Here is a new Spirit Level song.
Lyrics and vocal are by Robert Cordrey.

This song was developed from my instrumental Swiftsure.

Guitar tracks were done by myself and Ray Cochrane. Ray Cochrane also did the bass track on this song.

Kudos to Ray for steering the arrangement to its current state. It is a much better version of the song since its first inception..


Palace of Memory

Lyrics:
Palace of Memory

pale day pale day wears away
the song leaves the singer
thought he had more to say

motes of dust our moments rust
to pictures pictures are mirrors
you can`t trust

the way back way back a rutted track
the house where old ghosts whisper
apologies behind your back

rewrite the verse zoom in reverse
your pictures pictures are strangers
who bless and curse

reverie show the making of me
a beggar in the palace of memory

at last gone at last your wrinkled mask
in a field the child lies dreaming
a god wakes with no past

mysteries in time decieve
your pictures pictures are speaking
their meaning holds you fast

reverie show the making of me
a beggar in the palace of memory

© Robert Cordrey May 2021

Powerful lyrics.
Very unusual arrangement.
The vocal panning played with my mind.

Very cool, guys! Fabulous listen on the phones.

"the song leaves the singer

Yeah! Great line of many.

Lovely playing Scott, nice and melodic. Great vocal from Robert and solid bass work from Ray.

Overall just an excellent song, listened a couple of times.

Scott, Ray, Robert...

COOL song.

Good write - lyrics and melody. Good vocal.

Very cool guitars spread nicely across the soundscape. Very good mix. Good bass, too. (Drums are a bit "back" for my tastes). Excellent arrangement.

Great listen!

Scott, Ray & Robert,

This may be my favorite Spirit Level track...

An awesome arrangement, mix and outstanding guitar.

The beautiful and haunting vocal by Robert is mesmerizing - a real showstopper.

"motes of dust our moments rust

The vocal panning definitely evoked images of mirrors for us. Very effective.

Vocal, guitar and bass performances were excellent. Great guitar tone for the feel and all is nicely glued together with the bass.

Everybody was in the pocket for the psychedelic vibe. As we've said before ... sophisticated psychedelia.

You also picked an excellent supporting BiaB group and topped it all off with an open mix with a great soundstage. And nice work with the VST.

So when are we going to have a light show vid?

Well done y'all

Thanks Moto. When I first heard the vocal panning I took a step back and let it sink in. Was perfect for the vibe of the song. Thanks for checking it out. Glad you liked it.

Loved the way some verses jumped the previous verse, a very cool effect. Lot of great imagery. Good playing by all.

Hi Scott, Ray and Robbert,

As captain Moto said, an unusual arrangement. Very intriguing.
Robberts' vocals are (as always) very good, despite the fact that the singing is so complicated in this song
I had no idea what you were singing about, but it must be wonderful. It souned like that!

And I liked how the band played it all. At first I got confused by the rhythm of the drums compared with the singing, but that was just me.

So, a very nice song from a great Spirit Level (I wanted to write higher instead of great, but that could lead to misinterpretations...)

Thanks Dave We worked very hard on the arrangement and mix on this song. Lots of gigabytes passed back and forth until it got to a place where we really liked it.
Robert's developed some very cool lyrics for this song. Made especially harder from the fact he was using one of my melodies.
Glad you liked the song.

Thanks Floyd for checking out the song. The drums had been moved around quite a bit on this song during its development. Robert did such a cool vocal on this that we want it to be front and center. Ray added the cool pan left to center pan and right to center pan and I felt it really focused the attention on it. Really glad you liked the song..

Very cool! "Memory" is very well suited for that tune with such a vintage and melancholic vibe. I loved how you played over those changes. Great job!

Thanks Janice and Bud for the awesome comments. We have been spending lots of time experimenting with the different production techniques to enhance the song. These song change so much from the initial inception to the finished piece. Really glad you liked it.

Man, what a great collab group, Spirit Level. Always rising to the top. Weird that I've listened to this song about 5 times, but failed to comment on it here. Robert is always magical with the lyrics and vocal. Really cool and haunting melody. The guitars sing from the same page.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Thanks so much Hans for checking out the song. We are always trying to push the envelope on our songs. Now that we are older and wiser we can appreciate the you using great instead of higher. If this was back in the late 60's we would have taken higher in a different context. :-).. Glad you liked the song.

Definitely more a song more to be "experienced" than "listened to".

I'm with floyd jane on the term "soundscape" - cool stuff!

Hi Scott,

I'm late to the party but glad I came, although everything I wanted to say already has been said. Great vocal and lyrics. The lyrics sound like something Leonard Cohen would write. Outstanding guitar and mix.

loved it and IMHO it is your best to date.

Really fine lyric...likely my favorite from Robert. Sweet chord-tone based melody that flowed with the changes. The arrangement is very good with the moves through the more and less dynamic passages. The guitars are dream and fit the song very well. All in all, an inspired work that has the added benefit of sounding great.

SL team,
Beautiful and trippy ballad you cooked! Lyrics are very special. Everybody sounds as whole. Two spins, could not find anything critical to add but congrats. This definitely stands out from most SL songs. If you will compile an album, this would be a perfect "rest" tune. Liked it. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Wonderful tune. I love the swirling sound. All players hit the mark, including the band. Vocals are correctly mysterious.

Too many gold star lyrics to mention, but one example is:

a beggar in the palace of memory

Excellent.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
