Techno Boogie

Brothers jam for the first time in November 2018.  Mr. D is a reference to Miles Davis, who employed John McLaughlin and John Scofield, both of whom I learned a lot about how to play like you don't know music when you do, and how to play like you do know music when you do not.  I do a lot of the latter but a little more and more of the former as time goes by.

This song is one of my new songs that I wrote this year. It's a fantasy song, a nostalgic song, thinking back when a child's imagination was full of Wonderland and Oz, how quick we let those fantastic lands and stories go. So I wrote a song about being a kid and just imagining those magical places again. I added a little funky piece in the bridge for fun. I just finished a video for this song that is fantastically psychedelic with colors and sounds kind of like my "Color Me Gone" video. If you watch the video on YouTube you will be transported back with a child's imagination once again! I'll be posting it in a few weeks.  I sang this one so please forgive me for that. So with all that being said "Come with me, and you'll be, in a world of pure imagination, take a look, and you'll see, into your imagination" (Willie Wonka).

“MY FAIRYTALE”

MY FAIRYTALE,
THE ONE WHERE LOVE NEVER FAILS,
WHERE WE DANCE LIKE THE STARS IN THE HEAVENS,
AND I LOSE MYSELF IN YOUR EYES,                   

MY FAIRYTALE,
WHERE DREAMS OF LOVE ALWAYS PREVAIL, 
IT MAY BE ONLY A CHILDLIKE ILLUSION, 
BUT IT’S MAGICAL, 
YOU AND I,
  
NO NEED TO WONDER WHY,
NO NEED TO ASK YOURSELF IF THIS FANTASY IS A LIE,
IT’S A FAIRYTALE,
IT’S MY FAIRYTALE,  
LET’S FLY,
     
MY FAIRYTALE,
WHERE LOVE CAN NEVER BE DERAILED, 
I KNOW IT’S ONLY FANCIFUL THINKING,
BUT THAT’S HOW I FEEL INSIDE, 
  
MY FAIRYTALE,
WITH ALL THE SPLENDOR IT ENTAILS,       
IT’S A WORLD WHERE ONLY TWO OF US LIVE IN,
IT’S SUPERNATURAL,  
YOU AND I,
      
NO NEED TO WONDER WHY,
NO NEED TO ASK YOURSELF IF THIS FANTASY IS A LIE,
IT’S A FAIRYTALE,
IT’S MY FAIRYTALE,  
LET’S FLY,

[LEAD/BRIDGE]         

NO NEED TO WONDER WHY,
NO NEED TO ASK YOURSELF IF THIS FANTASY IS A LIE,
IT’S A FAIRYTALE, IT’S MY FAIRYTALE,  
IT’S A FAIRYTALE, IT’S MY FAIRYTALE, 
IT’S A FAIRYTALE, IT’S MY FAIRYTALE,
IT’S A FAIRYTALE, IT'S MY FAIRYTALE,
IT'A A FAIRYTALE, IT'S MY FAIRYTALE.

Past The Wall

Welcome to my experimentatal drop in the SoundCloud; and check out playlists of my creations mixed with others I like.  I have no idea if my art is entertaining, but it is the noise inside my head, and I invite you to listen and decide if you find something in it, too. It’s called “the ignorant savants”. I create from a place of an ignorance-wielding-tech-American.  😉  I am a sometimes preachy published poet and find the company of muses and master musicians magnificant.🌱
