great collab here, full of emotions, top!!!!

this is the sound of pain  --just like itpos' to be !!!

That is a very cool rendition ... great collab guys ... wonderful performances!!

Otis was a legend, and Martin you have served him well, only better with the bluesy guitar.

You guys really captured a moment in time...cool arrangement!

Superb vocals, Leslie sounds, and of course the Magical Guitarin', Tom. That gorgeous Blues'in riff'n came in exactly in the right place too. Otis woulda' surely loved this one, too. :D)))

Lyrics - The Wind
I listen to the wind, to the wind of my soul
Where I'll end up, well I think only God really knows
I've sat upon the setting sun...
But never, never, never, never
I never wanted water once
No never, never, never

I listen to my words but they fall far below
I let my music take me where my heart wants to go
I swam upon the Devil's lake...
But never, never, never, never
I'll never make the same mistake
No - never, never, never

I LOVE THE WAY YOU SMELL 

It’s not the way I walk 
- You’ve got a funny way of walking
It’s not the way I talk 
- I never listen when you’re talking

-But the other boys can go to hell 
‘Cause you know I like the way you smell

It’s not the clothes I wear 
- I don’t notice what you’re wearing
It’s not my movie star hair 
- Your looks are kind of overbearing

-But the other boys can go to heck 
‘Cause I just want to sniff your neck

Someone can be as pretty as you please 
Smart as a whip or crazy for me 
But I can’t see the forest for your trees
Cause when it comes to love I’m olfactory

When you’re around me you just stutter and stammer 
- ‘Cause the air around you has got some kind of glamour

-The other boys just aren’t as glamorous
The scent of you makes me amorous

What is it about me that’s so alluring? 
- If I told you it wouldn’t be reassuring

-For other boys I just don’t care
Come over here and let me smell your hair

-Yeah you don’t have to win me over 
Cause I really love the way that you smell

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

ACROSS THE COSMOS

View from the Afternoon

Our band was named Watchglass just after I joined and one of Mark's science teacher friends joked that we may as well have called ourselves Petri Dish. This is the song I wrote to give our band name more deep and meaninglfulness. Oh and we will be recording a modern version of this soon! 

Lyrics:
If I could sift out
All the elements
Maybe I could find out
What it's all about
A grain of sand
Or beach in summer tones
An autumn leaf
Or an ocean to the depths below

Well I took a step back
Then I made it three times a million
And what did I see
I saw the thing that keeps us turning

A lover's glance
Or fans at a Beatles show
A drop of dew
Or an ocean to the depths below
A bird in fight
or just a wish for a higher place
A single step
On an upwards staircase

Oh I took a step back
Then I made it three times a million
And what did I see
I saw the thing that keeps us turning

Oh oh, keeps us turning
Fires burning, yearning or even hurting
Love
All that was left in my Watchglass after all

Watchglass

Love me keep me

Midnight Talking (For two guitars)

One of those moods I got into from My tele ...

On The Run

I grew up listening to country music along with early Rock & Roll. Chuck
Berry was nicknamed "Father of Rock & Roll.  With such songs as
Maybellene, Roll Over Beethoven, Rock & Roll Music and Johnny B. Goode he topped the charts in the 1950's.  Every guitar player of my
generation played or tried to play Johnny B Goode.  He died March 18, 2017. No one does it like Chuck Berry, so I decided to do my version of Nadine as a tribute to the man.  Thanks
