That one is getting added to my collection of late night highway cruising tunes. Wish I'd had it when I used to drive all night between gigs in your general neck of the woods. Don't have that much use for the collection these days, but ya never know.
Here is a Steve Krell song.
Buck Erpestad and I recorded live using two acoustic guitars.
Here is a link to Steve's original version : http://alonetone.com/slkrell/tracks/saskatchewanshostalconnorkrell

This might be my favorite SLKrell song.
This is an impromptu version that Buck & I played with the tape rolling.
Here is the original version of the song:

I had fun singing this at the open mic this past week.
Originally written for a song writing challenge using the phrase *"Chicken Plucking Time In Petaluma"*
I've been teasing Steve (SLKrell) about Rose, from Las Cruces Nevada, ever since he wrote a song about her for Valentines Day a few years ago.
Rosie is a figment of our imagination. I wrote a song about stealing her away from Steve:

Just like two sides
Of the same silver dollar
We’re not alike but still the same
And your big life
Makes mine look smaller
I wonder if you know my name
I wait around
You might be calling
A telephone that never rings
End of the day…

The only music I can play in my living room these days is the odd lot of contemplative classical guitar, as anything else would wake up the family at night... :)

This is a guitar idea our friend Doug worked up for one of our Christmas songs. I'm posting it in case Amy gets a chance to listen from work. Hopefully we'll record a new, full version before Christmas!

I'm guessing that they weren't talking about your positive attributes.
Well ... there is nothing better than turning criticism into music. That's some beautiful piano playing.
Well Reg had an hour or so to himself today so he decided to let it go.......hope you have your Dancing slippers on you may want to shuffle to this one..........thats if the beat gets you.........it got me......

Hard rock song about losing faith....
Lyrics:
I'M GOING DOWN
Sedate it with barbiturates
Inject it with a needle
Calm this stirring anger
That I always feel
Lord, where are you
You've mocked my every prayer
Everything around…
Love song about strife in relationships....the song needs more work; gotta redo the vocals....nevertheless, I hope you enjoy it. Here are the lyrics:
Beyond the horizon,
The sun burns bright…
Cover of a 19th century minstrel tune attributed to S.S. Steele, popularize by the late great John Hartford. This is my own arrangement. I use it as a backing track for alive set without the banjo and lead vocal tracks.
BTW- that banjo is an…
come away, come away
away from trouble
away from care
come away, come away
away from sorrow
away from fear
may the cool wind find you

Not really Irish ... a Scottish ballad ...
An earthly nourris sits and sings
And aye she sings, "Ba lilly wean

Far less the land that he dwells in."
And up come he to her bed fit
A grumly guest I'm sure…

Where are you Bethan? Let's hear a little of your great voice.
Let us hope that love don't end. Ha ha!
Still and all time favorite of mine. Came by for a listen and a smile.
OMG! I just found this.... These lyrics are hilarious. You guys are the bomb :-)
Beautiful song.
...has a familiar feel - which is often a sign of a well written song. Nicely done.
Nicely done!
Dig this
Stunningly heartfelt.

Pretty! I like the sound of that classical guitar.
Wow, this is beautiful
I'm guessing that they weren't talking about your positive attributes. Well ... there is nothing better than turning criticism into music. That's some beautiful piano playing.
I like the way this bounces. Now that Norm has mentioned waffles, I'm getting hungry listening to this.
I certainly can relate to this one!
Very Philosophical You can learn something from everyone. I like your musical style.
I can really feel the grit in this one John! Nice song, short and sweet.
I like that: "Don't Save Your Kisses" Good advice
I think you have touched the melancholy side of things here. Very pretty.
That is some beautiful guitar playing.
Oh yes ... this hit the spot .... and just like Bethan, it's sweet with just the right amount of grit.
You gotta love a 19 second song. It's Right to the point.
Great Lyrics and Great Sound. This one is a lot of fun!
Great driving beat.
I like the chord change and upshift in the song. Good song.
Very pretty
That's some fancy picking Robert
Now that is a "Kick Ass" Lullaby!
You gotta love it.
This is so beautiful
