Stunning work as usual. Great to get such a treat from you all. Hats off to you guys

Great driving melody, percussion and psychedelic sound, with some amazing guitar solos!

awesome variations and guitar explorations

This reminds me of @ The End by Los Be atles!! Like an extended jam from the Four headed monster!! Trade off of awesome solos!! Love everything and everyone’s’ solos and contributions by JJ and your humble drummer, he he!! … just superb jam, Josh and all my brothers!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Hey, I think. I understand you a bit better now.  You work on the Y axis meaning you follow energies.  Computers don’t seem to like that.  They can force you on the x axis especially when you do retakes.  Yeah I am getting into your sounds quickly.  There’s a lot of bluegrass spirit. Cool!

Rock it, brothers. ! !!!!!!🤟🤟🤟🙏🙏🙏

Lyrics
Verse 1
We sailed into port on a hot afternoon
I felt we had been back and fore to the moon
Salt in my eyes and salt in my throat
I’ve never been so glad to get off a boat

Verse 2
Rapped up in hope and quite a bit of luck
I looked up at fortune and then a thought struck
I’m a stranger in this land but I feel so at home
From my head to my feet and every bone

Chorus
To realise my every dream I’ve had
Realise the choice of good and bad
I may be a stranger in this distant land
But I feel so at home with my brother Galahad

Middle 8
I feel such an old man at age of twenty two
I’ve seen so much hardship with so much to do
I pull myself up with an invisible hand
This is my home. This is my land

Verse 3
The crowd surged forward in the afternoon sun
A voice shouted walk and please don’t run
And then I saw someone raise a gun 
It chilled the spine, I’m sure, in everyone.

Verse 4
I closed my eyes for a moment or two
The crowd surged forward. They stepped on my shoes
Crushed up together, I felt black and blue
The queue seemed so long but soon I was through.

There to Here  Pt. 2

Cast of characters:
RIch O'Brien-- @rich-obrien -- composition, intro guitar solo
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– third guitar solo  
J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell -- Clave and organ
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, production, and mix
Llanpsych–@llanpsych –Tez–final guitar solo
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–four-string fretless bass and second guitar solo
This song started as a full composition on all instruments by Rich. He asked me if I'd be interested in a collaboration with it. I jumped at the chance to share it with the Eclectic Collective. So, I invited the gang to join in, replacing most of the original instrumentation, and adding some new. After Ken had added his driving, foundational drums, I added my bass to match. JJ soon after cranked up the funk-o-meter by adding his clave and screaming organ. Then, I added a guitar solo, which comes in right after Rich's intro. Stephen was up next with his badass licks in the third solo. Then Tez got a hold of it, and ripped a hole in the ether with his guitar in the last solo.
  Ken was generous enough to produce and mix this for us. And what an outstanding job he did, too. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed making it.

  This is a remix that Tez did of a song JJ wrote, and we released a couple weeks ago. He extracted the coda, expanded it, and mixed an ambient groove into it. Basically, he took the sweetest part of the fruit and made a salad with it. Everyone is doing the same thing they were a couple weeks ago, except this time what you're hearing has gone through the filter of Tez's brain. It sounds like almost a completely different song now, and a really fun ride at that. Tez is into ambient music, so this touches on that proclivity, too. When all heard it on Christmas day, we decided immediately that we wanted to share it with all of you. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it, and Tez enjoyed crafting it into something new.

And Ye Shall Receive (Copyright 2022 Jeffrey A. Trott)

Lyrics:
All the things that you do
Things I know nothing about
Things that bring me to you
That we won't say aloud

All the dreams we've forgot
They are as hard as the sea
Was the work just for naught
Were those words just for me

All the things I could lose
Things I'd be nothing without
Things my dreams need to use
When my soul is in doubt

Shooting Stars

Dear friends, it is a big day when a little guy will taste real food for the first time in his life. We were sent a video of this spectacle and you could see how grateful this little baby was for the little porridge served by his sister!
This song may be a little bit crazy, but it is an expression of love between a sister and a newborn little brother.

Lyrics inEnglish

Hugo's Big Day

It is on this day that something important will happen
they feel they are a little anxious
now it depends on - everyone knows what they are doing
if something goes wrong when this boy is to be trained

Is it said who does everything who experiments
it has to be someone you can trust
who could it be - it must be her
which shows that she always loves this little boy

What is going to happen now, is it something huge
it is now that his taste buds will be tested
because now it will be a little porridge - which he gets from his sister
and the reward is a small smile from this boy
        

Lyrics in Swedish

Hugos Stora Dag

Det är denna dagen som något viktigt ska hända
            G.       D. Em.                  Am.           G.   D
de känner att de är lite ängsliga
       Em.              Am     G.      D.      G
nu hänger det på att - alla vet vad de gör  
      G.                   C.     C.         D.        G
om nu något blir fel när denna pojken ska tränas
             G.           D.                   C.               D.  G

