K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–lyrics and vocals
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – PRS semi-hollow body electric guitar

This is a song that Frans wrote, recorded, and gave to Josh to share with the Eclectic Collective. Frans is playing all the foundational instruments of the incredibly intricate yet perfectly foundational rhythm section, including Fender electric bass, Roland synthesizer bass, Gibson SG electric guitar rhythm, Godin electric guitar slide background, trumpet background, horn section, including alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones, Hohner Blues Bender harmonica solo, Gibson 335 electric guitar background rhythm, a full set drum kit, percussion, cowbell, and tambourine. As mentioned in the previous sentence, he also plays the amazing harp solo after the second verse. All of Frans's music is a dazzling display of solo work on top of a dense, rock solid rhythm section. So, in that spirit, this song is a display of all of us taking 12 bars to show what we can do.
Tez was first to add his expert blues guitar in the section right after the opening vocals. Josh took the next slot, with the notey second guitar solo on the first chorus section. Stephen added his fiery guitar next, in the last slot, after Frans's harp solo. JJ was next in line, though, bringing his piano and organ to the mix, both in a support role throughout, and in the piano solo between Josh's solo and the second verse. Ken, then came up with some lyrics and sung the whole thing for us, very ably and in the propper spirit of the song (which was named randomly by Frans).
Of course, every great song needs a great producer, and we tapped Stephen to do the honors here, as he's our resident expert producer.
We are all honored and very grateful to Frans, whom we all respect and admire to a very high degree, for sharing this with us. On the off chance you aren't familiar with him, do yourself a favor and check out his page. He's as talented a multi-instrumentalist as you'll ever come across, with hours of astounding music on his page.
We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we all enjoyed creating it.
