Tunisian Dreams

[Farrell Jackson]

Here's something a bit different from Lorne and I..called Tunisian Dreams. Lorne did guitars, drums and bass. Farrell did all the vocals, lyric and guitar slide solo.

Tunisian Dreams
I look towards the endless sky, and believe all will be fine
I stare at the distant horizon, Tunisian dreams fill my mind
All alone, all alone...trapped in limbo, All alone, all alone...simply simple

I don't know what tomorrow will bring, It's on the future path for me
Enlightenment and guidance, Shows the way to tranquility
Tunisian Dreams

The fading image of a mirage, releases clutter and clogs
The sun will set...the sun will rise, like it has for a billion eyes
All alone, all alone...trapped in limbo, All alone, all alone...simply simple

The sea breeze cools my face, Sahara sweat runs down my back
A million grains of sand, Cover ancient Roman lands
Tunisian Dreams fill the sky, Tunisian Dreams will never die
Tunisian Dreams will survive, Tunisian Dreams in my mind's eye

Whamtastic!

I love this kind dizzying guitarwork.

Makes me wonder what your actual relationship to Tunisia is?

Thanks Ted! No real relationship to Tunisia. I did one of those DNA test and it showed I had a trace of North Africa in me. So I read a bit of history on the area and it inspired these lyric.

Epic stuff Farrell, with intriguing chord movements and impressive playing throughout.  Love it.

About 25 years ago the wife and I had a holiday in Tunisia.  The museum in Tunis was incredible.  The ruins of Carthage were a bit less impressive as the Romans made a very good attempt at total destruction.

Impressive proggy madness, big respect in the production, way beyond my capabilities, great listen!!!

[Redler]

Really different on positive way! Nice mix of proggy and bit African music. On the 2nd listening....

Cool! A lot of things happening, I'm glad i switched over to real speakers.

Very nice brother for some reason I get a Kurt Cobain vibe from the piece, loving the guitar work

Awesome job guys. This is great. What I love is when the heavy guitars kick in and hit you between the eyes. I can't imagine the work/skill combo that went into this. I do love a bit of prog!

Some proggy goodness here, a little Adrian Belew to my ears. I dig me some some pop-prog.
Rock on!
