Here's a song that battled me for quite awhile... so I am glad to say I've gotten it recorded. Still rough from my home studio, but trying out a few additional things on my keyboard to round out the sound around the ukulele. Thanks for listening…
I see I left you a comment yesterday while I was not signed in. I was on Park Point waiting for the lift bridge to come down.

Just got my system up again after several hardware upgrade conflicts, and a move to California.

Beautiful with descriptive imagery. Nice song.
Heartfelt and reflective story telling accompanied by 12 string. Beautiful.

Beautiful !!! Whatever you are doing, it sounds fantastic. Listening to your lyrics . . . . I think I'd like to meet these Cape Cod Girls.
Not bad for taking the Summer off and catching up with each other after almost 3 months.
Oh Baby! Great Lyrics, Good Singing, Nice bounce, A little Harmony, A touch of Lament & Reflection and a handsome backup band! That was fun!
Now . . . That's what I'm talking about!
