Walkin' The Plank (Farrell Jackson and Gary Carciello)
Walkin' The Plank
Life seems to be moving At a furious pace One day ends As another begins Bringing more tasks Than the day before
Ahhhhh....ahhhhh Ahhhhh....ahhhhh
Coming in the window Out the front door Running on legs That are growing sore A pace that's killing My tired back Into the grittle Where the meat is stacked Higher and higher Counting the cracks
No mistake.. I'm walkin the plank...ahhhh It doesn't reach, the other bank...ahhhh Hands tied, a blind fold......ahhhh No treasures to hold......ahhhh
Ahhhhh....ahhhhh Ahhhhh....ahhhhh
I used to long For the good days When wisdom brings Happiness and fortune Now that it's here I'm not sure what to do It seems like rubbish Dumped in the slew Put in the hands Of the Garbage man
Make no mistake Walkin the plank It doesn't reach the other bank Hands tied, a blind fold No treasures to hold oo oo oo

Great guitar tone and excellent 'close' production and yes, a touch of Robert Plant here. All good ... and it sounds great in the car.
Thanks for the good comments Phillip!

Janeway: always a fan of Gary Carciello and Farrel Jackson. This track is fun to hear , knowing that you guys were lookin to catch a Zeplin kind of style. Great job on the Vocals ! i reckon you succeed well in reaching for vocal nuances that recall the world renowned Robert Plant. In a lot of places you brilliantly duplicate the very sound and timbre, and adlib vocals of Plant. It sounds really like him. In your notes we see that this was your intent , and so , right bros. Because the guitar chord style and phrasing from Carciello sets the Zeplin stage .
Thanks Shane! We were going for that Led Zep for sure. Just to get close and to be recognized by you is a huge compliment. Gary and I both thank you kindly!

We, Farrell and Gary, both thank you kindly Eric! Gary has heard me sing hints of Robert Plant's singing style in some of the Rayon Vert tunes we've done as a group. He sent this over with a request to catch that vibe again. I gave it my best shot. Thanks again Eric!

Farrell and Gary, two true talents. Farrell, I don't think I have ever known a more diverse musician than you. You truly amaze me with your talent. I bow to your greatness, my brother. It sure is a pleasure and an honor to know you.

The music is killer and the lyrics sufficiently calling to mind a place, time and feeling for each listener. You haven't lost your smooth but edgy voice, either.

Just some new and old songs that I've written over the years and to date plus some collaborated songs as well.

I've had fun with this music stuff most of my life and still do. I gigged in a band for 35 years but now I'm just a home studio hack. Made a few bucks from gigging but I guess the real pay out is the numerous stories and memories from the road.
For a while I ran a small project studio at my place for soloists, duos, and the occasional full band. I gained a lot of recording experience doing that. It was definitely an experience. These days it's just me having fun in the studio. I try this and that with songwriting and recording. Once in a while it works. If I come up with something decent which I think sounds ok, I'll post it up.
I like acoustic guitars intermingled with electrics supported with melodic vocals and backed by harmonies. Music has been an enjoyable part of my life. It has allowed some satisfying and personal expressions to come forward. I'm grateful for those moments. Thanks for visiting and if you have the time, hit the play button to hear some my musings.

Thought that I had already commented on this one Farrell. Love the whole Zep feel, vibe and sound of this song brother. Good stuff.
Thanks Rusty, my classic rock bro!
