Another wonderful song by Jim Barrett, another collaboration with Roger Whittlesey, who played piano and drums, and sung the remarkable background vocals, not to forget Noel Barrett on bass. I added some saxophones. And there's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyw9tMktmjs

Spirits Are Dancing (2025) Remastered

Written by James Geer
Inspired by The Trailer Park Boys
Dedicated to Ozzy, RIP

I’m moving on to Sunnyvale 
I’ve had enough of life’s travails 
I’ll pack it in, forward my mail

I’ll hang with Ricky and the boys
Raise some hell, make a little noise
Drink all day, if that’s my choice 

A shed like bubs is all I’ll need
A couple kitties there to feed
Drink some vodka, smoke some weed

I’ll eat fish sticks and play the blues
Lay in the street till I come to
Make hot cakes on a stolen barbecue 

The simple life is all I seek
Party with the boys 8 days a week
Drink till I fall down, smoke till I reek

Sunnyvale

Simplicity - Summer Sun

A warm and gentle melody, as if someone is holding your hand.

With you

I'm a composer, working from a 3' x 5' studio (some may call it a dinette) in a 5th wheel camper, while traveling the United States. I've been on the road for six years, so most of my recent work will have come from a different state (of mind and location) during my travels.

Music makes me feel better about everything. I don't know that I'm ever happier than when I am creating. I sometimes wonder if creativity isn't one of the primary keys to happiness. Do you ever feel better than when you say, "Look what I did."? This phrase magically conjures the purest sense of childlike joy.

Music works for every part of our lives. We all have music for when we are sad, happy, celebrating, meeting others, when we are alone, and even when we are lonely. Did a song come to mind as you read each of those situations? I remember the first song I ever heard on the radio, on my first bus ride to kindergarten. One of my favorite musical memories is playing in a band for steel beach on the flight deck of the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz.

I love telling stories with music. Everybody loves John Coffey in the Green Mile, but Mr. Jingles should have a song commemorating his reaching and joining the circus at Mouseville. If you agree, join me for this and similar journeys. The music here is synthetic, but as real as you would choose to have it.

My music most often lands on Soundcloud first and is inspired by one of my favorite communities, Naviar Haiku:
https://www.naviarrecords.com/about/naviar-haiku
I find writing to a Haiku prompt sufficiently limiting and exquisitely inspiring.

Naviar is a music community and label. Through regular publications, open projects and events, we explore the connection between experimental music and traditional Japanese poetry.
