<p>My '55 Chevrolet</p><p>DrC - All keys, synth horns, moog, drum programming, and mixing/production.<br />Gary Carciello - Guitars. </p><p>Rob Grant - Bass guitar.<br />Farrell Jackson - Songwriter and all vocals</p><p><span style="font-size: x-small;">This is a song I wrote about the feelings I get when I cruise in my 55 Chevrolet, it's pictured. It's an old style rock n' roll shuffle but updated by Rayon Vert with some different chord changes and instrumentation. With Gary's excellent guitar work, DrC's great keyboard playing and production skills, and Rob's cool bass line, it cruises down a road less traveled by old rock n' roll songs. I had a blast belting out the vocals for this song!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-small;">This is a bit different style compared to our other songs but we've tried to keep a little bit of that prog. rock vibe in to add some additional interest.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-small;">As always, we hope you enjoy it! </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-small;">Farrell for Rayon Vert</span></p>
<p>Music by Doctor C</p><p>Lyrics by Alfred Lord Tennyson</p><p> </p><p>Doctor C - keyboards, drum arrangements, and production.</p><p>Farrell Jackson - vocals</p><p>Gary Carciello - guitars</p><p>Rob Grant - bass </p><p>About the lyric/poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson:</p><p>He grieves the loss of his friend, Arthur Henry Hallam, a promising poet and essayist who had been engaged to Tennyson's sister, Emily. Hallam died of a stroke in 1833 when he was only 22. Nature, of course, does not stop to mourn the loss of anyone. That's the essence of the poem.</p><p>DrC presented this song idea with the chords and melody intact. True to his style, it's the blending of a classic poem with today's music in a neo traditional fashion. The combination became even more interesting as Gary's articulate guitar, Rob's driving bass, and Farrell's warbling voice were added to the mix. The result is a unique progressive rock song that harbors the flare of yesteryear, yet is still fresh and exciting. </p><p>We hope you enjoy this rockin' song from Rayon Vert!</p>
