Extraordinary track, Jean-Michel!!  A delight to for the ears!!

Différent, surprenant, on se laisse volontiers emporter,j'aime bien tes "riffs de voix" qui font le lien entre les différentes "parties " pala pala .... !

genius writing and performing..Thank YOU man. i am immesurable Blest by what you release

incredibly magnetic chorus and that Vocal...  oli vey! ;)  tis wondrous Fun! :)

'Just' ?... hahah...non... C'est Tres Bon! Bravo Jean-Michel.

:) This is fantastic - those voices are heavenly :)

I created second account, couple days back, for even more support and to share some random acts of impromptu, raw cuts and other inconsistent "nonsense", like the first example of it :)

Thanks everyone, and everyone who has discovered and supported it already! Yes, the name is from the "Art of Noise" band, which is clearly shines in my influences list :)  As artwork spells, I cannot do nothing. Otherwise, when done with it, I play, like, comment and collect SC tracks into list for future repost :) 

Like this one, which is my average day of meeting new music, re-listening fave works, cycling thru the artists I love to listen, meeting new friends, more new songs... My work blessed me with some time to listen while I'm working (do I ever?) :) No particular "theme" in the playlist other when random awesomeness of pure inspiration. Seriously, this is the way I collected this one. Just today/yesrerday listens. Usually takes me months, how come it does sound cool? So much talent, I know! The list does sound like it is "madness-overture", because it is fancy crazy! Thanks for inspiration! 

See you all in the asylum in Heaven. If there is one (right?) ;)  .... later, because now I .... 

Play. Like, Repost.
Sam.

TRACK NOTES
I lived in Nashville, chasing the songwriting dream for 13 years with a bunch of mad friends also not from there. I got a few of my songs cut by independent artists. I watched the most talented writers I knew not have any success, because their amazing songs didn't fit the stiff, phony formula wanted by the so-called "country" music at the end of the century, or its politics. This song isn't about me, but it's a true story, adapted for fiction, and it was damn fun to write and record.

CREDITS
Kathy Burkly: drums
Kenny Owens: bass
Mark Robinson: lead electric guitar
Kearns: vocal and acoustic guitar

LYRICS
when David came to town
his trunk was full of songs
songs about goodbyes and Southern Belles
but not about Michelle

she had come before
to open up the door
and find a home where David’s dreams could grow
not far from Music Row

and you might dodge the blues
but this town will reach you,
if you don’t know how to lose
Nashville will teach you

he walked into a club
and saw a famous man
singin’ with a whiskey in his hand
in front of all his fans

and when that man was through
he smiled and walked into
the arms of Michelle beside the bar
and they were like two shooting stars…

and you might dodge the blues
but this town will reach you,
if you don’t know how to lose
Nashville will teach you

now David’s greatest song
said goodbye to Michelle
but the boys on Music Row said “That won’t sell”
- like they can always tell

Michelle greets the dawn
with all her make-up on
and a trace of cocaine between the lines
some writer left behind…

and you might dodge the blues
but this town will reach you,
if you don’t know how to lose
Nashville will teach you


Nashville Will Teach You

Antony and The Johnsons - Afraid (Nico)

My interpretation of "five-five-FIVE", the music written by Frank Zappa(from his album "Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar" released in 1981). Me played all instruments here - covered by ears (Guitars, Bass & Drums - All were done in Studio-live recording >> more info below). Hope you enjoy!!

This music might be very unusual for a rock guitarist in terms of its rhythms and chords. The intro riff begins with  5/8 - 5/8 - 5/4  (hence its title - in their original title, lower-case implies 5/8 part and capital letter implies 5/4), determined by the positioning of 9th chord, using D & G open strings as pedal points, and continues to the solo section with 5/4- 5/8 (most of the phrases are not repeated in those sequences except bass pedal-notes though...even most of kicks don't follow them).
Besides, as Mr. Zappa always did for his recordings, the backing guitars have some extra layerings made by overdubs, which were difficult for me to analyze (thus difficult to use it as a guide with which I would play the rhythm sections or lead guitar along)...

Well, it's probably a bit naive to say but I've seldom wanted to cover his music except a few pieces like this 'guitar-oriented' one, even though I used to listen to some of his albums as low-teens (and in years later via experiencing Steve Vai's music - some of you might know that he was the one of guys who transcribed Zappa's guitar impros into the scores). 
While one day (about 8 months ago) one guy asked me if I could play the guitar for this music...he also said that he would do the drums (by programming) and do some own arrangements with his keyboards...but this has never been realized whereas I'd already made the guitar tracks(riffs, lead and bass) very shortly after that...ya, that occasion broke-up in the air...
I didn't want to throw away what I made though...so tried to record the live drums and backing guitars played myself. But then, WHAT THE HECK the drums were here!!!  It was crazy hard drumming. 
...respect Mr. Colaiuta a lot. I would say they were difficult than the lead guitar (that was actually the easiest part for me). Anyway, I've practiced them for quite a while and finally completed the recording...don't think that I made the justice though I enjoyed learning the deviation from even beats:) 
Thanks for listening and reading.

