We’ve heard a lot about Gunther Köhler in the last few days. What you might not know is that when he’s not busy snatching sleeping lizards off of leaves in the highlands of Mesoamerica or counting scales in his Frankfurt laboratory, he plays guitar in a flaggstaff, a country band. The band is about to release its latest CD, Stomping Grounds, and one single, Chiriqui Stream, is appropriate for our pages. You can download the MP3 and then sing along:
Chiriqui Stream
- When the nights grow late and the fires die down
When the fog and mist start boiling around
At camp site down by the Chiriqui stream
Where we search for creatures nobody’s seen
- The thrill of the night hike blows you away
As we move on, magic’s underway
We poke through the forest with its pines and oaks
With the sound of the woods, the creeks and slopes
Chorus: Living my dream at the Chiriqui stream
Finding my fortune in this unreal scheme
With a family of creatures nobody’s seen
Right down at the Chiriqui stream
- On the fog shrouded slopes and rugged peaks
A world of its own with its lovely creeks
Its unforeseen bugs and mystical sounds
No doubt we’re here on unknown grounds
