Yes and that anxiety never really goes even when they are giant teenagers.   Still the love makes it more than worthwhile.   Great playing, writing , singing and mixing.  Particularly like the intro and how it builds.

Wonderful song!! Love the crystalline guitars and lilting vocals!!

Lovely piece, delicately woven and well expressed

Something Beatles feeling I think !  Very nice :)

Transformation

"It's Hopeful Time Again" (v2, 2023)

A new version and arrangement of my earlier song, a.k.a. ”It’s Xmas Time Again”. I experimented with some different chords, inversions, voicings and chord progressions etc. and this is the result!

This was played by me using the Korg SGProX digital stage piano as a master keyboard. The main keyboard sound here is from the Yamaha Montage 8 (the great and ever so lovely Yamaha TX816 Electric piano performance which was converted from the original TX816 patch), layered with Gospel Musicians' Neo-Soul Keys Studio 2 (Dyno Rhodes) and Keyscape (Roland MKS-20). Other sounds that I have been privileged to use come mainly from the great UVI SonicPass instrument collection and the Arturia V Collection. The drums come from Native Instruments Abbey Road 80s Drummer. 

Recorded and mixed using Cubase Pro 13. Mixed with Cubase, with some very significant amount of help from iZotope Neutron 4. Mastered with iZotope Ozone 11.

Please take care of yourself and each other and please let us try to treat each other with due dignity and respect in this hopeful time of year.

Similar to R I.P.  A bit of fun with a Dylanesque type blues.

The Hidden People Of The Forest

Most small towns have something they're known for;  it might be a building or a statue, or some famous person who lived there.  When I was a Baptist pastor forty years ago in the little town of St Francis, Kansas, it was the "Walkin' Boys.  Not exactly "boys", they were three middle-aged brothers who were probably autistic and lived at the local nursing home called "The Village".  Their parents made provision for them to live there after they passed away so they would be well taken care of.  What made them so memorable was they would venture out every day from the Village regardless of the weather and walk the length of the town, checking their post office box, stopping in at the jewelry store to have their watches set, then proceed out to the cemetery to pay their respects to their parents, then return to the Village.  They would make this three mile trip three times a day if the weather wasn't too extreme, and you could almost set your watch by when they would pass by.  I felt they needed a song, and it is one that's still remembered by those who knew them. I understand the last of the Walkin' Boys passed away just a few years ago having lived to a ripe old age of course--they walked every day:)  The song also features my singing; something that got lost along the way some years ago. You'll also hear a little tape hiss; it was mastered from a forty-year-old cassette:)
Lyrics:
It's another sunshiny morning in our little town,
The air is crisp and clear, a little snow left on the ground,
Then I look up Benton Street and guess who's coming down,
It's those Walkin' Boys, those Walkin' Boys are coming around.

Well they call the Village home but don't spend much time there,
They spend their time a walkin' 
And what folks think they don't much care,
And the season doesn't matter they still take the dare,
To tread in summer's heat or old man winter's frigid air.
Chorus:
Walkin' Boys where you goin'
Walkin' Boys who do you know,
Walkin' Boys seldom have a word to say. 
All dressed up in dungarees,
Smoking their pipes as proud as you please,
Walkin' Boys where you going today?

They start out from the Village for their daily chore,
They check their mail box then walk to Stewart's jewelry store, 
And with their watches set they go on out the door
Headed for the graveyard then return to go once more.

Boys you may not know me but I think you're grand.
I used to think you strange, but now I better understand,
That you are the way you are because of God's own hand,
You're special to our town and unique in all the land.
Chorus 2:
Walkin' Boys where you goin'
Walkin' Boys who do you know,
Walkin' Boys seldom have a word to say.
Lookin' at the graves but they aren't sad,
Just paying respects to their mom and dad,
Walkin' Boys where you goin' today?

Walkin' Boys (from Scenes of St. Francis)

Happy Friday everyone. :)

Silly story behind this song name. My family can get a little snarky at times (surprise, surprise); and the title is definitely a running joke around the household... following the adoption of our first dog ever. 

Needless to say, we've determined these frightening, bite-sized culinary experiments gone wrong are your furry little friend's worst nightmare. So if you spot one wandering your neighborhood while out on walkies... do not engage. o.o

I hope you enjoy my first actual 2024 offering (completed on January 15th; and also destined for my upcoming album), a dangerous little delicacy called 'Chocolate Covered Garlic Grapes'. :D

Paradox?

