This demo recording turned out particularly well, especially when compared to how most of my MYTHOPOETICA recordings sound. The lead guitar employs an Eastern Folk scale and style of picking, greased with GEM-style Blues butter.
SUPER YOU…

Psychedelic Folk. Ever meet that special someone in a laundromat? Ever do it on top the dryer? Either way, you’re sure to dig this clean groove. Compilation by Stephen L. Krell and Gene Eric Mann.
One of my favorite recordings and favorite songs. The drums of this Political Folk tune was generated with the Yamaha E313. The lead guitar break needs replaced with a violin, but…
THE FINAL HOUR
Welcome to the final hour
Everybody kneel…
Another Psychedelic Sea Shanty. This one follows a Fox Trot beat. I didn’t have a mic screen when I recorded the vocal tracks – my voice is piercing at moments. Hope you are nonetheless able to enjoy the mix-down. Pan flute by Starry Nightmoth…
This song is really intriguing. A who done it sort of tale. I love the line that Poor Old Admiral Smith....he's not with! Really make a person try to hear the lyrics that follow just to find out exactly what went down! Amazing how so much of a story forms by the end!
A Sea Shanty with a bit of Psychedelic seasoning. Guest artist Starry Nightmoth performs the “harmonica” on a Yamaha KB as the song fades out.
37 SAILS
Thirty-seven sails be a full rigged ship
Open up ye hatch and pour ye spirit down…
Really cool song! The theme and melody are really memorable. The riff with the fife/synth is really cool. I like the other synth sounds too. Like seagulls circling a ship at points!Also the strumming is really rich and full! Great way to start the day!

One of my better Psych Folk recordings. Intro voice and keyboards by Starry Nightmoth. BG rhythm/drums generated using a Yamaha E313 KB. Lyrics, music and all other instruments and vocals are my fault.

Not an overall bad recording, and I’m quite pleased with the lyrics of this Psychedelic Folk tune.
FUTURE BOUND
Should I take the left or should I pass it by zoom?
Lost my faith in maps, so how will I decide zoom?
Spirits crying to be…
Thanks for your kind comments! I've been listening through your stuff, I'm amazed with how much material you have, you seem to pull riffs out of thin air! Good use of sound fx for storytelling :)
JUMPSUIT BLUES
As I slept this morning,
I dreamed of what you said
How you said you loved me,
And from my toes to head
Then I woke to Chow Call,
Prison walls around my bed
‘Morning to you, Jesus!
How did you sleep last night…

