Movement, but not to the album.

This song also didn't make it to the "Sight Or Sound" Album. This one is called "Movement". A friend suggested that I put together a tune that was about the world and the environment. I thought over it for a while, and then came up with the idea of a global situation from the perspective of an animal. We sometimes use the movements of animals to help us to detect things, because they just seem to know.

Here is the result of my efforts.

This one didn't make the album because I thought there were many others that were better in composition and arrangement. I mentioned previously that there are 10 songs that feature on my album, that are available to listen to in full on Youtube. There are many, many positive words from many people, and some of these comments have now been added to the CDBaby page. You can read the comments selection at:

Jeff Edwards - Sight Or Sound

My Dad. Part 6.

Lulu wasn't exclusively in my father's bad books. Someone else was P.J.Proby. I was told that my father decked him for making advances to one of his girlfriends. Tsk tsk. I bet that sort of thing happened regularly. It could also be that my Dad was opposed to his pretentiousness. I was told by Dad that P.J. used to perform on stage wearing drainpipe trousers, and in an effort to impress the ladies, he used to put a section of hosepipe inside his trousers to make the girls think he was gifted in the groin. Oh what disappointment there must have been if he managed to attract anybody as a result of his efforts. That old saying "The truth will out" is probably the most fitting term to use.

My dad also liked to do a bit of DIY. There was a time when his sister asked him to paint her bedroom. Not for free though. Everything seemed to work out well. After completion she had a quick look at the room and was happy with the results. That pleasure didn't last for long though. A few days after the room had been painted, she thought she'd shift the furniture around. That's when she found out that all my father had done was painted around everything. There were large unpainted areas behind all objects that were against a wall. I'm sure she must have had some choice words for him afterwards. He never told me those.

To be continued.......
