That's Not Right - Jamie Rhind

made for good headphones

method: harp, drumsticks, voice, shoegaze, etc
narration: in my mind, there's been this convoluted, overly-complex story playing out about a diplomat losing a note on a sidewalk and media spinning its content into disrespect and all that .... when all this poem really is about is a reminder to mentally adapt to and cater for the usual range of diversity, I guess.

poem / copyright jo richter:

all those who come here
hold dear what they fear
most in attendance
are in ego-state trance
some of those present
are neurodivergent
while we'd long to see
more of those thriving on empathy

Flower Power

I have posted this song some years ago, but I decided to do some new recordings on bass, synths and piano. 
Some latin vibes inspired by Carlos Santana.
Lets go:)

Pacific Crossing.  Oddvar Solheim guitar (instrumental version)

This term means having anxiety and fear of being loved.
Intimately, I have felt broken by this world, unlovable, unheard.
But music has a way of bandaging the wounds.
Let these melodies console and commiserate any pain with hope.

In these, the last days, passionately strive for what fills your void, fam

The Smoking Trout continue our tale of the Quest for the Holy Dumpling. This time we're joined by our biggest crew yet! 

This one was a lot of fun!  I know when Jeff or Terry say there's a contribution from Jo, Tot, or someone new that it's gonna be special. This one has all of the above.  Really cool that there's 5 different countries representing here.  Terry did a fantastic job, as did Jeff, at pulling the collaborators and the mix together.  Happy to be a part of this one!

LYRICS

(Part I - Vocals by Neil Harding / Words by Jo Richter)

Those individuals on wheels had a hard time finding their feed. Hungry they were - for that special dumpling that connects you to anything pagans and believers alike deem holy. Although endowed with holographic properties, you can't walk on clouds unless they are numbered. They kept drifting upwards, therefore, slowly upwards until they hit the ceiling called Mars. Mars always happens to be where your head needs something to bump against. That's the nature of war.

(Part II - Words & Vocals by Stonerjazz)

It turned out
there was never any doubt
about
how it was gonna be

ya know it's hard sometimes
to get a grip
drifting in the corridors of time

everybody on the bus
runnin hard and hot
some of us holograms
except for Gus
he's an Alien from outer space
waiting for the rendezvous
at the window of the launch
in Oaxaca down in Mexico
Where the magic mushrooms grow

And his bus
a shuttle from the mother ship
disguised as a 1983 GMC
infinity
He's from another Galaxy
searching for the holy dumpling
just like you and me.

Hope we find that dumpling soon
maybe it's on the moon
traveling at the speed of light
we could get there sometime later on tonight

(Part III - Vocals by Wivresse)

Except for Gus (Smoking Trout's HOLY DUMPLING #9)

Cast of Characters:
Llanpsych– @llanpsych –Tez–bass, beat, composition, mix, and production
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell –electric piano, synth
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –synth
Beats are by YonkomoFlaction123 via Looperman
This is really a creation of Tez, who put it together from a mix of JJ's and Josh's parts on the high end. He was kind enough to share it with JJ and Josh, and have us be a part of this psychedelic whirlwind. Tez gave Josh and JJ a bass line attached to a house beat. They both came up with parts that were wildly different than what you hear. But that's just one example of the magic that Tez's wields. He can bend sounds and parts to his will and create something totally different from the original, new and exciting. We all hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Lyrics:

The road to happiness is difficult to find
You can get lost along the way..
You have to make an effort
Keep an open mind
And happiness will come to you one day..

If there is lightning and thunder
And the rain pours down
You can still smile through your tears..
Roar like a lion
Dance in the rain
Let joy be your outfit to wear..

If you only demand
With nothing to give
Unable to find pleasures in small things..
You will never feel happy
It will only get dark
And you will miss out what life can bring..

If there is lightning and thunder
And the rain pours down
You can still smile through your tears..
Roar like an lion
Dance in the rain
Let joy be your outfit to wear..

Road To Happiness W/PJ Project

One minute things are going fine
But life can turn on a dime
Every day you roll the dice
And sometimes you find yourself on thin ice

You go for a routine medical check
And they find something you didn’t expect
You’ve been eating healthy food you take a daily jog
Now you’re wondering if you’ll outlive your dog

You’ve been working so hard for all these years
 but what do you have to show for it
All these things you bought but what do you have to show for it

Some people spend their lives accumulating wealth
But what’s the point of money if you don’t have your health

It’s nice to set some long term goals and think about your future days
But sometimes you need to take a step back and make sure you’re on the right highway

You’re hanging by a thread that you used to think was a thick rope
Your road was very flat but now you’re climbing a steep slope

You get up in the morning and you go to work 
You get up in the morning an you go to work
You get up in the morning and you go to work
Five days a week

You’ve been working so hard for all these years
but what do you have to show for it
All these things you bought but what do you have to show for it


You wake up every morning  go  about your day
Sometimes you wonder if it’s goanna be okay
You try to take it one day at a time
Some days are bad others are fine

Incidental finding, life threw you a curve
You're driving down the highway and you're trying not to swerve.
Incidental finding, life threw  you a curve
You're driving down the highway and you're trying not to swerve.

Incidental Finding
