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.

How Long Will I Love You

I think this track started 2 years ago. I remember talking about the vision with Jamie on the phone and then Jamie sent me a bunch of stems to choose from. I chose the standing bass and recorded my verse with a 90’s vibe in mind. I sent the track over to Russell to add some guitars, he sent that funk rock intro and riff back, and then I don’t know what happened after that? A bunch of other songs got made and the vision for this track expanded to include cutting my second verse and bringing Jon Lock in on vocals. Then the song sat again. Jon and I even started and completed And So You Say and Training Day after we had already got this song started. Since this track was visioned to be part of the first song on the set with Training Day, eventually it had to be completed. Wou-Wou then join in with his synths, rhythm guitar over Jon’s part, and some additional guitar over the first section. This gave the track the final fire it needed and Russell mixed and mastered it like a champ!

As always, massive thanks to Wou-Wou and Russell who have been regular collaborators on so many projects, on SoundCloud, Facebook, and Bandcamp. Wou and Russell will always be the core of my musical team. Thanks for being great friends! 
Big thanks also to Jon, who I have worked with on 3 songs now, with 2 more in the works already! 
And thanks to Jamie for all his patience, support, and for the completion of our second project together!   

This song goes out to all the music nerds, appreciators, and lovers with strong opinions. Keep those conversations going. I spent many, many years, going to the record store several times a week, hanging and talking with the staff, some who became good friends.

Lyrics 

Everything changes 
Nothing stays the same 
I used to hate it when my people would say it's a shame 
Stating that the games gone lame 
Claiming that today the music is wack 
At times I would refrain and take a step back
But most of the time I would counter attack 
Back in the day, we would say, Clever repartee 
When we were clowning around 
But now a days we taking the things a bit more serious 
Or maybe it's just me, see 
I ain't playing around as much as I used to be 
Conversations at a minimal 
It's not that I'm more critical or cynical 
It's that I am a more apathetic individual
I  just don't care 
Call me hypocritical 
I be like that's fair 
Yo
What happened to all the innovators, rhyme slayers, originality generators
You know
There really all still there
Back in the days we had to dig in the crates
Looking for the lessor known greats
I guess that's still the way it operates 
Hates a narrow minded state 
And It take effort to educate
So 
I’ma stay open and keep on diggin’ 
Vibin' on the sounds that I be hearin’ 
Yea 
And you know it's like that 
And you know and you know and you know it's like that 
Keep keep on, keep keep on
keep keep keep on

And you know it’s like that

Here comes the backup plan
The man without a name
Don’t want to be no star
Just musical acclaim 
Brush back those famous hats like children in the street
I’m gonna sing a bit while Couch King cracks the beat
Whoa baby now shake
Like momma told you now
Whoa baby now shake
Like this was made for
This is a slice of funk
USDA prime
Let it get to your head
You will feel fine
Poetry in motion
Images in time
Back beats and refined commotion 
Aged like fine wine 

Any you know it’s like that

Jamie Rhind, Jon Lock, Wou-Wou, Russell & the Couch King - You Know (It's Like That)

This is a new rendition of the song I wrote and recorded about twenty years ago. The original is a solo vocal/piano recording in one take without overdubs or editing. I posted it on my You Tube channel  but I thought its 8 minute length was too long to burden Sound Cloud listeners with. For this shorter new rendition I sampled piano and vocal parts from the original  to add additional piano and vocal layers to the song.
The lyrics : relate to the observations by a fictional bartender who notices
many barflies (regular customers) treat bartenders like  full-time "substitute psychologists". 
Lyrics:
I'm your bartender. 
Welcome all you barflies. Let's give cheers to this Friday night.
You made it through another work week, baby
and I hope you are feeling alright.

Wash away your blues... and become numb...and don't think of reality
Become a barfly baby...and watch out for what you see

C'mon, won't you have a good time?
I know that you'll feel alright
Because when it's all over, I'm gonna poor you a shot and a drink...
and it will make you think I'm a part-time bartender
But, I'm really a full-time shrink
[instrumental bridge]

I know about your life I know just about everything
Because every night you make your emotions sing to me
...and if you knew...and I need to prove this to you
Let me introduce you, baby to barflies who come through

In the back, stands Al Maloney
He says he "cant afford the alimony" (he bought a new Rolls Royce)

Next to you, stands Susan
She comes here for romance
But she's always boozn' while cruisin'
and never gets her chance

C'mon...won't you have a good time?
I know that you'll feel alright
Because I'm gonna poor you a shot and a drink
and it'll make you think I'm a part-time bartender
But, I'm really a full-time shrink

I'm your bartender
The lovers are Dave and Hue..."Bartender"..."Bartender"
But all they ever seem to do is argue

Oh, here comes a newcomer...really out to dress!
Why don't you turn to him...and try to confess
You are now a barfly, baby...
and you don't really know what to feel

C'mon, won't you have a good time?
I know that you'll feel alright
Because when it's all over I'm gonna poor me a shot and a drink...
and it makes me think...a shot and a drink...and it makes me think...
a shot and a drink...and it makes you think

I'm a part-time bartender
But I feel like... I'm a part-time bartender
but they see me like I'm a part-time bartender
But they treat me like  their full-time shrink.

