Cool sound great track good job.😎👌🎶👍

Your mixing skills and guitar chops are impressive.  Adding to my -laylist for inspiration.  Like minded psychedelic sound maker! Cheers to you!

time stops here forever bro, spectacular work

Love the atmosphere of good old days of rock!

The biting lead reminds me of the tone Fogarty used to get on early CCR. A big,booming retro rock! Love it man.

Super heavy rock riffs. Love the superb arrangement of instruments. Great work!

this comes like Neil Young on a tirade, full of guitar grit and emotion   super nice organ track too!!

Lyrics :
J'veux oublier
Où aller sans ailes s'envoler sans voler tout est plié
J'veux m'évader
Je voudrais tant laisser le temps oh tant qu'il est encore temps
Eh oh l'ovni
Viens me chercher emmène moi
Changer de vie  décolle moi de là
Hey oh love me
Dans l'univers où tu voudras
Enlacé dans une supernova
J'veux m'en aller
Respirer l'espace d'un instant que suis bien vivant
J'veux voyager
Me faire la malle pour un bienvenu quelque part et tout nu
Eh oh l'ovni
Viens me chercher emmène moi
Changer de vie  décolle moi de là
Hey oh love me
Dans l'univers où tu voudras
Enlacé dans une supernova
J'veux me sauver
Mettre les voiles à la bise où m'enfuir partout n'importe où
J'veux m'éloigner
Me trisser de cette tristesse me brûler la politesse
Eh oh l'ovni
Viens me chercher emmène moi
Changer de vie  décolle moi de là
Hey oh love me
Dans l'univers où tu voudras
Enlacé dans une supernova

I want to forget
Where to go without wings to fly without flying everything is folded
I want to escape
I'd so much like to leave time oh while there's still time
Hey oh UFO
Come and get me take me away
Change my life, take me away
Hey oh love me
In the universe where you want
Embraced in a supernova
I want to go away
To breathe for a moment that I'm alive and well
I want to travel
For a welcome somewhere and naked
Hey oh UFO
Come and get me, take me away
Change my life, take me away
Hey oh love me
In the universe where you want
Embraced in a supernova
I want to run away
Set sail in the breeze or run away anywhere, anywhere
I want to get away
I'm so sad I'll burn my politeness
Hey oh UFO
Come and get me, take me away
Change my life, take me away
Hey oh love me
In the universe where you want
Embraced in a supernova

Paul put this revved up open collab out there under the title "Rock a Car"...well I took it for a reckless joyride.  I was using it to get those ripping, rockin' runs under my fingers. Yes, I may have hit the guardrails a few times with Paul's badass muscle car. But it was a helluva ride! ;0

Be good to your babies
Give them what they need
Be Good to your babies
Keep ‘em nice and clean

When a baby is new
You must keep your heart true
Be true to your babies
Baby it’s you

Be good to your babies
And don’t you ever stop
Be good to your babies
Give ‘em everything you got

When a baby is born 
You must keep that boy warm
So be warm to your babies
Baby I’m yours

Don’t start wars
Sweep the floors
Teach them to dance
Give them a chance

And be good to your babies
Teach them how to read
Be good to your babies
And when they are asleep

The moon like a shell
With a secret to tell
Says be good to your babies
Be good to your babies

And be good to your babies
Yeah be good to your babies
Be good to your babies
Be good to your babies

Babies
Be good to your babies

Be Good to Your Babies

February 2023 DIAMC prompt was to write a song inspired by a name, which was to be included within the title. 

Yesterday I sat down, wrote and recorded, this song about - and for - my beautiful almost, almost always friend. We met when I was 9 and she was 10. 


