That looks more like an oversized toilet than the front end of a boat that Haley is performing on. I saw the Captain & Tennille in concert in Daytona Beach Florida after graduating from college in 1975. A college buddy & I celebrated graduation with a road trip there and we stayed with 4 friends of his brother's girlfriend all in one large hotel room. Those were the days my friends, we thought they'd never end, we'd sing & dance, forever and a day...

Let's try that again -- Those first one was so far off. So I found much of this on IDF by nowitsfound


I was feeling hungry
When you caught my eye
I was feeling weak when you came on by
I couldn’t hear nothing
But your fast beating heart
Can’t help myself when I want something

--?--
Take me for the prisoner I am
And I pray you survive
Take me to a foreign land
Then just leave me there to die

I was flying high
See ya down below
I was flying by
See you moving slow, yeah

--?--
Won't you stop me before ---? again

Didn’t mean to cause no trouble
Didn’t mean to follow you home
Didn’t mean to watch you struggle
I just couldn’t let you go

Didn’t mean to cause no trouble
Didn’t mean to follow you home
Didn’t mean to watch you struggle
I just couldn’t let you go

Wow.. I really dig this !

I think that this duo could work financially as an opening act for many many types of bands because of qualities that a headliner wants in terms of preparing an audience for the "real" act on top of it being very high quality and musically interesting to many true musicians at heart I believe.

... but hey, I"m a "jam band" kind of guy,, and that's how I'd define this music. It's techno jam and in my book it has no connection to SMYM which is techno dance...techno is like an intrument and all music using guitars aren't the same genre (ok that was a why analogy)

Santana's connection to jazz was mentioned in another thread. I connected Haley to Santana in that mashup video I did....to me an electric guitar wail is the same as a trumpet rift... someone can wear tie-dies like the greatful dead, or suits and thin ties like Louis armstrong, cowboy shirts like the Alman Brothers , or too tight jeans and at ripped t shirt like Van Halen but the defining and unifying element to a jam band "genre" is a trance inducing poly-rhythm or deeply shuffled groove in which the musicians ad lib an interplay of theme and variation with a blues based chord structure.

Oops... I slipped.

I just got to laugh at people who'd even remotely call this a "sell out" (no one here feels that of course!). To me it is quite complicated with lots of subtle ironies but.. to other's it's "aimless" as its far from a linear trip with any conclusion or single point to it.

"jazz" is too complicated a term to define in a way that people agree on... I have mixed feelings about using the word... not all jazz jams imo and its like the jazz genre and the country genre of the alman brothers or grace potter isn't the defining thing but those two are connected to a grateful dead or carlos santana in ways other rockers or countryish artists aren't and in recent years is applying to some techno groups and even some(not all) hip hop sounds.

.. .my "jam band" clasification of it is subject to disagreement too.

evidently "jam band" just won't agree on any definition... some try to define it by culture, others by atttendance and propesity for people making live recordings ( groupies following a band around making tapes and putting them on the internet !) .... interesting discussion in this Wikipedia article

it's really long and people would probably get lost in the first 2/3ds with grateful dead references so I'll quote a bit of the bottom of it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jam_band

Quote:2004–present[edit]
After Coventry, many Phish fans found themselves in a predicament similar to that Deadheads faced almost a decade previously. With no more Phish to follow around, the hundreds of thousands of Phish fans began investing time in the other top jam band acts of the day. This gave newer bands such as STS9, Disco Biscuits, and Umphrey's McGee a greater opportunity to grow their fanbase. These bands have steadily increased their popularity, but so far, no jam band has reached Phish's attendance levels. It should be noted that Phish never reached the Grateful Dead's peak attendance levels, so the fragmentation of the jam band scene has been a long term trend. Phish announced on October 1, 2008 that they would return to the stage in March 2009 at Hampton Coliseum.
Widespread Panic became the top jam band (by attendance) after Phish broke up in 2004.[citation needed] Their southern jam style brings out large crowds to amphitheaters and large indoor venues. Bringing in Jimmy Herring in 2006, a virtuoso jam band veteran guitarist, added a fresh edge to their huge catalog of songs.
moe. has maintained a tightly-knit fanbase through this period. Their enduring popularity is supported by steady touring, including frequent festival appearances. String Cheese Incident has mixed bluegrass and electronic sounds to build a devoted fanbase as well. SCI has significantly reduced their touring schedule in recent years, giving each of their shows a special reunion vibe.

