Slave v4.0 – 2024, Jerry Aldini, Johnny Bravo Studios III

This is one of my oldest songs (1989, 35 years ago!!!), adapted with a few bands in college, each version posted in this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdsdjNidpqLmkB35v07PGYEOgN_7MIMeC (best listened to in that order)

For version #4, for those in-the-know, it’s the return of Pine Canyon’s own, Jerry Aldini.

Per usual, slap on the headphones, kids.
If you live in certain states, indulge first. Cough, cough.
That said, our soloist, Frankie, and I go WAY back.
(DPL nods)

Recorded at Johnny Bravo Studios III
Frankie (Wah-Flute and Tubular Bells from Hell) by a very dim AI
Mixed on Audacity, of course
OS: Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS on a Dell Latitude-E6420

Lyrics:

jen has got possession of my head
don’t know if i’m alive or if i’m dead
why do girls control me all the time?
always layin’ heavy on my mind

i am not your slave

new york city is a million scenes
each one seems to make your destiny
you’re all alone and no one seems to care
you’re dumb; i think that’s good, so fair is fair

i am not your slave

is that a nickel or is that a dime?
reality is just a frame of mind
see yourself for who you really are
activate your soul and you’ll go far

i am not your slave

Music: Guitar Improvisation, “Bb Blues / old chord progression (Jazz/Swing feel) 120 bpm : Backing Track”
