What’s on your mind
Are you losing confidence
Someone’s been unkind
And caring becomes a consequence
Look for a reason to smile
The Sun will shine your way
Look for a reason to smile
And watch the clouds drift away
Feeling like you…

Nice, a little Beatle sounding which is a good thing to me!! I like the way you double tracked your voice..at least that's what it sounds like..... did you sing it twice or just used computer magic?
love it!!

Mighty cool - and very clever - song. We've all met one when we didn't need or want to... and... er... I strongly suspect I've done it to others myself!!

And waves collide with the shore
The sailor must be watching
For gusting wind we can’t ignore
Loose the main, correct the healing
Point the bow to the wind
Recognize the peaceful feeling

It’s like floating down a river
When you’re not quite in control
That river’s going to take you
Only where it wants to go
So you reach out with conviction
At debris along the way
That river’s going to take you
If you give up and say…
My wife Rita mentioned that she had not heard my dulcimer on any music recently, so I tuned it up and wrote First Morning Light. A little Low D Irish Whistle flavored it just a bit.

That guitar sound is amazing. How is this recorded. Every element is crystal clear. Your voice too. 'There's a row boat in the distance,,," So suggestive of more than meets the ear...
Psychedelic Folk. Ever meet that special someone in a laundromat? Ever do it on top the dryer? Either way, you’re sure to dig this clean groove. Compilation by Stephen L. Krell and Gene Eric Mann.

You never say, "Quit"

You're not a pup

HEAR MY FINAL SONG

Two were dancin', one he played guitar
He was singin' how she broke his heart
Some were smokin', smoke rings filled the air
One was flirtin', playin' with her hair
He was…
One day as I was turning into my driveway I saw Rita on her porch. She's a lot like me.
AL & RITA Capo @2 in C
C stepping down to F
Al was a smoker. He's dead now, of course
Al has Alzheimer's. Alcohol made it worse
D stepping down…
This a primer melody for this lyric, so feel free to tweak it ( for the collaboration four)<>>.The transmission started slipping on the way home from work today...Man I sure could stand a little raise in pay. no talking about saving for…

I'd been following the Euro horsemeat scandal since it broke in the UK some time ago. But the songwriter in me didn't react until Ikea found pony in their Swedish meatballs the other day.

It has been a salty year for me, performing with a great sea shanty group in Saint Petersburg. I've written a number of sea songs this year, and this one especially for the 2014 holiday season.
Sorry, to post just a clip here, but I've released…

Oh, listen to my story, and I'll tell you no lies
How John Lewis did murder poor little Omie Wise
He told her to meet him at Adams's Springs
He would bring her some money…

Wow . . . I had to strap myself in, just to hold on. Excellent start to the new year!
Great way to start the New Year
Ah . . . Good Times!
Now the blood is pumping!
Short and Sweet. Good message.
Very Smooth! Let's hope the new year comes in that way too!
*AND NOW THAT I'M LOGGED IN* . . . . . It looks like I have accidently added a little humor as well.
Sad and beautiful at the same time. A good look into the lives we lead.
I love this! I wish I had heard it before we put the other version up. I completely missed it until now.
It will be fun to hear when the other parts come in. Merry Christmas Gene!
I just toured your website. Wow . . . That's an impressive life.
*Smiling*. By the end of this.
I had to stop by for another taste of this.
*Oh* . . . . . . This is good! You hit the spot with this one.
Ahhhhhhhh . . . Now I'm in the Christmas Spirit!
Pretty Song!
Nice beat. Interesting texture to the song.
Ahhhhhhh . . . . I've missed you.
Just found this! What a treat!
Excellent! Well done to both of you! Great story.
