The Sun is shining tru the hole in my heart. I am lucky to be old and grey.
Don't ask a song writer to critique anything,
they may not have found a day job yet!!!!
Great writing I like it
Pretty mandolin. This is another one of my favorites of yours. I bet there are a few in that group might even tell Eric Clapton that his chords need to be simpler...this is lovely

Ooohhh.... I remember you playing this one around the coffee table once before. I love this one so much! I'm guessing this one is on your CD! I've got to go download that right now...
Found a interesting sounding indian instrument via the computer world and strummed out chords on my lil midi guitar. Added some percussion, strings and a flute.
Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.
January challenge songwriting fun...
WATER UNDER WATER
So near the surface
So near the end
So near the purpose
Time and again
Just barely breathing
I’ll need you when
I’m floating in the water under water
Holding on loosely
Without letting…
I suspect Part 3 is coming soon. I enjoyed the originality of this story/song concept.
Fun to listen to.
I kept thinking of my niece, a young and budding actress. I could see her and her friends performing this on stage.
You might have a new career waiting for you . . . Playwrite.
this is my take on Joe Bonamassa's version of Blind Faith's "Had To Cry today"
a much shorter version...just wanted to record that cool lick and am trying to work on my vocals ... oh well ..what a time to try to learn to sing at my age...63 next…
Another quick scratch take, had to edit out a weird little noise from when the keyboard fell onto the guitar, but otherwise one take, render and upload. This will probably undergo a whole lot of revision to get a more usable center section and…
Any resemblance to the Yiddish word Chutzpah is of the purest intent. With a doff of the hat to Sheldon Alan "Shel" Silverstein ...and Mad magazine for all of their influences. that indeed did rot my brain
This song written by Mark Imsdahl..I found it over at Greg Connor's ...I liked it so much that I asked Greg and Mark if I could do an electric version of it and they agreed...i want to have Mark blow some harp on it when he gets back from vacation…
What happened after too much time on youtube watching live vids of "voodoo chile" Noisy obnoxious and very cathartic for me! Live to 2tracks with the Jamman
A complete re-vamp of a 6 year old song. Sure I wrote the lyrics while on holiday in Majorca, rewrote a couple of lines, picked up me ole guitar last week & just played this tune & it all seem to fit. Could need a lay down now !!!!
For the grandchildren, when I get some!
Moonbee started life as a doodle, then he was turned into a little story, then a song!
This is Part 1 of the series - I have no idea how many there will be in total!
Enjoy! xox
P.S. This is…

I'm a teacher, a parent of elementary school children, a mental health advocate, and a pacifist. It's been a rough week... But there's still time.
TIME
Time to look in the mirror
Time to say what we believe
Is this the world we want…
first my apologies to J. Pachabell
second, my very best wishes to all my AT friends who make sharing music here so wonderful,, hope your holiday season is most wonderful and filled with love, peace to us all r
I sat watching Tom Jones on BBC4 this evening and thought i'd try and write him a song now i just have to find his management meet up with Tom sign a contract and get him to sing it then i should make a few bob...well it is Christmas you've gotta…
The cupboards, of this old house
Don't close like they used to
And your mother, is just as old now
Wouldn't you say
The lanterns, you hung in your teeth when you were young,
Still light up the room
Yeah it's true,
If anything is true
I wish…

Well ripple is fine but Boon county dime for dime makes a better time. Daddy got into Boon county again drunk on Ripple wine!
Awesome song guys!!! Reilly and I just listened and she loved it too. Sad I missed the coffee table session. See you soon. Colleen

It's a winner Roger! Just makes you feel good.
I like that sound of open tuned strings. Nice one Kavin!

Great way to convey what everyone is thinking . . . at least I hope we're all thinking that.
Stunning Work! Excellent.
