Kick'n Back

I came across this little improv I did a while back on Pat Howell's beautifully crafted home-built guitar, and had been keeping it in my back pocket for St. Patty's Day.  In this track I riff on some tunes I've played over the last several years but take on a new richness played on his guitar in drop D tuning.  If you're keeping score, the first is "Emerald Isle", the second is "A Splash of Joy" and last is "Celtic D'lite".  Enjoy with your favorite Irish brew:)

Celtic Musings On Pat's Guitar

Light the sea 

When the night surprises me
that I am not sleepy alone 
then I defy time 
I implore the return of the sun 
and I think of the one who is missing 
that gives me wings

when the wind tells me
what it sees from the sky
these hatreds as old as the world 
that flow like rivers of shame
so I look at the one that counts 
and it gives me wings 

when my soul is adrift
I sail on a drunken boat
she is my lighthouse I rely on her
to light the sea, to show me the sky 

when life torments me
when questions fly in the air
when words lose their meaning
when expectations remain vain
then I look at the one I love 
so that she opens her wings to me

when my soul is lost and capsizes
when in the distance I can no longer see the shore 
she is my lighthouse I rely on her
to light the sea, to show me the sky

Eclairer La Mer (translated lyrics)

Lyrics (Original Song)
Fear can make us jump like a puppet on a string
Survival mode to the rescue designed to save our skins
But when I let fear get a hold of me 
I can never be who I am meant to be
Am I my brother’s keeper  
Am I a stranger’s friend
Can I find safe harbor  
where I can live my life despite my fear  
The Dragon Slayer warned us of  the enemies in our midst
who strips the clouds of rain corrupts our spirits
So we rallied around the Dragon Slayers banner
And forgot the kindness we once knew
Repeat Chorus
In an instant fear rallies against danger
But calls us to set aside the beauty that blooms only  when we feel safe inside
Repeat Chorus

Fear

Lu Bu（?〜199）

In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Lu Bu's heroic performance stands out.

However, he betrayed his father-in-law, Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo, and wandered the battlefield.

Cao Cao hesitated about how to deal with Lü Bu, but Liu Bei decided to decapitate him.
At the end, he is said to have cursed Liu Bei, saying that he was the most untrustworthy person.

在《三国演义》中，吕布的英雄表现尤为突出。

然而，他背叛了岳父丁原和董卓，流浪沙场。

曹操犹豫如何对付吕布，刘备却让他决定处死吕布。
最后说刘备是最不值得信任的人。

「人中有吕布，马中有赤兔」
This means that “among men there is a hero named Lu Bu, and among horses there is a great horse named Red Rabbit”.
意思是“人中有英雄吕布，马中有大马赤兔”。

I recorded my version of Las Vegas (in the hills of Donegal), a 1992 hit by Goats Don't Shave. In my new arrangement I have inserted the sound of my uilleann pipes. The funny lyrics of the song speak of an imaginary scenario where a city like Las Vegas, with its casino's, strip clubs, hotels, was built in Ireland, in the green lands of Donegal. What could happen?

Je pense que le titre dit tout, avec ces montées de chaleur extrême.

I think the title says it all, with those extreme heat rushes.
