[Act I, Scene III: Victor’s Basement]

TW: Death, decapitation, zombies, skeletons, mentions of murder. May include disturbing imagery.

(The basement is cold and silent.)

(VICTOR enters from stage right. He carries a handheld lantern which gives flickering light. He produces a match to light the candles around the room. A voice emerges from the darkness, interrupting him. Accompanied by deep bass, it is dark and haunting, and shadows seem to sway with the words.)

[THE WARNING]

THE NARRATOR Child of dust, hewn of bone Here you play with fate Grasping at where the veil is thin Rousing those that ought to sleep

VICTOR (startled) Who hides in the gloom and speaks in riddles? Step forth and reveal yourself!

(The lantern flares as THE NARRATOR emerges from the darkness. VICTOR takes a step back.)

THE NARRATOR I am THE NARRATOR, the held breath The hand that writes, the one that waits I give warning to those close to the line The line that should not be crossed

(VICTOR looks up defiantly at THE NARRATOR.)

VICTOR So you are Death, here to kill me?

THE NARRATOR Not at all. I do not take lives, I merely warn. You walk a path paved in bone A path devoid of light or warmth Choose wisely, Wakefield, or you’ll find That the price is steep when the dead won’t die

(A look of understanding begins to dawn on Victor’s face, and along with it, renewed hope. He walks past THE NARRATOR.)

VICTOR What have I done to warrant a warning so grave From a being of a higher natural order? If you are here, then surely it means That what I pursue is within reach!

THE NARRATOR and VICTOR (overlapping) Foolish man, do you not see / Could it be that I’m onto something That you are headed for doom? / Could it be that I’m close? What you seek cannot be done / Nothing now can convince me to Turn back the way from which you came / Turn back the way from which I came

(THE NARRATOR shakes his head, resigned. He bows and steps backwards, fading once again into the shadows.)

THE NARRATOR So be it then, Victor Wakefield. Your choices are your own. I hope for your sake I need not return.

(VICTOR does not react – in fact, he doesn’t even notice the leaving. He stands, eyes wild, exhilarated.)

VICTOR This is my moment, my time to push And hold nothing back For if I at last succeed The grave will be silent no more!

(The music rises, triumphantly. VICTOR dashes to his workbench. All around him, the candles flare to life, illuminating the space.)

(He begins to work. The clock behind the workbench spins rapidly, showing the progression of time. As he works, three coffins emerge from the darkness. They open, spilling fog over the ground, and three figures step out.)

[THE DEAD THREE]

(In the candlelight, one figure steps forward. The strings are played in pizzicato, except a solo violin slithering through the melody.)

MONTGOMERY (growling, bitter) In life I was a rogue, a gambler, a cheat Although some have said I was a fine lover too But one night a poor sap took offense And shoved a dagger straight into me!

Oh, how I screamed and swore and cursed But nothing reversed the blood that left me And then I was buried where the worms ate me But now I’m back, though I’d rather be dead!

(The score changes to strong, declarative brass – a fanfare accompanying a grand entrance.)

SANTINO (boldly) In life I was a strongman in a circus I could lift a horse, or crush a tree But one night I picked a fight with gravity And the tightrope hit my neck on my way down!

Then my head rolled away from my body Or was it my body rolling away from my head? Now I sing with half a windpipe In this life more frightening than death!

(The brasses fade to forlorn woodwinds.)

THEODOROS (swaying, wistful) In life I was a poet of the dreaming kind Bathed in absinthe and candlelight But the world did not care for my words And let me fade to the hunger and cold

Now all that remains is bone and dust And still I am starved for food and love Why must I continue on this way Beyond the rest of the dark night?

TRIO (MONTGOMERY, SANTINO and THEODOROS) Now here we are, we didn’t ask for this But snatched from death we were nonetheless

MONTGOMERY A rogue

SANTINO A strongman

THEODOROS A forgotten poet

TRIO Playing our bygone roles again!

(VICTOR pays no heed to the lamentations of his creations. He kneels next to a coffin towards the back of the room. The orchestral score fades away. A music box on his workbench opens and begins to play ELESSA’S THEME.)

VICTOR (softly, almost a whisper) I am so close, Elessa my love Until I hear your voice I will give anything If only I could see your smile again…

(The music box winds down. The curtains fall.)

Hi everyone! I’ve moved to Australia this week and I’m starting a new job on Monday, so I’m not sure if I can keep up my weekly posting schedule. Also BG3 patch 8 drops this week (i.e. date night with Astarion). I will make an effort to keep posting as usual because I find it really hard to pick up momentum if I lose it, but if I suddenly disappear into the aether, that’s why!

Thank you all for reading, always ❤️

ELVIS RECORDED A SONG FOR HIS FATHER

The story of the track “If I’m A Fool (For Loving You)” recorded at the American Sound Studio in Memphis, Tennessee (1969)

[ABOVE] Elvis and his father, Vernon Presley, early 60s and 70s.

JANUARY 20, 1969 - AMERICAN SOUND STUDIO, MEMPHIS TENNESSEE

Elvis was working with the musicians in the studio since the night before, January 19. The night went on and it was already past midnight when, during a pause to catch the breath, Elvis Presley casually finds another song to record yet at that same recording session.

