Oh ..... this makes me proud. You guys are great party animals.
Listen to this; ukulele, slide guitar, organ, great vocals. It’s like we used to do in college when we filled the bathtub with all the booze.
Well it's been a long while (as seems to be the pattern lately) and I was inspired by Greg and Ron's new songs.... Then I saw a lovely note from the Proods saying "I must have been writing during this crazy time" - so I had to respond with something…

Yup just keeping to our selves and getting a real handle on our spring to do list. Very tired of my cooking and looking forward to all of us being well.
You made short work of another excellent tune, my joy to know you

I wrote this song while out hiking some awesome trails in Zion National Park... gave me some excellent inspiration. I also tried some different stuff with the mixing and using my keyboard... so trying to push a few of my envelopes...

“Jangle Balls” written, recorded, and mixed by W. Ng on December 16-17, 2023, for December’s 30 Day Songs challenge (30daysongs.com).

This one is short and to the point. Dedicated to those with with guts to fly in the face of conformity and live their best life. I try but it's hard to detox after all these years. Recorded as part of the August 2022 RPM - Record Every Month challenge…
Been out of socket music wise. The dentist wanted to redo all my teeth. A new smile in one day my ass. Took over a year. Just now getting to where I can half-way sing and blow my harp. The song? Sorta explains itself.
If this sounds like it was recorded in a single take on a $7 USB microphone, and then cheesy audacity reverb thrown in, that's because it was.
The old guitar and its player are both on their last legs, but unpacking after a move it beckoned…
It's too bloody cold to go out today so I picked up the guitar and this came out ....Thanks for listening

What a delightful and peaceful song! I can picture you enjoying a quiet morning there in your pretty spot. And love the hint of the whistle at the end! Or was that a real bird?
Reg has been reading the papers again, it always brings him down, but this time he can't carry on looking the other way and ignoring the news and the facts that the life, the freedoms he holds dear are slowly being dissolved not just by his government…
Inspired by a huge Cottonwood tree I found washed up along the Mississippi River near Red Wing MN.

Its snowing so nothing can be done on the garden so why not go down the cellar and have a ponder...and of course get Edie the acoustic out and let her join in with the pondering...Thanks for listening
We hear no evil
we listen the news…
Total inspiration for me this morning! The snow is also coming down here in MN, USA and I don’t think it’s ever going to stop this season. This song captures exactly the challenges we are all facing. Self seeking politicians seem to be everywhere these days! Great stuff!!
Lovely to work with the talented Ms Daulby again...she had asked for a version of this super Beverly Craven classic and I was happy to oblige! Thanks to 13111y for his usual excellent tweaking and mastering......
Were you guys aware that I'm a Beatles fan? Because, well.... I am.

A large portion of this record was written with my friend Wilsun in mind. If anything, this is an album to amuse him. To ensure I achieved that goal, I tried to write a song that reminded me of "Life In A Northern Town", although it actually…
I had an hour or so this evening as the wife had a friend over I disappeared down the cellar and started to think about my old man he's been gone now twenty one years and how in his old age when I used to go and see him I'd find him sitting pondering…

Oh ..... this makes me proud. You guys are great party animals. Listen to this; ukulele, slide guitar, organ, great vocals. It’s like we used to do in college when we filled the bathtub with all the booze.
