All that we are
is not near or too far
all that we do
will not make us brand new

Take the ruby from my hand
and see how it glows
a thousand yesterdays will hold on tight
until we get home

We've travelled so far
not to know who we are
Curtains will fall
making clear to us all

Take the locket from my hand
and see how it shines
a thousand yesterdays won't make it last
until the end of time

I've waited so long
just to find
If you'd just

Take the ruby from my hand
and see how it glows
a thousand yesterdays will hold on tight
until we get home

"Through My Eyes" (Edit.: Mastered with iZotope Ozone 11 on December 4th, 2023)

This is a partly improvised "smooth jazz" or "lounge" track made as a humble tribute to my - for the most part American - collection of the wonderful musical adventure called smooth jazz that has given me so much over the years (maybe also the term "Westcoast music" could be relevant here). 

I shall call this track "Through My Eyes" because it kind of tries to capture and present something about the American smooth jazz tradition - as seen through my eyes. 

This track was loosely inspired first by Mr. Keith Jarrett's two wonderful songs, "The Good America" and "Country" which both express an enormously positive and hymn-like feeling, and second by Johannes Brahms' Symphony No. 3 in F Major, III. Poco allegretto (Op. 90), the beauty of which has been "haunting" me for many years (and maybe also to some extent by Mozart's Symphony No. 40, I. Molto allegro, and Schubert's Symphony No. 8 "Unfinished", I. Allegro moderato, etc.).

I have not found out much about the origins of the two Mr. Jarrett's songs but in a recent interview he talks about them and rightly describes - if I understood correctly - the song "The Good America" as almost like a prayer. I also got the impression that both of these two Mr. Jarrett's songs kind of represent a view of America. 

I have also gotten inspiration here from the music of one of my all-time favorite jazz bands Spyro Gyra and from all the wonderful music that Mr. Carlos Santana has provided to the world. Last but not least as a source of inspiration I shall mention the music of Mr. Burt Bacharach (especially his breath-taking song "Bells of St. Augustine"). There is again also a bunch of other classical and popular music and jazz lurking on the background as a source of inspiration. 

The instruments and plugins I have been privileged to use here are once again my old workhorse Korg SGProX digital stage piano (master keyboard), Yamaha Montage 8 synthesizer (CFX Concert) and the wonderful instruments from Scarbee (Rhodes, EP-88S), Native Instruments (Abbey Road 80s Drummer), the UVI SonicPass and Arturia V Collection. The drum grooves, fills etc. are from the 80s Drummer and edited by me.

Through My Eyes

The Key

Only you can make me fall asleep 
Calling you with words we only share 
I close my eyes and find that you are inside my mind

I walk with you forever on a beach 
You and I the blue sky and the kids 
I shut my mouth and breath the universal sea 

Long kiss hello and long kiss goodbye 
Hearts on fire and hearts that are tired 
I open my eyes and see that you are part of me

Only you 
Only you 
Only you
Only you

Only you can make me fall asleep 
Calling you with words we only share 
I open my eyes and see that you are part of me

Only you
Only you

The wacky adventures of Inspector Looso - Main Theme- New Fetchflix TV Show

Luc Clouseau is the proud son of the French inspector Jacques Clouseau and his ex-wife Simone Clouseau. Having the same talent as his father for investigation, he is to police investigation what P.D.Q. Bach is to music, a total disaster. Stay tuned on Fetchflix TV during the next months and enjoy this new series called “The wacky adventures of Inspector Looso”.

“This story is a work of fiction. Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events, is purely coincidental. Ho and for those who did not get it, Fetchflix TV is also fictitious.”

Music & Production: Syrel
Photography: Portrait generated with Meta AI

Musical note: You may recall the theme I used in the Rust & Bones Inspector Looso track. However, this time I tried to use the humor and derision of John Williams and added the sarcastic tone of the American composer and musical satirist Peter Schickele who created the fictional composer P.D.Q. Bach as well as the Gerhard Hoffnung humoristic music.

Mr.Peter Pencil, which is well known for his blue suit and lizard pin, vanished during a business trip somewhere in Italy. His mistress Penny Pen was desperate and called the police to investigate. Young Inspector Looso was assigned to this case by his boss hoping this investigation would sharpen his skills. Looso took charge of this case as if he was one of the Raiders of the lost Pencil. Will young Inspector Looso be able to find Mr.Pencil. Let’s hope Mr.Pencil was not violently erased from the surface of the earth?

