REVERBERATIONS ALL THROUGHOUT MY SOUL MY FRIEND

What a lovely gentle song. So nicely done Johnny.

this tugs at heart right from the start.  no poem intended.

amazing how the stories we tell ...and feel

This light and airy sound is gorgeous, your voice lilting on it’s sure and steady flow. The words do capture one’s identity and path within the universe, one’s relevance and wonderment. A gentle and thought provoking piece Johnny. Durge

Just heard Edro and Lisa version , so here I am for the original.

Take Me Down  - Words & Music by Pravinand Maharaj aka Johnny Minstrel

There’s a ghost star light
Somewhere in the night
If ever I be found
Baby take me down

I’m out on a limb
And the odds are slim
If ever I be found
Baby take me down

Out on this side
Everything’s hazy
Nothing’s ever clear
Out on this side 
It’s so crazy
How far the way appears

Some leave tracks
To the moon and back
If ever I be found
Baby take me down

Out on this side
Everything’s hazy
Nothing’s ever clear
Out on this side 
It’s so crazy
How far the way appears

When worlds collide
A spark survives
If ever I be found
Baby take me down

There’s a ghost star light
Somewhere in the night
If ever I be found
Baby take me down

Where are You

21. Just guitar loves

..... I don't think that much about breathing ...., but reflecting , how different and complex breathing is, while singing, playing the "aerophones" or the Danmoi, (which is no jawharpe, but a "lip lute"), or the didgeridoo, brought me to that fun title of the track :-). I really was in trouble, to find a name :-D..., it is music and it is, what it is, so it means all and nothing. Flow, in the best case :-) enJoy

Carved Roses

No Dominion

Give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up
Oh dear
Your legs apart and stuck in the air
There ain't much room for me in there

CHORUS
I don't wanna be no consolation
I don't wanna be no second thought
I struggle with the act of double penetration
I'm worried I'm the one that gets cut short
I don't wanna be no consolation
I don't wanna be no second thought
A sweaty and sticky cum vacation
I'm worrying about what I may have caught

Give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up
Oh wow
Ones enough cuz two's a crowd
You can't scream both our names out loud

CHORUS

Give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up

The Sage (2020, David Bell)

There's a Stranger, in the night
passing by, in the cold moonlight

A sense of wisdom, he has the sight
In these times that we live it's hard to tell
what's wrong from what is right

Can you tell me the answer, my friend?
The life we've known is coming to an end
So much has changed, been re-arranged, can't tell dark from light
Can you tell me the answer, my friend?

Solo

Can you tell me the answer, my friend?
In these times that we live it's hard to tell, 
what's wrong from what is right
What was up is down, what was lost is found, can't tell dark from light

Can you tell me the answer, my friend?
Can you tell me the answer, my friend?
Can you tell me the answer, my friend?

When my eleven year old daughter heard me working with this she told me that her imagination took her to a summers day, laying in the grass watching the clouds in the sky. I thought it was a cute imagination so I named it there after.

Enjoy!

I am not a musician but music plays a very important role in my creative life! I am an artist/designer and music is my companion and my muse in the long hours I spend working in my studio! 
I am immensely impressed and grateful for all the talented and inspiring musicians whose work graces this Cloud, and I will always re-post sounds that I love (and will listen to again) - knowing that others will enjoy them!
I feel slightly embarrassed and quite humbled when I receive such graceful messages of thanks from artists whose work I have re-posted - after-all, I am the one who is so inspired by the discovery of your brilliant music!!!
So thank YOU!!!
Jools :)
P.S. If you want to see where the music takes me there is a link to my Portfolio site on Behance below!!! 
NEW!! - Thanks for all the great feed-back on my work! I shall be re-launching with a website (shop & archive) ‘KULT-JE’ in the not too distant future! Meanwhile, examples of past and current work are featured on my Instagram (@joolselphick)
Since my heart op in Jan2021, I have had to deal with taking quite a lot of meds which have interrupted my design work - that and moving to Germany in 2020 - and back in 2021 (due to Covid my business plans stalled!) - SO, slowly getting it together…. hang tight!😊

I have an archive of my work to date on Instagram - @joolselphick

I'm a singer-songwriter from Durban, South Africa. Having being raised in the church I was advantaged with a ready-made audience. Their kindness, patience and ecouragement gave me the confidence to improve my songwriting and to take it quite seriously. At times when the lyrics had a touch of controversy, they never thought it scandalous, which further encouraged me to write on social issues, love songs, and songs with just a story. 
By my mid-teens I was heavily influenced by the hippy gospel songwriter Larry Norman, which may explain why into my 50's I still have long hair! Through his music I learned that songs do have a greater purpose. 
As a young upstart I was blessed with a kind and forgiving congregation. Today I'm blessed with a very tolerant family and a bunch of great friends. I love what I do!
