TWO SELF-TAUGHT MUSICIANS
THAT LOVED AMERICAN ROCK AND ROLL
NAMED JOHN AND PAUL PERFORMED FIRST
OR THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD

THE ADDITION OF GEORGE AND RINGO 
MADE THE FAB FOUR BAND COMPLETE
THE BOYS WERE NOW READY TO GO
PERFORMIN' IN LIVERPOOL AND BEYOND

ATER RECORDING SOME ORIGINAL SONGS
AND PLAYIN' CLASSIC ROCK AND ROLL
ON MANY BBC RADIO PROGRAMS
THEY ROSE TO FAME IN ENGLAND 

AFTER APPEARING IN THE MOVIE
HARD DAYS NIGHT IN SIXTY FOUR
BEATLEMANIA SPREAD AROUND THE WORLD
AND PEOPLE WERE ASKIN' FOR MORE

WHEN I SAW GIRLS SCREAMIN'
WHILE THE BEATLES WERE PLAYIN'
ON THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW
I KNEW BEATLEMANIA
HAD MADE IT TO AMERICA

(GUITAR SOLO)

YEA, WHEN I SAW GIRLS SCREAMIN'
WHILE THE BEATLES WERE PLAYIN'
ON THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW
I KNEW BEATLEMANIA
HAD MADE IT TO AMERICA

SUPER DUPER MISSILES (The N'il Twistas)

We don’t need
Super duper Missiles
We don’t need
firework displays

We don’t need
Super duper Missiles
Sending us back to
The stone age

I heard the news today
Bout’ projectile equipment
That no one’s ever seen before
They say there’s no choice
We just have to do it

It's called the super duper
missile oh yeah
Seventeen times faster
than even a cheetah
If you can believe it
Faster than anything before
It's so incredible
Faster than a cheetah!

But for the sake of those
born just yesterday
I say we shouldn’t play
with firework displays

Or it’ll all go away
I say it will all go away
All that Shakespeare and
beauty and nature,
smart appliances
and dumb artifice
Will be nothing
But a big ol’
Bloody pile of shite!

I SAY NAH! (Dave Bowee)

All men and women created by Go-, you know,
Come on man you know the thing

We shouldn’t fire all those super duper missiles
Instead join hands and let freedom ring

And for the sake of those born just yesterday
We can’t support the current thing

Instead let the cheetahs keep their record
As the fastest moving thing

Cause we don’t need those super duper missiles
Blowing us all to smithereens

I say nah
nah ne nah
nah ne nah

I say nah,
nah ne nah
nah ne nah

Oh I say
nah ne nah
nah ne nah

Super Duper Missiles, I Say Nah! (Feat. Dave Bowee, Live at the 100 Club)

As each November approaches I try to make my own little Remembrance-time tribute.  Seems more relevant as each year passes...

Following the huffing and puffing empire lunacy in the summer of 1914, the next four years would see 40 million casualties, half of them deaths and of those, half were civilian.  

40 million.

40 million tales of poignancy, pain, grief and human tragedy, through times that can often seem littered with coincidence, symmetries …. bookends and mirrors.

In the Military Cemetery of St Symphorien near Mons rests John Parr.  At only five foot three inches and several years under age he (amazingly) managed to enlist in 1912 - hoping to see the world, and get the advertised “two square meals” a day.  He was the first British Army casualty, killed in the battle of Mons aged just 17, his body left behind, fate unknown until much later in the conflict;  the army unable to answer his mother’s letters of enquiry about her “silent” son.

By pure coincidence, John lies just a few yards from the last British soldier to die in the great war.  George Ellison served for four long years including at the same first battle of Mons as John, and most of the famously grinding, attritional infantry battles of the conflict.  His working life bookended by military service, George had first enlisted in 1902, leaving the army in 1912, just as John joined, he became a coal miner, re-enlisting at the outbreak of war to dig mud not coal and fight from trenches he helped excavate.  George was killed just 90 minutes before the armistice took effect at 11:00 on the 11th day of the 11th month.  The futility of the conflict was cruelly illustrated by the fact that George’s war had started and ended at exactly the same place, Mons in Belgium.  They had literally gone nowhere.

As a postscript to progress since "the war to end all wars" the human race is currently reckoned to be engaged in 7 major wars, 15 significant ongoing conflicts and 21 “minor” conflicts (the latter defined as up to "only” 1000 deaths per year).  By way of another macabre bookend, the longest of these has been going on, unbelievably, since the year .... 1918.

As always, this simple ballad is offered as a live one mic one take effort - please excuse the fluffs and gaffes.

Bookends and Mirrors

Sun turned cold ‘cross every sky in the summer of ‘14
The Good Lord shook his head, and he placed it in his hands
Braided declarations flying, whose like was never seen
Lunatics in feathers stockpiled lead, bagged their sand.
Slapstick Mephistopheles, unleashing of his flame
Spiral minds lobotomised in the waltz of the insane
Simple lives unknowing of the mud that would become
A mirror in the resting place of two Holy Mother’s sons.

Signed the line, five years young, fingers crossed behind his back
Chance to see the world, grab a future, two square meals.
At 17, John’s angels sung, first to fall in dawn’s attack
Abandoned and forgotten, deaf to all his ma’s appeals.
Never knew the miner, his bookend pal to be
Fighting down the line, many battles that he’d see
Full four years in trenches, George’s hell lived through them all
Cruelty was smiling wide at England’s last to fall.

In service time they travelled nowhere, nothing to achieve
Embracing 40 million weeping mothers left to grieve
The crime of puffing chest bravado beggared to believe
Hall of mirrors seeping others’ blood of the innocent naive.

Now John and George lie facing each to seek their mirrored peace
Raise my eyes and brim a tear for the lessons never learned
Pray God, don’t ever let them know man’s insanity but increased
The war to end all wars a mere sequel oft’ returned 
By comedies of leathered fools stuck on infinite repeat
Bemedalled and bejewelled, they prosecute their moral defeat
But here, on sallow turf twixt heroes, broken mirror in my broken hand
Met by my own broken eyes, I still fail to understand.

Lyrics:

New World Order knows what's best for you
YouTube feed knows what you need
Shares and Likes the new worlds currency 
Did you figure it out? That It all means nothing!!

I never thought the world would ever end!!
Now machines decide what's on my mind!!

New vaccines made from spiked protein
Ministry of Truth decides what's real
Mask mandates keep your family safe
Did you figure it out? You all mean nothing!!

I never thought the world would ever end!!
Now machines decide what's on my mind!!
I never thought the world would ever end!!
Now machines decide what's on my mind!!

WE USED FEAR TO CONTROL THE WORLD
WE USED FEAR TO CONTROL THE WORLD
WE USED FEAR TO CONTROL YOUR WORLD
WE USED FEAR TO CONTROL YOUR WORLD

WE USED FEAR TO CONTROL OUR WORLD!!

At Worlds End

A fusion of composition and live playing meld together, leading to the Trojan sound. The pianist and original composer (Sunyata) teases with a variety of ascending and descending runs. Intertwined we meld our guitars. Chris's arrangement, slow attack chords and Sunyata's double bass keep the pace lively & creative.
