Pop/Rock, Psychedelic, Ambient, Rhythm & Blues and beyond.
Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something. I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

Lyrics
Time Is An Illusion (David A Briggs) c2021 ... The Lazarus Ladders. voice samples: "What Is time?" . . . "The secrets of the cosmos I suppose". "A deceptively simple question, yet it is the key to understanding relativity". Guitar into: Thankyou for for coming from the future, this world is spinning far too fast... Our lives are so very transcient, we know, that nothing's meant to last... This life is nothing but illusion, we can't be sure where ours lives will go... You have lived so many lives on many worlds, concentric rings on a redwood tree. we're growing up towards the sunlight, floating up to where our lives are free... The world is changing, there's a movement in the air... Guitar solo: with psychedelic backwards part... The world is changing, there's a movement in the air... Pink and blue, clouds of white foreverness, this world drifts in time and space... These are the secrets of the cosmos, this life is not a running race... sampled voices: "What is time?" "Here I was born" "Here I died" "It was only a moment for you" "You took no notice" "It was only a moment for you" "You took no notice" " Here I died" Guitar solo: Thankyou for coming from the future, this world is spinning far too fast... this life is nothing but illusion, we can't be sure where our lives will go... Pink and blue, clouds of white foreverness, this world it drifts in time and space... these are the secrets of the cosmos, this life is not a running race... the world is changing, there's a movement in the air... voice samples: "The secrets of the cosmos I suppose" "The distinction between the past, present and future, ... is but a stubborn illusion" ... female voice samples are of Kim Novak from the Alfred Hitchcock film/movie Vertigo

You really have made this psychedelic genre your own ! The feel vibe and guitar tone is so authentic of the period it really would have been a hit then ! Very impressive David ! And as Jesus said where do you get all the samples from and how do you even think of using them ! Mind boggling! Amazing creativity!
