Nobody’s fault, but mine…a song about culpability… accused or accurate… nobody perfect here, except LJC… you can lay blame, or repent… but ultimately it’s up to you and me and our choices… just saying 😎🙏🙏🙏

Mea Culpa

"Indigenous" marks a return to the sound of my 2021 tribal/world percussion album "Vibrations Empowered Within". 
https://moodexhibit.bandcamp.com/album/vibrations-empowered-within

After a break I had a desire to revisit the sound palette that characterized that album.
For those that have resonated with the album I hope this is a welcome return, and for those that have not experienced the album, I welcome you to some free codes:

Mood Exhibit - Indigenous

the tunnel, after the stairs

part 1 & 2.
This was one of the earlier bits of music I recorded shortly after a 20 year (hard to believe) 'break' from writing music. It's also one of the very few songs that were just solo piano and which I could play without multiple tracks. So it was surprising that this took only about 2 days from initial conception to final recording - even though I've revised it a few times since then, as usual (thus this latest re-upload).  I may try to add some strings to this one day, which I think would work nicely.  


All comments welcome, and don't be shy to be critical or suggest ideas to help me improve. :)

Me and Jesus was written by Tom T. Hall and released in 1972. Many artists have recorded the song after Tom recorded it. The song has become a very popular Country and Gospel song.

The Smoking Trout collaborative's Quest for the Holy Dumpling, episode 7 finds our traveling band of protagonists hitting on some good luck after we left them 'out of food and out of gas' at the end of the last installment of our work-in-progress concept album.

On this one, I came up with a beat and synth score as step 1. Then Jeff added some fantastic vocals and Stephen brought in a killer guitar groove. We always have tons of fun making these, hope you will enjoy listening as well!

Lyrics:

Sally ls a hero, found a hundred dollar bill and a sack of Skittles
ln between the Cushions of the couch-
Sid and MaryAnn are at the local bloodbank
peddling pints of plasma
for fifty bucks a pop-
Maurice and Nostradamus are at the western Union
picking up three hundred dollars
from their grandma ln Tacoma

Gus ls working on the Bus
ln the episcopalian Parklng lot
and even got two hundred dollars from the congregation-
Stu he's got a Visa card which he never uses
Ubered over to the lucky Ladles where he's playing black jack
hoping for a Major Parlay--Hoping for a major Parlay-----

Larry and Roberta, while beggin for some buckshees
and playln muslc on the corner at the farmers market
met a Sufi sitting on the sidewalk
serenely spouting scripture from the 
Transcendental Dharma of the Holy Dumpling

Along with baking soda, salt, wheat and water
A heavy leavening of responsibility ls required ln the making--
and some mushrooms only growing ln Oaxaca
lf you wanna make that dumpling, she sald
you're gonna have to go
To Mexico

A Major Parlay (Smoking Trout's HOLY DUMPLING #7) w/ Stonerjazz & TexMex Shaman