Many of today's jam bands have brought widely varied genres into the scene. A jam band festival may include bands with electronic, folk rock, blues rock, jazz fusion, psychedelic rock, southern rock, progressive rock, acid jazz, hip hop, hard rock, and bluegrass sounds. The electronic trend has been led by such bands as The Disco Biscuits, Business As Usual, Sound Tribe Sector 9 (STS9), Lotus, EOTO, The New Deal. Bands like moe., Umphrey's McGee, Assembly of Dust, The Heavy Pets and The Breakfast have carried on the classic rock sound mixed with exploratory jams. Members of The Grateful Dead have continued touring in many different configurations as The Dead, Bob Weir & Ratdog, Phil Lesh and Friends, 7 Walkers, and Furthur.
Jam scene[edit]
The contemporary jam scene has grown to encompass bands from a great diversity of musical genres. A 2000-era genre of jam-band music uses live improvisation that mimics the sounds of DJs and electronica musicians and has been dubbed "trancefusion" (a fusion between trance music and rock and roll). Progressive bluegrass and progressive rock are also quite popular among fans of jam bands.

After that it moves into an interesting discussion of copyright law and fan recordings etc.

I'll take a shot at that missing verse I think you've got the words pretty right start to finish .. good job.


"Thats where I sweep in,

Won't you stop me before ?we (?Tell this?) again ?


My interpretation is that it's literal meaning is about a girl or guy making a pass at someone while they happened to encouter someone and flirting.... but knowing at they flirted that the other was involved with someone else (not like married necessarily, more like confusing someone on the fence with someone else?)

In the more literal take I'd make the "take me prisioner" is more like "I should be punished for this" (which is sort of a suggestive sort of way of putting that) with a bit of hyperbole "I really belong on a desert island for this ... you should take me there" haha

--- metaphorically I feel its like a yearning to be mischevious and tasting the pungently flavorful complications of mood doing something slightly out of what is the straight and narrow creates.....tasting what you want then tasting and willingly navigating the aftermath? ? lol ok I like this sort of poetry...
... I don't really form those ideas concretely in my mind.... I just feel a certain mild sort of indulgence to do what you want despite apologizing and willing to face some consequences.

(everyone can of course have it mean something else to them.. just the feel to me)

Hi im kind of a low key halien so i don't post that often but i just wanted to show everyone how i was checking the human experience website and i found an Instrumental with Haley's voice in it...

http://thehumanexperience.bandcamp.com/a...es-day-mix

the song with her starts around 11:00 minutes and it's track number 4 in the mix.

Nice find Maxit. I've come to think of Haley's David Block experience as a kind of a "what I did on my summer vacation" thing. But Haley's voice sweetly looping around would make a fine soundscape for any day.

This is one of those things that make me think of quantum physics and parallel dimensions, where one takes a right turn instead of a left....

(Scott Bradlee or David Block?)

There's a universe where Haley's hitch hiking w/ Block to their next festival

(not being facetious, if you follow David on Twitter, he's been known to ask his followers if they can give him a lift to his next gig...)

I was wondering what was going on with this. Although it's not really Haley's style, she was creating some cool music with this guy. I'd at least like a few of the tracks that they did.

I was feelin hungry
When you caught my eye
I was feelin weak when ya came on by
I couldn’t hear nothin
But your fast beatin heart
Can’t help myself when I want something
(something in her lower register)

Take me for the prisoner I am
As I pray you survive
Take me to a foreign land
Then just leave me there to die

I was flyin high
See ya down below
I was flyin by
See you movin slow yeah

that's when I swoop in
wont you stop me before the damage begins

Didn’t mean to cause no trouble
Didn’t mean to swallow you whole
Didn’t mean to watch you struggle
I just couldn’t let you go

Didn’t mean to watch you struggle
Didn’t mean to swallow you whole
Didn’t mean to cause no trouble
I just couldn’t let you go


oh I was just thinking baby
I failed you I failed you I failed you
(scats galore)

Didn’t mean to cause no trouble
Didn’t mean to swallow you whole
Didn’t mean to watch you struggle
I just couldn’t let you go

oh I didn't mean it
(more scats)

This was my take on the lyrics. I REALLY want a studio version of this song!

Nice job finishing and correcting the lyrics dswim. I had a hard time getting the lyrics of this song. Funny how some become obvious after seeing the words.

I listen to this song periodically and for me it's an earworm. The rest of the day I have Haley's vocals playing in my head (I find it has that haunting quality). David does a nice job with the music and incorporating Haley's vocals into his sound manipulations without distorting her tone. I really like the emphasis on this one of the honey side of Haley's voice.
