Description: Bored of being stuck in bed ill and weak (nothing bad), I plugged my tele and keyboard straight into my iPad. The bass idea is borrowed. Built the rest around it.

Love the bluesy mood and excellent guitar playing.

Oh cool. Perfect way to spend a sick day. Love that you were able to capture this on an iPad. I love technology. :D

Wonderful bluesy piano and guitar. Charming piece of music. :)

just the thing to let some sunshine in the room and get you up : )

My Indifference 

Inspired by Xanylovem's "I Flirted with indifference, Never do that " 

By Tainted Icarus & AL' Z (https://soundcloud.com/al-z-z-z)

Lyrics: 

What happened to the green
And to those who love to dream
About living in peace and harmony

The world turned upside down
Green gives way to the brown
Never learned to leave it be

No, no,  don't you cry 
Wipe the tear drops from your eyes
I've given you a chance or three

The rich they've had their way
And the debts you all must pay
And you can blame that on yourselves

Blame my indifference on yourselves


What happened to the blue
And the creatures that swam with you
Not a drop that's left to drink

Fret not and roll the dice
Ignore the facts the price
Not a lot of time left to think

No, no,  don't you cry 
Wipe the tear drops from your eyes
I've given you a chance or three

The rich they've had their way
And the debts you all must pay
And you can blame this on yourselves

Blame my indifference on yourselves

My indifference on yourselves

My indifference


Notes:  Much could be said about this piece...but probably best covered by...something I care about and something I worry about preserving for those who have yet to arrive. 

As is customary with my work... is it perfect...no...but something I hope will move you none the less!

If you get a moment I would encourage you to stop by Al' Z's profile and share some love with one of Soundcloud's very own guitar gods!  He will refuse that compliment...but its one he deserves! Great artist and certainly a brother!   

I hope everyone is well and staying sane in these crazy times!

Peace and love my brothers and sisters! 
Tainted Icarus

Bedsick Blues

This is the second song going back in time.

The year 2017 was not a musically productive year for me.

It was difficult for me to compose something decent, from my point of view, of course.

The songs they were thinking of were beyond my ability and knowledge to make music and that was frustrating for me. Today I have some sketches from that time that I have not developed yet.

However, I did my first song where I combined piano and electronics in a way that I have unconsciously and slowly developed to this day.

This song is called "Hurted in silence", which was released in 2018, but performed in late 2017.

Although it is dynamic and has a certain rhythm, it really is sad and dramatic. I draw on memories and experiences of people I met who taught me how cruel some people can be to others for no reason, just for the sake of feeling superior, when in reality we all have abilities that make us unique and worth knowing and respecting. .

It is possible that he was thinking of helpless people. I have a close case that will affect me my whole life.

Hurted in silence.

LYRICS BELOW
Here's another preview of the upcoming Penelope's Thrill album--something a little different--a rock song with a tuba solo! When I was recording this song with my Starfire XII electric 12 string, I just felt it was crying out for a tuba solo (which would be about the biggest possible contrast for the chime of a 12 string). Luckily, Ben Jaeger--the amazing guitarist for the Madison, Wisconsin, band Sunspot--is also a tuba virtuoso, and he agreed to take this on.
"L&C Eternally" is about Lonnie and Chloe, who grow up on adjacent farms in southern Wisconsin. (In fact, the whole new album is about them.)
The main guitar I play on this is my 1966 Guild Starfire XII, my choice for the best electric 12 ever built. With some fast-picking and palm-muting, it can make some unique sounds! The Starfire is helped by my Gretsch 2420 and my '78 Guild S-60.
(And, yes, that is me doing the really high backing vocals!)

“L & C Eternally”
Words & Music by Timothy Walsh

She wakes on a Sunday and she don’t know
if she wants to be a person dreaming.
She don’t want it and she don’t go
down to where all the folks are meeting.

She goes down to Lonnie’s farm,
wakes him with a soft punch on his arm
She smiles at him—is she in love?

He puts on the coffee and rubs his eyes,
tells her she’s a pain while he cooks the bacon.
She says cut the crap while she serves the eggs—
says they could be already out there fishing.

	He smothers her toast with strawberry jam,
	feeds her a morsel quick as he can.
	He smiles at her—is he in love?

They don’t take it all the way.
They don’t think about it anyway.
When they’re walking in the woods,
they know they’re living like they should.

Lonnie and Chloe are sitting in a tree—
K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
That’s the jump-rope song they sang
playing in the schoolyard before the bell rang.
	“L & C Eternally”—
	that’s what Lonnie carved upon a tree,
	and Chloe said, “Now we’re in Love!”

I don’t have as much time at the moment to be on Soundcloud. I always appreciate listens and feedback and will respond when I can.

Thank you for visiting. It’s always appreciated. 
You’ll mostly find blues colliding with other sounds, styles and traditions here. Lots of improvisation. Lots of guitar and some other instruments. Hope you find something to enjoy!
