what a wonderful mix of story telling and music,,,,are/were you a lit major??? ,,you have an amazing gift of word... you have a new fan,, recommend this to all( don't worry about the length ))!!!
This one is more of a reading set to music of part of a piece i wrote about a place i used to live. We used to walk most days down into the valley and i long to be back there, hopefully one day i will ...
There are a few fluffs in the reading…
angel delight
as soon as i awoke i ran downstairs to my laboratory
to see what my strange attractor had brought me
at first it had been disappointing: a few wisps of smoke
some sea-shells and butterfly wings
but this time i found something…
[recorded in glorious 4-trak at lotek studios in the '90s]
straining to maintain
straining to maintain a sense of dense intensity
vainly feigning pain of a spurious immensity
a furious refrain of precarious opacity
nefarious pretence…
You'll be back in the shed tomorrow with all this bloody rain..but at least we'll get another FDR special from it so let it rain says I.....oh and ....did it impress the new girl?
I decided to challenge myself by requesting some beats from a beat producer, Ant 'Brave Toaster' Hughes. One of the beats was named Popcorn Chicken.

Don't Be Frightened

I heard a rumour in…
I'm not playing your paper game
Not spilling my pain on a page again
Focus on the good times
Only the good times
Make way for the better times
You can't taint my name again
No hurry to blame when it goes your way
It's time for the pay-back…
After lots of chirpy, upbeat stuff coming from me and Jip, here's some misery - oh yes, and some rapping - oh! and a little bit of swearing! Well, there wasn't much else I could do with it.
Enjoy, as much as you can, and I'll get back to…
Sleazy good....that's some dark whole of bar this ones playing in.....loving the solo.....70's heaven.....it must be Huggie's bar!!....then I listened to the lyrics and realised you were sitting. On the settee scratching your balls ...it took the magic away a little but then came the second solo...so I decided to ignore the image carry on listening and stop shaving........
