The Stealer (Free)
Written by Paul Rodgers / Andy Fraser

Ian Tait, the great Scottish chef, guitarist and noted philosopher, posted this great version of the Free classic the other day, along with a note saying that he'd nearly ditched his own vocal and turned the track into an instrumental.  In a moment of reckless opportunism, I wrote and asked him if he'd allow me to have a try and, generous man that he is, he said yes.  This is the result.  Pay no attention to the man behind the screen…just listen to Big Man Tait play.  (Gary Reeves)

The Stealer  (collab with Ian Tait)

Ian Tait and I haven't released anything in a few weeks so we came up with a little cross the pond collaboration that turned into Scotch and Bourbon.  Named the tune for Ian's Scotch heritage, and since I'm from the US - but with roots back to Scotland on both my parents side - I went for our equivalent....Bourbon.  Two great drinks to share with you.  

A simple Hammond B3 organ vamp sets up the tune, and Ian added some additional interest with some moving bass lines, and his signature funked out wah wah playing.  We built upon that with some baritone sax lines and threw in the two solos - Ian is first and I follow using a favorite heavy electric guitar patch - an excellent foil.   Thanks for listening and for your comments.  They are rewarding to us.  And you can check out more of Ian's fine playing at his gallery:  https://soundcloud.com/ian-tait

Scotch And Bourbon - with Ian Tait / guitar and bass

In France we say "in the kingdom of blind, one-eyed people are king" ...This song is about these mediocre people who pretend to know everything and try to rule their little world of blind servants ...I guess a pretty universal and untemporal theme ...
Please visit Ian's cloud (https://soundcloud.com/ian-tait), amazing guitarist from Scotland who really inflamed the guitar parts of this one :))

The one eyed king

I can't stand the waste no more
I can't stand the waste no more
No liar, no pretender,

no one eyed king (in the kingdom of blind)

What I've seen - Nobody knows
What i've lived - Nobody cares
But what I can tell you (my friend)
Is that it could have turned bad to me

Well I choose to stand still and pray
For better times in my own way
Caus I know , that in the long term, to get trust
You must say what you do - And do what you say

I can't stand the waste no more
I can't stand the waste no more
No liar, no pretender,
no one eyed king (in the kingdom of blind)

Now the one eyed king is mistrusted - All he does is blown away
And I live much better days
But what I can tell you (my friend)
Is that I keep singing every saturday

I can't stand the waste no more
I can't stand the waste no more
No liar, no pretender, 
no one eyed king (in the kingdom of blind)
