Sometimes life tends to repeat itself if you're not careful.... Good to find a moment to recognize old patterns and shake them off.
Great help on this one from the MN Coffee Table Gang - Greg Connor on guitar and vocals, and Mark Lofgren…

I wrote this one yesterday. A little something to bring hope for the future.... there's always time to begin anew.
Thanks to Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren for their wonderful guitars and vocals on this one - recorded yet again around my kitchen…
Very nice song. I don't know you guys, but this song makes me think that your kitchen is probably an enjoyable place to just sit around. Thank you for the moment of calm.

A song I wrote over the last few days. Did a one-take-wonder on the recording, so it's pretty simple. Hope you like it!
Sometimes You Don't
Verse 1
Sometimes in the early morning hours
As the sun lights up the sky
I look back and think…
The other night I was sitting out watching a little fire in my backyard, and thinking about how useless it is to let the past dictate our present and future. This one is dedicated to all of us with relationships in our history that have no place…
Beautiful singing and great accompaniment!
I’m working my way—slowly—through your songs here and am taken with your clear, precise singing voice on every one. You put that ukulele to good use too.
Also, thanks for your kind words about my stuff the other day; it means a lot!
A little celestial inspiration for this song.... I started it and Greg and Mark helped me finish it and then record around my kitchen table. Feel free to howl if you like it!
Blood Wolf Moon
VERSE 1
Blood wolf moon this January…
In a world of what I hear as weird pop vocal affectations, your precise singing clear enunciation is refreshing to listen to. Nice guitars and ukulele on these songs too.
The Minnesota Association of Songwriters issued a writing challenge this January to "borrow" conceptually from a writer that has influenced our writing to create a new original work of our own. Once you hear this, I think you'll get the idea…
Beautiful! Great idea for a song. What a lovely melody. ps. thanks for your support. Glad I found your music too; it's all so gorgeous. Listening to the next one as I write this. :)
The coffee table gang helped me round out this one that I shared earlier. I love this version with Mark Lofgren and Greg Connor's wonderful talents on the backup vocals and guitars. I like how my ukulele blended in on this version.

I wrote these lyrics in response to the tragedy that happened in Paris this week and i put them up in a response to a song by Geo's (Dobrodaddy) track in memory of slain innocence and Geo responded with voice and guitar, i added a backing vocal…
This version was an effort to make it into a country song... an "effort."
Florencia Di Concilio is a composer who lives in Paris. Among other things, she writes music for movies. One of the movies she wrote music for is DARK BLOOD, the last…
i had some free!! time today to make some noise so i did and ruined a perfectly good song with bad drumming bad guitar and bad vocals ….now i’ve sold it to you enjoy Happy New year…I’m off out on the piss!! see you later ….Maybe????/
This is my first upload. I mostly have a vocal here. It's a song that I'd love to get some collaboration on from the guitarists in the community. Let me know what you think?

Thanks Gene for the kind words!!! Great to meet you here, and I wish you the best here during this challenging time. Music can sooth a weary body, that's sure.

I did this as a way to practice singing....why I am trying to learn to sing at 64 is a little strange.... I wish I had leaned to sing when I was starting out..but I always played in band with lots of singers and never had to sing much…

Such pathos. Your voice captures the sadness so well... Sometimes you don’t feel the love until you’ve lost it..."
