Lyrics:
Old Country Songs
Wooden Chair by the window
Gibson on my lap
And the time I spend strumming
Is never coming back
The sun is shining on me
Evening won’t be long
I’m living in the city
Singing…
I was anticipating 3 times as much, 4 times as much... but then, you know, the mark of a true artist is knowing when to stop. Twice as much is enough for any man I guess.
all I can say is "oooo". Another good one, Greg. I think that you could've added some of your famous head shaking, though... right after the part about all your charms.

Lyrics:
River run away with me
I got my paddle in my hand
Take me far away from here
Take me to the sea
Take me somewhere I don’t know
Take me where the water goes
Start out fast, then go slow
Closer to the…
(Em) A legend that the sailors told
Tales shared from long ago
(C) Secrets that are captured in the (Em) air
(Em) It comes to you from far way
Whispered roars that fade away
(C) Answers that are carried on the (Em) breeze
Only (C) heard…

The most beautiful, gorgeous Sea Shanty I've ever hear. So haunting, chilling, gripping... I'm in awe. The instrumentation, the melody -- you're a marvelous talent. Too real! Wow -- just wow!

This is a recording from my i phone off my back deck at home in Mill Valley tonight. Everyone howls at 8 pm for 1 minute in solidarity for the healthcare providers during this pandemic with COVID 19. its been going on for over 2 weeks now…
KC - keys, guitar, bass, vocals & mix
It's 5 AM in the morning
I'm burning the midnight oil
There's coffee to stop the yawning
Just don't care about a recoil
I decide to take a walk
A starlit night in the park
I'm in the mood for…
This is a song that I wrote some years ago
I wasn't satisfied with the result and completely rerecorded it
KC
I woke up this morning, tried to get out of bed
My head was in a spin. Lord, I felt so bad
My hands were trembling, my knees…
One of the last songs we recorded before the lockdown
Hans Nooitgedagt Jr - drums
Bingsolex - lead guitar
Erwin B - bass, recording
KC - vocals, guitar, keys & mix
When you told me I was blind
It almost blew my mind
When you told…
(Remastered 22/10/2021)
I wasn't even sure the recording machine was still going to work after nearly five years... Certainly, bits of me don't work anymore... But, surprisingly, I got this done in 24 hours, start to finish... Strange old world…
Have you ever felt like it was YOU who were the problem? If you haven't, then you're missing out on one of the purest forms of self loathing that humanity has to offer. This is dedicated to the fine soul who actually did find something lovable…
I hope Brian (one of us Proods) will forgive me for posting this before we could get together to work on it further. He first played it for me a few months ago and I've been obsessively tweaking it every chance I could get.
I like to imagine…
The other day I was having problems
So I called my son
Because he always helps me when I'm in trouble...
When the mouse can't see the dongle
The cursor is erratic.
There's something in the way
Move that chair
Hmh, maybe I Google it…
Well it's been a long while (as seems to be the pattern lately) and I was inspired by Greg and Ron's new songs.... Then I saw a lovely note from the Proods saying "I must have been writing during this crazy time" - so I had to respond with something…
Well the virus has my friend and music partner in Krakow Poland sheltering in place but we are using the time to write and record..here is our latest...we tried to write in the style of Motown...check it out ... all music and production by Art…
CALIFORNIA
Capo @ 4 in C/Am
I’m (Am) going back to California
A little place in the San (E) Joaquin
(Am, stepping down A G F# F E)
Where the back pasture builds
To Sierra foothills
And Kaweah tumbles down cool and clean
I’m going back…

This just sounds like fun.
This gets my feet tapping! Great Vocal supported by solid instrumentation. It's fun to hear you again!
Excellent song for the time! Very unique sound and feel.
It’s like finding the surprising soft side of some scruffy old characters
Sounds like you guys are having fun! Good song, and yes it does remind me a little of the Monkees.
I love it . . . .especially the part where the fly is stuck in the kitchen.
You got me laughing on your last comment and now found this treasure! It’s a good life.
Beautiful and a great reminder to keep things in perspective. Let's keep on writing!
Lovely music to accompany a peaceful message. Who is playing the piano?
Outstanding! I feel like taking a trip to Detroit.
Nice positive message, and interesting lyric and melody. Excellent!
"Where the moon on the beach pushes time out of reach" That's Poetry!
Very catchy
I love it! 26 seconds long to convey a complete thought.
A bit of a departure from your usual reflective messaging. This one is a real toe tapper.
