Devoid of Reality is reflective of most dreams, which when one wakes up from, simply don't make sense and are far from reality.
Headphones or some form of stereo will enhance the listening experience.
Music and lyrics by John.
That droning sound at :20 to :31 is me hitting a open A chord on my Schecter CET with the whammy bar pushed down and almost touching the strings and then slowly releasing the whammy bar. Thanks to the Floyd Rose system, the guitar stayed in tune all the way.

Lyrics

You look up to the sky and see it in flames
The ocean waters boiling there’s lava in the waves
The air thick with smoke you’re gasping just to breathe

Wake from your dream dazed and confused
While you slept your mind played tricks on you
Sitting in a cold sweat your soon realize that dreams are Devoid of Reality

Running hard from a threat you can’t see
Your heart races faster as you try to flee
Everything slow motion you’re tangled in a web

Wake from your dream dazed and confused
While you slept your mind played tricks on you
Sitting in a cold sweat your soon realize that dreams are Devoid of Reality

Wake from your dream dazed and confused
While you slept your mind played tricks on you
Sitting in a cold sweat your soon realize that dreams are Devoid of Reality

A mysterious sensation grabs hold of your senses
The world around you spiraling out of control
Falling from great heights no bottom in sight

Wake from your dream dazed and confused
While you slept your mind played tricks on you
Sitting in a cold sweat your soon realize that dreams are Devoid of Reality

Devoid of Reality

Devoid Of Reality

Based on collaborative song writing in the early 80s and a few studio projects over the years. We are reunited to create new projects after taken a longer break.

Update:
In the summer of 2022, my dear old friend Mick and longtime musical companion died of cancer.

I have agreed with him that I will continue to run our site in his spirit. Our amazing, unique music will live on forever.

Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
There′s more to the picture
Than meets the eye.
Hey hey, my my.*

*By Neil Young


Mick loved listening to Rory Gallagher, Ten Years After, David Lindley, Neil Young and Alan Stivell.
He let this wonderful music flow into our songs. 
So we gave our music a new genre, which we called "Desert Psycho Fusion Blues Rock".

Now retired from a life 'on the road' as a freelance keyboard player, I compose and record in my home studio, situated in the Carrick Hills in Southern Scotland. My music is mainly instrumental in nature and is a reflection of my life experience, sometimes real and sometimes imagined.
My influences are many and I have quite probably been shaped by listening to the very many "giants" of music, both players and composers. From classical to contemporary jazz and everything in between. My main instrument is the keyboard, whether that be piano, organ or synth. But I also play banjo, flute and percussion. I have a special relationship'with bass, whether upright or electric and use virtual and synth basses from numerous sources, but mainly Trilian by Spectrasonics.

You are facing the music from a music -nerd, -lover, -autodidact, -amateur (means lover :) ) and software engineer, who has actively listened to music for decades. I heard Led Zeppelin II, Paranoid, Aretha Now and Santana III, when they were released. 
Creativity is in my genes. I experience that Software, music, humour and drawing all are nourished by creativity.
My most active listener is me, myself, I :) … But be my guest.. I have a job and I don’t rely on making money by making music.
I like most genres, but when it gets trivial, I’m out! 
 I like Hard Rock, Fusion, Salsa, Reggae, Soul, Funk, Latin, Prog, Folk, World, Ambient, Ballads, Pop, Jazz, Bossa Nova, Country, Blue Grass, Classic, etc.
If it is hard it has to be hard for a reason. Please no sampled repetition, it hurts my brain :D !

Progressive Metal Guitarist, Drummer, Bassist, and Keyboardist.

I find it hard to communicate,sometimes only through the piano can I express what I truly feel. I love to write music for people who love to dream.
Thank you for taking the time to listen.
Kind regards.

The world around us is inexorably changing and all this is happening not without the help of the human race, the Earth is our home and now it is not just a big anthill in outer space, but the starting point of the mind, from here and into distant worlds.