JANUARY 20, 1969 - AMERICAN SOUND STUDIO, MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE By 4:30 the next morning they were tired — and they’d pretty much exhausted the song list they’d come in with. Elvis and piano player Bobby Wood were sitting quietly on the piano bench talking about religion and music. Bobby had had a minor hit as a recording artist with “Searchin’” and had recorded Sun writer Stan Kesler’s “If I’m A Fool (For Loving You).” Elvis introduced Bobby to his father, and when Vernon said that “If I’m A Fool” was one of his favorites, Elvis decided to give it a try. Excerpt from "Elvis Presley: A Life in Music - The Complete Recording Sessions" (1998) by Ernst Jorgensen and Peter Guralnick

In an interview, this is what Bobby himself said about that moment:

Q: In 1964, you had a hit. Can you tell us when Elvis covered it? A: Yes, 'If I'm a Fool' in 1964 was a pretty big hit for me and so Elvis had know about that and his dad came in one night at the studio while we were recording Elvis. And he said, 'Dad, I'd like to have you meet somebody here'. And so he brought him over and I shook hands with him and then he introduced us and he said, 'Do you know who this guy is?' And he said, 'No, I'm not sure'. So Elvis said, 'What's your favorite record'. And he said, 'If I'm a Fool'. And he said, 'This is the guy that sang it'. And of course his father just said, 'Woah'. So Elvis went on and did it for his dad because that was one of his dad's favorite songs at the time.

— BOBBY WOOD'S "IF I'M A FOOL (FOR LOVING YOU)", THE SONG VERNON PRESLEY HEARD AND APPRECIATED:

— [BELOW] Bobby Wood's EP released in 1964

— [BELOW] ELVIS' RECORDINGS: TAKES 1, 2 & 3 — JANUARY 20, 1969

What Elvis thought about his own performance on the song:

Maybe it was just too late in the day to introduce a new song, but even with Bobby’s help the master they produced elicited only one word from Elvis: “Rotten.” It’s a measure of how high Elvis’s standards had risen by this point: The master of “If I’m A Fool” may have been one of the lesser cuts Elvis made at American, but measured against the years of Hollywood soundtrack crap that came before, it was still a giant leap of musicality.

THE MASTER OF "IF I'M A FOOL (FOR LOVING YOU)" WAS FIRST RELEASED IN 1970 IN THE COMPILATION ALBUM "LET'S BE FRIENDS".

Later the track was also released in the reissued album "From Elvis in Memphis" as bonus track in the "40th Anniversary Edition" (legacy edition, 2009).

— ADDITIONAL INFO

Elvis didn't only covered one version from his pianist Bobby Wood previously recorded tracks, but two. Still from the "Elvis Presley: A Life In Music" book:

On the 22nd Elvis returned to do repairs and to try another song Bobby Wood had recorded, the religious “Who Am I”.

Elvis' second song cover that had been previously recorded by Bobby Wood, "Who Am I?" was recorded in February 22, 1969 at the American Sound Studio, and first released in March 1971 in the compilation album "You'll Never Walk Alone". The track followed the same destiny as "If I'm A Fool (For Loving You)" being later released as a part of the "From Elvis in Memphis – 40th Anniversary Edition" (2009) also as a bonus track. Unfortunately I couldn't find Bobby's recording, not even the released EP with it.

Here's a quick interview in video with Bobby Wood telling how he met Elvis and his impressions of him.

Well, well, well. Such a nice info I came across today. I wonder if Vernon liked his son's version of Bobby Wood's country song "If I'm A Fool", one of his favorites at the time. Anyhow, it's cute to learn Elvis was not at first interested in recording this song until he acknowledged his father's personal liking of it. I guess it makes this tune a special gift to Vernon from his son, if you think about it. It was one 'at the spur of the moment' decisions when Elvis just followed his heart. ♥

Camino dress rehearsal - day 1

As many of you know we are hoping to do the first leg of the Mozárabe Way Camino after Easter. So today we set off with our packs as if we were doing the Camino and walked 19km to L’Estartit. I’ve always wanted to check out this place as I’ve only been here once years ago on a bike ride.

We were in luck with the weather, it was a glorious day, though a little nippy on the legs first thing. We met up with Katharine, Stephen and Willow in Montgo and had coffee before they accompanied us for the next little while.

For lunch we dropped down to a lovely beach (although pebbly). This is where Katharine and Stephen have brought us a couple of times on their boat.

After lunch there was a long climb back up and then another down to another beach. It was a beautiful walk, hugging the coast for much of it. So far my knee is holding up fine (🤞).

It was after 4pm when we arrived in L’Estartit so the first thing to be done was getting accommodation, closely followed by a drink.

We are staying in a hostal, again trying to simulate the Camino experience, though I’m pretty sure this one is much more luxurious than what is awaiting us in Andalusia.

Tonight we wandered into town for dinner. L’Estartit has obviously seen better days. Judging from the buildings it was quite grand at a point in time. I suspect that was pre the English discovering the south of Spain.

Jose had a place in mind for dinner, after some research, which of course was closed 😫. We did however find a suitable alternative and had a very nice meal and now I’m sitting up in bed completely stuffed. Hopefully I’ll walk it all off tomorrow 😬