[Cover]
- Since the original instruments marked with [*] above were apparently indiscernible to me even though they were credited on the album, I made this cover only with 3 Guitars(one lead + two backings), one Bass and Drum-kit(No keybords, no percussion, less number of rhythm guitars)- played and recorded in the studio except below [**]. 
- Lead Guitar (Intro Riff & Solo): Fender Japan Strat customized w/ DiMarzio Hum-bucking +Analog Effectors (Wah & Volume pedals to narrow FQ range, to have feedback distortion, or for booster-use / Stereo-Echo or Delay). 
- Rhythm Guitars (Intro Riff & Backings): Fender USA Strat +Analog Effectors (Phaser & Chorus).
- All of these guitars' effects were applied (anterior-use) in additon to the distortion & reverb of Amps (Marshall).
- Drums : Tama Acoustic Drum-kit & Zildjian Cymbals w/6 mics + Yamaha Electric Drum-kit for extra Hi-Toms**(that the acoustic kit doesn't have) 
- Bass: Fender Precision Bass w/Analog Effectors(Compressor, Flanger & partially Phaser). 
- Only the small overdubbing of [**], minor retouch on Drum tracks (to remove the interference between Hi-hat & Crash), and Mixing were done with DAW.

Five-five-FIVE - Frank Zappa Cover

"Driven By Dirt" is the 4th in the series of my Lee (Jack Jones) Lucas Project of songs and tunes done with my new toys I got last year. This particular song is by no means new apart from being new to Soundcloud, and is one I wrote back in March 2014 on my acoustic guitar, and even posted a live version of me playing it back then on my YouTube channel here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uks8Q4yif2c

I never really liked the acoustic version, but felt it would be good to do a studio version of it with the new toys, and I have to say it's benefited and sounds much better for it I feel. So much so I certainly think it's the best song I have done in this series so far. 

The song as always has been made as a free digital download @ Bandcamp and can be had here: https://leelucas.bandcamp.com/track/driven-by-dirt

Driven By Dirt (Words & Music By Lee Lucas)

Lee Lucas - Vocals - Electric Guitar - Bass Guitar - Played Fills & Drum Machine - Artwork & Production.

Pickup Trucks provided by Freesounds.org.

The lyrics are as follows:

Wake up every morning
to a rainy day
things don't get much better
living on your own this way

Yeah life can sure be hard at times
kicks you in the butt
especially as far as women's concerned
yeah I'm all out of luck

(Chorus)
My baby left me
on that open road
for a driver in a pickup truck
she shot off
down that dirty road

Well things could of been much better
if I made the right choice
but my heart got the better
I never listened to advice

(repeat chorus/lead break)

Well there are many lessons to be learned here
and one will always get burned
I suppose it's happened to so many
when their lives are driven by dirt

(repeat chorus/add lib)

Please find time to leave comments to which are always very well appreciated and many thanks for listening.

The Transfiguration : Part 1 : An Air of Mystery
Napier's Bones, January 2016

The first complete track from "The Transfiguration", a 24 min suite telling of a paranormal investigator eager to debunk another folkloric legend for the benefit of his eager TV audience.
Ratings pressure from other, more spectacular, ghost-hunting shows  leads to a compromise between his scientific rigour and the need for dramatic programming.

The ruined Holy Trinity Church of Buckfastleigh, Devon, is the location for his latest assignment : to find evidence relating to the infamous Squire Richard Cabell...
Seventeenth Century Schizoid Man.

Are You Sitting Comfortably?
Then we'll begin.

----------------
1. An Air of Mystery
 
Another week, a new assignment
Ratings up with every phantom found
Goodbye kiss then onto Devon roads
Such a Happy Haunting Ground

Another well-loved ancient story
Handed down through history
Like Wistman's Wood, the Hand of Glory
They cling to make-believe

	Discarding age-old superstition
	On camera captured in full view 

Network :        "If it's there, it's on air"

Darting by the river, I see the ruined church in silhouette
So it's Squire Cabell, his spectral hounds and mausoleum glowing red
Sensors all around the tomb, remote connect all seeing eyes
Rational sights you can believe, midnight transmission time

	Presenting only what I find
	The viewers making up their minds 
Network :       "Success, Speaks for itself"

A air of mystery, goes a long way
A hint of danger, goes a long way
A little guidance, goes a long way
And who needs certainty? They all prefer it to be this way....

Jamn' my Fender Strat the other day, found some nice chords progression. Built something around it same day, using LogicX on Mac. Unrefined and unpolished playing, guys. Layered bass, rhythm and played impromptu solo over. I dug up the rack from a hard-drive, so this couple years recording comes as-is, no refinments. Contains pure inspiration with the mistakes provided :)   Juss having some fun...  :D

Thank you for all for the AMAZING feedback here - Sam PROCK. 

Check out the version, in which Roger played his blessing guitar over this track, the next day  :)))) Appreciate my friend!

"Praeditos" word root in latin-
praeditus (Latin)
Adjective- 'endowed, gifted, provided with, possessed of", so the slang for the term is "A Little Possessed ". HAHA! Language does not always translate perfectly.

The "Jew's Harp" instrument is considered to be one of the oldest musical instruments in the world;  a musician apparently playing it can be seen in a Chinese drawing from the 4th century BC.  This instrument is native to Asia and used in all tribes of Turkic peoples in Asia, among whom it is variously referred to as a temir komuz (literally, iron komuz), agiz komuzu (literally, mouth komuz), gubuz or dorm.

KONOKUNOK is a Hungarian musician who I have known for a few years. Although I have featured him on my radio show, this is our first time working together on a track. 
I had an intensely fun time rerouting his harp through my wah pedal and getting all tripped out with this ancient instrument. 
@discratebye Check out Gyula Bódis, his music is truly amazing, ancient yet very modern in its usage. A True Talent!

cheers

Its not a dream 
it is just what you think
there are eyes 
in those shadows
They lie in wait
as if you can not see
but they are only shadows
but they are only shadows

right now time to keep you head clear
right now time to keep you head clear
right now time to keep you head clear
right now time to keep you head clear
