Swinging 60's

The Blooming Rose

This song is John Mayall's tribute to a blues history giant living in Hollywood's Laurel Canyon many years ago. Bob Hite had an enormous collection of 78rpm blues artists "goin' back through the years, hear any record you choose".

I've been singing this song in public for many years without knowing Bob Hite (The Bear) "rolled" his last in 1981. Mea culpa.

The repertoire of Canned Heat and John Mayall has been a constant reference throughout my musical life.

On the seas

En Route V7 (Collab Thak Ghitar)

This song reminds me on a very poor woman in my hometown. She has no home and is collecting bottles from the trash all day. And other people nearly have everything, but they whine all the time. But the difference is, that this poor woman refuses every help, that many have offered to her and the other people feel better, when you have listened to them.

Another Day In Paradise (Phil Collins Cover)

So close but yet so far - we're reaching for a star - it's at our fingertips - we ignore who we really are - the truth is in my eyes - but you never look my way - you're so pre-occupied - going on with your day - I'm peeking in your room to see if you're awake - please don't make pretend - oh how my body aches - you're reaching for your phone - it's not me on the other end - does he really make you smile - can he give you everything
got so much time for him - time to throw away - wish you'd make him your past and spend some time today - cause baby we got time - time to see this through - if you've got time for me - then i got time for you
When did this go wrong - the two of us to blame - can you sleep at night - or do you feel ashamed - cause i know that I'm ashamed with all this fight in me - i still procrastinate - precious time is fleeting - if you just pick up your head - take one look at my face - it'll all come back to you - you let me take my place - so i sit and watch you sleep - cause i'd like to spend some time - oh how my body weeps - can't have what isn't mine
Chorus
We're bent but we're no broken - we're tired but we're awake - exchange cautionary glances - at what point will we break - i need some of your time - i miss you terribly - I'm in the other room - come and spend some time with me
chorus
