Cast of Characters:
~Mark F-- @mark_f_2019 -- bass guitar, composition

Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – first screaming electric guitar

TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– second psychedelic electric guitar, production, and mix

J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell –electric piano 

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums and percussion

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-organ



This song is the first The Eclectic Collective has done with Mark, and we all had a great time making it with him. This song started with Mark, who is a bass player's bass player, giving his raw bass track to Ken, who brought it to the group. Ken laid down his exciting drums to match Mark's bass line before anything else happened, though. Once we had a rhythm section, JJ laid down his dancing electric piano. Once that was in place, Josh laid down the organ. Then it was time for the guitars, played electrifyingly by both Tez and Stephen. Tez plays throughout most of the song, and Stephen added his part towards the end. Stephen also mixed this for us expertly, as always. If you have a beverage in your hands, you might want to set it down. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

All Music vocals lyrics and production done by this guy....It's a moment in time when my heart was cracked. I love this track. Been sitting on the acoustic for years...decided to give it some Razz and give it light...Enjoy...

I just don't know how to cope
Its so ridiculous how we broke
And you would hide away
With all your feelings left inside
And now you're gone away
And it was ridiculous the way you left
Not a word, not a word to say
No apologies,
You just disappeared
While i was at work
You are so cowardly
The way you hide
And you can run away
Ill be okay my dear
I don't need you
Oh Why
Couldn't you speak a word
All you had to do was tell me so
And I would know
But you are such a crazy wreck
You can't get your shit together
And it's my fault

Ridiculous

My monumental track. Thank you for the listening.

"Until The End Of Time"

Original Song and lyrics by Linda Straub

I want to sing you a love song,
but your face is masked  in pain,
so I'll just sit here by your side,
and let you sleep and rest again. 

I look at you and watch you breathing,
then reach out and hold your hand.
I picture you as you used to be,
strong, full of life, my loving man. 

It's hard to feel this helpless,
when I want to sweep your pain away.
All I can do is be by your side
as you slip further away each day.

All the wonderful times we've shared
are memories flooding my mind,
each one fills my soul with gladness,
for the joy we've had throughout our lives.


Sleep my darling, for when you wake,
I'll be here, steadfast by your side,
for I am your woman,
until the end of time,

for I am your woman,
until the end of time.





Until The End Of Time (Original)-

Here's the first single from the Penelope's Thrill second album, "Message on the Moon," which will be released on April 11. 
"Things Are Falling Down" is an upbeat song paradoxically about global warming and climate change. The infectious reggae-infused bass line and scratchy guitars make the listener perk up and listen...and eventually realize what the song is about. So it's a bit of sugar to get people to come to the table and think about the mounting crisis we're all facing...and maybe dance off some of their stress too. 
Cover painting is "Amor Fati" by Kelli Hoppmann, my favorite artist who also happens to be from Madison. Big thanks to Kelli for permission to use her paintings on the singles and the album. 
In fact, Kelli's paintings played a big role in the gestation of the new album. A few years ago, my wife and I bought one of Kelli's paintings that featured a moonlit woodland scene with phantasmagoric characters (like the "Amor Fati" painting above). That painting, which is titled "August Night," greets me each morning as I come downstairs. Eventually, it served as the inspiration for several songs on the album, including the title track, "Message on the Moon," and “August Night,” which is a song about the painting. A main theme of Kelli’s paintings is metamorphosis, which is also the main theme that runs through the songs on Message on the Moon. All six of the singles from the album also feature cover paintings by Hoppmann. (All those singles are now up on Bandcamp, Spotify, etc, and will be uploaded here as well.)
On this track, I play a vintage modified Stratocaster, a classic 60s Telecaster, and a Gretsch hollowbody--a combination I particularly like.

LYRICS:
“Things Are Falling Down"
Words & Music by Timothy Walsh	
			
Half a minute and you won’t be here.
Half a minute and you’ll be gone.
Make your fictions so you don’t have to know our days are numbered.

Take your pictures and post them online.
Make your mixtures of rum and coke.
Maybe you just think it’s all a joke, but the seas are rising.

Make a million so you won’t know.
Play some music on your stereo.
Shop online to preserve your status quo while the world is crumbling.

CHORUS:
I don’t say the things I know.
I don’t say I won’t go—looks like things are falling down.
When I would take you down,
when I would bring you round—seems like things are falling down.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall.
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
Now we’re fragile as eggs if you recall the way that story ends.

Jake was nimble, Jake was quick
when he jumped that candlestick,
but Jack and Jill are feeling sick about the way we’re going.

Cinderella had it right, but Rapunzel gave delight
when she lowered her hair from the tower top (where is our ladder?)

CHORUS

I remember going to the islands, lounging there on the sandy bay,
but now those islands have washed away beneath the waves and…

Now we scuttle our dreams and future.
Now we huddle on the rec room couch
while our conscience says, “you’re such a slouch,”
and the trees are whispering.

PRECHORUS and CHORUS

Things Are Falling Down

Download

It would be like a dance 
Maintain this distance 
Where everything is created 
In cryptic 
In spells 
Weaving translucent mesh 
Soft to the ligaments 
So resist 
Praying for the Resilience of Refusal 
And so Certify the shelter 
Certify the cloud

Certify The Cloud

IN MEMORY 

Blessed be Thou for all the joy
My soul has felt to-day!
O let its memory stay with me
And never pass away!


I was alone, for those I loved
Were far away from me;
The sun shone on the withered grass,
The wind blew fresh and free.


Was it the smile of early spring
That made my bosom glow?
'Twas sweet, but neither sun nor wind
Could raise my spirit so.


Was it some feeling of delight,
All vague and undefined?
No, 'twas a rapture deep and strong,
Expanding in my mind!


Was it a sanguine view of life
And all its transient bliss—
A hope of bright prosperity?
O no, it was not this!

Lyrics:

When she was a little girl her daddy was the one
That she adored and looked up to
He taught her so much, they played in the sun
He was the king in her life..

She grew older
Her daddy's heart grew colder
He was no longer her king..
And all she could see was a thorn
In her faded memory

When she was fourteen her mother told her
Your daddy is not your real dad..
It broke her heart, she lost her king
She became angry and sad

She grew older
Her daddy's heart grew colder
He was no longer her king..
And all she could see was a thorn
In her faded memory

While time passed, and she moved on
Her faded memory returns..
It didn't feel painful
No longer a thorn
But her daddy's heart was gone..

While she grew older
Her daddy's heart grew colder
And he was no longer her king..
But now she can see her king
In her faded memory...

Her Faded Memory  W/PJ Project

The man in the cover picture is the protagonist of a famous comic series in Italy that I adored as a child. His name is Tex Willer: a ranger, but also the chief of the Navajos tribe.
Unfortunately (or luckily) I unintentionally deleted the Audacity project file of this track. So improving it is impossible. I could make it worse, so I leave it as it was already a few years ago.

lyrics:
Since we started, we had a long way from home
now never departed, we have to stand tall
Never let it down, no threat from the wind
rain or thunder nor from any evil seed

Always i wonder, what's next on the line
this daily life plunders whatever vital that shines 

i keep on dreamin' aiming high
but this weird feeling shutters my mind

but if i'm keeping all worries behind
i should remain believin', relentless will for life to find

fightin' for no reason, ain't gonna give me peace of mind
feeding my ego, had lost so much precious time

Now it's the right time, to think what's next
healing this heart and let the mind to rest
