My slightly ironic tribute to " the common man"! 
The title is a reference to efforts in the past.

The last track in this album of songs with a beat! LOL!
Turn Turn Turn

Everyman, Justice – Justice for every man!

1
I turn to the North, I burn in ice.
I turn to the South, I’m burned alive.
So I light a fire and open a door –
life is short, don’t wanna suffer no more.

2
I turn to the East, it’s far too bright.
I turn to the West, not enough light.
So I pull the blinds and open a door –
life is short, don’t wanna suffer no more.

Chorus
One of a kind, you can count on me –
I’ll give you my vote, give prosperity.
I more I thrive, the more I strive.
I am the salt of the earth, just look in my eye.
I am the gospel of all that prevails –
Justice for Everyman’s weighed in my scales
and nothing is gonna change!

3
No religion on the factory floor,
no religion at my front door.
The turnstiles take one at a time –
no other reason gonna change my mind.

Chorus

I AM A FOOL LOVING YOU  Lillithe/Paploviante

Ethereal, sparse but big. A haunting, eerie song of, well, love essentially, but as it may be experienced if you were just a ghost.
How could one keep interacting? 

No need to be afraid
A breath of air by your right shoulder
Trying to make you feel me
Let you know I'm there
Hear me 
See me 
Know me
Trying to let you know I care
Practising up my poltergeist tricks
But no body makes it so hard
Scratch the back of your neck
Blow a stream in your ear
Pull a single hair
Oh you will know 
I'm always there
I'll think your thoughts as you do
I'll give you mine to think to 
And you will know I'm close 
Through all of time
A breath of air 
By your right shoulder
Trying to make you feel me
Let your know I'm there
See everything
Hear every sound
Get the feel of your surroundings
Practising up my poltergeist tricks
But no body makes it so hard
Scratch the back of your neck
Pull a single hair
I'll think your thoughts as you do
And you will know
A breath of air
A breath of by your right shoulder
Trying to make you feel me
I'm just a ghost 
Behind your right shoulder

3 Just A Ghost

For the joy of acoustic instruments.

I wrote this when I turned 35 and moved to the UK.
So grateful to have my good friend Johnson joining me - this really feels like a sweet acoustic jam, JR (@johnson-ramm)

JR: added guitars and added vocals
Me: vox, guitars, harmonica and other stuff

Middle of Life (Brian Peters)

I'm in the middle of life
So much has passed
I'm only 35
Save the best for last
Hey, riding through the middle of life

I'm in the middle of love
And I'm settling down
I can't get enough
It goes and comes around
Hey, riding through the middle of love

I'm in the middle of the world
Between the east and the west
And I'm riding the curve
Between the bad and the best
Hey, riding in the middle of the world

I'm in the middle of life
So much has gone
I'm only 35
But I'm moving on
Hey, riding through the middle of life

Middle of Life (w Johnson Ramm)

That’s All
I’m drowning in the pool of life 
feeling the depth there’s no help insight 
my only choice is move towards the light
holding my breath will that make things right 
I don’t know but I have to fight 
I don’t know but I have to fight 

is it a dream —-will someone wake me 
silently scream —-it’s driving me crazy 

I’m over my head and I’m soaking wet 
I do believe that I’m out of my depth
I’m over my head and I’m soaking wet 
over my head
over my head

That's All

This was a great opportunity for me to sing one of my favorite current songs and cover one of my most respected independant musician friend's work . I do hope this inspires you to go and listen to the original version by the man himself

Lyrics :-
I dunno how much more I can take
This media that feeds us must be constipated 
'cause they're full of shit 
Every word that they spew is just lie after lie 
And it's brainwashing you
Into mindless foot soldiers 
To help them control us
To force us to do shit 
They know ain't good for us
Turn you against us, the ones that you love
If you open your eyes you'll see your sisters and brothers, come on 

No need to run, no need to hide
They will not make us lose our minds
We're gonna make it through the night 
To see the light
No need for guns, no need to fight 
They will not crush our souls tonight 
We'll relish victory in time 
Hold the line

I'm trying but it's getting so grim man
Each day I'm getting closer to just pulling the pin
And I don't like this person that's hiding within me
He's the person that I've spent my whole life trying to not be
I don't wanna hate, I was brought up to love
I'm tryna stay true, but I'm feeling the shove
But I won't let them break me 'cause I owe it to you
To stay strong for us both until you see it too, now come on

No need to run, no need to hide
They will not make us lose our minds
We're gonna make it through the night 
To see the light
No need for guns, no need to fight 
They will not crush our souls tonight 
We'll relish victory in time 
Hold the line

They're tryna break us down
To divide us is the only hope they have 
They're tryna break us down
All we need to do is pull together and we win 

No need to run, no need to hide
They will not make us lose our minds
We're gonna make it through the night 
To see the light
No need for guns, no need to fight 
They will not crush our souls tonight 
We'll relish victory in time 
Hold the line

[Headphones recommended]

The babbling noise of Wyming Brook as you climb the kilometre 'footpath' is incessant throughout the year. Slippery and muddy in winter the walk can be tricky (especially for arthritic knee sufferers!). In summer the joys of the ascent can soothe the mind as the only the sound of rushing water can.
6 tracks of improvising oboe.
2 tracks of improvising tenor saxophone.
Additional synth, clarinet, bass loops and beats.
