This Summer Ain't Much Fun


Nothing At All

Verse 1
It's nothing at all   
Not a stumble not a fall
As you see I'm still on my feet 
and seem to know what I'm doing
Verse 2
It's nothing at all
Just a bump in the road
Nothing gained nothing lost
And no souls were ever sold 
Chorus:
But don't turn around now 
There's nothing to see
Just a little blood on the tracks so no need to worry
Section 2:
Stepped out into the world where the storms howled the winds swirled
And I'm still pretending it's all OK
Wakes me in the night and I know that things can't be right
When I can't find a happy song to play
and when I really need to hear someone say
Verse 3
That it's nothing at all 
No your backs not to the wall
But you really need to stop believing you understand what's gone and what's coming
Verse 4
Choices have been made
And they won't come un-done
So let's choose to spend our days in the light of that bright Redwood sun
Final Chorus:
But don't turn around now
Cause there's nothing to see
The hounds have given up the chase so no need to worry

Lazy blues

You hold the keys to
PANDORA'S BOX
Within which I placed my soul
So long ago.....
Your courage and your compassion lead you on
Your pain and self-doubt have you hobbled
You are trapped in a centrifuge of time
I am helpless 
You are the only one who can  release that energy
The box will open
All hell will let loose
We will discover we have wings
With which to fly
Across that ocean
And meet face to face
Heart to Heart
This is Leap Year 2016 and
A good place to start 




The Proposal (29/02/16 - Leap Year)

Dear SoundClouders,

In this track you hear me playing a part of the song "Montagne St Genevieve". Not everything is played as the original. People think that the song is written by Django Reinhardt. Django Reinhardt never recorded the song. I hope you enjoy it ! R.I.P. Django

Please comment, like and follow!

Montagne St Genevieve

Curated by Mike Newman of Beyond Beyond Beyond, Nights with Alice Cooper and East Village Radio, this compilation features some of the great US psychedelic rock bands of the moment.  Freaky, groovy, and spaced-out, this music is cage-free, nationwide, badass rock & roll.

Brooklyn Raga Association -  Water

This little song is about staying strong and true as we get older. I decided to keep it rough and bare.

Bless This Heart (Brian Peters)

I've been travelling a while
Wearing out these miles
Portioning my days
In that circle of time
I've been holding fast
Unrolling the past
And I'm doing fine
Bless this heart of mine

The bright new man, the dunce, I do not fear
The blazing sun, the bone-beak missile spear
I count them none

I've been spinning a dial
Unreeling a line
Floating on a river
Without a sign
A sailing lotus shell
On a ripple bell
Yes, I'm doing fine
Bless this heart of mine

The cackle and the bark, they hold no sway
The parables of dark, they're like the spray
I count them none

I've been holding the nerve
On a winding curve
Shooting out some pebbles 
In the grit and grime
My rumbled peace
As I take my ease
Says I'm doing fine
Bless this heart of mine
Yes, I'm doing fine
Bless this heart of mine

Night Room

Bless This Heart

Look at a U.S. map, and draw a straight line from Natchez, Mississippi to Richmond, Virginia.  Then cross it with another line from Savannah, Georgia to Memphis, Tennessee.  Next draw a circle around the outside tips of each line.        The area you've encircled is the subject of this song.
     There is so much spectacular beauty in this world, but I just have never found another place that can compare to a thick old-growth Appalachian forest or the rolling hardwood and pine hills of central Alabama or middle Tennessee.
      I grew up there but don't get to go back often enough.
      The song's title White Spangled Hills is reference to the dogwood tree, which grows wild throughout the area, coloring the wooded hillsides with its white blooms for a month or so in early Spring.

Just an Oregon Song  (Demo)

Instrumentation on this one is entirely baritone uke, harmonica (chromatic, not blues) and bass (& a bit of keyboard percussion here & there).  Gotta try that again sometime.  Track originally uploaded March 2020.

I hope, world, we've learned our lesson, and never let this happen to us again.

Better Days (Will Be Here Soon)

Buy Sell Tomorrows, single by Per Bronco Karlsson 2020.

For me, this song is about the climate crisis. How will humanity act on constant economic growth?

Buy Sell Tomorrows

She's left him, but his nights are still filled with pleasant dreams about her.
His days aren't so pleasant.

Sweet Dreams

Recorded in Linköping, Sweden. Mix: 2020-11-17

Dear SC friends, I will post some new stuff starting with this one. Enjoy! 
There is also a vinyl album coming up with my best songs. It will be released before the end of the year.

Like A Fly Stuck In Amber

I Don't Like It (Any More Than You Do)

I am not a musician but music plays a very important role in my creative life! I am an artist/designer and music is my companion and my muse in the long hours I spend working in my studio! 
I am immensely impressed and grateful for all the talented and inspiring musicians whose work graces this Cloud, and I will always re-post sounds that I love (and will listen to again) - knowing that others will enjoy them!
I feel slightly embarrassed and quite humbled when I receive such graceful messages of thanks from artists whose work I have re-posted - after-all, I am the one who is so inspired by the discovery of your brilliant music!!!
So thank YOU!!!
Jools :)
P.S. If you want to see where the music takes me there is a link to my Portfolio site on Behance below!!! 
NEW!! - Thanks for all the great feed-back on my work! I shall be re-launching with a website (shop & archive) ‘KULT-JE’ in the not too distant future! Meanwhile, examples of past and current work are featured on my Instagram (@joolselphick)
Since my heart op in Jan2021, I have had to deal with taking quite a lot of meds which have interrupted my design work - that and moving to Germany in 2020 - and back in 2021 (due to Covid my business plans stalled!) - SO, slowly getting it together…. hang tight!😊

I have an archive of my work to date on Instagram - @joolselphick
