I always got my blues second hand. By that I mean by artists that studied the old blues guys and developed their own blues. So I went back and looked at Robert Johnson and picked "Kind Hearted Woman Blues" and wrote my own lyrics to it. This turned out to be a lot harder than I had imagined. Not a good finger picker made this a big challenge and took me some time to be proficient enough (just enough) to record.
It's somewhat raw, but I tried to honor Mr. Johnson as best I could. Hope you enjoy.
My version relates to homelessness.
The picture is from Newsweek.

Lyrics:
Never met dad, wasn’t there, he wasn’t there when I was born.
	Never met him.
Heard he left my mom, when she needed him most.	That’s when he left her
Momma worked three jobs 
Just to make ends meet.	Yes she did.

Have a little sister, a little sister, haven’t seen her in 15 years.
	And that’s a long time.
Always think about her, but she lives too far to visit. Oh I miss her so.
Heard she’s married with two kids.
Hope her husband treats her well.  Yes I do.

<Chorus>
Been down on my luck, since the day I was born. I’ve had it tough.
I’ve been down on my luck, since the day I was born. The very first day
Chicken soup to warm my heart,
A shot of whiskey soothes my mind.  Yes it does.

Work the streets all day, for some change to get me by. Work all day.
People walk right by, never even bother with me, like I’m an invisible man.
Make due with what I have,
Every day is just another day.  Same old thing.

Life in the streets, mostly by myself, can be a lonley and scary place.	Oh yes it can.
I do what I want, noone to order me around, telling me what to do.
Good days and bad days,
Wouldn’t have it any other way.  No sir no.

<Chorus>

Outro:
Sometimes I wish I’d done better, and made a different life.
	Maybe done better.
But then I realize, this is where I belong. This is my place.
Should you pass me by.
Help out and stay to chat, or at least say hello.  Please do.

Chicken Soup and a Shot of Whiskey

As a composer, I am fortunate to have collaborated with incredibly talented artists from SoundCloud. This includes my latest album with the truly extraordinary soprano Maribel Villarroel and the masterful arranger and pianist René Calderón for 'Canciones para Pablo Neruda.' These songs are based on the poems of the great Pablo Neruda, and permission has been granted by the Pablo Neruda Foundation. Please listen, Maribel is a tour de force and her and René's interpretation of Neruda and these songs is so heartfelt. I am so deeply moved and appreciative of their artistry.

Other albums are 'Entre Jupiter y Marte,' and 'Reflections.' The remarkable tenor Ricardo Tamura, accompanied by the accomplished pianist Lucy Arner, performed 'Entre Jupiter y Marte'. Ricardo and Lucy are both amazing. These songs were co-written with the acclaimed author Antonio Skarmeta, which is my most special and dear honor. 'Reflections' is a collection of my earlier works that were wonderfully interpreted by the gifted pianist Javier Gonzales.

Additionally, these albums are accompanied by musical scorebooks filled with beautiful art, created by great Chilean, American, and Japanese artists. These books, with the same titles as the albums, are available on Amazon.com.  'Canciones para Pablo Neruda" has been registered with the Ministerio de las Culturas, las Artes y el Patrimonio de Chile.

Another special collaboration among many is with Paul-Maurice Roche, the incredible pianist and composer.  Thank you for taking a song to new levels of nuance and emotion.

I compose all the time, so there are many other songs here. Thank you for your support!

Two of my albums appear on Pandora Radio: "Entre Jupiter y Marte" and "Reflections". "Entre Jupiter y Marte" was performed by the incredible tenor Ricardo Tamura, and the accomplished pianist Lucy Arner. "Reflections" features the talented pianist Javier Gonzales.

I've been busy working with a band. But I will post something really soon. 
This is a great music community that supports  and encourages others. I urge you to do the same for your fellow artists.
I thank everybody for your precious time.  It means a lot to me.
If you have a moment or two, listen to some tracks, leave a message  and please repost if you like. After all, music is meant to be heard.  Thank you for dropping in.

All the nickels and dimes I make on my songs will go to children charities (tbd).  Thank you for your support.

I love listening to tracks on SC and will certainly repost, but I only repost what I actually listen to.
Influences or artists I simply really like.
Jeff Beck, David Gilmore, Johnny Winter, Rory Gallagher, Adrian Belew, Mark Farner, SRV, Hendrix, Steve Vai, and the list goes on.

I'm almost back...

After the death of a loved one, I found myself unable to play music... so I opened a small attic room deep in my unbalanced mind and played other types of instruments... it had to happen...

So here's a track, "ATTIC ROOM" (37 minutes), composed and produced, bringing together 10 very different and surprising tracks... I feel like I was in another dimension for a while, and I hope you enjoy it.
Have a great listen. Thank you.
Pier WILL


Me voici presque de retour...
Après le décès de l'un de mes proches, je me suis retrouvé dans l'incapacité de jouer de la musique... alors j'ai ouvert une petite chambre mansardée tout au fond de mon esprit en déséquilibre et j'ai joué sur d'autres types d'instruments... il fallait que cela se réalise...

Voici donc un titre "ATTIC ROOM" (37minutes) composé et réalisé rassemblant 10 titres tellement différents et surprenants... je pense avoir été dans une autre dimension pendant un certain temps et j'espère que vous allez apprécier.
Très bonne écoute à vous. Merci
Pier WILL
