great live feel to this blistering cover!!

Haha, Excellent Hot Stuff!!!!  Fucking hell Donna, see what you could have done! (I'm Joking Donna! 😜) 💖👍🍺😁

this might be the first time that I've heard this song and actually liked it-so bravo!

Hellll yeah !! One of my favorites man. Sounds fantastic

Eclectic Collective have a fabulous instrumental track this week which is an interpretation of a Medeski, Martin & Wood song. Josh, JJ & Ken are the musical Jedi and the Shaman masters it. Epically jazzy psychedelic stuff

A Go Go (Connect with the lads easily here)

This song was inspired by "The Cold Heart" (German: Das kalte Herz), a fairy tale written by Wilhelm Hauff. It was published in 1827 in a collection of fairy tales that take place within the narrative of The Spessart Inn.
Although written almost 200 years ago, the described conflicts of mankind are still up-to-date, maybe even more than before. Preferring status und prosperity over humanity is something which has become socially accepted.

Special thanks for prelistening and precious ideas to my dear friend Gary Reeves!

Lyrics
Peter was in the charcoal business
never in peace with the live he was living
made a deal with the forest spirit
Three wishes and a new life given

Descending to the darkest corners of humanity
what was it you were thinking of when you lost your pity
 
Inside your stone cold heart
You‘ve built a world of disregard

It did not play out like you were whishing for
glassworks went down and you needed much more
sold your heart to Dutch Mike to keep living
a heart of stone and the fortune you were given

Descending to the darkest corners of humanity
what was it you were thinking of when you lost your pity

Inside your stone cold heart
You‘ve built a world of disregard

Flourishing business kept you going
but your smile was eternally frozen
when your drivers faded and you had murdered love
nothing left there but an empty heart

Descending to the darkest corners of humanity
what was it you were thinking of when you lost your pity

Inside your stone cold heart
You‘ve built a world of disregard

Stone Cold Heart

For all my cancer & chemo comrades in Limerick University Hospital and for Pat.

I started this piece a few years ago, and Doina was kind enough to write some beautiful violin parts for what is quite a simple chord progression really. I didn’t have lyrics and life events overtook writing music. I picked it up recently wanting to mark that life event, and an upcoming crossroad.

Behind that curtain

This is another cover of an oldies tune, 'Another Saturday Night*', written by the great Sam Cooke (he wrote the song while staying in a hotel where no female guests were allowed). But this version is a cover of another cover - Cat Steven's version of the song. Cat's version is more upbeat, with a bit of a Latin feel to it. Being a fan of both versions, I threw in a sample of Cooke's original at the very end, and the voices from the studio recording at the very beginning, including a count off by Cooke himself, just for fun. I REALLY enjoyed doing this one, and hope it shows in the recording. Thanks for listening.

All instruments played by me on keyboard:
-organ
-acoustic guitar
-flute
-trumpets
-alto & tenor sax
-piano
-bass
-percussion
-drums
-lead & backing vocals

*Song written by Sam Cooke

(apologies for my absence from Soundcloud lately; work & some recent vacation time keep getting in the way. how dare they!)

Another Saturday Night (Cat's cover)

Cast of Characters: 

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four-string bass, Paul Reed Smith semi hollow body electric Guitar 
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ and triangle
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen — production, mix, and mastering

This song, in case you're not familiar, was written by Medeski, Martin, and Wood with guitarist John Scofield, and performed by them on an album eponymously named A Go Go. Josh has always been a huge fan of both MMW and J.S., and has always wanted to play more of their music, as he used to cover a couple of their songs in one of his main old bands. 
  Josh laid down the bass and after going back an forth a couple of times with Ken and his thrilling drums, they established the rhythm section. Soon after, Josh added his jazzy guitar, as well. We needed someone to play John Medeski's part, too, of course. So, we asked JJ if he'd do the honors, which he did in grand fashion. He also added some triangle hits you can listen for, that add a little bit more pizzaz to the whole thing. 
  Once it was all laid down, we needed a good mix, and no one is gooder than Stephen, so we asked him to mix it for us, which he did in his always pro manner. 
  This was a lot of fun to record, and we hope that comes through. This is a stripped down Eclectic Collective collab, where most of what we're all doing is improv. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.

A Go Go - Eclectic Collective

Fight Fire with Fire

Text:
[Intro – spoken, gritty]  
In the beginning…  
there was nothing but silence.  
Then someone cranked the amp…  
and the whole damn world caught flame!

[Verse 1]  
A kid in a basement with a second-hand axe,  
blew out the fuse, never looked back.  
Neighbors screaming, windows shake,  
the night caught fire when the ground began to quake.  

[Pre-Chorus]  
He struck that chord like a hammer in the dark,  
and every spark  
became a mark—  
a lightning scar across the heart!

[Chorus]  
LET THERE BE FIRE!  
LET THERE BE NOISE!  
LET THERE BE THUNDER FOR THE GIRLS AND THE BOYS!  
TURN IT UP HIGHER!  
LET THE EARTH ROCK!  
IF YOU WANT A REVOLUTION—  
LET THERE BE ROCK!

(solo)

[Verse 2]  
Crowds in the alley, boots in the street,  
the drums hit hard like a runaway beast.  
Sweat starts dripping, amps start to roar,  
the whole place shakes—  
they’re screaming for more!  

[Pre-Chorus]  
A riff like a chainsaw biting through steel,  
you feel it in your bones,  
you feel it for real—  
it burns like truth you can’t conceal!

[Chorus]  
LET THERE BE FIRE!  
LET THERE BE NOISE!  
LET THERE BE THUNDER FOR THE GIRLS AND THE BOYS!  
TURN IT UP HIGHER!  
LET THE EARTH ROCK!  
IF YOU WANT A REVOLUTION—  
LET THERE BE ROCK!

(solo)

[Bridge – spoken, wild]  
And the amps blew…  
and the lights died…  
but the crowd screamed  
like a storm in the night.  
So he plugged into the dark—  
AND THE DARK LIT UP!

[Final Chorus – doubled, shouted]  
LET THERE BE FIRE!  
LET THERE BE NOISE!  
LET THERE BE THUNDER FOR THE GIRLS AND THE BOYS!  
TURN IT UP HIGHER!  
LET THE EARTH ROCK!  
‘CAUSE WHEN YOU FEEL THAT WILD DESIRE—  
LET THERE BE!  
LET THERE BE!  
LET THERE BE ROCK!!!

Howdy,

Welcome to TBD.

Wow. What a place we have here. Yes we've been invaded by shitty AI music & tools which I am strongly against the use of at all until it's regulated and labelled properly but that said... SoundCloud is still Aaaaaamazing. We can weed out the messers and with a small web of genuine artists it is incredibly inspiring. Don't lose faith in your art because of the influx of fake, we need artists to shine through and continue saving and evolving artistic work and freedom. Just keep shining your real music. I have seen NOTHING yet that challenges a real artists creativity from AI or it's prompters. If anything it just confirms the path I took was worth it and is the only way to the full therapeutical effect music and writing can deliver your being!

You just need to PRACTICE a lot!

All these creations are made by hard work and years upon years upon years of practice and trying to explain this world and the human condition to myself in the process through poems & songs.

Thanks for all of your wonderful support.

Peace and Love to Everyone,

🫛
