Real power in this delivery and fantastic vocals and guitar….definitely has a Sergeant Pepper vibe

Great track…..🌍☮︎👍🐞🍀2024

Cool & funky track with powerful vocals & production.  Yes, we surely need a hero but certainly not Trump.   Unfortunately I don't see one coming at the moment.

Good rock sound! I like the riff, it carries the song well. 🎸🔝

very enjoyable , especially the drumming chaps , excellent

Super chanson avec une très belle energie  !!

was that a real vocal take? great note hold. heroes are sadly all too rare

Gaz Brownie:  Vocals, Lyrics, Melody
Ben Juul:  Drums, Mix & Master
Dirk Taubenheim:  Guitars, Bass

I had this instrumental song in that typical Britpop - Rickenbacker sound and thought the best singer I could get was Gaz. Finally I dared to ask him and he accepted! The result is just amazing - thanks so much, Gaz. The story you wrote, the melody you created and the vocs you recorded are just great!

Nothing left to defend

The end of the road is not the finishing post, but when you have nothing left but the city streets, you may well find you!
Got to thank Mikey B & Muffy for there contribution to the making of this track

Nothing Left, but this City Street.

all saint's day

Keith is an old school rocker who loves to belt out throaty vocals and crunch away on guitars.
I just come alongside and wrap a vision of additional parts and produce it all to show off the details in the creative process as best as a modest home-based  musician with a rudimentary DAW can. 
Once in a while, lyrics come along that glue everything together.

So, for 2024, here is our wish: we need a hero! Who do you envision in such a role?  Our parents, our family, our teachers, medical practitioners, scientists, researchers, friends, musicians, politicians who unite (not divide), a religious figure, a community member or volunteer, or perhaps someone who has overcome significant challenges? What makes a leader for the challenges of 2024? Maybe it's you?

                               We Need a Hero
    Do you weary of everything?
    Does it turn like machinery?
    Do you drown in a puddle?
    As deep as eternity
    Do you surrender or fight?
    Even know what is right?
    Do you just rattle your tin?
    With all your walls closing in
    WE NEED A HERO…WE NEED A HERO TO LEAD US
    NEED A HERO…WE NEED A HERO RIGHT NOW
    WE NEED A HERO…WE NEED A HERO TO LEAD US
    NEED A HERO…WE NEED A HERO RIGHT NOW…
    (Lead-guitar-break)
    Does the smell seem to lurk?
    But your pain never hurts?
    Machinations of malaise
    With all your walls closing in
    (We need a hero, hero)
    (CHORUS)

This one started off nearly a year ago, when the Eclectic Collective was just coagulating, and is the first one to feature Tez, Ken, JJ, and me on a song. JJ came up with it, drawing from his deep well of creativity, on the electric piano and bass, and shared it with the rest of the us. Starting with Ken, who added a phenomenal drum track to work with. I then added my guitar in a way that tried to emulate Miles Davis, albeit just an impression. Then we asked Tez to mix it for us, which he did ably as ever, and we released it early last spring. 
  However, Tez, being the always tinkering producer that he is, decided to dust it off and give it a new bass line to match the ferocity of Ken's drums. He then remixed it and added some production effects, making the song it was meant to be. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

GONNA LIVE IN HELL (Lyrics)
V1
My mama told me, don't be too bad.
My mama told me son, don't play with fire!
Did I listen, I was bad sometimes.
And sometimes I was not!
V2
My mama told me, she said son be well.
Don't you give anyone, your living hell.
My mama told me, be a little a a angel!
(Or I gonna live in hell.)

Chorus
Do you believe me, please believe me. I was good!
I -  yeah , I was I a saint, I was everything she said.
Was I everything - that my - mama said?
Sometimes , I was not!
V3
I played with fire, I got my fingers burned.
Yeah - Maybe just a - little bit singed.
And I know –
Yes I know, I committed some sins.
V4
We turned the world, upside down.
Because my mama said son, be good!
Love and respect.  Love and respect boy,
give it all you got.

Chorus
Will you forgive me, will you forgive me? Can I be good?
Can you forgive - this sinner. Can you let me move on?
We turned the world upside down.
The world - The world upside down.
I´m not sure – is this good?

Break
Mama said boy, don't be too bad.
And a little love and respect!
Outro
Yes mama, oh yes mama! Love and respect.
Yes mama, oh yes mama! Love and respect.
Love and respect? What's that?
Love and respect? What's that?
Yes mama, oh yes mama!

My Candy Man

The Living And The Dead (Mark Hendrick)

[Verse]
Validation station calling my name
Empty lines whisper
They’re all the same
Recognition hiding
Playing coy
A shadow’s game
A broken toy

[Prechorus]
But the course keeps winding tight
A loop
A spiral
Out of sight

[Chorus]
Validation oh it’s a tricky game
Chasing echoes
Chasing fame
Is it real or is it mine
Recognition the course that's fine

[Verse 2]
Mirrors laughing
Bending the truth
Staring back with the eyes of youth
The train rolls on
No ticket to show
Do I stay or let it go

[Bridge]
A fine line
A blurred design
Chasing dreams that intertwine
Validation whispers
It’s all a test
Can you face it
Can you rest

[Chorus]
Validation oh it’s a tricky game
Chasing echoes
Chasing fame
Is it real or is it mine
Recognition the course that's fine

Validation Station

Canada Stands With Ukraine
Elbows Up, Canada!
Never 51.

Connecting, creating and sharing with others has been quite a transformative experience and one that I trust will continue for years to come. I enjoy listening to musicians on SC, and try to leave encouraging and descriptive comments.
Who said retirement can't be fun!
