Got a bit of early Rolling Stones Blues-y feel to this beauty here. Fab job, Ken. Most enjoyed.

glad to discover this one...superb sharp riffs and great performance, fun!

a rawer and bouncier version, amazing how a bit of timing can change the feel. Like em both!

mister big is coming after you
nobody knows just what he'll do/
in the middle of the night,
maybe he'll surprise you...

Mister Big

Ultra

This one started as a collaboration with Cosmic Keanu, but evolved to include my good friend Chris (cgmaness). Keanu gave me the baadass riddim, and Chris added the high vocals and the mix. I played bass, guitar, organ, and slide. I also sung the low melody. this was a true collaborative effort for one of my favorite Radiohead songs. We hope you enjoy it.

Stock crash middle class 
Counterfeit crime of a century
Cutthroat don’t choke
Better him than you on the brink

Cool breeze charismatic
Grave robbing scam of a century
Drill baby thrill baby
Burning up an Anthropocene

It’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony
It’s been a long time since I realized I couldn’t relate
I’ve been craning my neck trying to see if there’s a sign that was meant for me I said it’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony

Bring it back

Pill-poppin priest talkin trash 
Through the crash of a century
Blind luck dumb fuck 
Jamming up the waves on my scene

Flip top shock jock 
Certified creep of a century
I see you don’t know how to read
But you write like you know what it means

It’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony
It’s been a long time since I realized I couldn’t relate
I’ve been craning my neck trying to see if there’s a sign that was meant for me. I said it’s been a long time since I lost my mind in a symphony

Bring it back

Lost in a Symphony

For a more dense rhythm section I needed agility on bass line so this time, instead of the double bass, I chose to use my old dear electric bass, an old Cort that's been with me since high school. I haven’t played it for a long time, it’s been fun, I think I will do it again soon.
About the picture: actually the place of the photo is not a station or an airport, it is part of a photographic work I made some years ago on the concept of non-place like the big malls. But a non-place is also, some way, an all-places, every places from which to leave or arrive...
The real truth is that I've always liked this photo, for the perspective plane and because it's full of lines with variety of lights and shadows... In short, I couldn't wait to find an excuse to use it :)

Have a nice trip!

Lyrics:
If he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

If he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

There comes a time in every man's life
When the words won't flow and the melody slows
There comes a time when day turns to night 
And the flame once so bright is nowhere in sight

If he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

If he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

Please don't go
You'll never know
That every time I clear my mind
You're the only one I find

Disconnected and tone deaf
Emotionally worth less
Wondering what will be left
I fill my life with emptiness

Remembering your touch
I couldn't get enough
Now it doesn't even matter
No it doesn't matter

Cos if he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

If he stops singing
It will be the beginning
Of the end of a time when
Life is worth living

Don't stop singing
Never stop 
Never stop

poem / copyright jo richter:

he had thrown shells
through bedroom windows
watched debris rain down
on strollers and dogs

his patriot self
got lost in the trenches
he watched himself die
survive and fight on

STAINED-GLASS PROPOSAL
RE-WATCHED ON A SMARTPHONE
MONOLITH LONGING
AS THE BATTERY DRAINS

she watched the news
frontlines too static
left to fetch water
thirsting for hope

she tried to comfort
a spark without flame
when little remains
you pick up what's left

A TOWNHOUSE WEDDING
FIVE DOZEN BRIDES
A DAY BEFORE LEAVING
A TENDER WHITE LIE

warfare has lingered
lining live ghosts
acting and watching
in camouflage clothes

Recorded at Inspired Sound studio with Bill Kavanagh's Blues Affliction.   This song was written specifically for the session.

Lyrics:
	we're a short time here and a long time gone
	we're just a short time here but we're a long time gone
	so let's make hay while the sun shines because we can't once it's down

	you might dance with the devil but that don't make him your friend
	you might gamble on the devil but that don't mean you're gonna win
	best to keep your cards close you just might meet him again

	I might die with a fool's knowledge but I live behind a sage's mask
	'cause I'm always looking for answers to questions only heathens ever ask
	some would say come judgement day I'll have to pay for my skeptical past

	we're a short time here and a long time gone
	we're just a short time here but we're a long, long time gone
	so let's make hay while the sun shines because we can't once it's down

	yes we're a long, long time gone

singer/songwriter from Yarra Valley, Australia.   Struggling as much with modern times as with times past.   I guess that makes me a chronic struggler.
