'Way out West there was this fella, fella I'm gonna tell ya about, fella by the name of Adam Parker. At least, that was the handle his lovin' parents gave him, but he never seemed to have much use for it 'imself. This Adam fella, he called himself "CANTARE". (*)
Now, "cantare"--some Latin verb, or other hifalutin' mumbo-jumbo from a dead language--that's the kind of deprecated, obsolescent nomenclature no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about Cantare that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. Everywhere he'd go, he'd always be singin' some tom-fool tune to himself. Sometimes he'd even tape himself again and again, singin' with copies of himself to beat the band.
O' course, I can't say he played Carnegie Hall--and he ain't never been to La Scala, and he ain't never toured 17 Yoo-rasian countries in a drug-induced yoo-phoric fog, trashing hotel rooms and leaving hordes of bra-less groupies and love-children in his wake.
But I tell you what: after seeing this folder and this-a-here music he's about to unfold--well, I guess you'll have heard somethin' ever' bit as stupefyin' as ya'd hear in any a those other places--and in English too, without risking the clap or ducking paternity suits. Then maybe ya can die with a smile on yer face, without feelin' like the good Lord gypped ya.
'Cause sometimes, a guy sings a song--and I'm talkin' about Cantare, here--and...well, it's the song for its time and place. It fits riiiight in there.
And that's Cantare, on eSnips.
And even if he's a crazy man--and Cantare is most certainly that: quite possibly the craziest in California, which would place him high in the runnin' for craziest world-wide--still, sometimes there's a song... sometimes, there's a song...
Well, shoosh, I done lost m'train of thought here! But--
--aw heck, I done innerduced 'im enough. The song abides. So git on in there, and take a listen or two for all us sinners.
