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…

Tales shared from long ago

(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!

live demo from our rpm sessions. still trying to hammer this one down at this point. not a bad warts and all version of a song for a friend. Chris had just lost his home to fire.
It was about sunrise when I met this guy on the streets of the French Quarter and bought him coffee. I don't know if he's still around -- that was some 20 years ago -- but a two-hour conversation affected my life more than I would have ever known…
Hanging out in the living room with one of my sons, just making stuff up. I wish I'd had the recorder closer to him - whistle too loud, guitar too soft.
For our beautiful son Willem, in French Guillaume.
recorded in my livingroom, 16-7-2009.
I called the song Guillaume before because of the beautiful sound.
Since 2012 I changed the title of the song into : Willem.
Because that makes much…
This song is written by Keith Landry.
He asked me to sing it and off course I wanted that!!
Thank you Keith!

Where oh where will you go
When the sky comes tumbling down
Do you know what you'll do
when the stars come to your town…
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…

You have a great voice! Let's here some more of it.
Interesting sounds. I wasn't expecting the lead guitar, but it fit perfectly.
There is a quality in this song that really grabs you and captures your attention.
You got my attention of this one Terry!
Very Pretty! I suspect that is natural room reverb ... very effective!
Excellent Excellent Excellent. A lot of energy there!
I like the great shuffle quality to this song.
This fits like a comfortable old shoe. Very pleasing to listen to.
This one got my feet tapping!
Good song. You can't go wrong with Tom Waits. I think my favorite song of his is "Saturday Night"
That's a great tuning! The acoustic lead break really added a nice touch.
This is one of my favorite songs! Nice to hear a new version of it. I like that lead guitar!
This is beautiful. It gets right into the center and tugs away.
