This track has been removed from soundcloud, but I'm uploading it again NOW!!! Allegedly I violate copyright infringement of a complainant who mocks that the ocean waves are his work!!!! Laughable! Ridiculous!
I AM BEYOND ANY DOUBT! THE USED OCEAN WAVES sample I bought with license! With all my might I stand against Soundcloud and will NOT renew my Pro-Unlimited subscription if the support does not consider the action as "set aside" but contact me personally. The "complainant" (Loopable (can be found here, by the way: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=ehuBc6j5iw8&list=RDAMVMehuBc6j5iw8)) is leading the complaint. I have purchased for a proud 189 € at Best Service "The Complete Orchestra Collection", including all licenses and use of the content samples. Please let the complainant prove where he recorded the waves. In his bathtub, or what????? Soundcloud is annoying at the moment and should be aware of its position!

By the way, thanks to everyone who listened, liked and reposted the song before this current upload. And thank you soundcloud for partially "deleting" all those wonderful people who commented!

Rethink your recognition algorithm!

The End (1993)

I always love it when my good friend and bandmate Pat Howell sends me his latest mandolin musing, this time with his Octave.  His musing becomes my "muse" and the ideas start to flow, this time using two mandolins and two guitars.  Just in time for Fall, and maybe my favorite season, a refreshing breeze from the Texas Highlands.  Hear more fine music on Pat's Cloud @patrick-howell-786748109

An imaginary theme to an old imaginary show.

Illusory (Alternate Version)

don't wake me up from dreamin'
the road so long to find
the direction of to and fro
there's no reason and no rhyme

inspiration it's said
will find you down the line

i don't recall where we're supposed to be next year
and i can't see it clearly from there to here

to and fro

Something more traditional/folksy I've been chipping away at for a bit, struggling to flesh it out with more instrumentation. However, the more I listen to its currently bare-cupboard, acoustic vocals+piano arrangement, maybe it's simply *meant* to remain rough and rudimentary?

So please pay no attention to the little finger flubs here and there, and just let yourself get washed over by the orange waves of the Northumberland Strait, where I grew up and where my childish heart still beats.

***

Orange waves crash then go
Stealing sand with its ebb and flow
Holes dotting cliffsides' red clay
Where the swallows sleeping lay

Beyond green edge a homestead puffs away
Hurls hardwood smoke through cold blue
Rocking chairs paired, slowly rotting grey

Island smiles from across the way
Thin dark line splits Strait and sky
It flickers ghostly, hovers fey
Once Ile Saint-Jean, now PEI

Each flat stone we throw from the beach
With dreams to skip, perhaps to fly
All doomed to sink, the island never reached
Drowning jealous of the driftwood swimming by

As full moon flirts with blushing tide
Salt waters sink and sandbars swell
Before they change their minds and hide
I take their path to Mount Carmel

Beyond green edge a homestead puffs away
Hurls hardwood smoke through cold blue
Rocking chairs paired, slowly rotting grey

At Trois-Ruisseaux I wait for you
At Trois-Ruisseaux I wait for you
Trois-Ruisseaux

I'm a conceptual musical artist but the concepts are vague and I'm not willing to explain them.
