Some sunday morning vintage mood playing with my 1979 GB10 on lead and rhythm. The lovely Jamey Aebersold play-a-long is from '79 too and this is my today's tribute to the guys from back then. 
Thanks also to all friends for listening and patience ☀️

On The Walls

(English translation below)
Urmitz, ein kleiner Ort in der nähe von Koblenz, im Mittelrheintal. Es ist früh am Morgen. Die Sonne ist gerade aufgegangen und vertreibt den noch im Tal liegen Frühnebel.

Bei der Entstehung dieses Songs hatte ich von Anfang an dieses Bild im Kopf, das ich, vor etwas mehr als 10Jahren, in der Morgenstunde aufgenommen habe.

Mit der Umsetzung des Songs hab ich mich dieses mal schwer getan, da ich sehr lange an dem Mix gearbeitet habe. Ich wünschte ich hätte zwei gesunde Ohren. Ich hoffe trotzdem, das ihr viel Spaß beim hören habt.

English translation:
Urmitz, a small village near Koblenz, in the Middle Rhine Valley. It is early in the morning. The sun has just risen and is dispersing the early morning mist still lying in the valley.

When I wrote this song, I had this picture in my head from the very beginning, which I took more than 10 years ago in the early morning.

I had a hard time with the realization of the song this time, because I worked on the mix for a very long time. I wish I had two healthy ears. I hope you enjoy listening to it anyway.

Einsteins Brain (4 - Album: Follow the Joy)

A song about a friend who found himself living alone after many years.

Left Alone Blues

The melody and chord pattern were dreamed up in 1998, but the song has since undergone a rescue effort in 2024.

The song was originally called "Suzy Suicide," and I must admit it was a serious lyric missfire.  The title was also a little flippant.  I'm a mental health nurse these days, and upon re-visiting this I felt a strong need to change the lyric altogether. It does however still refer to something in a potentially similar vein, in my wanting to stay at least a little close to where the song was originally, with respect being high up, with a potential drop on the cards.  The first line is the only line from the original 1998 lyric.

In any case the original story was about someone leaping from the top of a building, only to change their mind halfway down, but is now about the activities of people like James Kingston, and other free climbers. The new lyric also takes some inspiration from Phillipe Petit in the same regard, thinking about some of the things he said about his harness-free tight rope walk atop the Twin Towers (World Trade Centre), effectively saying that such a passing, due to a fall from the wire, were it to have occurred, would have been a beautiful last moment of life.

In any case the lyric is pulling from those people, I suppose individuals who don't feel their cogs moving unless they're amid rather extreme experiences, without which, I suppose, they don't particularly feel connected to life. Such things turn my stomach, but I suppose, for some people, being on the brink of something like that makes them feel alive.

Anyway, that's what I was shooting at, however, it's quite esoteric, as far as lyrics go, and could easily mean some other odd thing to someone else.

Seems it took me 26 years to finish this one! 🤣

Lyrics

Climbing up the staircase
A few floors left to go
Time to end the chase
Feels like I’m nearly home
When I get to the top
I’ll find some space and time
I’ll step into a portal
Reach the other side

I feel the earth, it’s pull
It’s lure feels stronger than a fire in the cold, yeah
won’t cover too much distance,
if I glide below
If I slipped it might feel like dreaming
And give me some new lifetime
Within a few short seconds
I might feel some kind of lifeline

There’s nothing here inside
No signals just my vital signs of life
Signs I don’t recognise
Nothing is clear behind these darkened eyes
But signs of life below
Some sign of other worlds that I could know
If just inside my mind
Some sign of light to brighten up these eyes
Some sign of life

I didn’t miss the news
But seems I’m none the wiser
It suits my tranquil solitude
The drum of nonsurvivors
They say don’t look down
But that just blunts emotion
I’m petrified but energised
Life could be over, just that notion!

I’m captured by an epic view
my gorgeous guiding spirit
The lights all twinkle down below
Their sparkle so explicit
I feel a surge beneath my feet
A foot forward, but I'm stable
I’m gonna trust the air I feel
I’m slipping free from all my labels

There’s nothing here inside
No signals just my vital signs of life
Signs I don’t recognise
Nothing is clear behind these darkened eyes
But signs of life below
Some sign of other worlds that I could know
If just inside my mind
Some sign of light to brighten up these eyes
Some sign of life