Crumbs - this is good... Listening on headphones, wondering whether I've been drinking or not.
Started out as very relaxing - slightly disturbing after a while! lol
The thunder and rain came as a welcome release of the tension.
Really well put together.
PRETTY GIRL
Pretty girl, pretty dress
Well, I must confess my heart is in a mess
Pretty girl
Some guys can walk up to a girl
Say, "Hey! I love you
They make it look like something
So easy to do
Pretty girl, pretty dress
Well, I…
Reminds me of a few early John and Paul collaborations -- a bit of psychedelic seasoning, an intriguing flow, a bridge that's like a whole other song. Brilliant! Great job!
Two Northumbrian Jigs for Concertina.net theme of the month for March 2015.
Lamb Skinnett is traditional Northumbrian. Wood Nunrich Fair I found in a book of tunes for Northumbrian Pipes.
Played on Anglo Concertina, Tenor Ukulele & Bass…
LYRICS:
With Or Without You
Try to get along but it takes two
It’s a Whole lot of me and not much you
Working myself right to the bone
Thinking that I am all alone
Just like a monkey up in the tree
Throwing your feces straight…
"Just like a monkey up in the tree
Throwing your feces straight at me" -- definitely my favorite lines in this number! Such a beautiful song, so gorgeous, and the lyrics are so powerful!
I'm downloading it and running it through my studio software because something about it makes me want to hear it backwards. Enchanting and intriguing, pricking the brain.
Little to add to the song itself. Plausible influences are Ella Fizgerald's 'Stone Cold Dead in the Market' (which I like), and Paul Mc Cartney's 'Hope of Deliverance' (which I don't)...
Reminds me of some Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd -- back when the were The Pink Floyd and released not LPs but rather 45s like See Emily Play. Very groovy, cool, far out sounds. Thanks for reflecting this juicy era of music!
She wakes across the ocean, and sighs when she discovers...the man who's sleeping with her looks like her last two lovers. No one wants to be a banana head.
Another number that reminds me of The Outsiders and The Youngbloods and other bands and songs of the Psychedelic '60s and the reign of the hippies over the music industry in that era. Solid GOLD, man!
Only the 2nd time in my 54 years on the planet that I've heard a song sung from the perspective of one who died in a car crash, so while I can't say it hasn't been done before, it's still rather rare. What I can say is that this one is by far the superior of the two. Great job -- lyrically, vocally, and musically!
I’m on AloneTone as Gene Eric Mann (generic man), Justin Otter Guy (just another guy), Merry Bear, and Nightmoth. I really appreciate that you listened to ALL my Nightmoth recordings – those old children songs are particular horrid numbers, recorded before I knew much about what I was doing. Anyway, I’m here to return as much of the time and ear you lent to me as I can and play your 13 gems.
I already dig “Breakfast” and “Boyfriend” so I’m sure I’ll get a kick from the rest. Your style turns me on and tickles my fancy. Thanks for the listen and always, always, ROCK ON!
Comments on Gene Eric Mann's stuff
Thanks for always being so wonderful Gene! May you smile on us and enjoy the music of the Gods!
Goodbye, Gene. Thanks for all the listens and constructive comments.
Working my way back on your music catalog. this is fantastic. trippy washed guitars and the lyrics are spot on.
Nice twist on the Beatles classic... very interesting. I like it!
Clever! I think a lot of work went into this one. Thanks for your comment on my song. Paul
I woke up thinking about this song. I had to come and take another listen. It's the only *WASHING MACHINE* song I know of.
Outputy! loving this..
Just discovered this one in the mix.... wow!!!! What a beautiful song and amazing arrangement.

Strange...in a good way. Some mid PF studio output work right there.
You Rock my dear friend!!♥
Lovin it!

Hey Gene, love the sound and the songs ,ya did a great job, hope you got our private message, we're new at this ,, Jack & Cindy
I'm totally digging this! It reminds me of old Barrett-era Pink Floyd.
Yup... I'm a sucker for Eastern influence :)
Amazing lyrics!!!!
I love this track, it gets better every time I hear it......

I dig your handle of the keys and your vocal delivery – ROCK ON!
Someone ought to do something with this -- it's good stuff!
Reminds me of a few early John and Paul collaborations -- a bit of psychedelic seasoning, an intriguing flow, a bridge that's like a whole other song. Brilliant! Great job!
Good stuff -- I dig your style, composition-wise and performance-wise.
Enjoyed it!
"Just like a monkey up in the tree Throwing your feces straight at me" -- definitely my favorite lines in this number! Such a beautiful song, so gorgeous, and the lyrics are so powerful!
Playing it again. This is one for the headphones! Love that lead guitar moving from ear to ear -- good fun!
I found this to be delightfully entertaining in either directions, but it really was particularly pleasant and delicious in reverse.
I'm downloading it and running it through my studio software because something about it makes me want to hear it backwards. Enchanting and intriguing, pricking the brain.
I hear the Paul influence, but not so much the song you mentioned as "Black Bird Fly," which I like! ;)
I dig how y'all blended, mixed down and mastered the vocal tracks -- fabulous job!
A wee bit of Hawaiian spice sprinkled upon this one -- tasty. Y'all blend superbly, vocally. Loving that Youngbloods-like guitar effect. Beautiful!
Y'all did an amazing, fabulous, exceptional job with this number. Excellent! ROCK ON!

Dig that guitar! Nice effect, sweet picking. Groovy, colorful sounds all around.
Another number that reminds me of The Outsiders and The Youngbloods and other bands and songs of the Psychedelic '60s and the reign of the hippies over the music industry in that era. Solid GOLD, man!
Things that go together: lava lamp, tie-dyed shirt, incense smoke, headphones, and music by The Proods!
The folks under 40 between 1964 and 1970 would have ate this song up! A brilliant composition and a delicious production!
