My appointment for my next Red Cross donation (pint # 57, just a bit over 7 gallons) is coming up Thursday.I generally listen to calm acoustic stuff (like the new rootsy stuff I write, and stuff from some great piano players...).But let's do something different! Make a suggestion...Only requirement, I need my blood pressure to be low, not amped-up.
Richard Wright was a true musician - one who truly influenced me musically and as a musician. Although I never had the pleasure of meeting Richard (or any of his mates), he has been a big part of the sounds I've enjoyed over the years.I've been lucky enough to see Richard play live (with Pink Floyd) in the late eighties here in Raleigh. Both concerts were a fulfilling, engaging, and tearful exp...

On top of being a regular Bear and a Halloween child, I attempted to enter a music contest for indie911. I wrote, composed, practiced, and recorded this tune.Only problem was, my entry didn't qualify because I didn't pay the "upgrade charge" of a few hundred a year - so it wasn't considered. x-~You can listen to it here for FREE! (And if you want the mp3 to download, I'll send you a link. Just...
You know, singers get lots of good props.Guitar players get lots of press.Even some drummers (on occasion) get a little respect.But, have you hugged a bass player today?Essential to almost any music, always there to keep the beat, set the key, keep you moving forward...The next time you have a conversation with a friend, mention your favorite bass player...
Recently felt quite moody. Importantly, I needed to express some calm but thoughtful sounds from my heart. This is an album candidate, but is in pre-release form:Piano, strings, analog guitar and bass, my soul: mix them all together and you get Moonlight.You can download it here, if you wish:http://jimmybearpearson.com/moosic/Moonlight.mp3
Happy Halloween season everyone!As a true and official Halloween-born child, I thought I'd dredge up a couple of fun tunes on the subject at hand...And now, for the giggling part:This is a true story.The hospital was so busy when I was born - the administrators had to close down a wing of the "psycho ward" and open it to maternity patients.Right after a hurricane in mid-Florida, I was born in t...

Hello everyone!I didn't stray too far from MOG... just had to work (day job) pretty hard the last couple of years... Lots of family things going on (two teenagers).I've prepared the first of three-in-a-series albums called The Blue Sun Project. The first release is about the primary muse Calliope. The album is an instrumental mixture of progressive rock and blues.The Blue Sun Project - Calliope...
So, there have been wooden tales in instrumentals, hard rockin' plank spankin, and a little electronic rock hybrid... What's left? Lots...I'm a fortunate Bear. I have a fair life, and a good family. Music truly is wonderful and is a big part of my life. Sometimes, when one is having a good (but thoughtful) day, one has the need to express...I'm pretty lucky These Days Of My Life.
Sometimes, relationships hand you a warm embrace - just when you need it. You can let your soul free and your guard down.Love without bordersLove without conditionsLove without angst.Sometimes, you find someone who completes you... who takes the self and makes it the shared soul. Free to be oneself and true to oneself, but free to fall - there's someone there to catch you.Care, simplicity, warm...
Installed URGE the other day to see what it was like.I already had some of my tunes on my hard drive before the installation.I then let them be "managed" by URGE.I did a "get properties" within URGE on one of my tunes (really, MY tunes - although it may have been indicating the file on the URGE server (I hope)).The following screens say it all.The irony is that I am the artist - I still own all...
Good weekend everyone!It has been a blast reading posts and seeing so much music and life through the eyes of fellow MOGgers.I just wanted to share some more. The second in the series - In My Jammies. This piece isn't the calm and warm loving piece like the last one. This one is fun, free-spirited, colorful, and is an absolute JAM. You can play it here on MOG, and if you'd like to download it f...
