Here's some wonderful new music from the UK's fine Andy "Sterling" McLean.  Andy created the entire tune, playing each instrument and then asked me to join him with a solo, which I did with a piano to match the piano comping he had added.  Andy started this over 20 years ago and broke it out in our new year to suggest the new start to something great.  

Follow Andy's very fine woodwind playing here, as well as his many jazzy compositions: https://soundcloud.com/mcleanaf

And to our listeners, have a healthy and happy 2024 and beyond - thanks for all your time listening, for your comments and for your shares.

Andy McLean / Jamie Rhind - New Beginning

Lyrics below by Tony Harris - US
Melody, Vocals, Music & Mix by Mike Fox - UK

WHEN HE LOOKED IN THE MIRROW
ALL HE COULD SEE WAS SORROW
THE YEARS HAD TAKEN A TOLL
ON THIS MANS LONELY SOUL

THE YEARS HAD PASSED HIM BY
NOW HE WAS WANDERING WHY
HE NEVER STOPPED TO SMELL THE ROSES
AND MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICES

(CHORUS)
DON'T LOOK IN THE LOOKING GLASS
YOU MAY NOT LIKE WHAT YOU SEE
DON'T LOOK IN THE LOOKING GLASS
HE MAY LOOK JUST LIKE YOU AND ME

HE NEVER SPENT TIME WITH FAMILY
ONLY VISITING THEM OCCASIONALLY
ALWAYS MOVING FROM TOWN TO TOWN
WHEN NEEDED HE WAS NEVER AROUND

THE GRASS WAS ALWAYS GREENER
ALWAYS CONSIDERED A LONER
AND WHEN HE FOUND THE OTHERSIDE
HE NEVER SEEMED TO BE SATISFIED

(REPEAT CHORUS)

HIS BODY WAS LAID TO REST
UNDER THE BIG SKY OUT WEST
THE BURIAL PLACE IS UNKNOWN
SAD TO THINK THAT HE DIED ALL ALONE

(REPEAT CHORUS)

You're  Awesome (featuring Daniele Turani)

Humans have a gene that favors curiosity, so-called adventure, and when this gene is activated, they want to leave their comfort zone and ``want to know what lies ahead.'' Driven by curiosity, I constructed a new imagination.

Curiosity repaints me (297)

So I LOVE Middle Eastern mythology and history. This story is about a beautiful Egyptian princess named Amirah. She is as kind and graceful and selfless as she is beautiful.  A true pearl of the Nile! She loves her kingdom and her people.. But a dark time has fallen on her beloved country a year long drought has decimated the crops and left animals barren. So to save her people, Amirah must marry a Sheikh from a distant land...  While he is neither  handsome nor kind, he has  wanted her for himself..  his precious jewel... so he makes a deal with Amirah's father to marry her in exchange provide  crops and  supplies to the people of Egypt to weather the  drought. With a heavy heart,  our selfless heroine knows what she must do...  this... is her contemplation before her wedding day...  in song....  enjoy :) :P

Pearl Of The Nile

Lyrics derived from Antonio de Guevara (1480-1545). The text was written around 1539 in Latin. De Guevara had already had his experiences at the court of Charles the Fifth. The section from which the text is taken was a treatise on the government court, a critique.

Lyrics:

Farewell world, 
`Cos you are not to be trusted
Still nothing to hope from you
In your house the past has already vanished,
The present disappears under our hands,

The future has never begun,
The most enduring falls,
The strongest thing breaks,
And the most eternal thing comes to an end; thus,
That you are a dead man among the dead,
And in a hundred years you will, not for an hour, 
Let us live 

Farewell world,
`Cos you will take us captive,
And will not let us go again,
You bind us and do not dissolve us again;
You afflict and do not comfort,
You steal and give nothing back,
You accuse us and have no cause,
You condemn and hear no party;
So you kill us without judgment,
And bury us without dying! 

With You there is 
No joy without sorrow,				
No quietness without discord,
No love without suspicion,
No peace without fear,
No abundance without shortcomings,
No honor without blemish,
No good without evil conscience,
No status without complaint,
And no friendship without falsehood,
(Farewell World)

(Farewell World)
...

God bless you world,
`Cos in your house the great lords and favorites will be overthrown,
The unworthy brought forth,
The traitors with mercy regarded,
The faithful placed in corners,
The wicked left alone,
And the innocent condemned,

The wise and qualified are given leave,
And to the unskillful great pay,
The obstinate are believed,
And the honest and upright have no credit,
Everyone does what he wants,
And no one what he should do

(God bless you World)
…
for no one is content or satisfied with you, 
if he is poor, he wants to have; 
if he is rich, he wants to count for much; 
if he is despised, he wants to rise high;
if he is wronged, he wants revenge; 
if he is in favor, he wants to command; 
if he is vicious, he only wants to be of good courage.
(Farewell World)
(Farewell World)

Farewell World (collab with Xian3)
