Things to include in the recording project
Plan C
Poems to include in spoken word/lounge CD:
Soldier
Tie the knot tighter
”Will you think…”
Sax solo
”I was restless…”
There’s some other old stuff that’s not on the web yet; I need to dig through some old files (some of which are ACTUAL files, not notional/digital constructions) to find them.
Music I wrote at least the lyrics for to include:
Melancholy Inventory, and maybe some other stuff from the operas
Dream
More PRO stuff, but probably in cabaret form: Letter from London, Elevator, Impostor, some other things
Other not-quite-poem-somewhat-story-like-things:
Ground state
Exodus
Another prose poem I wrote that starts “On one of the streets near where I live…”
Other music to put in there:
Kurt Weill songs: September song, Speak Low, My ship, Barbara Song, Lost in the Stars, How Much I love you*)
Other standards: Sugar in my bowl, What’s new, I’ve got it bad
Weirdo one-off novelty songs if needed (Rainbow Connection, anything by Fred Spek)
Now tell me: would you buy it?
*”Like a dachshund abhors revolving doors, that’s how much I love you.”

I think if you continue in your usual creative, flexible, musical mode you’ll put a fine package together. I will be a client/customer.. . that means I’ll buy what your selling. (Now that’s encouragement for an unknown product.)
Thanks, Jack. Just for you I’ll put a picture of my legs on the cover.;)
