lyrics:
Wings on a Wagon
----------------
We've spoken twice
and roll the dice
i said i'm leaving this town for a day or two
I packed my bags
i'm on a railway track
i'm gonna see you again my love really soon
We're sailing into the unknown, before the sun comes up
Why we've become so distant? i see wings on a wagon
Why there's no line to reach you, we are flying on flamed wings of a dragon
there's only youth around me, only young angels beside me
i said don't worry about me, i see wings on a wagon
the end is near, i felt no fear
i had no time to think about
i saw the flames, i heard some names
and then connection lost for eternity
and i will call and i won't fall, get some rest and sleep well    
and i'll be there and i'll take care, don't worry mom i won't be late...

One More Time

Mostly just me playing about, but there's a bit of Charlie Villiers' guitar in there too, notably giving the outro a little touch of class.

~Lyrics~
We were sitting in your back garden 
Clouds were drifting across the sky 
You turned to me and smiled
I think you had a tear in your eye
And then taking my hand you whispered,
“When I get this high,
I sometimes get the feeling I might be just about to die!”

Then with a shrug of your shoulders 
You told us about the butterflies
That there’s no way of them knowing
That their wings look like eyes
And if you consider the caterpillar
It’ll come as no surprise
Just how very little we all know about our lives

[Chorus]
Baby you kill me, all night long
Baby you’re killing it all night…

Later on that evening
the sun was streaming through the trees
You have to just surrender to life
At moments like these
We were kicking through the fallen leaves
In the pale winter sun
And though I tried to hide it, I always knew this day would come

I recall the very moment 
You didn’t even hesitate
It was written in the heavens
And written all over your face
But the storm is in the distance
The sky is a luminous pink
You can lead me like a horse to water…

[Chorus]
🎸 🤩

Baby You Kill Me

Cast of characters:
Tea R. Sea @tea_are_sea -- Terry – Synthesizers, beats, composition, production, and mix
The Mysterious Decibel -- @themysteriousdecibel – MD – First vocals and lyrics 
Llanpsych–@llanpsych –Tez–Electric guitar
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– Electric guitar, mix, and production 
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, lyrics, and vocals at the end
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–five-string fretless bass

This song began with Terry sharing an intriguing Eastern sounding synth and minimal beat with Ken, who added a really solid beat to bring out the strong rhythm of the song. Once they had a solid foundation and skeleton, they shared it with the rest of the Eclectic Collective. I added my five string fretless bass in a dubby line that was inspired by Tez's hot skank part. Then JJ poured his magic into it, too. Stephen came up with the shocking dynamic lift towards the end, and Tez piled on to light it up. 
  Then MD got a hold of it and wrote and sang some of his trademark, fun lyrics and vocals in the first part of the song. Ken, not to be left out of the melodic experience, added the vocals at the end. 
  After we all had everything in the can, the Texas Tea combo of Stephen and Terry produced and mixed the whole thing down. This wasn't their first rodeo mixing a project together, and it really shows in the end quality. They also have several duo projects up on both of their pages that are worth checking out.  
  We think the end result is reminiscent of Massive Attack and Thievery Corporation, two big influences on a few of us. We all hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Lyrics by MD:
Time again and on, and on, and on, we fall in slumber
Dreams never wait
Ashes to ashes we all fall down 
Ooooo Circles break
Ashes to ashes we all fall down
When we wake
When we wake
Is this a new Simulation?
When I wake
When I wake

Lyrics by Ken:
Feed the flame or the fire flames out

Bluff City Blues # 20, Gene Jumper,  ( Original) Music By: Keitonie

Cleaning the basement today I realized it's been about 10 years since I last played any of my drums, so I dusted them off and recorded a little something. I also found my old flute which hasn't been played in even longer, and added that to the mix. The didgeridoo is played by me too, though I can't really play it properly. This is a pretty rough take slapped together in a couple hours, but had fun messing around. :)
Best experienced loud(ish), with headphones

instruments played:
  -Wind:  flute, didgeridoo 
  -Drums: djembe, congas (2), talking drum
  -Percussion: maracas, cowbells, calabash, small log drum

Memories

(Written by Terry Reeves)
Terry Reeves:  Lead Vocal

Hans-Michael Albers:  All other instruments, Arrangement & Production

Working with Hans is always an inspiring process.  The music relationship both Gal and myself have formulated with him over the last few years has never grown stale, because he is so endlessly innovative when interpreting the songs we regularly wing over to his studio in Hamburg.  By contrast, what we say to each other on these occasions is always the same.  “It’ll be nothing like we’re expecting” is our mantra and, sure enough, what comes back never is.  His arrangements are always - and I do mean always - so much better than anything we could possibly have imagined.

It was during what has become a regular exchange of emails that Hans said something which became the inspiration for this song.  He runs his own company, in what could be described as both a creative but stressful industry - advertising.  Not so long ago, his frustrations with certain clients was getting under his skin, feeling that far too often he was wasting his time and energy on those who supplanted boldness and enthusiasm for unnecessary worry and reservation. “It takes loop after loop after loop of needless discussion which means nothing really happens…”, was how he put it.  Having had to tolerate many similar frustrations during my working life - I’d  retired some years before due to ill health - I knew precisely how he must be feeling.

His cri de cœur of “Loop after loop after loop” stuck in my mind and the next time I picked up my guitar, strumming random chords in the way I often do, these were the words I sang.  So this song for my wonderful friend Hans is from the heart and one I hope will bring a quantum of solace for all he is forced to tolerate in his working life.

Finally, must again thank those who still listen, like, comment and repost our music.  We are filled to the brim with gratitude for all your kindness.  (Terry Reeves)

Trapped in a box of daily communication 
No artistic ideas or a mental lubrication
Many words, no meaning, lots being said
Endless discussions to confusion instead

Loop after Loop after Loop……….

Brand to establish and how to perform
Boldness of thinking keep all ideas warm
A number of reasons changing direction
Knowing what to do, Christ resurrection? 

Loop after Loop after Loop………..

Nothing is new it’s all been done before
Takes someone special, see what is more
Easy to reject asking for a new approach 
Ignoring integrity and trust never to poach 

Loop after Loop after Loop…….

Time to find strength, weakest of moments
Gripping tightly to your thinking component 
A Kelly surprises and helps with inspection 
Encouraging power combining self-deception 

Loop after Loop after Loop……..

1年半くらい前からピアノを練習しています。
「これなら弾ける!!ジャズ・ピアノ」という本に載っていた、北島直樹さんが編曲した「Moanin'」にチャレンジしました。これは昨年録音したものです。
ちょっとミスっています(^^;)
ここを発表の場にして、もっと上手くなっていきたいと思いますのでどうか応援してください(笑)

I've been practicing piano for about a year and a half.
I tried ``Moanin''' arranged by Naoki Kitajima, which was featured in the book ``You Can Play This! Jazz Piano''. This was recorded last year.
I made a little mistake (^^;) 
I would like to use this as a place to make presentations and become even better, so please support me (lol)