Chocolate Covered Garlic Grapes

First time parents can experience mixed emotions. On one hand there is the elation of bringing new life into the world,but this can often be accompanied by anxiety and worry about the future. This song explores a little of parental hopes and fears. Excitement and dread wear each other's clothes.

Just what lies ahead
No one really knows
Excitement and dread
Wear each other's clothes

Living is a lottery
An ever changing dance
Fate will make a mockery
Of anything but chance

May all the hope and love
Invested in you
Give you the heart
To see this battle through.

👹SCARY CUDDLING🥰 (IN A WORLD OF SH💩T) [Back💐To True🧡Love]

The Title of the song can be understood in 2 ways:
1. a reflection of the current Corona crisis we are in
2. the feeling I still have since I play this 8 string beast, that I bought myself in January 2020. Always used to be at home on 6 strings, this one is really a challenge, which I am getting only slowly under control.
 Never in my life I had to search on a guitar for the deep e-string :-)

Surfing On A Disastrous Wave

I am happy to present you a further collaboration with Ken Minty (@kcm069).
Ken has written the lyrics and vocals to this track. 
Ken has also played the intro on the acoustic and the stunning slide solos on his lap steel guitar for the guitar battle at the end of the song. For me I perceived it as if Ken had sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads, but ...hm... I am still not sure if he really did ...

dancing to the rhythm of this rainbow prison
	dreaming on a winter's day
	welcome to the hotel no one can name
	such a lovely place to stay
	out on bail a step away from jail
	longing for some other world
	if I could see all the people on the beach
	I'd wish they were all dreaming girls

	from forests cool to deserts hot
	from the mountains in the east to the sea
	out of my prison, is such a lovely place
	of girls, hotels and dreams
	
	California

	the prison around me is not made of concrete
	timber, rocks or steel
	the hotel can't be found in a guide book
	it's location no map can reveal
	the panther's child still stalks the streets
	looking for a better scene
	and the beach is a rainbow fantasy

For vintage Marshall sound lovers only: I have used here the Kerry King Marshall signature plugin recently sold by Softube, which is really a very similar sound I had, when I was still playing my JCM 800 .

Rock, Rock, Rock and no Alternative …
I am playing guitar and bass, I love prog rock, technical death metal and all flavors of hard rock.
I use SoundCloud for collaborations with other Artists, if time allows.
Mix and Mastering was done in the „N.o.b.S. Moonshine Studios“ based in my living room. 
Nearly everything had been recorded during the night, sometimes at daylight on weekends.

Second album of 10 songs 'Looking Up',available from bandcamp,Spotify and the rest.

This is my first solo venture. It's an album of ten songs and it can be downloaded  from bandcamp free,or for whatever you deem it worth. I'd be happy if you just take a copy and listen to my musical ramblings. 
Thanks to all who take the time.  :)

Follow on Spotify  https://open.spotify.com/album/4BOvUv16dOl6cgcWANX1Dz
A while back I viewed s/c as merely a hosting platform for posting on forums,but then I realised there was access to so many wonderful compositions by other folk,it then became my prime source of listening to music.
This little corner of the internet is actually a thriving musical community where nobodies such as myself can share songs with the great and the good.
All that just has to be positive and welcome.
Thanks to all who listen and comment,be assured I will return the favour,as I love finding new artists. Please don't follow me if you are going to unfollow,I only wish to listen and share music,I am not a follower collector.


Songs are a mix of solo work with all instruments played by myself,plus my own world weary vocals! I tend to favour my home made Telecasters and a Strat,though the odd acoustic makes an appearance. I use Logic Pro X and am a recent convert to DAW.

I play and write for the joy of expression and always with the hope my songs may be a positive force to anyone who takes time to listen. I'm an old boy now,so I harbour no dreams of success in the conventional sense,having the odd comment is just fine for me. Thanks to all who bother.

 Also earlier songs from a project in 2015, with Fiona and Martin Magill,Vocals and keys. Martin is a very talented working keyboard player,but sadly Fiona no longer sings. Our loss.
Lastly there are tracks from late 80s/early 90s from SOS,a band I was in back then.
