Winning Hand (free) 03:19
The Winning Hand Out on the edge of the road to insanity Running in circles and squares as they follow me. follow me Hard to imagine one place for eternity I need my feet in the sand & a few palm trees But nothings free Can she move like the way I do? Are you thinking of her when I’m here with you You got the winning hand, the winning hand Can he dance like the way I do I bet your thinking of him when I’m here with you You got the winning hand. The Winning Hand. Is this your only way out? Is it the winning hand? Out on the road playing shows Larry James the third Brighton & Hove & the Wizard of Maidenhead follow me. Back on a plane then a train called the underground Making our way to see Sam back in London town. So come on out! Can she move like the way I do? Are you thinking of her when I’m under you? You got the winning hand, the winning hand Does he dance like the way I do? I bet your thinking of him while I’m here with you You got the winning hand. The winning hand. Is this your only way out? Cause it’s the only way out You better figure it out now You got the winning hand.

I told you stories I've told you lies Been drinkin’ slowly To my surprise You never existed It's just my twisted mind The poor young and gifted got left behind No chance no say, no chance no say, he's got no chance, and no say Chorus So tell me why Does it gotta be this way, yeah I’m begging you To walk away There’s fires a blazin’ It’s 4th of July Her majesty’s waiting but no one survived as the smoke surrounds me She holds me tight A gun for thinkin’ He’s on my side No chance no say, no chance no say, he's got no chance, no say Chorus So tell me why Does it gotta be this way? I’m begging you to walk away I’ve told you stories I’ve been telling you lies Your mine tonight

about

Almost eight years have passed since I first received a demo tape from an old, old friend. I still have it floating around somewhere in my studio, an analog TDK cassette loaded with early 4-track recordings from what was to become my favorite American pop group, le Mood. The tunes were catchy, they were lighthearted, they were infectious. And I was hooked.

A lot has happened since those first promising tracks arrived in my mailbox. Tours, records, and year after year of almost nonstop gigging at home have anchored le Mood at the forefront of a secret New York indie pop renaissance. The group continues to produce painstakingly crafted pop gems, but the songs have taken on greater depth and musical dexterity with each subsequent release. The seraphic tones of three part harmonies have become haunted by a carefully crafted specter of melancholy and longing. The giddy joy of success and anticipation is imbued with nostalgia on a cold winter's night, a dream-like memory of long summer days on the endless beaches of their native Florida. Its this interplay of youthful exhilaration and sullen lover's lament that allows Adventures in Stereo to transcend the confines of a traditional power pop record.

In an age where the digital download has killed the concept album, le Mood has crafted Adventures in Stereo with a different approach. This is not a concept record; its a moment record. A feeling record. A mood record. A soundtrack to a flashback of a sunset bonfire on Fort Lauderdale beach. A record that oozes pop perfection, upbeat and urgent, psychedelic and insightful, capable of finding warm moments in even the bitterest cold of winter.

So go ahead and drop the needle. Get up and dance. Reminisce about the good times you've had. You're about to have some more.

Rev. Travis Woods
