The concept for this SoundTrack originated with having recalled my initial fascination for the tune accompanying 
the "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" television show, 
"Funeral March of a Marionette" by Charles Gounod:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funeral_March_of_a_Marionette
AND...for those interested in the full score:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_egPlYIXKYQ

Gounod's score was written in 6/8 time,
so I followed that recipe throughout 
when piecing this tune together as well.
And as I am prone to do,
I have included in the opening bars
an homage to Gounod's haunting piece of mastery.

Marionette

Fairytales (Brian Peters)

People speaking their words on the wind
Satellites in the sky
Televisions and fax machines
Spiderwebs for the fly

Change your money and get a new card
Plastic number and name
Lamination will soon be too hard
Microchips in your brain

Every nation interconnects 
To an electrical hum
On the airwaves and video discs
They're playing bubblegum

   *Seems like the bride is wearing a veil
    In the palace of rooms
    Bring me some romance and fairytales
    Spin them on the crystal loom*

Poison perfumes with innocent names
Keep you from growing old
You can name them before they are born
Or change their genetic code

    *Seems like the bride is wearing a veil
    In the palace of rooms
    Bring me some romance and fairytales
    Weave them on the crystal loom*

Nothing changes under the sun
Just like Solomon said
Corporations and government sons
They're sleeping in one bed

Fairytales

Staccato Heaven

Another fun collaboration with @dough-factory !

We came up with the quirky beat and then went searching for some samples that would fit. I immediately thought of the Big Lebowski. But we'd also been talking about the Netflix show Midnight Gospel so we pulled in some clips from that as well.

I'm hoping this is all fair use (this track and this account are not monetized in any way!)

++++. PROFILE NOTES ++++

Once a wannabe, not yet a has been.

It had been over a decade since I put together a song,
and for that matter basically walked away from music altogether.
Losing hope that I would ever have the time to put into music again,
I finally gave away my 3rd music studio.
I ran across SoundCloud around 2013,
and thought I might take what few songs I had recorded, 
and lay them to rest there.
And there they languished.

HOWEVER, around 2017 I went back to SoundCloud
and began listening a little more and a little more,
and actively taking a part in visiting the sites
of so many wonderful musicians and beautiful songs.
Also, more and more often I would discover that these artists
were blossoming everywhere around the world,
and most definitely worthy of high praise and compliments.

Then suddenly, these old dead soundtracks right here
began to have a bit of life breathed back into them.
From the kind words that began to come trickling in,
I thought, maybe, someday I might give this music thing a try again.

The thing that finally pushed me into action
was a particular SoundCloud artist…Sander Heerings,
AKA https://soundcloud.com/wane-of-summer
 

Not only was he encouraging,
but he began faithfully responding to a few questions,
then a barrage of them.

The final result seemed to be that after a couple of months,
the Old Grinder now has a 4th studio and, finally, a new song.
I hope there may be many more to come.

Thank you Sander, and to the multitude that have dropped in
to listen to these old songs, 
and most of all, for perking up my spirits.
