Ain't No Sunshine

Here's a little JaZz PiANo Sunshine to inJOY.  But it's Bright. So Don't forget yer Shades! :)

And truth be told, this tune was actually born of "What She Said",  
but hey friends... 
don't tell anyone, k.  ;)

   ___________________________

But really, i am totally delighted that more than 113,000 Sound-Clouders have inJoyed this tune over the past year or so.  :-D   

'Listening Response' like this from All over this ol' world puts HuGE sMILEs in my heart.  :-D   
A 'Deep Thank You' to Everyone who has Listened, Tapped their toes, Liked * and Re-posted this one!

Here's what one of you said recently about this tune....

" This one reflects the best elements of jazz -  flowing sounds from improvisation - the search through music for greater connection - a communication never quite the same twice. There's a give and take between the artist & the listener that makes the human condition universal and dynamic. The musicianship makes it all the more personal. To me, your tune embraces all that. "

Wow! Thank you Harry  @Hverheij!  


Again ...  Many Many Thanks to each and all for listening, appreciating, commenting, Re-Posting, and 'Sharing the JOY'.                                

                                              ~  Gary

My Cover version of Gary Clark Jr's Next Door Neighbor Blues

Next Door Neighbor Blues

Willow Weep For Me By Sucole & 6qsax

It’s a summer day, got a water in my hand
 I’m enjoying the band
 Sanity returns once again
 With family and new friends
You would think a job change would stress me 
 But i refuse to let it get the best of me
The blues can be uplifting 
 And comedy depressing
Things not being what they seem
 Can be a blessing

I’ve lived here for so long
Sometimes I burn out then come back strong
Life carries on got another new sound 
When life gets in the way I’ll find my way around

Not long ago I was sitting on a plane
My neck was in some pain
But at least I had the window
I saw the view and I felt better realizing dreams do come true
Now less time on travel means more time to play
We all need a hobby anyway
I never know when inspiration hits
In with  a decent team 
When the evening comes it’s time to blow off steam

It seemed like growing up threw me off track
But I’m finding some solutions and I’m not looking back
I didn’t know when I was younger that my time would be this long
There’s a reason for it all including this song

I'll Find My Way Around

Two Wrongs Don’t Make A Right
55bpm

V1
I can taste my salty tears,
As they pour down my face,
In the deafening silence,
Our minds go through the years,

Pre Chorus
Neither of us talking,
We can’t walk away)
We’ve taken our love for granted, 
And (now) there’s nothing more to say,

(Because)    

CH
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
We’ve both told lies,
About the way we spent our nights,
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
Ok, so we played it smart, but,
Two wrongs won’t make it alright, 

V2
I can hear my heart beating,
As we both swallow our pride,
We want to run to our secret lovers,
To ease the shame inside,

Pre Chorus
Neither of us talking,
We can't walk away,
But we’ve taken our love for granted,
And there’s nothing more to say,

(Because)    

CH
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
We’ve both told lies,
About the way we spent our nights,
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
Ok, so we played it smart, but,
Two wrongs won’t make it alright, 

Bridge
Did we not respect each other
Can we rebuilt the trust,
Maybe we can’t find the happiness,
In the same place it was lost,

Solo

CH
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
We’ve both told lies,
About the way we spent our nights,
Two wrongs don’t make a right,
Ok, so we played it smart, but,
Two wrongs won’t make it alright,

The Only Bird I've Known

I always got my blues second hand. By that I mean by artists that studied the old blues guys and developed their own blues. So I went back and looked at Robert Johnson and picked "Kind Hearted Woman Blues" and wrote my own lyrics to it. This turned out to be a lot harder than I had imagined. Not a good finger picker made this a big challenge and took me some time to be proficient enough (just enough) to record.
It's somewhat raw, but I tried to honor Mr. Johnson as best I could. Hope you enjoy.
My version relates to homelessness.
The picture is from Newsweek.

Lyrics:
Never met dad, wasn’t there, he wasn’t there when I was born.
	Never met him.
Heard he left my mom, when she needed him most.	That’s when he left her
Momma worked three jobs 
Just to make ends meet.	Yes she did.

Have a little sister, a little sister, haven’t seen her in 15 years.
	And that’s a long time.
Always think about her, but she lives too far to visit. Oh I miss her so.
Heard she’s married with two kids.
Hope her husband treats her well.  Yes I do.

<Chorus>
Been down on my luck, since the day I was born. I’ve had it tough.
I’ve been down on my luck, since the day I was born. The very first day
Chicken soup to warm my heart,
A shot of whiskey soothes my mind.  Yes it does.

Work the streets all day, for some change to get me by. Work all day.
People walk right by, never even bother with me, like I’m an invisible man.
Make due with what I have,
Every day is just another day.  Same old thing.

Life in the streets, mostly by myself, can be a lonley and scary place.	Oh yes it can.
I do what I want, noone to order me around, telling me what to do.
Good days and bad days,
Wouldn’t have it any other way.  No sir no.

<Chorus>

Outro:
Sometimes I wish I’d done better, and made a different life.
	Maybe done better.
But then I realize, this is where I belong. This is my place.
Should you pass me by.
Help out and stay to chat, or at least say hello.  Please do.

A light hearted bluesy song about a guy going to a party and not remembering a thing afterwards.

Don’t remember but must have been...   some kind of party 

Invited to a party, last Saturday night
Got me all dressed up, I just-had to look right
Lot’s of pretty women walking about
Thought I did my best to not freak out

Don’t remember but must have been...   some kind of party 

Must‘ve had a drink or two, or maybe many more
My memory’s kind of fuzzy after walkin thru the door
Hope I wasn’t rude and craz to anybody there
Just hoping for a good time, but I guess I didn’t care
 
Don’t remember but must have been...   some kind of party 

Did I do the macarena, or strut the chicken dance
With the O Jays and Kool and the Gang, I just didn’t stand a chance
Could have been the beer, or maybe whisky shots
But I tell you one thing my friend, my head sure hurt lots

Don’t remember but must have been...   some kind of party 

Found a tattoo on my left butt cheek
Really kinda hurts but it sure looks sweet
Not asking any questions about that night
Cause people there all told me it wasn’t a pretty sight

Don’t remember but must have been...   some kind of party

Must Have Been Some Kind of Party

Must Have Been Some Kind Of Party

“My Doobie Brother”

When Michael McDonald sings
Something inside of me
Takes me higher
Calms my fires

We are all Doobie Brothers
We are here all for one another
Gather us up
We are made for love

Songs of the soul
Never grow old
Starlight shining on us

Shining on us
Starlight shining

Steely Dan 
Kenny Loggins
Yah Mo B There
Minute by minute

When I’m down
Lift me up
You’ve got something for all of us
We are all Doobie Brothers
Brothers

Songs of the soul
Never grow old
Starlight shining on us

Shining on us
Shining

Music like this
Timeless and true
Still as good here today
I can’t be forgettin’ you

I sing this tribute to you
My Doobie Brother
Brother, Brother

Steely Dan 
Kenny Loggins
Yah Mo B There Forever 
You always be my Doobie Brother

My Doobie Brother (feat. The 3M Group)

Keit posted this raw, raunchy and rockin' blues collab a while ago and I finally had a chance to crank up the Marshall and join in. He leads us off, I jump in (panned slightly right to separate us) and we trade off as we go--with him taking us home. If you wanna hear more of Keiton, he has some killer tracks here... https://soundcloud.com/keitblues