Är det sagt vem som gör allt vem som experimenterar
           G.                     D.  Em.              Am.           G.D
det måste vara någon man kan lita på
        Em.            Am.                   G.  D.       G
vem kan det nu bli - det måste vara hon
         G.              C.    C.             D.     G
som visar att hon alltid älskar denna lille pojken
         G.                 D.                 C.             D.  G

Vad är det som nu ska ske är det något som är jättestort
       G.               D.         Em.          Am.                  G.    D
det är nu som hans smaklökar testas skall
          Em.                  Am.          G.        D.       G
för nu blir det lite gröt - som han får av syster sin
           G.                C.     C.                     D.       G
och belöningen blir ett litet leende från denna pojk
            G.           D.               C.        D.              G

"Magic is what we do. Music is how we do it." -- Jerry Garcia

Welcome to my page, my peers, associates, friends, and musical family. I'm a lifelong, multi-instrumentalist musician who records prolifically and joyfully. You'll hear me play guitar, bass (regular four string, and four and five string fretless), mandolin, banjo, keys (piano, organ, synth), lap slide, sitar, and sing on my recordings here. I've been in a few dozen bands in my life, playing everything from bluegrass, jazz, rock, jam band, reggae, funk, afrobeat, Middle Eastern, traditional Irish, singer/songwriter, pop/covers, to experimental/avant garde. 
  Since I found SoundCloud a couple years ago, I've found many talented, creative people with whom to create music. However, in the summer of '23 I formed a band called The Eclectic Collective with some of my favorite musicians I've met through here. It started as a loose collective of musicians and coalesced into a core group of musicians who find other musicians with whom we'd like to make music, then run their songs through our process, and in effect add a full band. That core of The Eclectic Collective includes Tez (Llanpsych), J.J. Terrel, Ken (K2 and the Three), Stephen (Texmex Shaman), Chris (cgmaness), and Mark (mistermark). A couple of other musicians are frequent collaborators, as well, including Artur of Surfers Like Us, and Steve Vervaet of Steve's World. More recently, we've been joined by Carl of The Beautiful Dark fame. 
  The magic of music is amplified exponentially by each person adding to it. So, we really try to add our sorcery all kinds of music from all kinds of artists. Sometimes, we keep it within the group, but a lot of what we do is collaboration with other artists. Therefore these days, 100% of what I do is collaboration, within the group or with other artists on the side.
  I, and we, are also available for hire if you have a song or lyrics and you really want to add bigger instrumentation or a band and good production to it. 
  A small sampling of the artists whom I consider primary influences, and whom you will hear coming through my fingers include Phish, The Flaming Lips, The Grateful Dead, Radiohead, Rye Cooder, Steve Earle, Miles Davis, Fela Kuti, Arcade Fire, Mikey Dread, Yellowman, Purpleman, The Meditations, Michigan and Smiley, Lee Perry, Dillinger, Django Reinhardt, Impossible Recording Machine, The Allman Bros Band, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Cream, Bela Fleck, Les Claypool, Sam Bush, David Grissman, John Prine, Talking Heads, Beastie Boys, MMW, Moe., Morphine, Ween, Steve Lukather, Michael McDonald, John Abercrombie, Dave Holland, John Scofield, Victor Wooten,  Cannonball Adderly, Thelonious Monk, Flea, Parliament Funkadelic,  Frank Zappa, Prince Paul, Pete Rock, Thievery Corporation, Amon Tobin, Chet Baker, Joao Gilberto, Stan Getz, Astrud Gilberto, Carol Kaye, Tame Impala, Mumford and Sons, Japanese Breakfast, LCD Soundsystem, Beach House, Sean Lennon, and Billy Strings, but of course there are many more. I also really like and am influenced by traditional Iranian, Palestinian, Indian, Sri Lankan, Sudanese, Mauritian, Somalian, Egyptian, West African, and Syrian music. I welcome anyone who plays non-western music to contact me for a collaboration, too.
 I'm overjoyed to have found my community on SoundCloud. This is a truly unique forum where everyone is sincerely trying to build each other up. The profoundly supportive and positive SoundCloud community has really opened up an exciting new world of collaboration for me. That is the main reason I'm in the Cloud, actually, to connect with other musicians and make music that I enjoy listening to, and hopefully others do, as well. I am ALWAYS looking to collaborate with interesting musicians, mostly though BandLab, which is where I record almost exclusively. It's a solid, free digital audio workstation hub where you can share recording projects, even if it's not where you make your recordings.
  Everything I do is live instrumental, not programmed, and using no computer beyond my phone. That's not to say that I would be opposed to using that kind of tool, it's just not my preferred medium with which to paint. If you like my music, please share it. If you want to collaborate, my BandLab handle is @bingo_pajama. Feel free to contact me at cornbreadband@hotmail.com, as well, even if you aren't on BandLab.
  If your music is primarily AI, please don't come around my page, as I'm not at all interested in complimenting a machine.
  Here's a link to music I've recorded live with a group of musicians here in Pittsburgh called The Northumberland Street Ramblers.
