This was a song I wrote last year, and haven't recorded until last night. We had a jam session at my place, so you'll hear some folks you know on this live recording.. Feels like a old time sing-a-long as I listened again this morning.

*GREAT Fresh Approach*
I love it! The vocal on this is top notch, and the accompaniment is right there with it.
Oops . . . . I pressed *REPLAY* again.
If I'm not mistaken, this is Paul's 4th time around recreating this song . . . . That just tickles me!

This was part of the 'who knew' song challenge, recorded live at Colleen Dillon's on 12-09-15, with Greg Connor on guitar. Love his part, didn't edit out anything, even left the comments on the beginning and end.

a.k.a. "The Ballad of Big Celine"
What ever happened to ballads - stories told in song? The internet and TV have reduced attention spans, and long songs a la Don McLean, Harry Chapin, and Gordon Lightfoot have fallen by the wayside. If you…
Wrote this song yesterday after another long week of crummy news in the world and had the good fortune of the Minnesota song writers in my living room tonight to help me bring it to life. Greg Connor - on the cigar beat box, Colin Walterson on…
I love your vocal harmonies. These are great lyrics!! (I always wanted to be Madonna too! Desperately Seeking Susan hooked me for good). Great song you wonderful Proods!!! A total instant fav!
I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…
Recorded live at my friend Colleen's studio in the clouds with Scott on the mandolin, Greg on guitar, Collin on bass, Colleen on ukulele. Thanks for a fun challenge!
This is a rough cut, but I like it. Here are the lyrics:
TOMORROW WILL BE YOU
It’s been a long time since I saw you
I’m at a loss for words
But when I heard the news
I went straight to your room
There’s no point in looking…
Gene sent me over this great backer and i tried to fill the vocalists shoes......this is one of two different mix's the other is over on Songcrafters ........Thanks Gene

So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…
This song's going on 32 years old...
Some 12 years older than I was when I wrote it!!

This is really a cool song... some essence of Bowie coming to me. Your vocals are really haunting. In times where we're listening and giving accolades in this digital media, know that your music brings us all together! Although I will admit to a fantasy of bringing all us alone toners together live for the funnest jam session ever! Thanks for this great song!!! An instant fav
