lyrics
Lyrics by Manca Miro:
I walked along these concrete shores before
and looked into the midnight sky
and though I always knew there must be more
its depth had never drawn my eye.
Tonight it pulls me
as though it wants to sweep me
to outer space
from where I won’t return.
My mind draws open
to swallow the stars
and all their light.
Now I can feel
how small I had been
with my supernova heart.
I thought I knew who I had been before.
I thought I knew where I had stood.
Yet now I have discovered something more
that in me there is so much room.
That thoughts - untethered - falling through
space like feathers
could fill me up and fly me home again.
I walked along these concrete shores before
and looked into the midnight sky
and though I always knew there must be more
its depth had never drawn my eye.
Tonight it pulls me
as though it wants to sweep me
to outer space
from where I won’t return.
My mind draws open
to swallow the stars
and all their light.
Now I can feel
how small I had been
with my supernova heart.
I thought I knew who I had been before.
I thought I knew where I had stood.
Yet now I have discovered something more
that in me there is so much room.
That thoughts - untethered - falling through
space like feathers
could fill me up and fly me home again.

Touch My Beloved's Thought
by Greg Wardsupported by 635 fans who also own “I Thought I Knew (for Pedro Giraudo)”
Ward's swirling, breezy sax feels very close and intimate - listening to it I pictured myself in a small basement room as the band played - but the 10 tongues paint a joyful and sophisticated urban fairytale that changes scene cinematically and builds to a satisfying finale.

Fabliaux
by Dave Douglas & Monash Art Ensemblesupported by 633 fans who also own “I Thought I Knew (for Pedro Giraudo)”
This is a great record! It reminds me a little of Gunther Schuller's 'Third Wave' experiments. I admire Dave for his consistent involvement in moving the music forward ...as complex, involving and articulate as anything he has done.

by Greg WardChicago sax luminary Greg Ward develops the dual-guitar frontline of his backing Rogue Parade quintet as an avatar for singular strength on this zesty collection of jazz-rock fusion songs.

Be Still
by Dave Douglas Quintetsupported by 631 fans who also own “I Thought I Knew (for Pedro Giraudo)”
It is a tender tribute to the spiritual. It reminds me of musical roots older than my first memories. It comforts me and reminds me that I am never alone.
