My Own Stuff

*This cover song is non-monetizing*
Cast of Characters: 

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four-string bass, Paul Reed Smith semi hollow body electric Guitar 
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ and love triangle
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen — production, mix, and mastering

This song, in case you're not familiar, was written by Medeski, Martin, and Wood with guitarist John Scofield, and performed by them on an album eponymously named A Go Go. Josh has always been a huge fan of both MMW and J.S., and has always wanted to play more of their music, as he used to cover a couple of their songs in one of his main old bands. 
  Josh laid down the bass and after going back an forth a couple of times with Ken and his thrilling drums, they established the rhythm section. Soon after, Josh added his jazzy guitar, as well. We needed someone to play John Medeski's part, too, of course. So, we asked JJ if he'd do the honors, which he did in grand fashion. 
  Once it was all laid down, we needed a good mix, and no one is gooder than Stephen, so we asked him to mix it for us, which he did in his always pro manner. 
  This was a lot of fun to record, and we hope that comes through. This is a stripped down Eclectic Collective collab, where most of what we're all doing is improv. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.

A Go Go by Medeski, Martin, Wood and Scofield (Eclectic Collective cover)

In 1970 the worm definitely turned for me..  I was too young for the Summer of Love and Woodstock but come Christmas but I had my Spirograph... Wheel inside a wheel , the journey began, my creative powers unleashed... Finally some psychedelia for us kiddos... my plastic so fantastic....
sound clips ...intro clip from the movie Platoon and the  end clip from The Simpsons...  acoustic guitar/ keys/ shaker track recorded from my phone from Loopz  app......                                                                                                                                    the beat goes on....

Spirographic Eye                              

This story brought me back about a half a century                                                          
Kenner took me on a trip to try their kiddie LSD                                                              
Hypnotic trance, we’d turn and spin a groovy design                                                     
How old does one have to be to blow their minds?                                                        
Even Mom and Grandma they were digging this                                                           
Hogging all the paper sister got real pissed                                                                   
My plastic so fantastic                                                                                                    
Super Spirograph                                                                                                          

Back in 67 there was Lucy in the Sky
A black and white TV set was how we kids got by
Those kaleidoscopic colours now, you never want to stop
Friends peering through my window to see just what I got
Living on a rainbow, escape the world once more
Woodstock in my kitchen, San Francisco on my door
My plastic so fantastic
Super Spirograph

AAHH feel the symmetry                                                                                             
Perfect geometry                                                                                                         
I wanna kiss the sky                                                                                                    
On my Christmas vacation                                                                                 
I got me this art fascination                                                                                                   
Got me a spirographic eye                                                                                                   

You can keep my Lite-Brite I’m not playing underground
I'll be on another planet, though I will not leave this town
Salvador and Pablo they soon will know my name
Or maybe not, no never mind, life still won't be the same
Wheel inside a wheel it spins, precision never lies
The truth is on the paper it’s so pleasing to the eye
My plastic so fantastic
Super spirograph

AAHH feel the symmetry
Such perfect geometry
I wanna kiss the sky
AAHH those Mandala flowers
My psychedelic powers
Got me a spirographic eye

Spiromania, Spiromania,  you'll go full circle, inside your brainiya…..             
Spiromania, Spiromania, tune in, turn on, it entertains ya…..……..

This is a track from my album TALES OF A NOMAD, a collection of impressions from decades of living a nomadic life for professional reasons. It is inspired by the famous ballad by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe from 1782.

The Erlking

 I wrote this song after a trip to Shady Hallow Lake in Indiana. Charlie has some lake front property there and it's great for camping, fishing, roasting marshmallows and playing live concerts. It's very calm and relaxing and a great time was had by all! I wrote the song back in 2010 but the video I put together last year. Check out the video and you will be there with me:

VIDEO - https://youtu.be/Mz_vslWLXaU

I tried to keep the video as true to the lyrics as I could. It was a lot of fun putting it together. I love the tranquility of a full moon casting the silvery glow over the lake! It's very magical! I especially love the fact that there were no I-phones, computers, TV's, ect, ect. No distractions, everything was left in the car! Times like those really heal a person. It was spiritually rejuvenating!  Charlie sang the song very well but my harms were a little flat (like my head!😂, sorry about that!). It was a very cool experience for me and my wife and we got to do some jamming by the fireside on the lake too! Well, I hope everyone enjoys it and thanks for dropping by and listening! That is always appreciated! Summer will be gone soon so for now, let's just bask under the glow of an Indiana Moon!! 🌕🙏✌🏼 

