Musical Interlude: A few years ago, I happened on Elise LeGrow's album of R&B classics and really enjoyed it. A Canadian singer, she doesn't get much notice here in the States, which is a shame. She's got a great voice and delivers her songs with conviction.

"Sincerely," performed by Elise LeGrow.

TimelessRage, to SymphonicMetal German

Looks like we joined just in time to share some #timelessrage on #JukeboxFridayNight

Timeless Rage - Ocean Twilight (2023) feat. Nicolaj Ruhnow (ex Tokyo Blade, Domain)

The track is a rather slow building #SymphonicPowerMetal #ballad full of contrast and atmosphere. Expect a mixture of catchy, raw #PowerMetal and detailed, expressive #SymphonicMetal with male vocals and a tendency towards rather rough, dark and mystic sounds.

It's bitterly cold today, so 17th Century broadside ballad describing how to Drive the Cold Winter Away seems appropriate...

Richard Mackenzie: lute

The organ here screams (warbles?) Bo to me. Like Toussaint’s opening line in Sweet Touch of Love, or Longhair’s missing keys, it’s the sort of thing I could pick out of a dozen instruments. Great ballad

Here, I portray your self-image
as a victim
of life's apparent absurdities,
but soon realize
that it's my own divided perception
of myself
I've set out to seek to immortalize
in a shadow world
full of indistinguishable similarities.

"All hail, thou mighty Queen of Heaven!
For thy peer on Earth I never did see."

"Oh no, oh no, Thomas," she said,
"That name does not belong to me;
I am but the queen of fair Elfland,
That am hither come to visit thee."

"The Queen of Fairies she caught me,
In yon green hill to dwell.
And pleasant is the fairy land,
But, an eerie tale to tell,
Aye, at the end of seven years,
We pay a tithe to Hell.
I am so fair and full of flesh,
I'm feared it be mysel'."

#Music #bandcamp

tried to make a #50s style #Ballad like early #Rocknroll #doowop or #rockabilly though got really weird with the production. I think i will record an acoustic version live tomorrow to see which I prefer but I really enjoy it right now the #Industrial and #Noise elements.

it's called Dirty Pictures from the Prom.

Thought I would share a home recording of a few old band mates, re-recording an original song we played many years back but never got a good tape of it. It's sort of a Western Rock style ballad and I have to admit I'm really pleased with the results.
