Yes, it would seem greed trumps idealism, something that's hard for me to accept but is nonetheless true.  Shame though.

Definitely gonna send this one  to my son to listen to ha ha . Thank Dave . Johnny

We think we have it figured out until our turn comes to do the figuring.  We fall back into the pattern we were taught and should have forgot.  An instructive meditation; can that horrible circle be broken?

I like the whole "boss is a jerk - need more money" line. Deft my boss is a jerk and deft need more money.

It was 1995, I had already acquired my trusty Alesis SR-16 "Dr No" but not hooked it up in stereo yet on my 4-track cassette recorder.

This track is one of the more fun I made in those days, thought I'd share it here. For the occasion, I properly mixed and mastered it in such a way to keep it's original character intact as much as possible. I did put *some* fancy effect to stereoize the vocals a little, and there is a subtle stereo reverb on the drums.. Things like that, but that's just to make it palatable for the modern crowd. This is after all an original recording, no edits, no overdubs.

Thinking about putting an entire 'legacies' album together. Would anyone be interested in that?

The very mature lyrics:

Salvation song
Connect me if I'm wrong
Me I am cracked, broken and torn
Haven't been clean ever since I was born

But I don't bear much pain
I'm not gonna jump no train
Every single hour every single day
Guess life is just a game

Some say I am insane
Some say I am just the same
As all them youth rebel rabble rebel rabble
Well I know better but you won't hear me tell
Everyone lives his own little hell
Let them turn around in their own smell
I let them feel bad if they let me feel well
It be alright with me

I know I only live to be
I know this is all you can see
I live to be just like the trees
And the flowers and the bees

Some say I am insane
Some say I am just the same
As all them you rebel rabble rebel rabble
Let live through their own hell
Let them live with their own smell

Salvation

Salvation song
Connect me if I'm wrong
Me I am cracked broken and torn
Haven't been clean ever since I was born

Some say salvation
Everyone, everyone...
Rebel rabble rebel rabble
Loser! Loser!

When the Day Is Done

Tubular Loops Pt.1

I always wonder what happened to the energy and ideals of my generation as we aged and it seems it is a repeating failing cycle universally.While some things changed for the better I have to say most human conditions have been pretty stagnant and I wonder if the trivial obligations of living are just to powerful for the idealistic goals of life. Anyways I do remain a hopeless optimist

lyrics:

every generation thinks they have the answers to it all
the errors of their stupid parents written clearly on the walls
how could they have been so heartless
how can they have been so cruel
we will never end like that because we know the golden rule

there's kids to raise
the boss's a jerk
I need more money and less work
I don't have time to think of you
I don't have time to help
I need a bigger car you see
so keep your hands off of my share
it was never big enough for me
I cannot listen to your woes
the past is dead to me
I do not recall
what happened to you back then at all

now my kids are acting up
they have no common sense
they think that they can change the world
they do not know what's in store for them

the sun comes up..the moon goes down
or is it the other way around??

Josephine: 
 There's rain on my window, but I'm thinking of you
 Tears on my pillow, but I will come through  
 Josephine, I'll send you all my love,  and every single step I take, I'll take for you  
Josephine, I'll send you all my love,  
 Josephine, I'll send you all my love  .

Now there's a storm on my radar, but I can still fly  
 But you are the reason for the blue in my sky   
 Josephine, I'll send you all my love,  and every single step I take, 
I'll take for you
My Josephine, I'll send you all my love,   
 Josephine, I'll send you all my love

 Josephine, I'll send you all my love,  
and every single step I take, I'll take for you
My Josephine, I'll send you all my love,   
 Josephine, I'll send you all my love
 When I'm far away, oh so far away, I'll send you all my love  
 Joseph-ine, I'll send you all my love,               
 Joseph-ine, I'll send you all my love ...

About the dissolution of a band, particularly my bands!!Trying to keep one together is futile, been “ cancelled “ a few times… not for inerrant behavior, but because of stated beliefs.., just a drummer who likes creating and recording hopefully cool tunes… I am nobody’s final judge… just a prompter on side stage… don’t endorse everything, but I am far from perfect.., but I profess and know, One who is… wish the cookie was still in tact, and we put it up on the refrigerator, for all to gaze at… trying to make new cookies, these days….I think it’s kinda like if Kurt Cobain sang with The Knaack! Could b wrong.., still hope you enjoy!!🤩🤩🤩😎😎😎
