Another tune to lighten the load...

Hi All,

Thanks to everyone who has come on board so far as members here, and to those of you who downloaded the wix 'Spaces' app onto your mobile so that I can assign you a badge recognising the collaborative achievements so far. For those occasional visitors, welcome. Thank you for your comments, encouragement and support. It is genuinely appreciated.

One of the main reasons for starting this website was to enable a more refined forum for future collaborative projects like the film and music album we produced just prior to the pandemic. The feedback, recognition and enthusiasm for these was so incredible that it feels a natural progression to try and harness our collective energies via a dedicated website, rather than through conventional social media outlets, though of course they will continue to have a role to play in canvassing wider support once the next project starts rolling.

Please feel free to leave any comments regarding ideas for the next project if you feel it's something we've yet to entertain that could add a further dimension or gratification for all involved.

In the meantime, here's another song in progress. For those who already know how eclectic my musical influences and tastes are, you may not be too surprised at the departure into another completely different popular music area...hope you enjoy it. It's still just a demo but you'll get the idea.

Love and light,

Mark

Funk Transfusion

What can you do with the worn-out mind

when the beat starts rockin’ won’t be pacified,

jump to the beat start to move in time,

yeah, the funked-up rhythm will be justified. It’s alright, alright funky feelin’ on my mind tonight It’s alright, alright funk transfusion fills my soul tonight My head starts shakin’, feet are primed, my soul's escapin’ from the daily grind rockin’ and boppin’ now in double time that express train's rollin’ down the railroad line It’s alright, alright funky feelin’ on my mind tonight It’s alright, alright funk transfusion fills my soul tonight Work all day just to pay for bread get home late, wife and kids in bed but Friday night is when I shake it out because the funk transfusion's what it’s all about When this old world starts gettin’ me down

I park all my troubles and I drive uptown

dance to the music, make my life complete,

from my head right down into my achin’ feet It’s alright, alright funky feelin’ on my mind tonight It’s alright, alright funk transfusion fills my soul tonight
