a murder of crows
black is black and i’m back
someone picked the lock
memories push hard to be released
the drugs no longer give relief
i faced the knife on april 20th
the death card concurred
not today
it’s a wait n see
the crows are calling
drawing me into their blackness
the bed beckons
it’s such a fight again and again
i’ll pull the shades
of remembrance
and pray for silence

LISTEN TO SOMETHING FOR NOTHING ON SPOTIFY
A classic rock expert, PG Naylor has a knack for delivering hard hitting vocals with fun lyrics and sleek melodies woven together with both intricate harmonies and straight up grit.
Also of note from previous releases: “Fly”, “60’s Refugee” and “Law ‘Bidin Man”.
In keeping with the song’s theme of “Something for Nothing”, it’s important to mention PG and his group’s ongoing charity work with Bo Childrens Hospital in Sierra Leone.

my hands, my life
just a quick note to all my fellow bloggers. I have been limited, more so than in the past.
My RA ,etc. has gotten the better of me and I now have a torn rotator cuff on my right shoulder, tendonitis, etc. Too painful to type or text, or even use the mouse. This was after I had just recovered from surgery on my left hand for a dislocated extensor tendon and sagittal band rupture.
another piece gone. Sorry I havent responded . But hope you are all well and safe.
Elektragaaz to Release “The Synaesthetic Picture Show Now Playing Part 1”
Cabin Fever, so apropos living in our cabin here in the Catskill Mountains of New York ! check them out
Digital EP Available on AIS Records (City Hall/The Orchard) on Feb. 12
(New York, NY) — #Elektragaaz are a global live and virtual instrumental group featuring a mix of live and electronic music with most of the members based in the New York metropolitan area but headed by a mysterious and intensely private Frisian composer using the pseudonym of Poppo Redband but usually referred to as simply Redband. The group exists in both the real world and in a fictional universe, a volatile blend that can be bewitching or bewildering or both. The music too may leave listeners both bewildered and bewitched, drawing on such far flung influences as classical music, hip hop, rock, club, techno, pop, dance, film noir, comic books and video games– all precipitated by Redband’s neurological condition which causes him to see music as well as hear it.
As an introduction to the world of Elektragaaz…
