Chris Cornell was the greatest rock and roll vocalist since the genre was discovered.

And a pretty good lyricist.

Take note of his passing.

Poor guy. Meds can drive people to despair. Powerful prescribed drugs, very dangerous.

Yes. The medical industry is very corrupt. I think more people must have committed suicide because of so-called 'anti-depressants' than practically any other single factor. I don't understand why people are so keen to take them.
Love all those 'grunge' bands from the 80s and 90s.

Is it the medication or the system that kills you? You are depressed because the system is immoral and you can't find a place in it keeping your dignity intact - so here's medication that will kill you faster - remove the problem and agitator - bringing in the NWO. Where is the next line of defence - how crazy that music can capsulate a feeling in you that can not be equalled by the life you lead

Here's the most recent home recordings with my music partner. Instrumentals again. I am not much keen on making music with lyrics or a message, nor to sing in keening tones about something relating to reproduction.

I love instrumental music for its innocence and lack of presumption. Instrumentals generally don't try to impart a message, tell you how you should live or say what is right and wrong - it's just pleasing sonic patterns in the air that can impart energy and create moods which hopefully can build into a brief musical journey for listeners.

If you enjoy funky music with a twist, then this may appeal: https://soundcloud.com/in-the-house-5/i ... ve-all-day. There's also a simplified "pop" version, complete with compression and added machine :) https://soundcloud.com/in-the-house-5/i ... -dance-mix

Cool. Night ride in a plush auto on a smooth highway. City lights just a glow, then the sky, then everywhere. But, the things now seeable are all moving past the other way while still moving fast on the modern beltway, and the seeable things past the guardrails moving backwards in time to where we just were are rolling back slower than the rhythms going forward but not so slow as the farthest things seen. Good to take an exit and get down on the surface roads where the objects move slow and life happens fast.

Cold winter morning on the prairie. Transistor radio. Small tinny speaker. Chickens to feed. Frost on the coal, a bucket for the fireplace and a bit for the little wood stove in the stone outbuilding. Nothing in the outhouse way out back, that’s no place to linger. A splash of coal oil starts the fire, unleashes a bit of sun inside the main house, inside the tiny work-room. Break the skim of ice off the water barrel and put two buckets on the back burners. Then the chicken-feed. Then gather the eggs for breakfast.

The voice is the first instrument.

Hank Williams never reached 30. Can't hear it in his voice. Doesn't sound like one of today's youths.

Yes. Men in their twenties back then looked about fifty. Is it the hats or the haircuts?
