Now we have a song to describe the experienced, kinda like what Woody Guthrie did for us.
Your songs are always good Robert!
I uploaded this tune several years ago. The other day I found the track was truncated,and when I tried to replace it, that didn't work. Well, anyway, since then I've redone all the vocals and remixed & remastered the tune, so I just blew away…

Hi Robert,
I haven't experienced that problem of downloading automatically.
I have to say your songs are reaching a new level of professionalism. You are leaving the rest of us in the dust.

I recently retired and for the past 4 months I've been telling people "All that's left are the stories". There will be no more of the glamor and prestige.
When I saw the May songwriting challenge offered by Minnesota Homebrew Radio Show…

While wiring up a new FX processor in my studio I was messing around with this classic traditional sea shanty. Probably because at this time last week I was playing at the Harwich (UK) International Sea Shanty Festival. Anyway, while messing around…
This song is the result of exchanging "One Line Zingers" with my friend Tom last Saturday while playing a little music.
He challenged me to write a song about him and he would do the same at my expense.
The funiest song wins.

It's been raining all day so I've been playing with my recorder and a new Irish Whistle that arrived from Scotland yesterday.

Here is the latest Coffee Table Recording. We gave ourselves 2 1/2 hours to pick a topic, write the song, and record it. It was GREAT FUN!
I left the pre bantar in just so you could get a feel of the "mood of the room".

I'm having a déjá vu moment here. Is it possible I've heard a different version of a tune sometime? Or am I just suffering from campaign 2016 mind rot?
Comments on Robert Palomo's stuff
Hahaha! This has to be a true story.
Robert . . . I'm laughing over here! It's another bullseye! *Big Celine, My kinda gal*
That was so much fun my toes are damp.
Now that's telling it like it is!!! Love this. Awesome!!
This is so good Robert! I can feel every painful word.
I love it! *. . . . Been there / Done That . . . .* Now we have a song to describe the experienced, kinda like what Woody Guthrie did for us. Your songs are always good Robert!

I'm smiling and laughing all the way through! You certainly know how to capture the moment.

this is wonderful! I love the lyrics. Your voice is glorious!
FANTASTIC ROBERT! This is a great song! Impeccable production too!
Another good one, your vocals continue to mature. Here"s, a thought: how about a Greg Connor / Palomo collab. Uh hah !
Wow. I mean really wow.
Andres Russe: Rum is indeed an important ingredient. It's the main ingredient of this one: http://www.robertpalomo.com/port_royal_rum :-)
love your voice!!!!
Comments made by Robert Palomo
Ahhh crap - now my beer is all salty!!
Ha! Another one discovers that you can use banjo AND squeezebox and get away with it!!
Bloody birds! They do it every time.
Big clean transparent sound. Wish I knew how you do it. (Good blues tune too!)
Congrats on being able to retire. I probably never will. You got much more than stories left, sir. You got songs!
Nice use of 12-string acoustic.
Those acoustic guitars sound super.
@valsvil - Just me. No, I lied. There was also a bottle of rum involved.
Really nice production! You've obviously been to that joint a few times. Now what about a tune "Minnesota Mosquitos"?
Who the heck are you? Never saw the man before in my life, officer!
Uhm, right. That explains why James Taylor was such a flop. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUFwk1Ibwkc
I love it that you're doing mandolin. I want to do more with it myself but it is PAINFUL!! (Not to mention tuned in blasted 5THS!!
Love it. I get a total sense of how great that hiking is without having to throw my back out of joint schlepping a heavy pack, soaking my aching feet, or providing culinary delights for the Minnesota State Bird!
Another CLASSIC!!!!!
That's a fine soundin' mule you got there.
Been there. Nicely done. Had to replay this one.
Purty!
Dang... I just went thru a 3 hour session yesterday with a new trio and all we drank was tea. The 2 other guys ARE Brits... but still. Wine next time!

Reminds me of the night I was drunk and adrift in a longboat.
