Very awesome nostalgic Pop-Jazz-Collab. Especially love the underlying Beat-Structure...

smooth sound and tight performance.  I love the crooner style vocals!

Just a great big full soothing surrounding sound.  You found the perfect crooner to make it work.  Really enjoyed guys.

Some of Us is Me

2022 Janine Levinson
Guitar: Jonathan Beckenstein  @jonathan_beckenstein
   
I’m sorry that I’m not somebody else    
I’m sorry if I let my people down
I didn’t ask for anybody’s help        
I’m sorry that I waited for this long

But it’s like trying to move your life ahead with a stranger at the wheel 
While trying very hard to get along

I’m sorry that I wrecked my lover’s heart
I hope he knows I wrecked my own heart too
I should have looked somewhere outside myself
I hope there’s room for me inside of you

Cause I’ve been trying to stand up straight when I am broken past repair
And still trying very hard to fix what’s wrong 

Some folks have got it made 
Frolicking in the shade of live oak tree
But some of us we don’t sing so loud, 
And we’re looking down
Some of us is me

I sometimes wish tomorrow wouldn’t come
But yesterday has problems of his own 
Next to you’s the only thing I’ve got
I wish I knew someplace where I belonged   

And I’ve been trying to stand up straight 
‘Cause I was thinking you might share--
And make my little world not feel so wrong

Some folks have got it made 
Frolicking in the shade of live oak tree
But some of us we don’t sing so loud, 
And we’re looking down
Some of us is me

I recall I wrote most of the melody of this song inside my head while travelling and on some pre-written lyrics.  However when I got down to the singing, I couldn't cope with some of the notes.  I'm so glad Terry came to the rescue and did a marvelous job here.    He also brought some very nice tweaks to the melody, lyrics & harmony arrangement.  Hope you like our collaboration.

[LYRICS]
Skies, inconsistent skies, bring uncertainty
Rain, incessant rain, keeps on pouring...(pouring down)
Hopes, elusive hopes,
Only keep us dreaming
Endless waiting is the saddest place to be

Oh I have tried so many times to do the best I can
Somehow it doesn't seem to matter at all
I ask myself what I'm gonna do when all's been done and fallen through
Now I'm standing with my back to the wall

(Chorus)
Life, everyday sort of life,
Living everyday through the rain and shine
World, this ruthless world,
Keeps on spinnin' in time
Empty days, and rocky ways,
Far too many for us to face
It's been one of ….......
It's been one of…........
It's been one of those days
It's been one of those days

Instrumental break

Repeat Chorus

It's been one of, it's been one of….
It's been one of those days

One Of Those Days (featuring Terry Wigmore)

Where are You Now [Street Mix]

If this ain’t nice then what is ?  This was said by Kurt Vonneguts’ uncle at family gatherings according to Kurt in a YouTube video of one of his lectures about the shapes of stories . So it goes .

Joe Strummer made some of the best music I’ve ever heard .  Phenomenal songwriter musician who made each song his own.  He wrote a song titled “Ramshackle Day Parade” .  So it goes .

The vw bus bit is a high school memory.  Imagine The 70’s Show .  Old Bob is a ditty from long, long ago.

If this ain’t nice 

Do you remember full back seat 
Freshman September full back seat

Volkswagen micro bus
Sits upon four cinder blocks
Move the rear view mirror 
So I see you see me

Do you remember full back seat 
Freshman September full back seat 

Old Bob can’t find a job
And never will
Old Bob married Jill 
Poor Jill 

If this ain’t nice 
Then what is 
Living day after day
In the great
Ramshackle day parade

if this ain’t nice

Another track done with the remarkable https://soundcloud.com/nakedverse soon to be featured on an unfinished E.P. we are working on. you will always hear it here first. This is a song , a positive outlook about the future of humanity.
Lyrics:-
Are we in the wilderness
As we search for happiness
Is confusion on the menu
As we choose our daily venues
We're bolder and older
And love is something else
The main thing's the right thing to do
It always helps

The twilight between times
Is something to embrace
Before change happens
And everything's replaced
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth

When life seems to take its toll
And you can't get on a roll
There's a million different people
Having other such upheaval
Who told you , consoled you
That this is all you get
It's time to , define you
Think what you'll create 

The twilight between times
Is something to embrace
Before change happens
And everything's replaced
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth

It's gonna be so good
Better than before

C'mon out the wilderness
You can find your happiness
With no confusion on the menu 
As you change your daily venues
We're bolder and older
And love is something else
The main thing's the right thing to do
It always helps

The twilight between times
Is something to embrace
Before change happens
And everything's replaced
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth

No Limit - Paploviante

The ancient metropolis of Istanbul probably derives its name from the Greek 'Stin Polis' ('in the city')(according to Sean Lusk's excellent book 'The Second Sight of Zachary Cloudesly)having previously been Constantinople the capital of the Byzantine Empire.
This incredible city spans the continents of Europe and Asia and reflects aspects of both in its culture and people. 
(Photo taken from a trip on The Bosphorus...the waterway dividing the city's continents.)

Istanbul

remastered this one for posterity...and for Devin Locke ; )

glad you came down

A Big Thank You to Zeralda for composing and contributing these wonderful keythemes and the rhythm section…

The picture shows „Ursli“, member of my bro’s family, a pronounced sniffer…

You can use red contact lenses
You can also glue on a false beard
Maybe put a wig upon your head
Or simply dye your hair
Using sausage water to create a false trail ?
Or hide in Mino's maze

ref 
nonetheless, nonetheless, nonetheless

2
You can plane your fingertips
Put on a perfume Chanel No 5
You can walk backwards in the snow
You may even use stealth technology
You can change means of transport
Or walk upstream
Perhaps hiding behind waterfalls
Or also put on a spacesuit
You can speed away in a really fast car
Even take a plane
You can hide on a cruise- or containership
As a blind passenger

ref 
but nonetheless, but nonetheless

3
You can forge the ID
Even swap your tax number
Or even change your health insurance
You can lay false tracks everywhere

out (2)
You might think you left without trace
But Dr Sniff’s already got your pace
You could even try to hide in hell
But Dr Sniff’s already taken up your smell 

Already taken up your smell… (4)

Dr Sniff (Collab wt Zeralda)

A singer-songwriter who cannot read notes, doesn't play much instruments except a little keyboard & guitar and consider singing as the most difficult part for him.

So in case you're wondering how a guy like this would sound, just spare some of your time for a listen.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
