Song information
My younger brother Tommy played drums professionally for roughly 25 years.
He also dabbles on the keyboards.

We never had the opportunity to work together till he sent me some files a few years back.
From them I was able to create two songs.

The first, SIBLING REVELRY, featured Tommy playing LIVE drums, with me on vox, guitar, and bass.
I posted it here back in mid-October of 2024.

This somewhat psychedelic progressive rocker STARLIGHT is the other piece.
For this one Tommy sent me some percussion and keyboard tracks.

Tommy won't be playing LIVE drums again. A couple months back He had his right leg amputated.
He's doing OK, but prayers for his full healing, and for his mental/emotional state,
are always appreciated.

Please note that all the drums are pounded out on the keys. They are not live this time.

I slightly edited his synth and percussion tracks, and added vox, guitar, bass, and spacey effects.

This is the end result I'm afraid! Lol...

Thanks for listening friends!

Lyrics
STARLIGHT

I
When the Sun goes down, and the darkness falls;
an ethereal hush washes over all.
It is then the Lord of the empyrean
---on cosmic canvas He displays His artistry.

My friends have you seen the starlight?
Have you really SEEN the starlight?

Can you grasp the meaning in the starlight?

II
What a masterpiece! What a grand design!
It evokes in me a sense of the Divine.
And the power and wisdom that through it does shine,
holds a meaning clear before an open mind.

My friends have you seen the starlight?
Have you really SEEN the starlight?

Will you grasp the meaning of the starlight?

SEE!!!

Thanks Don. Tom's doing surprisingly well. My sister Cathy is with him four days a week to help him as he adjusts. She's a saint!
Glad you enjoyed the tune...

Sorry to hear about your brother's health challenges - it seems he is still more than capable of laying down some excellent drums, even if they are via keys. Love your psychelic playing and lyrics as well

Sorry to hear of your brother's unfortunate experience. I worked with someone who was an amputee for many years, but that experience was not a positive one. I'm hoping your brother can move forward in life with a greater sense of purpose and hope than the person I knew. All the best to him.
And the song... I liked it! :)
