You can buy a Compact Disk in a 6-page album from our label in selected stores, or as a digital album, or individual tracks in mp3 or stream from 30 digital distribution partners, like Apple Music and Spotify. We have signed up with SoundCloud and Bandcamp as well, two other popular music services for “audiophiles and nerds.”
We don’t keep a Cent. So where goes the money?
Your €15.00 make €15.00 when you buy the CD direct, say at a concert, from one of us; or you have bought it online at our Webshop and paid for shipping. If you went to a record store and paid €15.00, both the store and the retailer would have kept a percentage. This means only between €4.00 and €6.00 came through.
Without a physical body, music costs less, say around €9.00 per album, or €1.00 per individual track, and the music services keep between 10 – 50%.

My work engages with the notions of identity through place, voice and histories. I write, perform, am a public speaker, radio show host, academic, events organiser, community project leader and freelance project co-ordinator, among other things. I recorded the above song during a year long project I organised with John Langford to raise funds for local Parkinson support groups in the Black Country and Birmingham. The song came about from a memory session I did with a dementia group and an elderly lady began to sing an old chapel song (only the first line as that was all she could remember). It developed into the song on the Parkinsong Duets CD. I asked Ray Andrews a local businessman who has Parkinson’s. He was the starting point of our fund raising efforts in 2018 and an inspiration.

Stefan Weber (8 November 1946 – 7 June 2018) was an Austrian art teacher and the lead singer and Kapellmeister of the Viennese band Drahdiwaberl. Weber founded the band in 1969 in the wake of the events of 1968. Drahdiwaberl were infamous for their elaborate stage shows which often include bizarre and, as some claim, disgusting elements.

One life is all we get
So make the most of it
Fulfil your dreams, follow your heart
Reach for the stars
Open your mind, feel compassion
But don’t let it blind you
Don’t close your eyes angel, be aware of everything
You got your whole life in front of you
Who knows what tomorrow may bring
Listen to the sermon, let your conscience grow
Feel your heartbeat, let your lifeblood flow
Believe in everything you do
Remember nobody can touch you
When your mind is free of guilt and your heart is true
True love is never easy to find
And it only takes a fool to be blind
Open your mind, feel it in your heart
Reach for the stars
Believe in everything you do
Remember nobody can touch you
When your mind is free of guilt and your heart is true
Believe in everything you do
Remember nobody can touch you
When your mind is free of guilt and your heart is true
Believe in everything you do

I’m driving here alone
The road I’ve ever known
When the night comes in
Will it change
My life so rough
I ask my stars above
How will I know, how
But I’m here to be with you
Forever be with you
Baby, how will it be
If I’m holding you tight
How will it be
If I love you tonight
How will it be
If I’m sharing all
All my dreams with you
I feel I’m not alone
With the fight I’ve ever known
Will you stand by me
Take my hand, take me all
Take the centre of my soul
Then you will know, you will
Why I’m here to be with you
Forever be with you
Baby, how will it be
If I’m holding you tight
How will it be
If I love you tonight
How will it be
If I’m sharing all
All my dreams with you
Solo
I’m here to be with you
Forever be with you
Baby, how will it be
If I’m holding you tight
How will it be
If I love you tonight
How will it be
If I’m sharing all
All my dreams with you
Forever be with you
Baby, how will it be
How will it be, how will it be
If I’m sharing all
All my dreams with you
Forever be with you
How will it be

I took a swim the other day
To wash away my sins and worries
I washed my hands I washed my face
but I can’t stay in here forever
The river I swim is not the river of mercy
The river I’m in is not the river of mercy
It doesn’t wash away my pains
It doesn’t grant me absolution
When I get out I’ll take the chance
To wash my hands in muddy water
The river I swim is not the river of mercy
The river I’m in is not the river of mercy
I’m gonna swim it after you
Pray you’ll wait out in the ocean
The river I swim is not the river of mercy
The river I’m in is not the river of mercy
Parkinsong duet performed by The Base and Gerald Ganglbauer

If you hit your head on the door it’s my fault
Because I left it open for you to go thru it
And if I had closed it you would have cursed me in a similar style
You put me in charge of your moods and your minds
Of the the things you forget, of the things you can’t find
Of your smiles, of your fears, of your pains and another half sleepless night
Why is it always me?
Who knows where it’s going
And where the wind’s blowing, it’s me
Why is it always me?
Who can make u feel better and make u feel worse
Who’s in charge of the fate of your whole universe
It is me
Now why is it me around who your world’s turning?
And why would I take care of all things concerning
Your primary needs and your wishes u don’t wanna talk about?
Now, I’ll be your hero and I’ll be your bag full of dirt
You can kiss me and kick me and hurt me
And lick me and call me things
Stupid things you do not care about
Why is it always me?
Who knows where it’s going
And where the wind’s blowing, it’s me
Why is it always me?
Who’s got the control, who can save every soul
It is me
Why is it always me?
Some say it’s a bliss but I see it as a curse
I’m in charge of the fate of your whole universe
It is me
Hi Gerald
Many thanks for your email.
As you will appreciate, many approaches are made to Sting, with similar requests as yours.
However, although he and we feel a strong sentiment for such requests, it is impossible to satisfy everyone’s wishes. And so as not to have the unfortunate task of having to pick and choose which request to go with, we have decided to put them on hold for the foreseeable future.
On Stings behalf we would like to wish you all the very best with your project.
Kind regards

