After collaborating with Dan on 'Wordlessly', being keen to try another project and seeing that he was interested in all types of music, I suggested we try a country song. Dan sent me a Banjo/Guitar track that made me instantly think of the Travelling Wilburys, with a Beatles-like rhythm and as I knew I couldn't sing like Roy Orbison the challenge was how to approach this. I knew what I wanted the story to be as the music somehow suggested it straightaway - verse with a longing feeling, urgent pre-chorus and then a release - made me think of a long distance love. The song came easily but it took me a long time to gather up the courage to sing a country-style song. I hope you find me treating this unique form of American music with appreciation and respect. I suggested that Dick might help with his great fiddle playing and thankfully he did. We had a little fun setting up the campfire atmosphere. I'm greatly indebted to Dick and Dan for their huge talents and time. Please check out my collaborators' clouds too if you have time. Cheers, Mark

I’m leavin’ 
’s like grievin’ 
Feels as though my heart’s breakin’ 
I’m workin’ 
Day’s dawnin’ 
Far away from home 

Seven more days till I’m coming on back to you 
Just one week and I’ll be coming on home to you… 
…And when I’m home

I’m prayin’ 
Not strayin’ 
Stayin’ true to my love 
I’m waitin’ 
’ticipatin’ 
When I’ll be back home 

Three more days till I’m coming on back to you 
Few more days and I’ll be coming on home to you 
Only days and I’ll be right there next to you… 
…And when I’m home.

I’m leavin’ 
Completin’ 
My shift is endin’ 
I’m drivin’ 
’s excitin’ 
I’m on my way home.

Couple of hours till I’m coming on back to you 
Few more hours and I’ll be coming on home to you 
Just a few hours and I’ll be right there next to you…

...And when I'm home.

Mesemondó-oorlab-7feb2013-guitar-violin-percussion
violin, guitars, percussion recorded yesterday on Korg D888, mixed with Cubase SL2 & Audacity. "Mesemondó" means Storytelling in Hungarian. This track came from a rhythmic idea I had in my head, from remembering an old Gheorghe Zamfir track.
The violin was made by my Uncle Peter van der Hoeven.

Music has not come easily to me lately and so when I did eventually get round to writing something, Coronavirus - or C19 - rather inevitably played a large part in its creation.  This instrumental features the very talented Alba on guitar, who was an absolute joy to work with.  Please check out his version of our collaboration at https://soundcloud.com/user-775580590. I hope you are all safe and well - and enjoy what we have created here.

This tune came out of a wonderful convergence (happy accident); my collaboration with @devin-locke on "Theme and Variations" and a renewed interest in the painting of Bob Ross. One of the variations I became so taken with, I wanted to develop it into a full track using the original steel string voice of the collaboration then adding nylon string to enlarge the melody line.  "Happy Accidents" was a favorite saying of Bob Ross as he would go about his painting on Public Television.  I saw how it applied to me in how I have composed guitar music over the years;  the unexpected note or chord I first thought a mistake became a turning point for a phrase or melody line.  Some would call it "serendipity", for Bob Ross it was a "happy accident".  If you listen closely toward the beginning, you can hear my granddaughter Lily in the background, a bit of a cameo and very much a happy accident:)

A Moment (Francis Gorgé & Axel Weiß)

Sometimes I just don't pick up on stuff.

Lyrics:
When I saw that fist coming at me
I knew they'd met the end of their hospitality
I'd become a professional dinner guest
Couch surfing pest
They said: Hey man, you've got to move on!
We've giving you ample opportunity 
To get your shit together
You've got to move on!
I hadn't a clue
I've got the oblivious blues

She wanted to try some new things in bed
I thought that meant do the same thing
But twice instead
Oblivious blues
It's what you do when you can't read the mood
Oblivious blues
I'm not reading the room right at all

The preacher say (hey boy!)
Were going to Baptize you for a second time
We've got to get that devil out
We can't tell if your just clueless
Or full of doubt

Oblivious blues
It's what you do when you can't read the room
Oblivious blues

When I see myself in the mirror I see my younger self
A dewy rock & roller
With baby fur
The cashier at the drugstore calls me sir
Oblivious blues
It's what you do when you can't read the room
Oblivious blues

I can't tell when to end this song...
