Too many rainy days lately, so what is a boy to do? Write a song!

I read all the lyrics before I had a chance to listen. Excellent poetry indeed. I wanted to know where you were finding that peaceful road. Somewhere north I’m guessing. Great melody and lovely arrangement. Another instant fav!!!

Great for this snowy day! Really great tune (harmonica!) and I needed these lyrics. Great coming back to find your songs - you've been productive! Well done.
You are on a roll!! Love it!! been listening to your new album...really like it...Satisfaction Is a State of Mind and Sweet Relief are 2 of my favorites!!
Excitement is one of ten songs on my new album "Treasures". The album covers a list of 10 words describing different characteristics of ENJOYMENT. The words are:
Love, Joy, Happiness, Relief, Contentment, Amusement, Pride, Excitement, Satisfaction…

Oh Greg! What a cool concept for your album. I love the swingy vibe of this one. Great lyrics and now it’ll be my ear worm for the day. Thanks!!!! Can’t wait to check out the whole album.

Oh it caught me by surprise
I Looked into your pretty eyes
Nothing more than a simple kiss
And a moment like this
We don’t need no fancy cars
Diamond Rings that shine like stars
You never really asked for more
Than moments…
I wrote this song 5 years ago and have recorded a new version of it every year since (I think). This version features a Baritone 8 String guitar and Mandolin.

We've always adored this song, there is another version but decided to re-record it. Now I think the Good Wife sounds quite good, when I think of the crap health problems she endured over the last 4 years. I am bias of course !!!! Lastly apologies…
This song has been sat on the marvellous mechanical mouse organ in the broom-cupboard for well over a year.
A few weeks ago I got a bit of a scare - the mouse organ nearly broke down (in the middle of sorting out Delta Dawn). While I was fixing…
One I wrote about 5 or 6 years ago, very different to the old version. It came about because of the shameful treatment of the soldiers coming back injured from that S**t hole of a country by the British Gov. They were forced into doing much more…

This is another GHOST OF JOHN MURPHY piece from the VOICES CD...
DIAMOND - Monster Wave
It started with an earthquake half a mile below
Belching like a bull whip to make the water blow
Monster in the making, Frankenstein unchained
Gravity…
A tune for Halloween.
I wanted to do something creepy. It works.
All Alone
I turn your knob
and throw Spot a bone
I palm your panties
when your not home
I turn the lights off
and cut your phone
I feel your fears
when you all…
Song by Nick Plagakis
Lyrics:
I don’t care for love and happiness
I got myself a yacht and a mansion
I don’t believe in God and religion
I got myself sixty four billion
Greed, greed, greed is what I need
Greed, greed, greed is what…
You have some great lines here . . . *Got Myself A High Priced Honey"*
Judging from the headlines in the news lately I think I might have a hint where the inspiration for this song came from.
Well done Nick!
This is one of the many songs going round my head from when I was young. No idea whose version I heard and used to sing along to back then, but it was written by Larry Collins and Alex Harvey.
(EDIT: Done some research. It was Dottie West's…
OK, I'm hooked. I just hit the replay button again.
Great vocal synergy between the two of you, and the resonator guitar . . . well . . . it just brings it over the top.
Asthma is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. In other words, they don't know what's causing it. And haven't been able to come up with a cure either.
- to princess...
And now for something completely different...
Well, friends, I think I may have over-banjo'd myself the past 3 years. It's not abandoned totally or permanently, but since the weather turned I've been feeling the need to turn to something else…
Every Single Time
You just make me smile.
It would be fun to meet you sometime. My wife says we're done flying, so next time we drive to Europe, will stop by.
Ok I need a lay down now. Been meaning to revamp this for years, still in DADGAD tuning, original sounded to much of a dirge, come to think of it, hope this don't !!!!!!
First things first, many, many thanks to Greg for adding Bass and a Great Harp break. Don't tell my mate Dave, my normal Harp buddy, he's been ill with Flu.
So, fast forwarding to one of my most recent tracks--with guitar, flute, bass and percussion. 9 years doing this and my style remains the same, layering of instruments around a melody. I hope you dig it
The struggle continues for the decent working folks to survive in a world run by "greed graft and corruption." which by a strange coincidence is the law firm that represents most of the enemy's.

Interesting bits of music! It will be fun to hear the finished result.
I don't know the original either, but I like this. Both of you sound *GREAT!*
Beautiful Andrew!
Interesting subject matter. The reality of war almost makes a person sick thinking about it. You put this together nicely though. A great tribute.
You sound a lot like my friend Gene! *Coincidence?* . . . . You got me chuckling this morning. Sincerely, *Justin Time*
I may have to download this to give the kids a chill tonight on Halloween! *WHO'S THERE ?*
*OMG* . . . You scared the Hell out of me!
I'm winking right back at you . . . *Birds of a feather*.
