Finger style and Acoustic Progressive guitar, flute, synth and Mellotron.
Welcome to the music of Carlo D'Anna's Ridiculous Dream music. Also known as "Dream Warrior" in some circles. Influences and music styles ranging from basic to progressive rock, with definite Retro seventies sound. If you enjoy the sound of Moody Blues, George Harrison, Genesis, Dead Can Dance, and others of the same style, more or less, you will probably like this music. I use quite a bit of Mellotron and acoustic fingerstyle guitar as well.

Lyrics
Daddy’s Dream © 1982 Joyce M Davis. All rights reserved. When she was all of three years old She’d ask her daddy why The wind blew so strong and loud at night And the sun fell, from the sky She’d ask for one more story And he’d say, “I suppose” He’d speak soft and slowly ‘til her eyes began to close Chorus: In daddy’s dream he reaches out For his little girls’ hand And as he wakes, the years have passed Like waves upon the sand He’d watch her from the window As she played out in the yard The best throw in the neighborhood Her knees already scarred “Honey,” he would say to her, “Would you like this pretty dress?” But he knew she wouldn’t go for that So he never said the rest Chorus Am Never did he disobey She was her daddy’s pride Then one day he noticed That she wasn’t by her side Daddy’s girl had grown And gone some miles away But he knew the phone would ring And he’d hear he sweet voice say “Dad, hello, I’m doing fine How’s mom and are you well? Goodbye I’ll call again real soon…” He’d cry but she can’t tell Chorus

how'd i miss this one? What a sweet, gentle little song. Jolee sings it with the sentimental touch it calls for. Those minors are so sad! Like the "renaissance" sound of the guitar. Spanish flavored dreams. Nice!

Very very special. Beautifully written and performed. As a father of 5 lovely daughters can attest to the emotional rush from the lyrics. Your sound is so perfect here as well, amazing.

This is a great song.The lyrics,chord prgression and melody is put together very nicely.The guitar sounds really good.I also think the voice share similarities to Joan Baez.Meaning they are great :) The melody and chords in the verse does remind me of a Neil Young song,but i cant remember the name of it. Anyway,Excellent work. :) I enjoyed listening to this. :)
