Jore - Collaborations

I've enjoyed hearing this tune played in various ways and thought I would try it out with my accordion and also with Jore @jorma-heikkil in a collab too.

Nyth Y Gwcw (Welsh tune) in various ways

Rescue

Round n' Round

Nyth Y Gwcw/ The Cuckoo's Nest

A Welsh hornpipe, though we play it a little slower than usual, in keeping with an English version of the tune we heard.

Nyth Y Gwcw

Nyth y gwcw (the cuckoo's nest) is a lively Welsh folk dance using traditional folk instruments to uplift motivate and inspire viewers/listeners. This would perfectly supplement video and landscape footage where the user is looking to promote a feeling of motivated nostalgia.

Hilary Dirlam collab with Jore - Balam

A little melody to great tablas played by Achyut

Tabla Summer - Jore collab Achyut

A new take of my track Pegless but now with my new musical friends Hilary Dirlam and Alan 'Newshoe' Ingall. It's called collaboration!

Pegless (new acoustic mix) - Jore w/ Hilary Dirlam and newshoe

Newshoe sent me this nice accordion solo to place into another track but I wanted it here... and I built those chords around it

Yellow Moon
(with the excerpt from Lord Byron's poem)

Yellow moon, yellow moon
Why you keep looking in my window?
Do you know something 
You know something I don't know

Did you see my baby 
Walking down them railroad tracks?
Oh can you tell me
If he is ever coming back?

Is he hid out with another
Or is he trying to get back home?
Is he wrapped up in some other arms
Or he is somewhere all alone?

With your eyes so bright and a-shiny
You can see the whole damn land
Yellow moon, can you tell me 
If another stole my man?

Yellow moon, yellow moon, yellow moon,
Did you see my creole baby?
Oh can you tell me 
If he is still friend of mine

...
(spoken)
So, we'll go no more a roving
   So late into the night,
Though the heart be still as loving,
   And the moon be still as bright.
...

With your eyes so bright and a-shiny
You can see the whole damn land
Yellow moon, can you tell me 
If another stole my man?

Yellow moon, yellow moon, yellow moon,
Did you see my creole baby?
Oh can you tell me 
If he is still friend of mine

I was 24 when the winds of change blew
and pushed me to the brink of what my mind could do
we had bills to pay I barely had a clue
of what workin was like when the jobs were few
Years went fear bent money bein spent
on anything but people, and so I caught the scent 
of fat cats, dumb rats among the discontent
just another long day in the 99%

Ohh Ohh I never mean to be workin here
but gotta pay the rent 
and line the silver pockets of the government
Ohh Ohh and I'm waitin for the dawn
to bring the world along 
and make the people strong
but I keep pressin on

Now I'm not lookin for sympathy 
I was lucky and my folks were good to me
But I'm not blind to the misery 
there ain't nothin in this life that comes for free

And I can't sit here and just pretend 
that the man isn't going to try to expend
the minds and bodies on which he depends
to drain this world to the bitter end

Ohh Ohh and I do intend
that I won't be fooled
when he condescends 
and blames the poorest people for their sufferin
Ohh Ohh cause they've fallen for the con
they're rather deaf than wrong
just wanna feel belonged
and I keep pressin on

All together we're at the end of our tale
The smoke is gone and we've managed to see through the veil
and the lies that are woven on another scale
sink deep through the system like the final nail
Now comin into sight is a fork that splits our road
and gets us to change the world before it implodes
You may not want to listen you may think its a show
but this road it forces us to reap the seeds that we sow

Ohh Ohh the tide's turnin slow*
the time's runnin out
and the chance is low
that the world remains the way we used to know
Ohh Ohh the moments almost gone
minds are withdrawn 
the damage has been done
and I keep pressin on

Pressin' on...

Oh ho ho

v4.00

Press On

A big happy birthday Rudi, and thankyou for letting me share your beautiful music, always magic to work with you <3 
Keep safe and well everyone!

Lyrics
We are all just grains of sand
But together we form the shore
And we are all just tiny sparks
But we fill the sky with stars

And we are all just breath
But it forms the wind that cradles the grass
And we are all just tiny streams
But together we fill the Sea

An we are all just a moment in time
Just a moment in time
But together Eternity
But together Eternity
But together Eternity

This site can be seen as a musical tale of the members of the band called The Mescaline Smugglers: Davy McGowan, Jore Heikkila and Tuomas Laitila. But it also includes their other bands, and bands in which they play together in different combinations or solo projects, before and after The Mescaliners. Listen to one track a day and maybe you'll have heard everything after 5 or 6 years. That should make you feel better - money back guarantee!
