PROTO-PUNK

Uacciu-uari

Floating on clouds, we wander
In echoes of harpsichord strings
A world of colors and wonder
Where silence in harmony rings
Dissolving shapes around us
Dissolving shapes around us

Catch the colors in the void
In patterns undefined
Let the harpsichord deploy
Your mind's journey unaligned

Chasing shadows of thought lost
In abstract rhythm, they hide
Unified, complex, embossed
In places where secrets reside
Entwined by dreams unfolding
Entwined by dreams unfolding

Catch the colors in the void
In patterns undefined
Let the harpsichord deploy
Your mind's journey unaligned

Like a painted aurora
Across senses, it glides
Unraveled in an enigma
Where harmony confides

Catch the colors in the void
In patterns undefined
Let the harpsichord deploy
Your mind's journey unaligned

In The Void

You know I miss the music of the Mamas & the Papas 
And the holes in my blue jeans.
‘Cause who else but a flower child could listen to Donovan and 
Tell you what it means?
The Byrds, they took you flying, took you 8 miles high, 
Then they’d lightly settle down.
And there’s no satisfying the Rolling Stones and their 19th Nervous Breakdown.

The Beatles tried to tell you all you needed was love if you’d  
Just peace a chance.
And all across the country they were feeling so good when they
Hit the streets to dance.
Listen to the message of the Lovin’ Spoonful, ‘cause you  know it is for free.
What a day for a daydream, and a daydream’s still good enough for me.

The music’s gonna take you where you’ve never been before.
Gonna take you to the edge and open up the door.

INSTRUMENTAL

Crosby, Still, Nash and Young were teaching all their children you should
Know your parents well.
And Dylan had us seeing all the multiples of reasons we should
Ring the freedom bell.
The Band was hypnotizing,Joni Mitchell fantasizing 
‘bout the Woodstock of our youth.
If the radio would play it, they felt the need to say it, 
‘cause we all should hear the truth.

The music’s gonna take you where you’ve never been before.
Gonna take you to the edge and open up the door.

My friends, they tell me, “Scott, you’re living in the past 
And there’s just no future there.
Nostalgia is fine, but it will never last, music won’t take you anywhere.
I look at them with a tear in my eye, and I tell them they are wrong.
I’ve been twice around the world and I never left - never left my song.
Whoa, listen to the music. All the time

Music

Here's a great song written and sung by my friend Max Patrick, with all other instruments recorded and/or programmed by me. We recorded this in 2009, and I've recently found the recording in a dark corner of my hard drive and given it a remix. The song is written in the first person, and is about a guy who's realised he's a werewolf. I sing the part of the doctor that the werewolf goes to see - yep, that's me in the low octave doing my best baritone voice. Lots of fun recording these songs back in the day, and a lovely thing to revisit 15 years later.

Child of the Moon

Shake that comb-over and prepare for the breakdown, baby!
