Guitar playing and singing are both wonderful‼️ Creative‼️

this one is great mate, love the mccartney o bla dee bla daah groove, the vocal is stellar too

Lovin’ that Jagger swagger on this track. Great guitar sound as always

Hell of a story, my friend. Great song too....

super writing on a crazy life story.. love the guitar sounds and even better the swagger and attitude of a great performer

nicely done, those guitars is recorded so well, vocals are perfect

I always have to read the tracknote before listening to the song to see what I'm getting into...not nearly as much as you were getting into;)  Yes, it's usually not a good idea to bring a cinderblock to a gun fight.  Those guys were not playing around.   You're not playin' around either, some fine licks, solo leads, and bluesy vocals in this song:)

This is a love song written about Josh's favorite band, Phish. He came up with the chords on his acoustic guitar, and shared it with the group. This was written with Beck in mind, though, too, as he knew she'd be contributing her magic to this one, too. Even when it was just the acoustic guitar set to a looper beat, she came up with many of the parts you hear throughout. Although, she also readjusted and redid a lot of it, too, throughout the process. Ken was the next piece of the puzzle to jump in. He laid down his perfect drums beats to it in only one or two tries, giving it the groove it needed. After Ken laid down the beat, that allowed Josh to add his bass to the mix, too. It was almost done musically, but it needed a lead guitar, which Josh also put in there. Before it was finished, though, JJ weighed in with his clever organ, which can be heard from about 2:30 on. When it was all wrapped up musically, Josh also sang his lyrics, which are written from the perspective of two Phish heads conversing about the imminent Phish show, which is always a big, exciting event. 
  Josh has seen almost 70 Phish shows in his life, and he hopes his adoration for the band is evident in this song. This is the second song Eclectic Collective have done with Beck, and we all hope for many more, too. She's a fantastic musician, with a wonderfully deep well of creativity. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it. 

Original lyrics by Josh Clary:

Are you gonna meet me at the show tonight
Am I gonna see you at the show?
What songs do you think they’ll play tonight?
I’ve been waiting all year to go

You should check out last night’s set list
The show was packed with killer songs
Is there any one that you’ve been chasing?
I love it when the crowd all sings along
 
Trey’s been stirring up all the great jams
Page rules the keyboards from his throne
Mike digs the groove so deep and he stands
On Fishman’s beats that shake our bones
 
Hope you have your ticket for the show tonight
I know these days they’re on our phones
Some spun wook is always tripping
Looking for profundity in all the songs

Every now and then they have to just stop spinning 
Stare at the lights, and sing along
So I know we’ll hear some great things tonight
Every time I go, my mind gets blown
After in the lot I know I’ll eat a grilled cheese

Wish — The Whole World On One Ship, What Could Be Better

Hey…. So this is a little Blues tune about days gone by in the life of a guitar picker. It is a new version of an old song, with some new lyrics, way more decent vocals (man, I had pushed my gravelly vocals to the limit on the original. Which contained the essence of the moment, but was musically flawed.) Since I don’t have a bass guitar or a drum set, I used my acoustic guitar for bass, and a keyboard for drums. (The keyboard sounds better than me banging on whatever on some of my previous songs.) I am losing the ability to solo on guitar as I age, as can be heard on this, but my big mouth (vocals) are holding strong. The lyrical theme is an amalgamation of two distinct periods of my life. Military service and college in that sequential order. In college, I was walking out to my car in the parking lot, late one night, when I saw these dudes jump out of a dark sedan in the lot. They began smashing car windows and stealing whatever they could. These college dudes coming back from a late night party tried to stop them by yelling, as they drove by, and one of the dudes from the sedan pulled out a handgun and began shooting at them as they went by. Suddenly, a bullet wizzed by my head. I heard it whistle. I just stood there in the darkness, as if my life had just flashed before my eyes, taking it all in. I watched as those dudes jumped back into the sedan and they sped off, tires screeching. They turned onto the access road nearby with their lights off, heading in my direction. I looked and saw a cinderblock within reach and thought to myself that I could easily pick it up, walk over to the road and throw it through their windshield, what being the hero that I am. (That was part of my military training). They had no idea I was there. Hahahahaha…… but I quickly decided now was not the time for such things being a college student as it were. So I just continued walking to my car and ended up hanging out with my college compadres, in the parking lot, as we rehashed the incident while looking at all the smashed car windows and stuff spilled onto the pavement. I was glad I had such an old, beat up looking car, with nothing inside. Anyway, I hope you like this song. Mark

Coffee ☕ 

I'm awake dear world...
Where's the dose?
I'm twitching
In need of that warm dark roast
I've been watching this kettle forever boil
Breathe dear boy
Oh grounds
Calm turmoil
We're there
Now pour
Oh mighty morning fix
Check favourite mug
1 sugar now mix
Hmmm
We have our fag
We have our brew
Now into the garden you addict you...

Relief, I'm real, I'm alive, I'm numb
Course through my veins
Cure caffeine come
Tame my bark
Aww save my kids
Brew brave my stark
Snaps get their lid
First of too many
Through this day
From sip to sip
Awww keep hitting that grey
The cure of coffee
The seed of sane
Flicking mind bean
Timed happy pain

Caffeine to brain
Coffee my sane
Caffeine to brain
Coffee my sane

Firstly on easy listening 6/4 bars, I cut some notes out of the main theme so as to give it dynamism, and finally obtained a prime amalgam of 17 quarter notes. I hid any recognizable thing in the accompaniment, and for the organic lines (voice and guitars) I tried the strong rhythm would not fix too much the melodies, first paying a lot of attention, and finally ... just letting me go.

Translated lyrics:

Oídos sordos (17 negras)  /  Deaf ears (17 quarter notes)

Quiero gritar todo lo que siento, estando solo;  /   I want to shout out everything I feel, being alone;
pero gritándolo al viento y si no contesta,  /  but shouting it at the wind and if it doesn’t answer,
dime, ¿de qué me sirve? (bis)  /  tell me, how does that help me? (bis)

Todos los vientos conocen mi historia  /  All the winds know my story
pero no hacen nada.  /  but they don’t do anything.
¿Será que no me oyen? (bis)  /  Perhaps they don’t hear me? (bis)

He estado aquí y allí gritando como un loco,  /  I’ve been here and there screaming like a madman,
pero todo sigue igual.  /  but it’s all the same.
¿Será que no me oyen? (bis)  /  Perhaps they don’t hear me? (bis)

Quiero gritar…  /  I want to shout out…

Ahora sé que no sirve de nada;  /  Now I know it’s no use;
el viento sois todos que callais al verme,  /  all of you are the wind, silent when you see me,
y dejáis que hable y hable,  /  and letting me speak and speak,
y dejáis que hable y hable y hable.  /  and letting me speak and speak and speak.

No creo que vuelva mañana  /  I don’t think I’ll be back tomorrow
a escuchar vuestro silencio.  /  to listen to your silence.
Quiero encontrar a alguien. (bis)  /  I want to find someone. (bis)

Quiero gritar…  /  I want to shout out…

Hey. I am a late bloomer musically. Initially I started on acoustic guitar, then within the last 4 years: Banjo, slide guitar, dobro, recorder, harmonica and singing.  Most of my songs are rough, unpolished, unpracticed, recordings made on an old laptop. Thank you for the love and support, the insights and ideas, the camaraderie and fellowship, Lammbone
