"Take This Power," the 8th track on the "Ministry" album, had an Easter egg that we had to split into two separate tracks on the digital version of the album for resale. Here is Track 8 in its original format, with "Take My Heart Away" immediately following a short silence.

In "Take This Power," you can hear Margaret's voice in a haunting doubling of a flute line played on a sampler. This was not planned. During a listening session after I recorded the vocal, Margaret started singing along with the flute. The engineer and I looked at each other, then looked at Margaret. He said, "Yes, let's do it."

In "Take My Heart Away," Margaret does the main singing while I join for backup and take the title line at the end of the song while she finished out. Mine is a role taken by a lot of female background singers in the '70s and '80s, restating a emoting the lead singer's performance with an emotional rendition at the end. There may be a name for this device but I'm not aware of it.

I believe this is the only time to date we used an Easter egg and the only time we used that particular type of vocal ending on a song. Friends who know our catalog may correct me on this. ;-)

Trying to get the "Ministry" album re-released as digital media, I ran into a problem. Track 8, "Take This Power," wouldn't upload because of the size. I had relegated myself to forgetting it but just discovered why. We had a bonus track hidden within Track 8, "Take My Heart Away," a song I had completely forgotten was included as an Easter egg on the album. Robert Peterson, being the good father to Margaret Peterson Harvey that he is. should greatly enjoy hearing this.

The album is now fully available for listening and purchase as individual tracks and as a full album. Enjoy!

One of my favorite songs we ever recorded was written by Jadan J Oliver. We were producing the song for him but his vocals didn't work on it. We tried mine and they ddn't sound good, either. Margaret Peterson Harvey came home for lunch (the recording studio was in our townhouse) and we asked her to learn and sing the song really quickly. On a one hour lunch break, she sang three takes. After she left, we discovered her takes layered really well over each other, as she was a really consistent singer, and they sounded great.

Jadan and I produced the song together, he played those soulful keyboards and I, of course, did the guitar work. Margaret, who usually preferred to remain out of the limelight, gave a beautiful performance in this song from around 2004.

I've spent my entire afternoon working on a script for a video about the overtone series and its relationship to tone color and the western, musical scale. This is the beginnings of a music theory series I want to do for my web channels.

It's difficult to do because there are so many rabbit holes I want to chase down in the video. I blame Jadan J. Oliver for getting me more deeply into synthesizers.

I provide my videos on three platforms currently, YouTube, Rumble and Odysee. Rumble was my first upload but, if you prefer YouTube, here's that link. In this first episode of "David Peterson Harvey's Strange World" for the year 2024, I am proud to present "The Musical World of Henna Mohamed" as she plays a Bach cello suite with no notice or prep time.

I do what I want the way that I want and, sometimes, other people get thrown into the mix. Here's my friend and fellow music teacher, Henna Mohamed, playing ...

I finally get to introduce the first episode of "David Peterson Harvey's Strange World" for the new year. I'm especially happy that this video is not about my antics but features my friend, Henna Mohamed, playing a cello piece by one of my favorite composers. I sincerely hope you enjoy it.

I've been playing around on this Yamaha YAS-23 that we are selling, making sure everything's working okay on it. It plays absolutely beautifully. The Tone Edge 5 * mouthpiece that comes with it sounds great with the saxophone. It has rich, deep tones for an alto sax and compares favorite with the YAS-26 that I play. It's in good shape except wear from being well played.

I see these saxophones going for $800 to $900 and above on eBay but some lucky student or musician will get this for only $450 with the mouthpiece. I got a good deal on it from someone under the condition that we would sell it for that price. Contact me if interested.

I have a couple of used saxophones for sale at great prices. Both are in good condition and are good choices for a beginner at a reasonable price.

This one is only $200. I also have a Yamaha YAS-23 for $450. The 23 usually goes for $800 - $900 in good playing condition.

They won't be around long. Contact me if you want to come in and see them.
