Lyrics:
Trading Smiles
Trading smiles on a cloudy day
Wish good fortune come your way
A passing glance, I’m on my way
Trading smiles
Courtesy seems all but gone
No idea what went wrong
For most of us, it’s been too long
Trading…
Goodness, I have a lot of listening-catch-up to do! Great slide work and patiently played, as is fitting for the song. I like how you don't rush but, rather, find a groove immediately which enables your listeners to relax and enjoy. The groove phenomenon is true of all your songs!
I missed this one Bethan's beautiful vocal and Lisa's playing along with you guitar a wonderful piece of work what collabs were made for....excellent job all round.....
Lyrics
Cry of Love
Cry of love, heard in the meadow
Watching the wind blow
With love in the air
Cry of love, answered by another
Who courts the same lovers
With sounds of despair
Cry of love, heard in the daylight
Still crying…
Songcrafters.org did a "Live in the living room "festival recently...
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!
When i was a young man I stayed round a so called friends house once and heard them talking about me through the walls ........i never let on i heard.........needless to say they are no longer my friend............Hopefully they will hear the…
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......
LETTING IT GO (Lyrics)

No im not happy and no im not sad, no im not good but i know im not bad. No i wont go there, but no i wont stay, no im not straight but no im not gay, no need to tell me i know im not right, no happy endings and no end in sight. I got no way of…
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
through a thousand thoughts unsaid
gather you in
weary day behind you
and you can lay your head…
Not really Irish ... a Scottish ballad ...
An earthly nourris sits and sings
And aye she sings, "Ba lilly wean
(and) no ken I, my bairns father
Far less the land that he dwells in."
And up come he to her bed fit
A grumly guest I'm sure…

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!
