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!!

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...

I asked CaptGene for something funky, trusting that a fishing guide from Babsom Park would know exactly what I was talking about. He did. The Captain knows funk.
I used to have a link to his original version here, but that is no longer available…
Another cut from the 1988 cassette tape of a live performance by Scartaglen on the NPR show Mountain stage. This time some tunes from County Kerry.
Kirk Lynch- Uilleann pipes and whistle. Becky Pringle- Fiddle. Mike Dugger- Fiddle and guitar…
One of those progressions I can't get finished enough to call a complete song.In A.BTW if you load this to Audacity and seperate the stereo tracks,you can mute or delete the right hand track and add your own.
Ok, now this really is a tongue in cheek song. But, is it just me, or... are all politicians just a waste of space or just Rich & Sad. With no Life !!!
My contribution to this year's RPM Kitchen Challenge.
Very silly.
Well, can’t you see the baby’s crawling
And pulling up all by herself
I can’t imagine what will be falling
When she climbs up on the shelf
See how much she likes to…
The decending line is about the coolest musical concept. Ear candy,and it can be Major or minor scale.Love my effects,but there's no substitution for plain old technique.
Well played John! You are right, it tickles my fancy!
Does the decending (Or downward spiral) have anything to do with the Republicans heading toward Florida next week?
Sorry . . . I couldn't help but ask.
I posted this song a few days ago and Bethan liked the music so much she wrote her own words. Here it is, a co-write across the Atlantic.
SITTING BY THE WINDOW, NOTHING TO DO
WAITING FOR THE TIME WHEN THE SUN SHINES THROUGH
THE SUN SHINES…
Yes, I like this too!
It's good solid music, with interesting lyrics. In fact, here is what I left on Bethan's site:
LOVE IT!
I was hooked when I heard:
"not much fun when your gum's all gone"
That pretty much sums it up!
I met this Indian one night in Albuquerque.
I think he put something in my coffee.

Nice romantic song Terry . . . You old Softy!
"Nice to have a live one on the table" I love it!
Very different from what I'm used to, and very enjoyable!
Nice effective harmony, and such a pretty song.
Way to go Igor. You brought a little class to this joint!
I just stumbled across this today! E X C E L E N T
Sparse & Beautiful
I like the harmonica! Good Lyrics, especially when you get "kissed on the mouth by a wave". Now that is imagery I'm in the mood for traveling too.
Boy ... This is GOOD!
Excellent song to play while getting ready for work this Monday morning!
Nice playing, it really sets the mood.
Perfect timing for this song! We've been watching the Republican debates all with. It's called GOOD ENTERTAINMENT!
This fits right in with the Northern Lights this week! Fill Er Up Roger!
Neat sounds.
Nice original song Keith! Great lyrics. I like the tapping on the bottle too.
Well played John! You are right, it tickles my fancy! Does the decending (Or downward spiral) have anything to do with the Republicans heading toward Florida next week? Sorry . . . I couldn't help but ask.
Way to get your Yah Yahs off. My feet are tapping in snowy Minnesota.
Yes, I like this too! It's good solid music, with interesting lyrics. In fact, here is what I left on Bethan's site: LOVE IT! I was hooked when I heard: "not much fun when your gum's all gone" That pretty much sums it up!
Oh Yes ...... Great way to start the day! The blood is pumping now!
Roger, You certainly know how to get a groove on!
