Such depth and clarity. Quite touching, Davide.

This music is so pure and soulful... Absolutely impressive work, a real pleasure listening to it.

For me George Best was the greatest player that ever lived, but suffered from being better at what he did than everybody else. 
At one time in my life I think I was within an inch of becoming an alcoholic and yes at the time it solved all my problems. I was rescued by a beautiful women but unfortunately George was not.
He was one of my greatest heroes and I spent a large amount of my early years trying to emulate some of his football skills. I was given the opportunity to meet him on two occasions and he was a really nice genuine man and I was really upset when he died.
My brother Brian and me completed this recording in one afternoon and he came up with the fantastic bass line, it was always our intention to develop it and take it further.

This is my tribute to George Best

LYRICS

Yes I drank the bottle dry
Please don't ask the question why
Just except this drunken man
Drinking for another plan

Couldn't take things in my stride
Second place it hurt my pride
Told to take some time to think
Think I'll have another drink

CHORUS

Yes he's the greatest he really has it all
The king of any man who ever kicked a ball
He makes the head lines every time he shows his face
I wonder if they know our hero up in space
If not it's just a disgrace

He's here
Georgie   
No fear

Tried to force me to retire
From the bottle I admire
Knew I'd lose out in the end
Destroying me or my best friend

Belong to no one else but me
I'm not public property
I know I have myself to blame
Life is not my favourite game

CHORUS

It's not as sad as you might think
Not looking for a missing link
And I don't need an open door 
Cause all I have to do is poor

Georgie Georgie come back Georgie
Georgie Georgie come back Georgie

Best Of Both Worlds

A beautiful place in southern Minnesota.

Lyrics:

A breeze touches a Sunday afternoon, a freckled-face boy serves pie with a spoon
They’ll be closing up real soon at the Blue Earth River, flowing beneath my shoes
There’s a young girl playing on a swing, dad says stop as he pulls on the rings
She doesn’t want to leave, she cries and she chants, at the Blue Earth River, heaven’s here in the flesh

I don’t have a thought of any depth, I’m just thinking of one more step
To the Blue Earth River where my heart resurrects
 
There’s a jukebox with only old tunes, a piano in the corner, Buddy playing Blue Moon
His heart is here, not just passing through
At the Blue Earth River, I’m listening to the truth
I’m sitting in the grass, soaking the sun’s day glow
Letting the day pass, nothing I need to know
I watch our boy kick up sand
At the Blue Earth River, he’ll grow up to be a man
 
I worked in the city for wages unkept, I didn’t miss a thing when I left
to the Blue Earth River where my heart resurrects
 
I came here for the lost and found, Blue Earth River opened its mouth
It said here’s where you put your pin
At the Blue Earth River, a new life begins
At the Blue Earth River, a new life begins

Blue Earth River

Seaside Hostel

I'm by the seaside
Where earth meets water
Sunshine glows brightly
Against the blue plaster

Of the aged walls of 
The Seaside Hostel
It's full of character,
And lively as well
Holiday-makers stop to stay a spell
In cozy rooms of
The Seaside Hostel
x2

When we're here together
On this tiny isle
I feel that it's special
Staring yond the horizon

I hear cries of the gulls,
And late around midnight,
Pacifically lull
So serene in the moonlight,

I'm by the seaside
Where earth meets water
Sunshine glows brightly
Against the blue plaster

Fireworks late at night
Make the night sky alight

Bursting into the aether
It brings forth a smile

I hear cries of the gulls,
And late around midnight,
Pacifically lull
So serene in the moonlight,

Clouds move with the breeze
The peacefulness of this place
Puts my mind at ease

I built such a seaside hostel
in my mind,
To return to whenever
And worries subside

Journey through an array of intricate synth melodies, grainy amplified piano and guitars, heavy synth bass, haunting vocal elements and blended electronic beats to arrive at the strong place within... 
Thanks to Ernest Hemingway, who said "The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places." 
Never give up 🤍

Dopo aver esiliato Dio, per abbracciare una visione scientista e meccanicistica della vita, la modernità ha imposto di scambiare la stravaganza per normalità, punto finale di una bizzarra concezione di progresso che offre all’Uomo una parvenza di libertà illusoria e apparente, che nasconde, invece, una schiavitù drammatica e sostanziale.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
After having exiled God, to embrace a scientistic and mechanistic vision of life, modernity has forced us to exchange extravagance for normality, the final point of a bizarre conception of progress that offers Man a semblance of illusory and apparent freedom, which hides, instead, a dramatic and substantial slavery.

What A Beautiful Day - OMCB [Music Video]

To save the human race from all evils,
Gods said to Pandora: we give you this box to keep
and do not open this box, do not open this box! 
Pandora's curiosity opened the box
and all the evil in the world crawled out.
She quickly closed it, leaving only hope inside,
and the pessimism of "false expectation". 
The evil is out there, but still there
is hope for better.
Can we fix that?

"When Summer sun shines on your face
By Castle Walls I feel your grace
When bees alight on golden thrones
By Castle Walls 'twixt sea and stone"
---------------------------------------------------
The Gertrude Jekyll garden, near to Lindisfarne Castle is the focus of this track. Now owned by the National Trust, originally it was a walled garden that was first constructed by troops manning the castle, presumably as far back as the 1500s or 1600s, to grow food.

In 1902, the Country Life magazine founder and owner Edward Hudson took out a lease from the Crown on Lindisfarne Castle and commissioned his friend, the architect Edwin Lutyens, to transform the Castle into a holiday home in which Hudson could entertain during his summer visits.

In 1911, Hudson decided to restore the old walled garden to use as a place to enjoy. Lutyens brought in his regular collaborator, Gertrude Jekyll to undertake the design work

This track is now part of "The Pilgrims Way Project" exploring the history and natural world of Lindisfarne.

Background

In my head I had the idea of trying to capture the feeling of guests of Hudson, (or modern day visitors) walking around the garden on a late Summer afternoon, possibly stopping to listen to the bees, busy at work, collecting honey.

The poem came out of that thought which then inspired the musical direction of the piece.

I imagined the first part, idyllic, tranquil, moving to section where you just focus in on the bees and everyday life slips away for a while. This is followed by a grander 'promenade ending', where I imagined Hudson's guests strolling around in the late afternoon sun.

By Castle Walls - 2024 Remix and Remaster

Crillon Compositions is a deeply personal orchestral suite, born from a journey that began with musical sketches and youthful piano doodles at age 19 at the famed Hôtel de Crillon , and culminating in a sweeping symphonic vision as the composer clebrated his 35th birthday at the Crillon. These newly revised and recorded works honor the enduring influence of French classical tradition—Debussy & Ravel—infused with the modern emotional landscapes of the grandeur of Rachmaninov. From brooding chamber pieces to cinematic overtures, the album embodies the conflict and beauty of legacy, identity, and time beneath the marbled hush of a Parisian palace.

Track 17 Debussy Détour Huit

The composition of this piece came almost instantly and was the longest voice note freestyle I have done so far. It definitely came from somewhere or someone.