“INDIANA MOON”

SHADEY HOLLOW LAKE,   
LATE SUMMER AFTERNOON,       
GUITARS STRUMMING AFTER SUNSET,    
INDIANA MOON,
                   
SOFT CAMPFIRE GLOW,     
MELLOW SLEEPY LAGOON,    
SUCH SWEET VOICES SINGING UNDER,    
THE INDIANA MOON,

DANGLING OVERHEAD,   
LIKE A SILVERY BALLOON,             
REFLECTED IN THE STILL BLACK WATER,  
INDIANA MOON,

SHADEY HOLLOW LAKE,     
LIKE A WELL-KNOWN TUNE,    
WILL FOREVER BE REMEMBERED,    
INDIANA MOON.

"INDIANA MOON" (Video - https://youtu.be/Mz_vslWLXaU)

Star crossed lovers with an arson problem. A mini musical movie about lovers on the run...
Added to the album: "Curiosities Of Outsider Art" (Sept  2025)

(Act 1: Young lovers on an arson spree)
Lyrics:
She puts the gasoline in my truck
And then we drive down
And we like to burn up
Local buildings
And alleys
And trashcans

She likes to come out with me at night
And burn things down
She can't explain it
It's just how she feels
It's what see needs
Simultaneous release
While burning down the Hardee's (a USA restaurant chain)

We got black magic spells right off the shelf
I have a split personality
And I hate Ourselves
We have  a compulsion
To  blow things up
It's all fucked up
Young arsonists in love
Young Arsonists in love (3X)

We have black magic spells
Right off the shelf
The good ones are mixed in
So it makes it hard to tell
We understanding the poetry
Of burning things up
Burning shit up
All fucked up
Young arsonists in love
(End Act 1)


(Act 2 : Chase and capture)
Young arsonists in love (3X)
We're on the run
She says: let's burn down a Chevron

We have black magic spells right off the shelf
The Doctors say we seem alright
But you know that we can't be helped
The Police ask: Is this behavior carnal?
"Officer"
She said:
"Have you forgotten how to marvel?"
Forgotten how to marvel?

HIGH AGAINST A CLOUD

Friends

I'll be your friend
Good friend of ear
This music sends pure bond of clear
We have woven sound between our brains
Now look we're friends without even names

Fine frequency found neurons of tone
Great honest pounds on divisive lone
We're never alone if we don't pretend
If we feel real
Always real our friend

Friendship
Flush our fake divides
Tend to us by tone
No cruel confides
The real of real
Brave love we steal
Friends are friends
Give heart a meal

Sometimes years they pass us by
Life mutes full presence and eye to eye
Yet still that bond stays true to moments
Befriending unconditional showed us

We may feel dark and down and dull
Some may fly off in new missioned mull
Yet time and life always reminds
True friends transcend any test of time

Friendship
Flush our fake divides
Tend to us by tone
No cruel confides
The real of real
Brave love we steal
Friends are friends
Give heart a meal

Friendship
Flush our fake divides
Tend to us by tone
No cruel confides
The real of real
Brave love we steal
Friends are friends
Give heart a meal

In this song, I first recorded the drums. Then have just a few evocative sounds played to the guitar while trying different effects. So suddenly this sound is born.

I love the exciting diversity of the Soundcloud universe. Here I always discover new, creative music creations and meet many nice people from all over the world. The music unites us all. SC offers me the unique opportunity to publish my own sound ideas. I am still learning and I like to be inspired. Therefore, I like to process finished songs of SC friends to new tracks. 
I don't have a preferred style. No matter whether rock, pop, disco or experimental music. No matter whether analog or digital instruments. The most important thing is that I enjoy it and like it.
Thanks for listening. I appreciate every feedback and every new follower.
Take care and stay healthy!

This is my Repost cloud and a place for some of my musical experiments.
