Story :
Here is a bit of what happens when you loose someone you cherish above all.. the one who gave you inconditional love, the one who gave you life! 
I was still a young music student at this time, but it seemed youth - and all its carelessness - would never ever be.
Nothing I was able to do except... crying, and, just after one week -  when walking along the sea apart from family , trying to find interior peace and accepting - composing this!
I wrote music as I could when back in my car (always had some music paper and a pen in it) and words came instantly.
Days after I could check it on a guitar, and only one year later record it. 
Never been able to play it with bands so that you’re almost the first listeners here … more than three decades later
Hope you will appreciate

The anticipation - the standoff - the requiem 

A favorite movie of mine from my younger days is "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly" famously ending in a Mexican Standoff between Clint Eastwood, Eli Wallach and Lee Van Cleef. Directed by Sergio Leone with music by Ennio Morricone I recommend this spaghetti western to anybody who hasn't seen it.  On a whim I thought I would perform a musical reenactment, although in my version there are no survivors.

The experimental part of this has to do with the reverb on the drums in the "shootout" to simulate gunshots.

A Mexican standoff is a confrontation where no strategy exists that allows any party to achieve victory. Any party initiating aggression might trigger everyone's demise. At the same time, the parties are unable to extract themselves from the situation without suffering a loss. [Wikipedia]

Mexican Standoff

Recorded in Modesto, Ca.  Featuring Gibson 335 Electric Guitar solo.  Fender Rhodes Electric Piano solo. Trumpet solo. Acoustic Bass. Roland Synthesizer Bass.  Acoustic Piano Rhythm. Trap drum set. Percussion Congas, Bongos, Cowbell, Timbales, Zildjen Crash cymbal.

When an already beautiful animal, preening the moonlit marshes, seems to dance for you; you have no choice but to compose a waltz for it.

Lyrics:

Feet kicking by the water
This land is mine, many years a squatter
Hanks had Wilson and I have no-one
Just me and the goo holes in the sand for fun
The days grow like vines but they choke the veins
Hurricanes blow and scatter remains
Riches in the crater never mean a thing
If no one is there to share and bring
My kingdom is numb, What have I become?
Too long on an island can reduce you to crumbs
Perception is lost, neuron holocaust
Might go for the mermaid drop a salad toss
Might build a raft from an apes bones and guts
Might drop a load in the fruit, Coconut!
Might tear off my skin and burn it over the coals
Because i'm so fucking tired of playing these roles!

Sanity crashes in the sands of me
A look from the sea would be
Sanity crashes in the sands of me
A look from the sea would be
Sanity crashes in the sands of me
A look from the sea could be...... FREE!

On An Island

so back in time again to the start of this brand new millenium , here is a very cynical inspection of this thing we call romance . I thought this would be timely to put out there.

Valentines (Raw Demo 2002)

We are very happy to present today a great singer and songwriter, as well as a sensational musician and producer named Richard Gonfrier. With him we have had a great musical connection that has been transformed into this wonderful pop song called "Just Tell Me More".
From MTM we are very grateful to Richard, his girlfriend Delphine for making the cover, the great work done, how professional he has been and what a wonderful person that despite the distance we have intuited at all times that he is.
We are nobody to say it, but I hope that Richard can allow us to express that ... surely a person very close to him and who has recently left for another wonderful place, will be listening to him with great pride.
