When you C reach the Em point
When it’s F all in the rear view C mirror
And Am reflection is your G only point of C view G
You C feel it Em inside
When it F becomes so C clear
There’s Am nothing that G you can C do
F Hold on to G memories…

Empty Bottles…
I had myself a dream last night
As I tossed and turned in bed
The window was open wide
The street noise jangled, in my head
.
I was dreaming of a better time
It was all so clear to me
Wind whistled through the pine trees…

Found this little chappie while I was preparing my latest original for loading.
It was a quick demo recorded on my Boss Micro BR sometime in October or so last year (2011) while I was working on Shine.
It was a sort of "blow the cobwebs out…
New original from me, hot off the old wotsit.
When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…
Refreshing new sound. It's nice to hear an acoustic guitar, and the harmonies are really nice.
And the message . . . well . . . you old softy! Well done.
A bit of comic relief is good when you have some writers block. I had he song mapped out years before I recorded it. I need to record its companion "Won't you please squeeze my udder Farmer Joe?".
So MTC put out [this wonderfully sparse instrumental piece](http://alonetone.com/mtcband/tracks/shadow-of-myself) and a vocal line just jumped out at me. Then some harmonies jumped out as well.
The harmonies are fantastic, but it's the complete package that caught me.
It's as if you both knew the end result before you ever started.
Excellent . . . Just Excellent

From a few years back. Bill Pohl, Darrin Kobetich and I playing in the lounge at the Ridglea theater, in Fort Worth, Tx. Our first performance as "Strung, Drawn and Quartered". Notable because of my first use of live looping.

Third time through . . . I'm still laughing!
I hardly recognized the old gal from the lyrics I sent. She's all grown up now.
"Ronnie Cream Cheese" has a way of doing that to the ladies.
Destine to be a Classic.
You have created a very thought provoking song. Well done Terry!
People have hidden behind religion to do unquestionable things for centuries, and the other guy is always the vilian.
I was going to put this on here tomorrow morning but knowing i'll be dead to the world i thorght i'd better put it on now before i get started ha ha ha!
I usually play bottleneck Dobro in Open D tuning.
This is much more melodic than that old Dobro screaching away like a couple of crows on a fencepost.
I pulled out my Low D Irish whistle and played along with you this morning.
Very nice music Paul.

I wrote this song after reading the book, Immanuel's Veins by Ted Dekker. At the end of the story the main character recalls the first verse of a hymn. I looked it up on the internet and learned that it is a hymn by an Englishman, William Cowper…
This was the first in this set of 3 songs I am posting. I was gaining alot of inspiration from the likes, of Justin Currie and Jackson Browne at the time.
Recorded using Reaper DAW & Jamstix virtual drummer software.
This is an ode for a good friend of mine that had took his own life at the end of last year. I was in the midst of writing some other songs and it stopped me in my tracks. I just wrote basically how I felt about this tragic ending to a very special…

Well played. After reading your notes I've decided to be nicer to you. Just kidding.
Refreshing new sound. It's nice to hear an acoustic guitar, and the harmonies are really nice. And the message . . . well . . . you old softy! Well done.
Refreshing. I like the sound of an acoustic guitar, and I really like the sound of acoustic and electric combined. Nice
I like the lead in and a little levity is always a good thing.
Suspenseful and Interesting. M O R E W I N E
The harmonies are fantastic, but it's the complete package that caught me. It's as if you both knew the end result before you ever started. Excellent . . . Just Excellent
I stopped by for my morning chuckle. I wonder if you have ever considered psychoanalysis?
Interesting music. You have some facinating sounds and textures going on here.

Good Lyrics, and good stomping music. I like the whistling.
I remember those days. Let's hope,at least in my case, the morning after stays a distant memory. Good foot stomper!

This really trucks along. I really enjoyed the bass line.
Well Said / Good Message It reminds me of a specific SOB. I had the misfortune of crossing his path.
That was Fun!
B E A U T I F U L
I feel like I just found a quarter on the sidewalk. What a great find. Thanks for making my morning.
"Afterall" has a great swing to it. You really put this one together well.
Nice tribute to an old friend.
