R.L. BURNSIDE (KARAOKE, REMIX)

Tuning from Bass DGDGBD

I captian banks & casinos
I deal in war stocks and bonds
Investments in Life and Death
Shares in the great beyond

Hold this golden thread
I will lower you down in the hole
When I call your name
You can hand me your soul

Im going with you babe
Im going with you babe
Im going with you babe
To where I just dont know

I trade in greed and murder
What are you putting down
I’ll take your earthly posessions
Then I will raise your town

I’m embedded in blood
With the KKK
I head the beuro of truth
For the NRA

Im as high, high , high
As you are low, low, low

I pulled the trigger @ Little Big Horn
That sat Sitting Bull down
I was the chair of Colonial power 
Until we disappeared underground

I dabble in sugar,…. plastic and coal
Sticks and stones,…. sex and gold
I can get you high and crush you low
Your gona love, love me true, cause Im all you know

Im going with you babe
Im going with you babe
Im going with you babe
To where I just don't know

I’m bringing back slavery
To service coperate need
I’ll downsize you to the bone
Till you got nothing left to bleed    

 Trumpet!

Step Into My Spaceship

I am still feel very proud of the string-quartet arrangement of „Throw back the little ones“, which I published around one year ago. I got very positive feedbacks and even in the circles of Steely Dan-aficionados the arrangement and the exceptional vocals of Jimmy Rivas were received with friendliness (and believe me Steely Dan fans are very critical). So I felt very motivated to continue.
So after one year I can present another string-quartet arrangement of a Steely Dan-song. I have chosen „Fire in the hole“. The song is one of my favourites of their first album „Can’t buy a thrill“ from 1972. It’s driven by the piano. As usual there are many chords, melodically rich interludes, everything is crafted to total perfection.

I arranged the song in the notation-software „Sibelius“. Then I set up the Cello with VSL „Solo strings“, at last I recorded the two violins and the viola live.
I have to thank Jimmy Rivas again for joining this project and his great vocals.

James Rivas: Vocals (@j-rivas)
Dirk Radloff: Violin, Viola, Cello-programming, production.

Instruments used: Violin „Anton Piegendorfer“ built 1902, unfortunately I could not borrow the viola of my sister, so I had to borrow a viola from AaKe violinmakers Bad Homburg (http://www.rhein-main-geigenbau.de/aake/contente.htm); VSL Violoncello from „Solo strings"

Recording notes: I have recorded the three upper string-instruments with three different microphones:
First Violin: Beyerdynamic M88TG
Second violin: Electro Voice N/D967
Viola: AKG C-1000S

The meaning of Steely Dan’s lyrics are mostly dark and ambiguous and „Fire in the hole“ is a perfect example. I read many interpretations and one, that convinces me is to imagine here a man, who fought in the Vietnam war. He has lost some years of life, has to get a low-class job („A woman’s voice reminds me to serve and not to speak“) as a waiter, but he still has to fight against the flashbacks of the horrific experiences („With a cough I shake it off“). 

Fire In The Hole

I decline
To walk the line
They tell me that I'm lazy
Worldly wise
I realize
That everybody's crazy
A woman's voice reminds me
To serve and not to speak
Am I myself or just another freak

Don't you know
There's fire in the hole
And nothing left to burn
I'd like to run out now
There's nowhere left to turn

With a cough
I shake it off
And work around my yellow stripe
Should I hide
And eat my pride
Or wait until it's good and ripe
My life is boiling over
It's happened once before
I wish someone would open up the door

Don't you know
There's fire in the hole
And nothing left to burn
I'd like to run out now
There's nowhere left to turn
