Description
This is the 3rd track in the "Medicine Show " tracks. ( "Black Coat John" and "Going Down" tracks are on Davisamerica home page and feature Feter as well) The Medicine Show Tracks are our attempts to create a "live" setting with this amazing artist. The idea for the setting on this tune was born watching a "chat" conversation between Feter and Fran [Ziti] about the difficulties of recording. Feter was discussing the difficulty of recording in his present situation. He talked about dreaming of tunes in his head and sitting in a park. Somehow we all found him there and found a way to play along. So...my brother ... can we walk a bit with you?

Feter McBlues..... Vocals and guitar

The "3 D's"
Damiengh .... Flute and Cabasa
Davisamerica2..... Backing Vocals
Davisamerica..... Bass, Keys,Additional Percussion and Accordion

Lyrics
O Babe
(Feter Mc Blues)

well it's hard it seems
when ever it goes
but the heart at ease
to be inside
babe the home
the love and the life
call us to be
and have to be there
I don't want
drizzeling rain
catch us inside
where we cannot move
our way is open doors
spirit is free
lead us all
o babe how i want you
I like the way
how we did it
when we fly to the river
and doing it all
it seems to be
the way always
get the hard tide
to get it yours
love we need
to be together
ask the rose
the moon and each little kiss
our way
is open doors
spirit of free
lead us all
o babe
how i want you

You and Me

a spiritual level with his flute work ...and here

kevmikwa said 118 days ago (July 29th, 2009)
Lots to like
I do like the guitar tone here, the clear vocal recording and placement. I like the rich instrumentation (what sounds like a real flute, percussion, fretless, accordion, glockenspiel) and the ambient noises at the beginning and the end really define the journey intended in your description.

Still - a couple of minor sync issues crashed the party for me a little (0:35, 1:27). As a drummer, I'm sure I'm over-the-top about that kind of stuff. So definitely take that comment with the appropriate grain of salt.

Great song, well-written.

Om my 5th play...
and I want a copy! No dl button... This is a sweet collab, guys. It has a celtic flavor to me, which I like very much. Feter's vocals are emotion filled, and Terry's harmony is perfect. Damien's flute sounds so sweet. All this came about from a chat? MacJammers are the best!

Has
sort of feeling that I cannot put my finger on....but I like it, it sort of has an ethnic early quality which transposes to an almost Parissienne Blvd feel before the bus and traffic sound make it totally,but wonderfully surreal.....very good guys ...two thumbs up and an okeydokey.

Oh Yes!
This is just superb, I really love this and a really great vocal from Feter.
I love the flute it's just wonderful and this also reminds me of Jethro Tull, great laid back feel with some wonderful harmonies from Terry, he is a great singer and one of my favs.
A fine performance from everyone, great instrumentation and the icing on the cake for me was the accordian playing in the background, really excellent Jack!

Love the outro and on my 4th 5th play etc :-) DL

so nice to see your caravan roll into my neighborhood
"medicine show" tracks..I'm loving it..you did a great job capturing a "live" feel it's done very creatively. kudos for the sound effects great job! that's something i'd like to experiment with. Feter is great as always. he's as close (lyrically and vocally) to genuine sunlight and warmth as you'll ever find, and you compliment him well vocally davis. i love the backing vocal part. all of the instrumentations really gelled together and somehow all stand out it an amazing way, that's something you just don't hear everyday...i think the spontaneousness illusion of it being a live track really helped that. damien, davis, and feter great job!! you'd all make great snake-oil salesmen and i will buy whatever brew, compound, or concoction your pedaling!!!!! ha,ha!!
