Ode To Jack Casady ~ James McBride

 



(Verse 1)
In the heart of the rhythm, where the bass strings hum,
There's a legend with a groove, and his name is Casady, Jack, the one.
With fingers that dance on the strings so bold,
He's the heartbeat of the music, a story to be told.

(Chorus)
Ode to Jack Casady, the maestro of the low,
In the realm of the bass, where legends grow.
Through the notes and the riffs, a melody so sweet,
In the hands of Jack, the rhythm finds its beat.

(Verse 2)
In the early days of the Jefferson Airplane flight,
He laid the foundation, with pure bass might.
From Woodstock to the city lights aglow,
Jack Casady's bass, a river's gentle flow.

(Pre-Chorus)
Through the decades, his fingers kept the time,
A rhythm magician, in every paradigm.
Ode to Jack Casady, in the bassline's trance,
A musical journey, a lifetime dance.

(Chorus)
Ode to Jack Casady, the maestro of the low,
In the realm of the bass, where legends grow.
Through the notes and the riffs, a melody so sweet,
In the hands of Jack, the rhythm finds its beat.

(Bridge)
In the echo of the strings, a story unfolds,
Of a bass virtuoso, whose tale is told.
With every pluck and every sliding note,
Jack Casady's magic, in every anecdote.

(Verse 3)
From Hot Tuna to the bluesy roar,
He painted landscapes on the bass's core.
In the groove and the pocket, he found his home,
Ode to Jack Casady, in the bass realm he roams.

(Pre-Chorus)
Through the highs and the lows, the rhythm alive,
In the heartbeat of the music, he'll always thrive.
Ode to Jack Casady, the bass guitar's sage,
In every measure, he writes the page.

(Chorus)
Ode to Jack Casady, the maestro of the low,
In the realm of the bass, where legends grow.
Through the notes and the riffs, a melody so sweet,
In the hands of Jack, the rhythm finds its beat.

(Outro)
As the strings settle and the music fades,
The spirit of Jack Casady forever pervades.
In the symphony of life, where the basslines meet,
Ode to Jack Casady, in the rhythm's heartbeat.
