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…
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…
Mode ?? Marvellous Greg , you have this fantastic knack of writing a song that you just have to listen too ... then Love ... then listen to again ... and love again ... simple isn't it ... NO ?!?!?

Cool sounds and fabulous lyrics. Over the last few days I've been sharing this very message in various forms in various places... That's probably why I like it so much... And I've come across others saying the same thing... It might not be filtering through to the media (at least not the stuff I'm seeing/hearing)... but then it's not very news-worthy! ... But if there's a bunch of us ordinary people thinking and saying this and similar... then I'm feeling quite encouraged :)
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.

I left my home in paradise when warning signs begun
With a member of my aging family
I left behind the trees so tall they almost blocked the Sun
And a lake so big it looked just like the sea
The wind blows cold through paradise in winter…

Oh yeah. What a song. Paints all sorts of images/stories in my head. But yeah, I end up yearning for the Paradise I recall myself... Faved, accidentally unfaved, and FAVED again! (Got a bit clicky there lol)

I wrote this song earlier this week, and reached out to the wonderful Greg Connor and SL Krell here to help me with the lead, rhythm and bass guitars to give it a nice country love song feel. They killed it!!!!!! Thanks to them both for making…
I uploaded this tune several years ago. The other day I found the track was truncated,and when I tried to replace it, that didn't work. Well, anyway, since then I've redone all the vocals and remixed & remastered the tune, so I just blew away…
I got a message from *SLKrell* to stop and take a listen to this.
Well Done!
This is one of those old familiar songs that I have never heard before. It just feels like an old friend, even though it's the first time I've heard it.
Now i'm gonna get out there and get me some sun......
Summertime In The Sunshine
lets make hay while the sun shines
lets get out there today
it’s Summer time so lets get out there and play
summer time in the sunshine
summer time in the…
I was meant to working on a collab...but i got lost....
I got a different way
somebody told me that this is the way
the individual no longer has a say
But i gotta dream i’m gonna change this crazy scene
i tell you now there ain’t no more…
another little doodle....
I JUST WANT TO ROCK N ROLL
all i want from life is too feel like i’ve lived
the day they bury me i want to feel like theres nothing left
while theres life in these bones i’m gonna nothing but live
i want to rock…
This one is dedicated to my dear friend John. Thanks for changing my life for the better....
Also a big thanks to our own Greg Connor who helped me get the chords for my own uke accompaniment, and who kindly played the beautiful guitars…
This is a meditative piece for solo flute. It is extremely calming and peaceful. It was originally created as an experiment to see if I could create a high quality piece of music using only basic equipment and free software. It worked!
This is a meditative piece for solo flute. It was created using only free software. It does a lot with only a few effects (reverb and delay).This piece is great for calming down and finding peace. Enjoy.
This is my first collaboration with the talented SLKrell! He had a reggae song called "Rancho Raggae" posted a couple of weeks ago in need of a lyric, so I asked If I could write some for it, and poof whala!! Here it is! Thanks Slkrell for the…
I wanted to get this happy little tune out before I unleash a new experimental heavy psych rock project.
I needed a break from the distortion :) So I decided cheesy horns and woodwinds are always fun.
If you want to use it, feel free.
Email…
I like the earthy quality of this....
Second time through, I'm noticing the great lyrics and the two part harmony even more.
I like the acoustic version a lot, but this begs for an electric guitar set on fire. Maybe you need two versions of this song.
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Straight out of Mayberry RFD. Great picture song.

Ahhh Summer . . . Go get it while you can!
This is beautiful
I can picture those big things ambling along to the music.
This gets the rebel (or what's left of it) in me stirring.
Good Rebel Anthem
I love the Ukulele and the heartfelt lyrics. Isn't it fun when things work out for the better?
Sounds like a fun and successful experiment.
Calming and tranquil
This is really beautiful.
Oooooooooooooooo! Gets my feet tapping!
Yes, that's very happy music. I can see using it in a variety of ways.