Gwendoline

Northern lights watched late, from garage roof
Swung on swings with Walkmans, in our youth
Oh my darlin’, times were simpler then

There’ve been darker days, tears amongst laughter
Can’t stay kids for ever, and after
Oh my darlin’, growing up can hurt bad
 
I just hope that I always had your back

Wish I still took time and wrote more letters
To have and hold, with love from sender
Cos my darlin’, you know I’m really glad

All  these years you’ve been there for me too
The  lovely  things you say,  and that you do
Oh my darlin’, you’re the friend I’ve almost, almost, always had

Through all the good and bad
The happy and the sad
Lucky to have Gwendoline

If you need me darlin’, you just call
You know I’ll catch you if you fall
If you need me darlin’, you just call
You know I’ll catch you if you’re falling

Gwendoline - Demo

Within

Campy tongue in cheek or sincere lament? Well kinda both; this was just one of those stream of consciousness snippets that was ridiculous in the onset, and I never thought it'd be something I put out there but it kept snowballing and these things end up like a dog waiting by the door silently imploring  "Let's go for a walk."   My son attended an academic conference a few weeks ago and related that an environmental scientist believes we're cooked, literally and figuratively. We may need help but I don't think it's coming. My mortal expectancy extends only to introductory portents but my kids and granddaughter can expect to see the collapse of our environment unfolding in total, irreversible clarity. OK let's go back to making fun for now.

shining so long ago
you know it should've been time to leave
and to let you go

while there's still time before
you know it could've been beautiful with all that we have here
take a look around this around this is our only home 
there's nowhere else to go

we left before these things had come to mind
and now it's all so very clear it was not your time

where is that saving grace we left behind?
the shadow remnants of a world that could have been so fine
we left the saving grace to guide you through the perils of the darkest night
now your fragile world is burning

shining so long ago
you know it should've been time to leave and to let you go
are you ready for what's coming now?
doesn't matter that you don't believe

there will never be another time to make it right
there will be no dreaming in the common night
you had your chance and then another and another
but you never could comply 
any promises you make to change your habits just another lie

wait a minute there's something here that can't be found
anywhere else in this universe on this holy ground
take a minute take an hour take a day to change your mind
can't you see your way through to help us one more time

we settled you in Atlantis we left you signs in Peru
we taught you the secrets of life on the Nile
but you never could live up to the gifts that we gave to you

heaven knows we've been blind to the lessons we were given
time after time
and if we never seem to learn don't abandon us 
when our fate is so dire

is it too much to ask to want these things to last a little longer?
take pity on the children theirs is not the fault of the fathers

We Left

We got away from the city, hitched a ride on an old rusty bus.
Set up camp by the river side, dug a deep hole and
that's where we lit our fire, sat and watched embers in the night sky.

The summer breeze turned into a hurricane,
the shallow river began to rise.
With a point of a finger and a high pitched yell,
drew my attention to the wishing well of darkness,
think we've found something in the water, something in the water.

Don't don't you scream, don't you move too fast,
cause I know the answer to staying alive it's to slip away easy
and stay real quiet, stay real quiet.

We got away from the city, hitched a ride on an old rusty bus.
It was never mentioned we made our pledge,
to stay real stum about the thing at the rivers edge,
and what we found, something in the water, something in the water.

Deeper with Sneekie SanSalvador (Couch King)

Ce morceau de musique a été composé comme une variation stylistique sur un même thème musical afin d'illustrer cette petite histoire:
(0:00) Plein soleil dans un grand ciel bleu;
(0:10) Des dunes à perte de vue;
(0:21) Le désert du Rub al-Khali;
(0:47) Une caravane à l'horizon;
(0:58) Les Bédouins voyagent depuis des jours;
(1:08) La chaleur est écrasante;
(1:19) La routine s'est installée;
(1:29) La lassitude aussi;
(1:40) Des flèches tombent!;
(1:50) C'est une attaque de brigands;
(2:01) La caravane tente de fuir;
(2:11) Ils approchent;
(2:22) Les Bédouins sont encerclés;
(2:30) Ils doivent éviter les flèches;
(2:44) Corps-à-corps;
(2:51) Le combat est féroce;
(3:02) Les brigands sont mis en déroute;
(3:09) Ils battent en retraite;
(3:16) Retour au calme;
(3:54) La caravane reprend la route.
