Please comment; it's fun to know who stopped by! 😁
It'd be cool if you could listen to the entire 3 minutes 🤣

Obviously my life is total bliss, so this song is about some other poor slob

If you're interested, I played some instruments I don't usually play:
Super cool 1980 Rickenbacker 4001 bass
cool 1992 Gibson SG custom
1930s C melody saxophone

Better Man Blues lyrics:
Our culture, it’s de-evolving
Our species, returning to primordial goo
A world of calamity and pain
A macrocosmic chorus of blues
But what troubles my soul as all collapses round me
I wish I’d been a better man for you

I look pretty good on paper
Got letters to prove my value
Versed in all the classic litatures
One might expect an insight or two
But my benefaction is a bubble off plumb
And I wish I’d been a better man for you

I fancied myself an adventurer
Pedigree of rock & roll and blues
You’d expect: Animate, sparkling and wild!
I played guitar and blew a saxophone too
But you get a monotonous, mundane, prosaic fool
Ah I I wish I’d been a better man for you
