    The first you will think is "Why such a ridiculous high price?" Well I only ordered five records and the less you order the higher is the price for each one. After so many years as an independent artist I am tired of storing hundreds of physical items in my apartment, which nobody is buying. Therefore this small Vinyl-edition is made for myself and I will keep two of the five records. But I am willing to sell the three others. In fact the costs for each record combined with the cover are above 50 Euros, so you see, that I don't get much benefit from a sale. Today the records have not arrived. As soon as I have them I will upload other photos.
    The Vinyl edition contains only 8 songs out off ten! Keep this in mind before you order!

The saddest noise, the sweetest noise, The maddest noise that grows,— The birds, they make it in the spring, At night’s delicious close. Between the March and April line— That magical frontier Beyond which summer hesitates, Almost too heavenly near. It makes us think of all the dead That sauntered with us here, By separation’s sorcery Made cruelly more dear. It makes us think of what we had, And what we now deplore. We almost wish those siren throats Would go and sing no more. An ear can break a human heart As quickly as a spear, We wish the ear had not a heart So dangerously near.

They put ma body in the ground, Ma soul went flyin' o' the town, Went flyin' to the stars an' moon A-shoutin', God, I's comin' soon. O Jesus! Lord in heaven, Crown on His head, Says don't be 'fraid Cause you ain't dead. Kind Jesus! An' now I'm settin' clean an' bright In the sweet o' ma Lord's sight— Clean an' bright, Clean an' bright.

Little Julie 03:10
Little Julie Has grown quite tall. Folks say she don't like To stay home at all. Little Julie Has grown quite stout. Folks say it's not just Stomach sticking out. Little Julie Has grown quite wise- A tiger, a lion, and an owl In her Eyes. Little Julie Says she don't care! What she means is: Nobody cares Anywhere.

what if a much of a which of a wind gives truth to the summer's lie; bloodies with dizzying leaves the sun and yanks immortal stars awry? Blow king to beggar and queen to seem (blow friend to fiend:blow space to time) —when skies are hanged and oceans drowned, the single secret will still be man what if a keen of a lean wind flays screaming hills with sleet and snow: strangles valleys by ropes of thing and stifles forests in white ago? Blow hope to terror;blow seeing to blind (blow pity to envy and soul to mind) —whose hearts are mountains, roots are trees, it's they shall cry hello to the spring what if a dawn of a doom of a dream bites this universe in two, peels forever out of his grave and sprinkles nowhere with me and you? Blow soon to never and never to twice (blow life to isn't: blow death to was) —all nothing's only our hugest home; the most who die,the more we live

“WHERE are you going to-night, to-night,— Where are you going, John Evereldown? There’s never the sign of a star in sight, Nor a lamp that’s nearer than Tilbury Town. Why do you stare as a dead man might? Where are you pointing away from the light? And where are you going to-night, to-night,— Where are you going, John Evereldown?” “Right through the forest, where none can see, There’s where I’m going, to Tilbury Town. The men are asleep,—or awake, may be,— But the women are calling John Evereldown. Ever and ever they call for me, And while they call can a man be free? So right through the forest, where none can see, There’s where I’m going, to Tilbury Town.” “But why are you going so late, so late,— Why are you going, John Evereldown? Though the road be smooth and the way be straight, There are two long leagues to Tilbury Town. Come in by the fire, old man, and wait! Why do you chatter out there by the gate? And why are you going so late, so late,— Why are you going, John Evereldown?” “I follow the women wherever they call,— That’s why I’m going to Tilbury Town. God knows if I pray to be done with it all, But God is no friend to John Evereldown. So the clouds may come and the rain may fall, The shadows may creep and the dead men crawl,— But I follow the women wherever they call, And that’s why I’m going to Tilbury Town.”

Blue Bayou 04:15
I went down walking by the Blue Bayou and I saw the sun go down. I thought about old Greeley and I thought about Lou and I saw the sun go down. White man makes me work all day and I work too hard for too little pay- The a white man takes my woman away. I'll kill old Greeley. The Blue Bayou turns red as a fire put the black man on a rope and pull him higher! I saw the sun go down. Put him on the rope and pull him higher! The Blue Bayou's a pool of fire. And I saw the sun go down, down down, lawd, I saw the sun go down!

I had two husbands. I could have had three - but my might-have-been was too good for me. When you grow up the hard way sometimes you don't know what's too good to be true, just might be so. He said, Madam, I swear All I want is you. Right then and there I knowed we was through! He worked all the time, spend his money with me - first time in my life I had anything free. I said, do you love me? or am I mistaken? You're always giving and never taking. I told him, Jackson, you better leave - you got some'n else up your sleeve: When you think you got bread it's always a stone - nobody loves nobody for yourself alone. He said, in me you've got no trust. I said, I don't want my heart to bust.

My old time daddy Came back home last night. His face was pale and His eyes didn't look just right. He says, “Mary, I'm Comin' home to you— So sick and lonesome I don't know what to do.” Oh, men treats women Just like a pair o' shoes— You kicks 'em round and Does 'em like you choose. I looked at my daddy— Lawd! and I wanted to cry. He looked so thin— Lawd! that I wanted to cry. But the devil told me: Damn a lover Come home to die!

When Susanna Jones wears red her face is like an ancient cameo Turned brown by the ages. Come with a blast of trumphets, Jesus! When Susanna Jones wears red A queen from some time-dead Egyptian night Walks once again. Blow trumphets, Jesus! And the beauty of Susanna Jones in red Burns in my heart a love-fire sharp like a pain. Sweet silver trumphets, Jesus!

Aunt Sue has a head full of stories. Aunt Sue has a whole heart full of stories. Summer nights on the front porch Aunt Sue cuddles a brown-faced child to her bosom And tells him stories. Black slaves Working in the hot sun, And black slaves Walking in the dewy night, And black slaves Singing sorrow songs on the banks of a mighty river Mingle themselves softly In the flow of old Aunt Sue's voice, Mingle themselves softly In the dark shadows that cross and recross Aunt Sue's stories. And the dark-faced child, listening, Knows that Aunt Sue's stories are real stories. He knows that Aunt Sue never got her stories Out of any book at all, But that they came Right out of her own life. The dark-faced child is quiet Of a summer night Listening to Aunt Sue's stories.

about

Back in 2002 "Heartscore" released its first official album called "Sculptures". Now - eighteen years later - I proudly present a brand new version of this classic. Everything on this rerelease was recorded from scratch again and I hope, that the songs can benefit from my improved knowledge about recording, mixing and mastering. Some arrangements are slightly altered (for an example some overdubs on "Blue bayou" were removed), but all in all the songs are not changed a lot. The biggest changes are the different lead singer. You can enjoy again Giacomo Rossi on lead vocals. Second I decided to change the song-order, because I felt, that the first half of the original album is less original than the second half, because on the first side the Led Zeppelin and Yes-influence is shining through a lot, while the second side is more orientated on Metal. Additionally I think, that in this way I achieve a better connection with the last album "Black riders part II".
