Juneteenth Jam Boure'e

plata o plomo (extended version)

Ay up chuck.  Never missing an opportunity to confuse transatlantic friends once again with the title referring to a line in UK long running soap opera - some kind of northern humour/grit to it.

Down, down
Stumble around
through old memories

Snow falls
Dusting the dawn
from the windowpane dream

So long
troubles be torn
by a thread on a seam

Sail on
Ports in a storm
Singing songs to the sea

Can anything save us now?

How 
now 
crumble in crowds
Well there's nothing to see

Hold on
nothing is wrong
So try just to breathe

So shuffle along 
with the world asleep 
with the world asleep 
(it's not a smile, it's a lid on a scream)

Down, down
Stumble around
through old memories

Snow falls
Dusting the dawn
from a windowpane dream

Lid on a Scream

Verso altri mondi lontani (Intergalactic journey)

WorldWide Cypher Jam Entry Feat. Termite

The Birds Keep Singing.
What did you do this summer? 
I got smashed on Beaujolais. 
You could have seen me suffer.. but you were far away. 
I lie here contemplating in our once perfect home.
Now all the walls need painting & the gardens overgrown.

I´ve got my headphones on in bed but that birds still singing in my head. 

I know I´ve had my chances. I`m overwhelmed with guilt.
While searching for Atlantis I`m drowning in the silt
And now my phones stopped ringing its peaceful finally 
But those bloody birds keep singing & they´re singing just for me.

And when their loved ones fly away, they still keep singing..that bird keeps singing every day.

How can I live today when there`s no tomorrow?
She left me for another man, part of natures masterplan.
How can they sing today when there`s no tomorrow?
Take your songs & disappear. Wake me up when winters here.

You start a conversation with some young handsome man
Its been no consolation to be your back up plan.
The time will pass & surely we`ll meet (though God knows when).
You`re on a different journey and I`m on the beer again.

I`m trying to forget what she did last summer
(She left me for another man, part of natures masterplan)
Why do they have to sing like they did last summer?
Take your songs & disappear
Wake me up when winters here

Take your songs & disappear. Wake me up when winters here.
Part of natures master plan..Karmas screwed me up again.
Ladybird & bumblebee. Piss off home don`t bother me.
While witnessing my final fall the birds keep singing through it all.
Spread you wings & disappear. Wake me up when winters here.

This groovy Blues progression came from my friend Hendrik, @cosmic-ratzzz 
 He's an amazing multi-instrumentalist/ producer/ composer/ collaborator and all around Funk Meister. I'm super stoked to join him in these "Sunshine Blues"

Hendrik Klein/ Bass & Drums/ Progression

pro bros./even been known to cast like a fish/in mostly vacant parking lots/just fo practice/hey folks/a diff. stroke.

FORE!!!! Good Measures

Hendrik @cosmic-ratzzz sent me this progression to see what I could do with it.. I added rhythm guitar & vocals to his bass, drums & a killer slide guitar solo. "Sister Sadie" is the title of the instrumental version with Florian Luthi & Joerxworx and was the inspiration for my lyrics. Hope you enjoy our "Sister Sadie Blues".

Hendrik @cosmic-ratzzz asked for my rhythm trax from Cecilia's "Fresh Pure Air" @specialvocals  a tune he had collaborated on with me. I though he would do an instrumental version, and he did add some great instrumentation, but he had an ace up his sleeve in the form of Mz Emily Coy @freevocals 
We hope you enjoy this mash-up remix "The Madness"

HELLO MY FRIENDS!  
I recommend navigating this large, chaotic cloud by tracks or playlists.
I am a Drummer/Singer/Songwriter/Guitarist/Producer. I've played in various types of bands over the years, Rock, Folk, Irish, Reggae, Jazz, Funk, Country, and Avant Garde. I'm best known for playing drums through multiple re-incarnations of Shiva's Headband, the eclectic, legendary psychedelic era band from Austin. One of my songs appears on "In the Primo of Life", and I co-wrote "Roots Rock Station" with Spencer Perskin, which first appeared on "Remember The Armadillo" and was re-released on "The Temple of Rock N Roll". I also co-produced the CD, "So You Don't Go Barefoot", by Sue Perskin of Shiva's. This cloud focuses on my songwriting. Credit is given to any and all musicians involved. Otherwise everything you hear I've done myself.
