Love ur stuff. I hope u get the recognition u deserve. Both these songs u got loaded up are brilliant. But it seems that a lot of tunes here are full of high tech wonder and the brilliance in the complexity of your subject matter and the musical accompaniment with the guitar is exceptional. But I just think that as brilliant as it is and I'm sure there's more then a handful of people that can appreciate because it is so good how could you ignore it's going be buried neath a ever ending strream of musical uploads Maybe I'm wrong u never know if hte right person hears it that has the connections might be able to get it out there. But your songs will live on after your demise if there's anybody or anyway they can be played
~Through the night, and darkness, we rush forward to the tops of the universe. What for we're?~
The original version of this song was composed, written and mixed on board of the night train to Berlin, in 2004. Here is an updated version number…
Overnight
the world went fake
Everything has been replaced
With pale imitations
Gray reflections
The food has no taste
Surrounded by automatons
Programmed not to see what's going on
Cheap props and flimsy sets
A tired plot and bad effects…
Began with the drum beat, added some guitar sounds, messed about with Revitar 2 and put them on top of the drums, did some experimenting with the lyrics, I looked up all the strains of weed and made a list of their names and made the song out…
Song #2 for the RPMC. My goal is to have 12 short tunes (1-3 minutes long), so I need to pick up the pace.
Again, quartal tuning on the top 3 unison pairs of the 12 string. I've been listening to Ralph Towner's Blue Sun, hence the title.
I read in the newspaper about an 82-yr-old woman in Houston who got arrested for growing seven marijuana plants in her back yard. The song almost wrote itself.

Lyrics:
Old Country Songs
Wooden Chair by the window
Gibson on my lap
And the time I spend strumming
Is never coming back
The sun is shining on me
Evening won’t be long
I’m living in the city
Singing…
In one part I harmonized the E Phrygian intro with G Mixolydian, thought that was kinda neat. In the original tune I like the lyrics: "I am not a sailor, I am a captain, I am a captain." Electric guitar kicks in around the half way point.
So after hearing some of Stephen Krell's outstanding picking, I asked him if he'd like to play along with any of my songs... I can't be happier with the one he picked to add his banjo to (seeing as how the song is written about my favorite Pete…
Poor Reg's mate Ronald lost his job in the Government cuts now this whole world is caving in..... he has the bailiffs pounding at his door and he can't take anymore........he has lost his pension....soon to lose his house ......he's already lost…
Well....the lead in the background and the main is done by a vocal Fx ......no guitars were harmed ......the rest of the music was my trusty M-audio Pro keys ......i sent it over to the other Reg as an example of what i wanted him to do with…

Sectacular, guitar work supporting an ironic low key vocal. Great one man one guitar sound.
Good song John! You really get some nice sounds out of that guitar! Greg

I remember watching doves flying around Checkpoint Charlie back in the 70's.
Great lyrics.
The theremin sounds are a nice effect.
Very nice.
Hilarious. Probably true.
Like this one Gene.
Soundin like Mississippi Fred McDowelll on this one.
There's more old drunks than there are old doctors.
After years of med school they still call it practising medicine.
Don't step on the grass,Sam.