This is my cousin, David Conover's take on the song.. Bruce

jeff tweedy’s bio tried hard to review tunes without capturing whom the song might sound like. so, in that honor here’s my attempt. 

go go go then stop slow and low cookin’ on a recently outlawed 4 burner gas stove. the stock pot has boiling pasta fagioli on the front burner; a low slow rolling boil. simmering on the back burner is honey-dripped sauce soon to be ladled over braised short ribs. paired with a 69 year old black licorice liqueur.

Disinfect 2020

Bagatell F-dur

I know a wise man, who has spent his life climbing the highest peaks of this world.
After each return from his travels, I would ask him: "Where is the place with the most beautiful scenery? ’’
And he would say, ’My brother! Open your eyes and look around, then you'll see one of those. ‘’
This man, whom I am proud to know, is my friend Stéphane T.

Stéphane, Tell Us About Your Last Trip

I really wanted to say something about 2020, but there's nothing I could say that you haven't heard or thought yourselves already.

thanks for listening. you're good kids.

half life

My arrangement of this traditional Irish ballad which translates as 'The Cursed Kerryman" and sung so beautifully by  Seamus O Beaglaoich and others.  
I've tried hard not to smother the lovely melody and let the Taran guitar do the singing... Tuning is DADGAD

An Ciarraioch Mallaithe

Identità.

Carne tremula, pulsante, nella quiete dell'alba della vita.

Da 80 a 100bpm la melodia flebile di un carillon scorre cheta e cadenzata nell'alveo del torrente in procinto di muovere i primi passi. Limpida acqua in cui ci si specchia per la prima volta. Primo incomprensibile affacciarsi all'esistenza. Soavi vagiti nel candore ovattato. Fioco vocio maturo al risveglio del germoglio. Inconsolabile e straziante nenia nella vellutata morsa dell'esistenza. Preliminare assorbimento del domestico focolare.

Da 70 a 120bpm mi sveglio al mattino portandomi un Welsh qualunque nel cesso. ll mondo circostante mi penetra. Primi gemiti di piacere e schifo. Odore di sborra appiccicosa e colante. Tessuti molli palpitanti. Mozziconi di sigaretta sparsi tra la mia stanza e il gabinetto. Primo orgasmo. Cowboys from hell. Mi faccio rossa come una che mi sta sul cazzo. Rock'n'roll baby. Un perizoma fa capolino da un paio di jeans dismessi. Fuori di casa. Dentro casa. Fuori di casa ancora. Di cosa dà la sborra? Bevo l'infinito e lo sbocco nell'orinatoio della scuola. Perché sei pallida? Non sto bene. Bacio un tizio che non conosco. Bacio un'amica, ma non provo nulla. Scelgo. Torno a riattaccarmi al cazzo. Dove sono finiti tutti quei soldi? Ho bevuto un Margarita. Mura interiori insonorizzate. Una batteria si esercita sui 4/4.

Quanto é profonda la mia vagina?

Da 60 a 90bpm il processo di formazione dell'identità, giunto ormai al suo apice massimo, inizia la sua decelerazione e recessione. L'identità già precostituita si interfaccia ora alle multiformi maschere sociali. Urla silenziose in un sempre più labile intreccio relazionale scandito da momenti di introspezione e momenti di ulteriore ascesa. Come un eremita alla ricerca della sua meta ideale e del suo sé più profondo assistiamo ad un progredire della presa di coscienza. Elegante e musicale assioma.

What a wonderful world?

And a big thumbs up to SoundCloud and the SoundCloud community, and so many friends who have joined me to create.  Thank you all.

There is so much talent and variety here, and most of the people are pretty cool too. I love being part of this community. Listening to your music and being heard in return is enough.

Still reading? OK I'm gonna muse a bit. It's hard to fully convey how much this forum has meant to me. There are people I've never met that feel very much like old friends -- and in a very real way they are.
If I follow someone I make every effort to listen to and support their efforts. It's certainly not a transactional relationship but I do tend to limit my follows to people who engage in mutual listening and engagement.
