In A Cage
wanted to do something in 7/8 and this came out. lyrics are kind of a "madness of the crowds" type idea... will be part of a larger concept album I have in the works.
a tortured artist... think: Justin Bieber or Kanye West and many, many others...
gabriele sabadi shared this fully formed instrumental piece with me and let me add some lyrics/vocals/choir
another track off "The Mask". uploaded for the triple meter station on clickers club... though it does flirt with 4/4 for ten or fifteen seconds once or twice.
Basically an instrumental with a few vocals. It is a section from a much longer concept album called 'Ilrod's Journey'
70's-ish rock ballad. an homage of sorts to my favorite band (City Boy).
Lead off track on "The Mask" CD. uploaded here for waltz challenge in the clickers club.
Cover of a City Boy song from the album Young Men Gone West. I love their version but this is a much different take on the song.
a work in progress, but I think it's getting pretty close. a tongue-in-cheek take on our sorry state of affairs in the US... and probably elsewhere as well.
traditional Christmas song done in a slightly different way...
Tried to shove as many genres in as I could (as is my wont)
ambient, reflective, moody piece. lyrics are kind of downer, but that was the mood I was in...
a little boogie woogie (just for the fun of it) tune. lyrically a tongue-in-cheek look at a guy in denial post-breakup.
Ralph Atkinson: Guitar and horn section, Matt Tyson: the other stuff, Quirky light-jazz tune. A long term relationship song, though the lyrics are a bit convoluted...
