Description
This is a little side order of Federico Fellini surrealism, intellectually speaking that is. You get to do the mental imagery as I haven't a video to it, at least not yet. But there is a message of humanitarian mirth in this also. The style of presentation is in a Bruce Springsteen type genre with the format and production. Margot is the main vocal back up of the ladies on this. It was done some time ago, apparent with reference in the lyrics, but was never completed and it may still not be finished. So I'm doing an archival placement here with this, as it's that time. This was recorded on analog originally and moved over to GB for massaging and playing with. It's still rock and roll to me.

Lyrics

FREE BORN

Well now those pop star kids were loosing their lids
And the night was black as cole
When you opened your mouth you know nothing came out
Except the flash of aluminum foil
And the girls up stairs don't really care just what is your name
I'f you came from the zoo or were painted blue
You got the money you know you can play the game

Refrain;
Your a child of the sun the moon the stars and the sea
Your here in this life, a little part of its history
Your a child, free born, your living out your destiny
So do your best to help the rest and your spirit
will run wild and free

Now those roofers their goofers real April-fool spoofers
As they inhale vapors from the tar
Their fry'en in the heat and their dying to meet the girl
Who walked up the street and entered the bar
And the man with a scooper, he's watch'en TV Bloopers
And laugh'en along with Dick Clark
He filled in some dreams of impossible schemes
With a fantasy parade in the park

Refrain and Bridge;

So on and on and on you road, the great american dream
You sold your house and care and bought a
Harley Davison Machine
And the neighbors were really quite surprised
When you woke up from your last night
You had packed your rags and loaded your bags
And you road right out of sight

Refrain;

Ad-lib;
And the girls sing;
Wild and free, wild and free, that's you and me, ..... ad infinitum

Ooooz 'n' aaahs
Top notch. It sounds authentic right down to the patina of hiss! This feels like a missing piece off the Boss' early demos. Great voice, great licks. Backing vox are tops!

sweet
love the sound of this. makes me reminiscent of my childhood for some reason, and I like that. Probably the Springsteen in it. My dad used to play Born to Run all the time when I was growing up. Great song man.

Free Born
What I find interesting about this tune is that the analog recording really helps to solidify the genre - almost like it gives it authenticity. Well arranged, lots of interesting stuff going on, and high energy from start to finish. Very nice work!

VERY cool!
Yup...Vocally reminiscent of the boss. Musically, a blast from the past...late 60's/early 70's.

Some of the guitar work reminds me of the Illinois Speed Press' first album. (HAH! I'll bet no one remembers them!)

Perhaps your best post to date friend! Love it!

Be well!
