Milking the Cows
04:22

|

“Early to rise the sun not risen
Waking to the rooster singin’
Out the door and through the lawn
I meet my grandpa in the barn
I sit down next to him as he milks the cows
Enjoying this time in the here and now
This time is special bonding time
For someday he will no longer be around
Chores seem like fun when I’m with gramps
The cows are dry for now time for some steak and eggs.”

Steak & Eggs
02:27
|
|

“Coming in from the barn and smell something amazing
The smell is familiar it smells like meat braising
Hungry from chorin’ early in the morning
On this old mountainside farm it never gets boring
Scrambled eggs and some steak, a classic here in this home
Filling and hearty to keep us all going
I eat with fresh milk and my grandpa drinks coffee
Finish my breakfast now time for a toffee
Plates all clean, wash my dishes and go
There will be time to rest when we see the first snow...”

Hot Summer Day
07:57
|
|
||
|
“No time to play on this hot summer day
Here we are outside in the fields chorin’ away
From feeding the chickens to tending to crops
The days seem much longer when they are hot
Grandpa needs help as he grows older in age
His hair used to be red but now full of grays
Homemade lemonade is our only relief
It’s these simple pleasures that keep us going, I believe...”

Herding Sheep
04:34
|
|
||
|
“The hot midday sun has almost done past
Tis almost time to just lay in the grass
Up on the hill where we tend to the sheep
My favorite of chores, oh yes indeed
Just my Grandpa and I herding them calmly
With the sun going down it finally gets balmy
The sheep are so meek and just do what their told
Possibly because half the herd’s growing old
They trust in my grandpa and seem calmed by his voice
The sheep are now happy within the mountains at once...”

Supper Time
02:50
|
|
||
|
“Once again, time for another rhyme
For after a long day of chores finally comes supper time
Lamb with some thyme and potatoes and beans
Grandpa always making sure we eat greens
A well balanced diet to keep us both well
I can see he is aging, but to him I never would tell
He’s worked hard as an ox for many a year
Every once in a while enjoys a cold beer
We sit down and eat in quiet and peace
It really couldn’t get better than this
Rain starts to fall now, a storm’s rolling in
A real cozy night is about to begin.”

“After supper comes time to relax
Gramps in his favorite chair tending to his back
The will to stop working is something he lacks
We listen to music softly on his turntable
Songs of the countryside, stories and fables
The candles flickering make pictures to the tunes
It couldn’t be cozier in this little room
I finally make my way up to my bed
For now it is time for me to rest my head
I think of the day and the fun that we had
It makes me feel warm, content and glad
I really love spending time with my dear ol’ grandad...”

Hello there my friends, and thanks for stopping by! I am so humbled and proud to share this release with you all and invite you all to come and join me for this nostalgic musical recalling of a beautiful day spent on my Grandad's countryside farm by the mountains.
From a morning spent milking the cows to a hot summer day of chorin' and a nice relaxing night just letting the bones rest after a hard days work. Let the soothing sounds of lofi analog synths, ambient sounds of nature and the farm animals take you back to a simpler and beautiful time. Enjoy the countryside views as you close your eyes and let the stress fade away.
RIP Grandpa. I will never forget the times we spent together.
-Farmer Josiah

flies the coop II
by Hole Dwellersupported by 28 fans who also own “Country Mountain Memories - WGR022”
My favorite out of the three I believe.The sound is more aggressive and fits the cover art of what looks like a perilous journey for the protagonist. Fits well at being the second in the trilogy of albums. Every song is good and the cassette tape and package is of good quality. A Great buy that deserves a vinyl edition.

A dreamy, beguiling, nostalgic dungeon synth quest through the shires. But, it's so much more than that. The LP incorporates some unique key changes, field recordings and a lot of Mort Garson style synth work. It sometimes reminds me of old 70's PG horror soundtracks. The record is addictive melancholy inspiration. The ideal music for accompanying the dawning morning of an epic adventure.

I love the mix of quiet melancholy and soaring wonder here. Listening makes me feel like I am looking up at the night sky on another world, watching impossible boreal colors dance along the horizon while tall trees sway in the keening wind, and gray-cloaked figures add their own long-dead voices to the joyful lament.
