This was a write it and record it in one session song challenge that my songwriting friends and I came up with this week. Lions and Lambs was started thinking of spring, but it turned into a song about relationships... as they often do.

This is my second piece for the RPM challenge... And it's a big milestone for me... the first time I ever played my own instrument along with it! It's rough, but you gotta keep trying and start somewhere, right? Greg Connor... you'll understand…

I agree with Greg -- it is indeed like Paul's recording was made for you. The lyrics ROCK! I dig the mix own of multiple vocal tracks -- great job. Gonna play it again right now!

another afternoon of rain .....
Its dark outside and the wind does howl
The rain is coming up through the ground
Down on my knees I’m Partitioning the lord
To save me through these dark times please once more
Dark is night as black as…

The Other Side of Love
How long have you wandered
Between the night and day
And taken all the love that just
Came your way
But…
I'll Tell Me Ma is a folk song in the Irish tradition. I recorded it with acoustic instruments, multiple vocal tracks, and spoons for the main percussion, to give it that kitchen party feel!
I did it in the key of C. Not exactly normal, but…
How was Reg to know she was a plant....
Sexy Suzie
Its told sexy Suzie knows the story way to well
She looks you in the eye and your under that spell
The mystery of the meeting disappears from your mind
How could such a beauty ever be unkind…
I wrote this song after planting and fertalizing a crop of sudan grass just to have the sun shine down with no relief on it for 100 days and no rain. We, Texas Water, were heading home one night AFTER A GIG at Gringo's in Grapevine when the…
I’m going down
To the ground
Half a step
Then look around
I make an unsettling sound
Devil in the details
Music is the thing
The flatted fifth
Makes a diabolic ring
I'm sick of those wise guys that lead us ....
Wise Guys
I tell you I want something I need it right now
Something to take me whey up above the clouds
I want to get high I want to learn how to fly
So I can get away from all these wise guys…

Nice early 80s touch.. Enjoying stuff like this at the most. Great synth
One of my favs. You did a wonderful vocal melody for this tune. This song JAMS!
Ah . . . It's this song that Paul remixed. It has a little more reverb on your voice. It mixes with the music perfectly.
Is this the song that Paul remixed? It sounds good.
I agree with Greg -- it is indeed like Paul's recording was made for you. The lyrics ROCK! I dig the mix own of multiple vocal tracks -- great job. Gonna play it again right now!
