lyrics
I like Guinness, I like stout,
Pour me a glass of wine and hear me shout,
Which wine? Any wine!
Cheers, smiles, mean saxophone about.
I like taverns, I like bars,
Show me a cosy pub and hear me bark,
Which pub? Any pub!
Jokes, laughter, a game of darts.
Bless us with friendship
Bringing heartsease,
Warmth and kindness,
The gift to please.
Bless us with affection
To steer life along,
Nature’s bounty
And a sweet rousing song.
I like bossa, I like swing,
Dance me a round again and hear me sing
Which dance? Any dance!
Jumping jive, rock ‘n rolling.
I like cherries, I like fries,
Give me a plate of food and hear me cry,
Which food? Any food!
Gravy, pepper, puddings and pies.
I like fireflies, I like bears,
Take me walk-about and hear me declare,
Which walk? Any walk!
Mountains, valleys, sea-spray on the air.
I like Dizzy, I like ’Trane
Play me some Ellington and hear me say
Which Ellington? Any Ellington!
Mingus, Monk, Getz and Carla Bley
I like wood stoves, I like snow,
Tuck me in a cabin and hear me explode
Which cabin? Any cabin
Pine logs, nightfall, a small screen movie show.
I like travel, I like risk,
Put me on a moving train and hear me dig
Which train? Any train!
The Sahara, Bootle, Mmbai and Minsk.
I like reading, I like words
Open me a storybook and hear me purr,
Which story ? Any story!
Comedy, tragedy, anything absurd.
I like amber, I like blonde,
Paint me a yellow room and hear me respond,
Which yellow? Any yellow!
Gold or canary, the sun shines on and on....
Bless us with desires, humour and grace,
Love, wisdom, and our own rightful place.
Bless us with music, bless us with song,
A world in harmony
And the music goes on and on and on.....
Unrecorded Beam is beautifully conceived, performed and recorded. I am fortunate indeed to have connection with the album, in two improvisations responding to Billie and the Multiple on their flight. Kate Westbrook