[verse]
Ever in search for
The meaning of live
I’m giving and taking
On the edge of fates knife
I’m learning to taste the,
The tears of joy and fear
[bridge]
I’m living hope
A reckless smile
A pool of wit
Just the tools of a fool
[chorus]
Then I break all chains
And don’t ask why
I take my broken wings
And learn how to fly
I make a new start
No, no mountain that’s too high
I believe in what I do
Working hard to make it true
In my life, in this life
[verse]
Should I think it’s better
To stay at the same four walls
No, I am a free man
In the mercy of my Lord
[bridge]
I’m living hope
A reckless smile
A pool of wit
Just the tools of a fool
[chorus]
Then I break all chains
And don’t ask why
I take my broken wings
And learn how to fly
I make a new start
No mountain that’s too high
I believe in what I do
Working hard to make it true
In my life, in this life
I break all chains
solo
I believe in what I do
Working hard to make it true
In my life, in this life
[chorus]
Then I break all chains
Break all chains
Break all chains
Break all chains
I Break all chains
(Break all chains)
I Break all chains
(Break all chains)
I Break all chains
(Break all chains)
Break all, break all chains
(Break all chains)
Parkinsong duet performed by John Langford and Gisi Steinert
Words and music by John Langford
Ich schaue in deine Augen
Ohne Schmerz oder Kummer
Ich schaue in deine Augen
Es ist nur Liebe, die ich sehe
Dann schaue ich in deine Augen
Ich sehe ein neues Morgen
Like ships in the night
Things get hidden away
The darkness it hides
Things we should see in the day
We must realise
Life’s a game we all play
Open your eyes
Just open your eyes
Then I look into your eyes
And see a new tomorrow
I look into your eyes
Without pain or sorrow
I look into your eyes
It’s just love I see
Then I look into your eyes
And I don’t fear nothing
You make me realise
All the good times coming
I look into your eyes
And you’re all that I need
Wenn ich in deine Augen schaue,
Fürchte ich nichts
Du bringst mich dazu zu erkennen,
Dass gute Zeiten kommen
Dann schaue ich in deine Augen
Du bist alles was ich brauche
Like ships in the night
Our lives they just flicker away
We all take our sides
It’s a game we all play
Our fate will decide
What we do everyday
Just open your eyes
Open your eyes
Then I look into your eyes
And see a new tomorrow
I look into your eyes
Without pain or sorrow
I look into your eyes
It’s just love I see
Then I look into your eyes
And I don’t fear nothing
You make me realise
All the good things coming
I look into your eyes
And you’re all that I need

Parkinsong duet performed by Eros Bresolin and Julia Jockelson
Words and music by Eros Bresolin
I’m sitting at a cross-road, waiting for you
Waiting for you but I don’t really want to
Wait here for you
But you gave me no choice
So I’m waiting for you
So parkin me
Parkin you
Parkin everything that I ever do
Yes, Park me
And most definitely
Park you too.
Well we left the crossroad
And we headed your way
Down a one-way street
But it was the wrong way
I said “Please can we turn around
Because I notice that we’re heading for
Parky-Town?”
So parkin me
Parkin you
Parkin everything that I ever do
Yes, Park me
And most definitely
Park you too.
The closer I got the more people I could see
Heading down the same road as me
Some of them tried to run
But Parky said “You have to come and
meet my son”
So parkin me
Parkin you
Parkin everything that I ever do
Yes, Park me
And most definitely
Park you too.
Today I’m going to hand in my resignation
I don’t want to be a member of your
Parky-Nation
Anymore, anymore
So, park you too.
So parkin me
Parkin you
Parkin everything that I ever do
Yes, Park me
And most definitely
Park you too.
Park you too.
Park you too.
16. Oktober 2015, Lässerhof (Stattegg, Steiermark)
Leo Kysèla und Joerg Veselka gelang es nicht nur ihr Publikum zum Schwingen zu bringen, die beiden faszinierten einmal mehr ebenso durch ihre harmonischen Stimmen wie ihr virtuoses Gitarrenspiel.
Joerg Veselka – vielleicht zu Beginn unterschätzt – bewies von Anfang an, dass er nicht der Zauberlehrling des großen Meisters, sondern Ergänzung wie Quadratur des Erfolges so manchen Liedes ist, das, wenn auch schon in der Soloversion Kysèlas bekannt, durch ihn eine neue, gediegene Steigerung erfuhr.
Die Parkinson Selbsthilfe Parkinsonline, deren Präsident Gerald Ganglbauer dieses Konzert initiiert und organisiert hatte, machte mit einem Infostand auf die Krankheit aufmerksam und Leo Kysèla betonte seinen innigen Wunsch, Parkinson erkrankte Menschen zu unterstützen.
Neben aller Soulklänge kam aber auch die Geselligkeit nicht zu kurz im gemütlichen Ambiente des Lässerhofes, der die Räumlichkeiten der Selbsthilfe zur Verfügung stellte.
Neben Bürgermeister Karl Zimmermann durfte Gerald Ganglbauer an diesem Abend auch die Grünen Gemeinderäte Helmuth Binder und Stefan Rothbart begrüßen, die mein Portrait Kysèlas mit dessen Originalsignatur ersteigerten.
„Together for you“, von Leo Kysèla seinem Sohn gewidmet und Parkinsonline als Hymne zur Verfügung gestellt und zum Leitmotiv geworden, verklang in berührender Stille mit Kerzenschein im Publikum und bei „Back in the days“ schwang sich Gerald Ganglbauer spontan auf die Bühne und ergänzte das Duo stimmgewaltig.
Von Leo Kysèla www.soul.at und Joerg Veselka www.joerg-veselka.com gibt es zahlreiche CDs, einen Rückblick der gelungenen Veranstaltung auf www.parkinsonline.info (M. Parkinson > Benefizkonzert).
