Old Country Songs
Wooden Chair by the window
Gibson on my lap
And the time I spend strumming
Is never coming back
The sun is shining on me
Evening won’t be long
I’m living in the city
Singing…
I was anticipating 3 times as much, 4 times as much... but then, you know, the mark of a true artist is knowing when to stop. Twice as much is enough for any man I guess.
all I can say is "oooo". Another good one, Greg. I think that you could've added some of your famous head shaking, though... right after the part about all your charms.

River run away with me
I got my paddle in my hand
Take me far away from here
Take me to the sea
Take me somewhere I don’t know
Take me where the water goes
Start out fast, then go slow
Closer to the…

The most beautiful, gorgeous Sea Shanty I've ever hear. So haunting, chilling, gripping... I'm in awe. The instrumentation, the melody -- you're a marvelous talent. Too real! Wow -- just wow!

This is a mess but when we tried to clean it up it killed the spirit of it so we decided to just take off our critics hat and just enjoy the energy of it.
FOREVER by James Michael Taylor
My baby say she loves me. Gonna love me forever…
Another old one. I sort of call it my 'Ram' moment !!! As if !! Anyway, I can remember I wrote this 3 or 4 weeks after my mother passed away. Yeh, I know, a strange song to write, I like to think I was celebrating her life. She was a great Mum…
trance acoustic
All the recording/looping/synth were done on my iphone, using Loopy and Animoog app. Some post processing in Logic. The 12 string is tuned to C6.
This track is from the 1986 Scartaglen album "The Middle Path". The first tune "Jezaig" was composed by Breton musician Gilles Le Bigot. The second tune is one of the "Cantigas de Santa Maria" and is attributed to King Alfonso X of Spain

I stopped back for another listen this morning! "The Minstrel Show" goes good with a cup of Coffee.
I noticed the '39 Ford. My Dad used to have one. I remember sitting on the bumper with my shotgun as he drove it down the dirt roads in the evening. We always got a couple grouse for dinner that way. I was probably around 10 years old.
A remake of an old song, this is my version as I wrote it. Going to get the Good wife to record her version. Fight, Fight !!! Looking back Imspired of course by the Good wife, also we had just saw The Jersey Boys on stage at the West End. What…

Yesterday Rick Babb came over to Fort Worth
to deliver some production stuff to the concert hall
to be used by Ricky Nelson's twin sons during their
performance. We had dinner together and he came over to the
house to kill some time until…
Another gem. You got me laughing.
Sometimes we're our own worst enemy. Sometimes we just need a little short term pleasure.
I like your optimism! ( it's not if . . it's when )

Reminds me of one of those sparklers on the 4th of July. Good One James!
Roger . . . You might have to start practicing if you want to keep up with Fran!
Good message Terry! I have to confess though, I was thinking about the last "Hot Dog" picture you sent me, while I was listening to your new song.
Great message, and good positive vibe, wrapped in an enjoyable melody. Nice one Roger!
"One too many beers"? No No No Just the right amount of fuel. You nailed it!
. Nice riffs and fantastic guitar tone!
. . . Beautiful . . . Hypnotic . . .
Outstanding Kirk! Beautiful work.
Nice one Billy! I stopped back for another listen, and added it to my "Good Friends and Company" Playlist (Favorites on AloneTone).

Good one Roger! You mentioned "Remake" but I don't believe I've heard it before.
I'm on my second listen. It's very interesting but totally unexpected. Something about it is very facinating. It might be the driving rhythmn.
This reminds me of when we used to play together. Sometimes I miss that.
I just found this! Buck , , , you are the Master. Absolutely beautiful.
I enjoyed that ... Nice Song.
!!! Excellent Excellent Excellent !!! First Class Guitar Playing, and Singing! I can't wait for the next episode.
Interesting idea! You found a great sound!
Great Springtime Song! Here is the Springtime Playlist: http://alonetone.com/connor/playlists/spring-time-various-artists
That's pretty darn good, especially for the situation you described. It's really fun that you caught it on tape.
