method: to distract me from the everyday task of fighting demons of the mind,  I set out with a gregorian version, only to understand that my voice was not up to standards and expectations. You can still hear that choral in the background. Well, gregorian monks might might have actually sounded like that – not everyone is a pitch creature after all. After postponing some iterations to enjoy creating UP UP AND OUT with Jeff (and assissting in setting the next project on good tracks), I  then added layers to better match what my mind heard to what the headphones belted out. Somehow, I did not let go of the initial composition, though – feeling attached to its disjointed, squealing humanity. Call me sentimental and you’re right. I also just felt like taking this ride on the RC-505, rediscovering my former companion from hitherto unexplored angles ;-) 

Narration: the poem is about an evolution – or a journey to the sea – whatever you prefer to call it. having become aware of the circumstance that I am more of a liability than an asset in certain processes, I found myself in the clutches of a transformation that needed processing itself – and a good deal of sublimation, I guess.

poem / copyright jo richter:

all the hardly humid barrens
harbour time in arid sands

while the early einkorn seedlings
of the floodlands sway and bend

and the tides bring tidal tidings
weighing vapour, thermal scales

ah, the oceans, giant oceans
breathing water, water whales

This is a very old song written in 2001 and one of the first songs I recorded with Charlie. It's a kind of Disco Jazz Pop song, with a nice wah-wah guitar but not recorded too well on my old TASCAM 8-track tape machine. I was going to record it all over again but I'm way too busy and behind to re-record it. I'm not even sure if I'm allowed to say "Beautiful Blonde" anymore but she was and I ain't changing the lyrics now. It's just a fluffy little nothing song, very light-hearted and innocent like songs used to be! No deep meaning here, just dancing for dancing's sake! So here it is with all the bumps, bruises, flat notes, and my horrid singing! Charlie and I both sang it together in spots (We should have rehearsed it a bit more! We just winged it!😂) and Charlie played a nice Jazzy harmonica on it as well!
     There's a nice story behind it, Mid-life crisis mode again, I was out with a few friends and we stopped by a nice retro club downtown that had a live band playing 60's and 70's music and I guess I had a few too many and nobody was dancing, so I just got up on the floor and started to dance by myself. At the time I was in my 40's and I could still dance pretty good, I'm a very active dancer, funky/disco/latin vibe, I could even moonwalk!😂 Anyway, about the second or third song this very good-looking blonde started dancing with me? Out of nowhere? And we danced all night until my friends wanted to leave. I left with them and never got her name or number or anything, just the memory! She was a very sweet and nice person, well a Beautiful Blonde lady, I do remember that!😂 A few days later I wrote this song from the experience. I know it's pretty rough around the edges and my recording equipment was pretty crappy at the time but the spirit is still in there, somewhere, with some good lyrics too!

I put the video together last year and had a lot of fun doing it! I tried to put in 100 beautiful blonde ladies in ti!😂 It's very true what they say the Blondes have more fun! I hope everyone enjoys my little moonwalking down Memory Lane. And in honor of International World Blonde Day, which was on May 31st, here's to all the beautiful blonde out there!  Cheers! 🥂 Thanks again for listening and take care! 🙏😎✌🏼

“BEAUTIFUL BLONDE”

BEAUTIFUL BLONDE DANCING WITH ME,   
TAKING MY BREATH AWAY, HARD TO BELIEVE,                
MAKING ME FALL RIGHT FROM THE START,    
BEAUTIFUL BLONDE MELTING THIS FOOLISH HEART,      

BEAUTIFUL EYES LOOKING AT ME,   
SOFT AS A SUMMER DAY, BLUE AS THE SEA,   
CHANGING MY LIFE WITH JUST A GLANCE,   
BEAUTIFUL EYES TEMPTING THIS FOOLISH MAN,

LOST IN HER ARMS, WRAPPED IN HER SMILE,        
LIVING A THOUSAND LIFETIMES IN THE BRIEFEST OF WHILES,          
HOLDING HER CLOSE AND KEEPING HER NEAR,         
IS MY HEAVEN ON EARTH,         
IS THE REASON I’M HERE,
     
BEAUTIFUL BLONDE DAZZLING ME,     
GETTING ME HIGH, MAKING ME FLY, SETTING ME FREE,       
MAKING ME WISH THAT I HAD A CHANCE,     
BEAUTIFUL BLONDE IN A BEAUTIFUL DANCE,     

LOST IN HER ARMS, WRAPPED IN HER SMILE,       
LIVING A THOUSAND LIFETIMES IN THE BRIEFEST OF WHILES,          
HOLDING HER CLOSE AND KEEPING HER NEAR,        
IS MY HEAVEN ON EARTH,         
IS THE REASON I’M HERE,

BEAUTIFUL BLONDE DAZZLING ME,    
GETTING ME HIGH, MAKING ME FLY, SETTING ME FREE,     
MAKING ME WISH THAT I HAD A CHANCE,     
BEAUTIFUL BLONDE IN A BEAUTIFUL DANCE,    
IN A BEAUTIFUL DANCE, 
IN A BEAUTIFUL DANCE,   
IN A BEAUTIFUL DANCE, 
IN A BEAUTIFUL DANCE.
