Awesome that you get to play with your son, Mike. It's all sounding effectively bluesy to me. :)

Both piano and guitar elements are exceptional. Quality moody music you two. :)

I was just reading your bio. So awesome you started making music again! Awesome track! Thank you for sharing this 😊🎶

We are happy that we can work on our next Album, scheduled for 2023. This song will be on the album. A song to take out your guitars and ukuleles and sit down by the fire to sing along (about all the love that went wrong, or so). Let us know what you think! As always so much love, thanks and appreciation to the support from all of you on soundcloud!

Give your heart to the sailor
He'll discard it at sea
If you encounter the devil
send him greetings from me

I once fell for his daughter 
and she was no match for me
Don't you see

Let's sit down by the fire
Raise your glass to the sea
And if you were a liar
you'd say you love me

Put your faith in the helmsman
Don't be waiting for me
I'll be fine at the harbour
Send her greetings from me

We could never be more than
Two ships passing at sea
Come with me

Let's sit down by the fire
Raise your glass to the sea
And if you were a liar
you'd say you would love me

Let's sit down by the fire
Raise your glass to the sea
And if you were a liar
you'd be exactly like me

Sit Down By The Fire

No Other

Whiskey Blues With No Name- ft GBH

;-Fond Diffus Musical-;

I got all wavy in my studio and built this dark blues track - it became an exercise in melancholia..

EDIT: I cleaned up the mix a bit, but I cannot replace the current file until the next subscription cycle. The cleaner mix can be found here: https://www.reverbnation.com/totemspectre/song/33950391-slipping

lyrics:

While I stand looking over the water
In the dark
With a handful of thoughts slipping
Into the dark

Faces from the present
From the past
Times now felt much deeper than then
Way back when

Make it count
Every moment
If even just a handful of thoughts
Slipping into the dark
Make it count
Every moment

Smell the roses
Touch your hair
Kiss your skin
For a handful of thoughts
Slipping
Into the dark
Much deeper then

Slipping

Michael Mayo - Masterpiece - (Paploviante Remix)

The title of this track is a reference to the wartime term "no quarter", which also means "take no prisoners". The 'blood' red flag is often used as a symbol of this horrible practice and, in fact, it is considered a war crime to refuse to spare the life of anybody - i.e. to refuse quarter. The term "No Quarter" prompted me to research the meaning, which is where the concept for the song title came from.

In the original 1999 version of this tune, the only instrument was the echo-y electric piano sound, which was influenced heavily by the song "No Quarter" by Led Zeppelin. This is another tune I'd recommend listening to with headphones because of the heavy panning movement throughout. 

(special thanks to Chris [cgmaness] for the thoughtful perspective that reminded me of this incredible video, which speaks for itself. more like screams!  www.youtube.com/watch?v=9x7FGbW3IVc) 

Make music not war.

All comments welcome, and don't be shy to be critical or suggest ideas to help me improve.

I am retired and have taken up music again (after 60 years since I last played the classical piano)for my pleasure. It is great to redo the old classics with the modern sounds and electronic instruments of today. I
