Beautiful..evocative and atmospheric …giving me gunslinger vibes 🤘🏻💜🤘🏻

Really cool track! Loved it!👍😎✌🏼

I think that the song is fantastic just as it is now:)!

Thoughtful and evoking beauty, lovely guitar.

Great track. Love the guitar in this track too.

Where did this crazy cover come from?!
Until a couple of years ago I played in a group of friends, an acoustic quartet consisting of an acoustic guitar, double bass (me), a singer and a percussionist. We played a repertoire of rock and pop covers from all times, heavily rearranged to suit acoustic needs. In addition to rehearsals and concerts, a significant part of the time was spent proposing and choosing the repertoire.
There were always great discussions, everyone had their own musical background, their tastes and their desire to impose themselves on others (behind every musician there is always a little egomaniac hiding :)). Furthermore, since it was all acoustic, there were also inevitable technical limitations to consider when choosing the songs. In short, every proposal was always followed by great debates, to the point that we had to establish severe rules in the choice with votes, with the right of veto, like United Nations resolutions :))
There was a moment when we needed to enrich the repertoire with more lively and rhythmic songs, because the natural tendency in small acoustic cover groups is always to rearrange the songs with an elegant, composed (and a little soporific) sound like Bossa or soft jazz.
Among the various proposals I made there was this 80's pop-dance hit that I have always liked and to be more convincing and overcome their skepticism that time I decided to present my candidacy with a demo recorded by myself... So, courageously I even had to sing it!!
What you listen is therefore that original demo for my group: an acoustic guitar, a double bass, a voice to which I have recently added some choirs.
Fortunately, at the end, the effort was rewarded, this bizarre cover won the elections and became a permanent fixture in our concerts.

I know, I skipped some words here and there, my pronunciation is what it is, and I guess it sounds funny to you more or less like to us Italians when we listen to one of our operas sung by a foreign singer... but who cares, it was so fun to sing it, forgive me! :)

Just like my version, isn't it?:)))

A special thank you to Debra, she knows why.

IN MEMORY 

Blessed be Thou for all the joy
My soul has felt to-day!
O let its memory stay with me
And never pass away!


I was alone, for those I loved
Were far away from me;
The sun shone on the withered grass,
The wind blew fresh and free.


Was it the smile of early spring
That made my bosom glow?
'Twas sweet, but neither sun nor wind
Could raise my spirit so.


Was it some feeling of delight,
All vague and undefined?
No, 'twas a rapture deep and strong,
Expanding in my mind!


Was it a sanguine view of life
And all its transient bliss—
A hope of bright prosperity?
O no, it was not this!

Sound Of Memory. Oddrun Eikli & Debra Buesking

The man in the cover picture is the protagonist of a famous comic series in Italy that I adored as a child. His name is Tex Willer: a ranger, but also the chief of the Navajos tribe.
Unfortunately (or luckily) I unintentionally deleted the Audacity project file of this track. So improving it is impossible. I could make it worse, so I leave it as it was already a few years ago.

A Guy Like Me

song

A re orchestrated version of Summer of 67 posted previously .

67 Version 2

I am an elderly university professor of history who enjoys playing and composing: unpretentious, just for fun. As a consequence, the most of my recordings are handcrafted and largely imperfect.
Thank you in any case for stopping here to listen to something; in the description area you can find often explanatory notes or lyrics translations.

Here I found a real widespread community of great musicians and a lot of good music to listen to; you can be sure that any liking, commenting or reposting by me is a consequence of careful listening to the tracks. Obviously, for this very reason, I am not interested in collecting free ‘likes’ without real listening.

Update (2024, September 9). Completed the "AI & (fake) songwriter project". Here: https://soundcloud.com/mick-hansan 
I consider those who use AI without declaring it to be frauds in this community.

P.S.: A prayer, a humble request to those who publish songs: use the description area to make the lyrics available... This would make listening to them more complete and enjoyable!
