Where did you go? Why wasn’t the music enough for you?

Like so many, to many musicians in the 50’s all lost in a  sea of heroin

adrift in dissonance, loaded and stoned by the denial of your own light Beauty Bashed and Broken life

banal and though somehow you survive inbetween the vinyl grooves and romantics like me

and now that I find your left over dreams,  I wonder just what does this that mean?

Are you just a note away from coming back and doing it right this time?

maybe I’m old fashioned, maybe you married an angel and ain’t coming back

But the moonlight over Vermont lights your way, the autumn leaves rustle, waiting in new sheet music then

just around daybreak I see you coming with the wind, you belong to me, my funny valentine.

There is that long ago and faraway feeling of you younger than springtime once again.

Through the clouds, over the rainbow , your soul, time after time, to finally be all that you are.

I’ll be waiting, when you come back with that silver lining.

Love,  your little girl blue

About the Writing of Wishing Wall

  I began realizing what was happening when I wrote Swedish Prince. In a mystical touchstone moment of encountering my Father’s Spirit in the song as it unfolded, I recognized that he was encouraging me to return to what I have always loved; writing songs. So here I went on this wonderful adventure of taking each brick in my wall and returning myself into the wish-fold of my bliss and the belief that some things lost, can be found again.

Tevers Tune, is from the album Wishing Wall.  This Jazz/Ambient Fusion with playful sounds are woven with threads of retro instrumentation, with just the right touch of ethereal voices.

   Ambient Jazz fusion with horns and eclectic percussion harmonized with world culture voices and rocking retro riffs; ideal for easy listening, meditative soul exploration and inspirational motivation.    I believe that we engage in the mystery of crossing paths and soulfully connecting circles of friends all enveloped in a spiral of ribbons in the sky, laced artfully through serendipitous music, prayers and wishes.

   Each circle is completely different from the other and netted in their own time. What is curious to me is the ongoing adventure of who I will have the honor of meeting next through the wishing wall.

Sojourns and Sweet Dreams- Laura

Tevers Tune

In celebration of our brothers 6oth birthday! I wrote a song for him on the new CD. He recently was pretty sick and was in the hospital for a couple of weeks so I am contributing all purchases of this song to him. To help out Steven Reinhardt,  just click the link and it will take you to the site. Steven loves vintage toys and quirky things, so the middle break in the song is all about this treasured part of his personality

Balancing on Light Beams

Balancing on Light Beams is from the Wishing Wall CD.

 Ambient Jazz Fusion with lyrical piano and soft ethereal dreamy vocals. It is a smooth ride of easy listening, meditative soul exploration that will take one away from it all into a peaceful place.
