Great Track...looking Forward to the Heavily Electronic✨💎

Perfect mesh of electronic vibes and groovy fusion!

Dark and dank, yet somehow uplifting. A song about being a hot mess, and owning it.

This track was inspired by life in the mountains, the Alps, the snow, the high peaks, the simple life...

Something loose and fun to end the week.
A Howlin' Wolf style song.
Hey, in my mind, I'm a great dancer!!!

Lyrics:
We're rug cutting up a little on the dance floor
A little boot scuffin' on the rug (yes we do)
Sashay, into a little parlay with my girl
Bend, dip, twist, and twirl

I took my girl out for a dance on Friday night
And when the band kicked in, she said:
Something just doesn't seem right
I seem to dance on the 1s and the 3s (don't you see?)
High stepping, (yeah!) finger popping, that's what I do
You know when I work real hard
I really bust my moves

Yeah, I was busting my move
and she said to me
"Yeah, there's something wrong boo"
"cause you misaligned the groove'
Misaligned the groove
And that just goes to prove
Alcohol's the only thing that makes my dance moves improve

Rug cutting out on that dance floor
It's my St Louis Charleston flyover turnaround dance
Well, that's not your mother's mambo baby
Boot cutting, stripping down, turn your partner round
Bring em back around

Oh my girl, she calls me "Mr Slinky Bones"
Cause when I dance, I get real long and low
Real long and low
Mr Slinky Bones
She says: You dance like you think that you're  invisible
She calls  me
Mr Slinky Bones
I'm like a dog with 3 legs
Chasing his tail
I'm Mr Slinky Bones

Mr Slinky Bones

Only Just Wednesday tells the tale of a lad who is waiting for his pals Vladimir and Estragon. No one knows if Godot ever showed, but this is about Vlad and Estra. And its only just Wednesday, so now you wonder who is the lad. Check out the play written by Samuel Beckett, "Waiting for Godot".

The drum beat is bolero.  It comes from a song called Bolero, written by Maurice Ravel.  Happy 97th Bolero!

The chorus is from a song from my childhood 
We sang “Lo Bridge “ in music class
You know: I’ve gotta mule
                   Her name is Sal
                   Fifteen miles
                   On the Erie Canal…

Lo Bridge , Everybody Down - written by Thomas S. Allen in 1912.

The verses about time are mine
Thanks fer listening!

Erie Canal 

Cast adrift 
On this river of time
Who’s that in front
Who was left behind 

Life lifts you up
Spins you blind
Then casts you adrift 
On this river of time

One place
One time 
When yer life
Drifted into mine

Once here
Now gone
Only a splash of memory 
Lingers on and on

Lo bridge
Everybody down
Lo bridge 
Cause we’re coming 
To a town 

And you’ll always know yer neighbor 
You’ll always know yer pal
If you’ve ever navigated
on the Erie Canal

Erie Canal Redux

Here's another love related ballad that I wrote in 2006, around the time when I married my wonderful wife and my best friend Anita!! The lyrics are about how seldom my beautiful wife wears blue, which is my favorite color, but she looks great in all colors! It's another love ballad that wasn't recorded so well, I still had my old 8-track Tascam back then and I think it could have been mixed a whole lot better. I was still tinkering and getting used to the recorder! Charlie sang it perfectly and I double tracked his vocals, he also added some harmonica on the track as well. The video I put together last month and I threw in a lot of eye-candy and special effects at it to enhance it!

 I had forgotten about this song but when I was producing the video for "She Rescues Me" I noticed the song on the CD and did a video for it too! The melody is nice and the lyrics are sweet and it flows ok. Not my best song but it ain't my worst either! Very corny and old fashioned lyrics but hey, I'm an old fashioned lyric myslefI!😂 Take care and I hope everybody enjoys it! Thanks for dropping by and listening! (Oh and by the way, watch the video because all women look heavenly in blue, am I right?)🙏😎👍

“HEAVENLY IN BLUE”

YOU’RE SO HEAVENLY IN BLUE,    
LIKE A CLOUDLESS, BRIGHT, AND SUNNY DAY,   
OR THE CALM THAT TRANSCENDS A SUMMER SEA,  
YOUR SMILE ALONE CAN CHANGE MY POINT OF VIEW,   
YOU’RE HEAVENLY IN BLUE,
        
YOU’RE SO BEAUTIFUL IN RED,  
LIKE A CRIMSON ROSE KISSING AN AUTUMN DAY,
OR A SUNSET REFLECTING ON THE SEA,  
YOUR WHISPERS ALWAYS LINGER IN MY HEAD,   
YOU’RE BEAUTIFUL IN RED,
                                     
YOU’RE SO BREATHTAKING IN WHITE,   
LIKE A SILVER MOON OVER BISCAYNE BAY,     
OR THE GENTLE FOAM THAT PLAYS UPON THE SEA,  
YOUR STARRY EYES DANCING IN THE NIGHT, 
YOU’RE BREATHTAKING IN WHITE,

YOU’RE SO HEAVENLY IN BLUE,  
LIKE THE MORNING DEW THAT ALWAYS GREETS THE DAY, 
OR THE DEEP, DEEP, BLUE COLOR OF THE SEA,  
YOU RADIATE TRUE LOVE IN EVERY HUE,
BUT YOU’RE SO HEAVENLY IN BLUE.

Strolling backwards

Hello again Listeners,

I do realize that i have been posting a lot lately as i catch up on all the weekly jamming that my Saturna Island friend illio and i continue to enJoy... but what can i say? Only that we Love sharing our musical conversations with all of you.

This one has a lovely lilting Classical feel to it. I would even go so far as to say that "it's a thing of beauty"! 

We hope you'll continue to enJOY.

LYRICS
Talking to myself, yeah, that’s OK
Answer’s right every time
In the end, there isn't much left to say
Shut up shop, all is fine
So much grey, I pray for black & white
At the heart of bad I find the good
Stars shine brighter on the darkest night
Lingers longer than it should 
 
Empty, empty, empty, empty

So quick to quip and cover up your chip
Mistakes made, swallow pride
Sails are filling fast to steady up the ship
Skin is thick now, let it slide
Signs are posted, next direction clear
Treadmill hums along the same
Narrow viewpoint I don’t wanna hear
Pretend away the pain and shame

Will it fade away? Hopefully some day
 
Empty, empty, empty, empty
Again, again, again, again...

Empty
