Morning light on the mountain stream,
catches the eye of the child within his dreams.
The day begins, present and aware,
of all the beauty, he plays without a care.
Castles on the riverbank, a choir of birds in song,
picking spring flowers in…
Why does everyone have a better acoustic guitar sound than me...?
More Neil Young sounding to me but I can also picture/hear B.O.C (fyi: Blue Oyster Cult for the kiddies..:>) covering this or the Marshall Tucker Band.
Love the first chords, drew me right in. Wish I wrote it! What's the intro's chord progression so's I can steal em! If this was a bit faster, it'd be a great Monkees tune (i love the Monkees!) or 'country-fy' it and I can hear Tom T. Hall covering it (is he still alive?)

I'm solid gold
Something must be said
I must show the world I know it all
I know it all
So self absorbed
In over my head
Something must be said about it…

Norm played the percussion first, which is a Bembe pattern; I couldnt help playing a melody and creating lyrics for this perc track. Thanks for the listen, Enjoy!
I was collecting 4th of July samples and recorded a jewel. By chance, I recorded my 4 year old girl, and you can hear her thought process...wondering how the fireworks were so high in the air - perhaps the fireworks were dropping from the sky…
Comments on Dave Berry's stuff
Why can everyone else play cool solos but not me! Bring up the main vox!
I'd bring up the solo and add reverb to put it 'up' among the stars with the strings!
what a great easy feelin vibe! The change up tempo kicks it good! Who needs the MTB...?
Yup, flying... also kinda reminds me of Queens work for the Flash Gordon film soundtrack at points and also UK (look them up)with their synth sounds.
I was relaxing, drifting down the river in a canoe then the song picked up! Nice solo, definately M.T.B. flavored.

Thats good. I love this sound here.
Thats a cool groove. jazzy, bluesy, deadly
Nice with the changes. You call this draft, sheesh, this is top drawer songwriting and recording going on here.
Nice intro...wow, this one speaks to me. This one reminds me of the late great Saint Thomas.
