Good day and thank you for all the nice replies all you nice Mellotronial
people out here!
But as Captain Tenneal(1) would say in his own inimitable style: You were
all...wrong.
I realized that chord pattern wasn't Debussey, Gary Busey, Buford T.
Pusser, Holst, Holsters, Holsopple, Howe, Dewey, Cheatem, Elton John,
Macca, or my co-worker Bob who had too much cabbage last night and can
actually squeeze out a Doric(2) scale (he is descended from the Romans, you
know).
"Leaving for the Black Sand" seems to employ similar chords to the chorus
in "Isn't Life Strange"---the "Wish I could pee in your eyes" part. No
bloody Elton lions, no Clapton "Tears in Heaven". Just pee. Unless Elton,
Eric, Justin/John, Lee, and I are all on the same wavelength somewhere...or
maybe this is just a popular run. OK, it's easy for Van Cluckburn to play
and was a good base for Lee to put down some decent melody lines that now
won't leave my head.
And you won't "hear Elton in Ken," Sir Fritz of New Domicile. I don't
swing that way. Still, there's nothing wrong with "rediscovering the
wheel," as you say, and everyone should have your album "The Feeling of
Far" (www.fritzdoddy.com - don't delay!) if they haven't yet discovered it
for the first time. Further, for a full stereophonic intercourse with Mary
and her little lamb, check out "As the Water Recedes..." on the "absolutely
essential Mellotron album" called "Improvised Waves" (www.kleonard.com -
only about 798 copies left---and someone in Finland is getting one of those
precious items in the post soon!). Recycling is good for the
environment. Just see what it did for Vanilla Ice...they found out he
recycled, and he was soon gone from our environment. Yay.
And Julia with chips in the veneer, Mr. Merbler? Not on Jerry's watch!!!
