Words of Wisdom 1: Terence McKenna and Mark Pesce with improvised music by Cosmic Bos

 So friends,

Here we present to you an idea that has been banging around for quite a while now, an improvised musical journey with a wise speaker over the top, and where better to start such an idea then with the one and only Terence McKenna.

So for your wisdom today, Cosmic Bos Improvisation presents

Words of Wisdom 1: Terence McKenna and Mark Pesce


Terence McKenna ladies and gentlemen, what a legend.

The Terence and Mark sample is taken from an awesome podcast called the Psychedelic Salon, which has been around for a long time, putting out amazing talks by some brilliant and insightful minds.

Link to the full talk here https://psychedelicsalon.com/podcast-116-techno-pagans-at-the-end-of-history/

Humanity stands at a pivotal point in history, the now moment is changing so rapidly that it appears impossible to have a grasp on reality, we have all been hoodwinked and are stumbling around dazed and confused, but not to worry, for clarity comes once dust settles and calm befalls us all, for the storm can not rage forever, and hate eventually gets tired and goes to sleep for a bit.

Thank you for spending some of your time with us here at the Cosmic Blog, you are wonderful and great things will happen for you, so go get it Tiger (I am obviously assuming that the main audience base for this blog is large cat based, skewing towards Lions, Tigers, Panthers etc. as well as domesticated felines of course, this is for the cats).

Please follow us on all the things, youtube is good, it has that subscribe button and handy bell thing too!

Also our podcast https://cosmicbos.libsyn.com , available where you get your podcast from


And our Spotify


Good things for your ears

Peace and infinite love

Cosmic Bos all over your year (with fresh improv and covers galore)

 So friends,

Rubber gloves are off, it's knuckling down time, time to business like adults, no more playing in the sand pits of despair, no more swinging on the swing of moods, let's year the hell out of this thing, yeah!

Already we are in the second month of 2021, and it's been pretty much a condensed version of 2020, oh boy, just what we always wanted, more pandemic-ammonium, yum yum, that's a medicine I can happily take without a spoonful of sugar.

It's like we are all waiting for something...


Thanks Anya for acting and singing there, amazing performance. Sorry we kept you waiting so long.

You see, we recorded the album that is Cosmic Bos Improv-Revisation Ep.17: Magic Eye Can Believe In all the way back on the 25th of July 2020, with the 3 Bos boys (Macey, Nick and Andy) and Anya Louisa and Ben Bluebird. It was originally slated to be the penultimate episode of Season 2 (2020), but due to unforeseen circumstances it was pushed back to being the first episode of Season 3. On the very next day (26/7/2020) we recorded another record (Cosmic Bos Improv-Revisation Ep.18: Virtual Normality) with Anya and Ben again. This was originally to be the very last episode of Season 2 (2020) but due to the aforementioned unforeseen circumstances it has now been relocated to the second episode of Season 3 (2021).

Best laid plans and all that, you just never know quite how things will go, so, you know you'll never really know, you know!

Sometimes you don't always get what you Aim for. Take it away Anya


Thanks again Anya, a truly awesome single there, something worth sharing with everyone you ever meet. It is available on all platforms, except train platforms as there is no direct video or musical feature to the rail industry.

If you are in need of a link to the full Anya & Ben episode, find it just below these very words, in embedded player form.


The year is set to continue, I don't think time is going anywhere other than forwards at the same speed it's been travelling for a while now. We here at Cosmic Bos have been running some complex tests, tuning some instruments, tweaking some knobs (completely un-music related activity) and have calibrated our equipment to be able to bring you Cosmic Bos Acoustic Covers (CB/AC), starting off proceedings with a little song called Live Forever by Oasis


Do you know what I mean?

If you do then please email me at cosmicbos@gmail.com and tell me what I mean.

Thanks for your precious time,

Peace and infinite love

Cosmic Bos Improv-revisation Ep.17: Magic Eye Can Believe In (ft. Anya Louisa and Ben Bluebird)

Hello lovely you,

Gosh you are amazing, how do you do it so effortlessly? I want to know your secrets, but not now, this is neither the time nor place for such wisdom, this is a blog about a podcast, the first Cosmic Bos improv revised album of 2021, featuring the outstandingly talented Anya Louisa and Ben Bluebird, without further wasting of your time with meaningless words, I present to you Cosmic Bos Improv-revisation Ep.17: Magic Eye Can Believe In (you already knew the title, it says it at the top, don't go acting like it was a revelation of any kind)

The album on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/album/0ex2KrTXKqQ4W3PcprmO5r?si=Ei1QFsnxQcuNLm-qM2vu6w

Season 3 starts with a magic trick, watch as we improvise and then revise an entire album from one days jamming session. It's the same trick we have now pulled 17 times, but it's a good trick and it has a vastly different outcome every time, so, ta dah! 

Anya Louisa brings a whole new dimension to the Cosmic Bos set up, and Ben Bluebird spices up the music and vocal atmosphere just lovelily, big thanks to them both.

We tackle the big questions on everyones minds, like, is magic real? do Magicians need dating apps specially designed for their illusionist needs? How should you rub your wicker bells so as not to get blisters on your fingers? All these questions and more won't be answered in this podcast, but they might get discussed, maybe. At least you have 12 improv songs with beautiful vocals by Anya to enjoy.

Here are the two video's that accompany the episode as well, should you wish to view them, once you've finished listening to the episode of course :)

Waiting


Aim
