SUPERCIRCUITMAN invites you now to PLEASE CHOOSE YOUR GROOVE: POP ROCK REGGAE ALT TECHNO COUNTRY ROCK SWING "When The Rivers Are Hot (1980)" Ross Campbell & Fat Chants HOT VINYL This was Fat Chants' first studio recording and has gained some notoriety among the global vinyl collectors' community. It talks of nuclear accidents that have released radio-active water and fall-out, endangering species, including ours. https://www.discogs.com/seller/Supercircuitman2/profile This Vinyl LP was Produced by Vancouver's Claire Lawrence, of Chilliwack & Hometown Band fame, & Recorded at Pinewood Studios in Vancouver in 1982. This version of "When The Rivers Are Hot (1982)" is much more laid back and less political than the more famous 1980 version, yet very funky in its mid-80s way, even featuring a Prophet 5 synthesizer, the latest rage at the time. Check it out to hear the different bass lines by Brian ("Nuke") Newcomb & very groovy percussion by Kat Hendrikse.

It includes a dozen Swing Standards not available on the Download version, as well as Ross's Original songs listed above. FAT CHANTS LIVE @ HOTBOX This CD was Recorded Live at the famous HOTBOX, one of Edmonton's early Jazz & Swing venues, attended and performed by many of the Master Teachers & Star Students of the Grant MacEwan Jazz School just down the road. It includes some of Alan Stein's hilarious, spontaneous monologues between songs, which are unavailable on the Download version. As you will hear, Alan was a natural stand-up comedian and could turn anything into a joke. Archival Collection CD Give My Heart 2 U DVD I'm Talkin' To You CD

SUPER CIRCUIT MAN BAD COP SONG Dance On The Breeze Performance Videos My Cup Runneth Over Turn It Off The Lie The Inevitable Passing of Our Youth Give My Heart to You You Gotta Keep Beatin' Your Head Against the Wall SUPER CIRCUIT MAN Turns It Off! A Dream within a Dream, Wrapped in an Enigma... This video tells the story of how Ross, a humble computer clerk, accidentally stumbles into the digital universe of SUPERCIRCUITMAN , who takes him on a SuperCircuitDream, dialling up a fantasy band to kick out Turn It Off! , a Ross Campbell song. Computer Ross gets high on the technology and trips out with his fantasy band, only to be plagued by his Alter Ego, Caveman Ross, who fights back with a low tech solution. All of which, amazingly, Ross had dreamed as a young lad. The video was Written & Directed by Allan R. Stein, to whose memory this website is dedicated, Edited by Marke Slipp, & Produced by Ross Campbell, with the much-appreciated assistance of many members of the Edmonton Film Community, the dance troupe, Kompany, and funding from The Alberta Foundation for the Performing Arts. Thanks to all, & Happy SuperCircuitDreams! Entre Chien et Loup Dempster Ross (near the Arctic Circle)
- Unrequited Love | supercircuitman
Unrequited Love I Want You To Know This song is about a Lost Opportunity, a Love Affair that almost happened but just didn't quite Pan Out, for whatever reason. The first verse ponders Past Mistakes & Regrets, as one tends to do when mourning a L ost Relationship. The Second Verse is purposely vague, even a bit mystical, a mixture of old I mages, Emotions & Occasions all jumbled together, as they tend to be in one's mind at such times. The verse ends early with the enigmatic question: "Don't you know I know you think that I was Blind?" Underneath all is a very Real if Unrequited Love I Want You To Know 00:00 / 03:33 If you like this song, you can DOWNLOAD IT FOR FREE HERE DOWNLOAD LYRICS Vancouver Keyboardist David Pickell uses his Rhodes Piano to build a Gentle but Insistent Groove on top of Ross Campbell's basic chords and carry the Listener away into Dreamland, where this song lives. Brian "Nuke" Newcomb plays Fretless Bass, with Kat Hendrikse on Drums & Alan Perkins on Percussion. Later, Pickell brings his Prophet Five Analogue Synthesizer into the mix to round out the Etherial Vibe. If you REALLY like this song, please send Ross a couple of bucks to help fund his next album of Original Music, where your name will be included in the Credits, and you will become a Member of his TOP FAN CLUB! Thanks a lot!
- SWING | supercircuitman
Swing Must You Use The Word,"Love"? Because so-o-o many songs have been written about Love, song writers have often strived to introduce some unexpected twist or POV to help their song stand out. Must You Use The Word "Love"? is Ross's entry into that category. Written during Ross's time at Jazz School, the song not only has lyrics reflecting an unusual approach to Love, but there is also a "weird chord", namely a 'Minor Major Seventh Chord' lurking in the Harmonic Structure --- can you hear it? Must You 00:00 / 04:29 If you like this song, you can DOWNLOAD IT FOR FREE HERE DOWNLOAD LYRICS Toronto Bassist George Koller works with Drummer Dave Bjarneson to create the Solid Swing Groove, then Dazzling Pianist Andrew Glover has his way with it, with Ross adding a sax solo. If you REALLY like this song, please send Ross a couple of bucks to help fund his next album of Original Music, where your name will be included in the Credits, and you will become a Member of his TOP FAN CLUB!

Sandra - W Ross Campbell (intro) What you sayin', Sandra? Don't shove that bit at me Come back 'n' be my woman like you used to be What you sayin', Sandra? Don't shove that shit at me Come back 'n' be my woman like you used to be Vs I Sandra, are you never gonna let me off the hook, my friend? You know I never thought unkindly of you even when you had no use for me Sandra, Please stop sending me quotations from some book you've read There's no use in holding grudges-- We only had to do what had to be Stop me if I'm wrong, but I'm sad to say our Golden Day is over Vs II Sandra, I still love to hear the fog horns bounce round Horseshoe Bay Every time I take a ferry-- I think one day I'll walk up to your door Sandra, I remember making love to you in Stanley Park While the sun shone off the ocean-- we used to sit for hours by the shore But that was long ago and I'm sad to say our Golden Day is over (recitation) But that was long ago and I'm sad to say our Golden Day is over (repeat intro)
- Dirty Love Lyrics | supercircuitman
Give My Heart To You - W Ross Campbell I lead a half-life in No-M an's Land, I live between the walls My mind has many mirrors and my house is full of halls And I am very interested in what it is you do And I would be prepared, My Dear, to give my heart to you (Chor) I wanna give my heart to you (rep x4) Now you were born in riches and I was born in rags And up to now we've always been in completely different bags But here is where the change comes, from now on we'll be thick Give me just your smile, Babe, and I will give you dick (Chor) I wanna give my heart to you (rep x4) We have an agreement that we'll never go to church But I know where I'd stand if you left me in the lurch I'd curl up like a jellyfish and that would be my end Keep me from that fate, Babe, and I will be your friend (Chor) I wanna give my heart to you (rep x4)
