Not much I can do about the tragic events in Ukraine. I've decided that the aggressors can't appropriate the Z, so I'm taking it back in this metaphorical musical battle.

This is a tweaked master (for some of you this may be basics). I moved both the organ and vocal noisegate from last to first in the effects chain. This allows the effects such as delay to work and sound as intended. Also tried a saturator on the lead "high" vocal to make it stand out more in the mix. You will all let me know if this worked (it is most noticeable at the end where you can hear the organ fade out with the planned delay). On a side-note if anybody is interested in how the "sucking" effect is achieved on the drums it is using a combination of regular and reverse reverb. 

TAKING BACK THE Z

I’m taking back the Z
You can’t have it
You can’t have it
You can’t have it
You can’t have it
You can’t have it
It’s not white 
Z belongs to U
Yellow and blue
U
Yellow and blue
U

I can’t let go, it’s all I got
I can’t let go, it’s all I got
I can’t let go, no 

I’ll move from place to place
I’ll zig and I’ll zag
I’ll duck and I’ll hide
I’ll stay alive
I can’t let go, no

I’ll weave and I’ll bob
Be a thorn in your side
I’ll run and I’ll jump
No river’s too wide
I can’t let go, no

I’m taking back the Z
It’s all mine
It’s all mine
It’s all mine
It’s all mine
It’s all mine
It’s not white
Z belongs to U
Yellow and blue
U
Yellow and blue
Yellow and blue

I can’t let go, it’s all I got
I can’t let go, it’s all I got
I can’t let go, no 

I’ll beg and I’ll pray, 
Turn every stone
I’ll rant and I’ll rave
I’ll never rest
I can’t let go, no

I’ll be your worst nightmare
No matter your might
Be your worst nightmare 
Both day & night
I can’t let go, no

It’s all mine…

Taking Back The Z | Davy Vance 🎸

Just Step Outside

“I believe like a child that suffering will be healed and made up for, that all the humiliating absurdity of human contradictions will vanish like a pitiful mirage, like the despicable fabrication of the impotent and infinitely small Euclidean mind of man, that in the world's finale, at the moment of eternal harmony, something so precious will come to pass that it will suffice for all hearts, for the comforting of all resentments, for the atonement of all the crimes of humanity, for all the blood that they've shed; that it will make it not only possible to forgive but to justify all that has happened.”

― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

Diptych II.  Oeuvre au blanc

A country hearted song today . From my poem 
Working on my LAST NUMBER ONE by Glen Granthem
Playing my Ovation sitting in the sun
Trying to write a song That'll reach Number One
Music is the center to everything I see
And it only gets better when you let yourself be free
Yes I'm working on my last number one
Yes I'm writing this song just for fun
Strumming my Ovation adding to my list
But maybe there's something I've  missed
Well I've been playing music for over sixty years
Can't stop those melodies ringing  in my ears
I can only do it my way Country Rock and Blues
Playing all the parts anyway I choose
Working on my last number one
 I'm writing this song just for fun
Strumming my Ovation adding to my List
 But maybe there's somethings I missed
SOLO

Last Number One ( Original ) With Lyrics

I never really cared for the finished product i posted last week, it never really sounded right. I loved the Roy Bittan style piano, and that took a long time to learn and record, but it didn't work so i scrapped it for the fender organ that i played on the fly. And I transposed it up a third, and reworked the words and completely remixed it.  I think it works a lot better now.. 

I don’t want to be the one you call up on the telephone
To see if I could come around ‘cause you don’t wanna be alone
Don’t get me wrong I want to spend some time with you
Don’t get me wrong but do you feel the same for me I feel for you
I don’t want to be the one that’s always looking in your eyes
Then you turn lights down low
And suddenly I’m paralyzed
It makes my heart start to stutter my knees they shake
and my words they flutter
I don’t want to be the one that ends up feeling like a fool, 
I don’t want to be the one when love has faded and we’re through
Love’s so overrated, it makes your life so complicated

I Don't Want To Be The One (Redux)

Diamond: An original song by;

Another track from my EP "Short Songs For Tall People"
Lyrics:
You say your name is society and you think you’re sick?
Sit down, patient, and I’ll examine you!
Uh huh, just what I thought:
That complexion of yours--grey as a flophouse bed sheet.
Your breath--reeking of smog and sewer gas!
Headaches? What do you expect, with nothing but cash registers clanging inside your empty skull?

I'm a beatnik Daddy-O
I've got an electric bongo
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O
I howl, I scowl
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O

Of course your stomach hurts!
You’ve swallowed too many dreams, too many hopes, and turned them into one gigantic ulcer.
Look out—your hands are trembling—any minute now and you may drop a bomb!

I'm a beatnik Daddy-O
Steely Dan's a dildo
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O
I play pinball
I play Pachinko
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O

I’ve got news for you, society—you’re not sick, you’re dead!
Solid Baby!
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O
I've got an electric bongo
I'm a beatnik Daddy-O

And I’m going to bury you and dance the twist on your grave!
Solid Baby!
(Punctuated by finger snaps and applause.)
