Nice acoustic sound. I like the vox

I like the dour strumming and the dark vox

Very nice! You capture the emotion of this song and it comes across so well Tom.

Thanks, Steve! It was fun trying to make the two guitars work and I'm glad the enjoyment extended beyond just me.

Great song and performance Tom. Vocals good and enjoyed the two guitars : )

@theproods I'm very glad to hear that you're out there supporting some of the artists who inspired me so much!

I purchase the songs you sing.

Glad you enjoyed it, Steve! I had some fun with this one. ;)

Nice acoustic cover, your voice and guitar strips the song back and gives it some soul!

Melancholic but engaging and beautiful at the same time

...you pretty much just described my life @fudetusk

Thanks @fudgetusk! By the way, that gum you like is going to come back in style.

@fudgetusk: Thanks for the kind words!

@fudgetusk Thanks for the kind feedback; I've really enjoyed my ten years here and I'm hoping for at least ten more!

Thanks, Steve! Atmosphere and emotion are definitely what I'm going for here!

Impressive cover Tom! Great atmosphere and emotion shows through here. Very nice!

My aunt gifted me a 12 string guitar for Christmas and so I had fun trying it out for this song; I'm glad it turned out okay. As always, thanks for listening and for the encouraging words, Steve!

Nice cover Tom. I think your voice is great for this song. Great sound!

I'm glad to hear that what I recorded turned out sounding authentic. That "heart on my sleeve" vibe was definitely what I was going for. Thanks for the kind words, Steve!

Like this a lot. You express the feeling very convincingly and bring the words to life. Great!

Thanks, Anna! As you might guess, I'm also a big fan of the minimalism of solo acoustic music. That kind of music is what inspired me to pick up a guitar in the first place.

Thanks, Steve! It's a song I covered from the "Pulp Fiction" soundtrack and I thought its vibe worked well for the new mic/guitar setup I'm trying out.

This song is a nice reprieve from all the "doom and gloom" this month has visited upon many of us. I definitely found myself tapping along with the beat and doing some air guitar (when no one was looking)! Fun stuff, Steve!

High praise comparing this song to John Lennon - he's a huge influence on me and so I'm quite honored...and I think this song turned out pretty well under the circumstances (I sang it following the US election). Glad you enjoyed it and, as always, thanks for stopping by to listen!

I'm not sure if you purposely did this (the title of your song suggests it was purposeful), but it sounds like used the first 30 seconds of Aerosmith's "Walking the Dog" to cook up something new and interesting. Cool stuff!

Thanks, Dok! While I didn't write this song, I appreciate the sentiments of this song too. It works on (at least) two levels: one level is the obvious Ram Dass reference while the other is about loving another. Btw, I'm looking forward to hearing more of your stuff!

Thanks, Dok! I know my style isn’t for everyone, so I do appreciate that some of what I post here resonates with you and that you keep coming back to listen.

@TheProods: As always, thank you for stopping by to listen and to give encouragement; I really appreciate it!

I kinda figured the "Empire Builder" comment was yours, Dok, but didn't want to assume anything! And thank you for the warm words for "Lemon Grove Ave." Cool to have folks like you listening and appreciating what I'm playing!

@Guest: Thanks for the kind words! I always try to go with songs that I can imagine a live audience listening to, so it's cool this song was received that way.

It's like Syd Barrett joined Guns N' Roses for a day to rewrite (and sing) their song "Coma." Cool stuff!

Tapping my toe to the rhythm guitar on this one - you're definitely onto something here!

Thanks, Dok! I appreciate the appreciating!

Liking the guitar on this one!

Thanks @doktordoktor! I think you definitely picked up what I was going for on this one. Cool to have the final product received in the way I intended.

Thanks, Colleen! I'm surprised that people are enjoying this one because it is so casually done. I guess it goes to show that simplicity is often the best route.

Sounds like something off an 80s John Carpenter soundtrack. Very cool!

@doktordoktor - Thanks! I know my voice isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, so I appreciate the feedback. Keeps me motivated to keep playing, recording, and singing.

Thanks so much for stopping by to listen and provide encouraging words, @peppermintsky! I feel like you've been listening to my stuff longer than almost everyone here, so I feel honored that you keep coming back to listen.

Thank you for the kind words, @Eshar!