Musical Notes: Should I be embarrassed that I borrowed to so many composers. Nope. But you may recognize Lorne, Hans, John, Sergey, Pyotr, Maurice and many others. I had so much fun making this pastiche ;o)

Lyrics: Dub double and twice (collab Llanpsych)  

Don’t know what she’s thinking
Don't know what she’s hiding
She don’t talk a lot
She looks really hot

She is so mysterious 
That’s what you like, i guess 
Don’t wanna fall in love,
To late you are a mess

She is very clever
She don’t tell her secrets 
Her recipe for succes
She wants more, don’t settle for any less

Anything she wants 
She wants it  double and twice

dub double and twice (collab Llanpsych)

UM TEMPO PARA TUDO
Ec 3:1-8,11

Pra tudo tem o seu tempo 
E sob o céu, todo plano tem seu tempo, tem seu tempo
Nascer e morrer, plantar e arrancar
O que plantou-se, pra tudo tem seu tempo certo,
Tempo certo;

Tudo belo, em Seu tempo, Ele fez!
Também em seus corações Ele pôs
A eternidade, sem que estes possam descobrir
O que Deus fez desde o princípio ‘té o fim.

Há tempo para matar e curar;
Pra destruir e pra construir;
Há tempo para chorar e sorrir
Para o luto e pra dançar;
Há tempo para lançar as pedras 
E há tempo para juntar as pedras;
E até um tempo pra abraçar e afastar-se.


Há tempo para buscar e perder;
Há tempo para rasgar e coser;
Há tempo pra se desfazer, guardar 
Falar e se calar;
Para amar e pra aborrecer;
Num tempo há guerra e em outro há paz.
Pra tudo, um tempo tem!

No estâ todavía en Español….
solo es una Traducción Provicional … 


1-Para todo hay un tiempo, y un tiempo para todo lo que se hace bajo el cielo.
Tiempo de nacer y tiempo de morir;
tiempo de plantar y tiempo de arrancar lo plantado;
(lo plantado).

Él hizo todo hermoso a su tiempo; también puso eternidad en sus corazones,
pero para que el hombre no descubra lo que Dios ha hecho desde el principio hasta el fin.

2-Tiempo de matar y tiempo de sanar;
tiempo de derribar y tiempo de edificar;
tiempo de llorar y tiempo de reír;
tiempo de lamentarse y tiempo de bailar;
tiempo de esparcir piedras y tiempo de juntar piedras;
tiempo de abrazar y tiempo de abstenerse de abrazar;

3-tiempo de buscar y tiempo de perder. Tiempo de guardar, y tiempo de desechar;
tiempo de romper, y tiempo de coser;
tiempo de callar, y tiempo de hablar;
tiempo de amar, y tiempo de odiar;
tiempo de guerra, y tiempo de paz.
(Un tiempo para todo)

Eclesiastés 3:1-8,11


🌹🎻🌺🎶🌱🌷🌸☘️🌹🎻🌺🎶 


For everything there is a season,
And a time for every purpose 
under heaven 
(under heaven)
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up 
what is planted; 
(what is planted)

	He has made everything 
	beautiful
	in its own time; also He 
	has put
	eternity in their heart,
	yet so that man does not
	find out what God
	has done from the 
	beginning
	to the end. 

A time to kill, and a time to heal; 
A time to tear down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; 
A time to mourn, and a time to dance; 
A time to cast away stones,
and a time to gather stones together; 
A time to embrace, and a time to refrain
from embracing; 

A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to be silent, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate; 
A time for war, and a time for peace.
(A time for everything)

LUCIEN
by Mickey James & Sharon Spivey

Lucien does his fishin' at the market
Though he wishes he was climbin' down that trail to catfish hole
He still has dreams of reelin' in the big one
But there's places where a wheel chair won't go
Lucien was inducted in the fifties
And he became a man one bloody day at Yung Dong Po
He said he'd always planned to be a lifer
But there's places where a wheel chair won't go

Chorus:
And he hangs out on the corner
And he rolls his own tobacco
He gives tips to all the tourists
Things that fishers need to know
And he'd like to work upstairs again
At Kelly's bait and tackle
But there's places where a wheel chair won't go

Lucien goes to services on Sunday
But he never bought the part about that fire down below
'Cause he believes that God is all forgiving
And there's places where a wheel chair won't go

Chorus: repeat

Lucien does his fishin' at the market
Though he wishes he was climbin' down that trail to catfish hole
Someday he'll go fishing way up yonder
In those places where a wheel chair won't go

Tag:
In those places where a wheel chair won't go
And there's places where a wheel chair won't go
