
warm embraces and open
sharing in something
sharing in something

could have been then
slips out in the comfort
could it be now?
if we made it
warm
again?

cause they’re ready now
if we made it
warm
cause they’re ready now

they’re ready now
sharing in something
slips out in the comfort
do it again
do it again, make it again!

make it again!

oh! oh! oh!

Build it up!

pass the passion
pass the calm!
