Today I learned 2 things: 1) Mick Jagger turns 66 tomorrow (a horrifying thought, to be sure), and 2) one of my loop CDs contains vocals from a man who does a good job imitating him. Soooo, with some appreciation for Mick's accomplishments, and…
Another older song, this is my attempt to sound like one of my all-time favorites, Robin Trower. While he never used horns in his songs, I like them (being a former sax player), so I used them in this song to enhance the sound. Let me know what…
This song speaks to a dichotomy I've noticed about the digital age. While businesses certainly have a lot to say to their customers, and use all kinds of electronic means to reach them, the same is not true of the individual. Now that we have…
I use texting in the studio to avoid phones ringing in my mic :) Otherwise, I don't use a cell. I prefer face to face. Expressions and body language are important and can not be perceived by emoticons.
Good subject to write about.

"The pictures that she paints while you're keeping time might just make you think again if you don't believe in the divine." Simply, it's a delicate little song appreciating the talents behind a beautifully written and performed song with the…
Hey Keith - Just stopped by for a listen and went through the whole album before I noticed. Very nice songs here. My favorites were Brandon McCarthy and Tee Ball. I also liked Circles and Seasons because I feel the same way sometimes.
Will be back to listen to more.
Regards.

I used to blast this song so loudly in my little room - when that chorus hits, and that huge tidal wave of guitars, it is just breathtaking. And there is nothing I can say about the voice and aura of Armando Louder that hasn't already been said.
DREAMS OF THE OCEAN
Your kids'll be waking up in the morning
Just a couple of hours after mine have gone to bed
I've got the coffee warming
While dreams of the ocean are in your daughters' heads
I taught them all 'bout it late last evening…
Ring of Fire - lyrics by Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash -1963. Slightly modified.
This wasn't meant to be Ring of Fire but that's how it wound up.
I have been wanting to trash Ring of Fire and the words just seem to fit this simple 1-4-5…
Love the way this song builds in the beginning. How long did it take to build that rhythmic section in the middle? I wouldn't be done with it yet. This is the kind of song that one can get lost in. Well done.

This is really a true story.
No, really...
And our holiday gift to you & your friends. (Feel free to download it and share it with anyone who you think might enjoy it.)
Oh... by the way... acl is finally waking from a very deep slumber…
Written and sung by Tangmo. Arranged and performed by Phil Close. Additional guitars by Karl Cutruff.
Hey everybody, come out in the streets now
Hey everybody, let's have a good time
Bring along your cooler, there's good food to eat now…
Summer Grass- I didn’t originally intend for this to be the title track, but since most, though not all, of the songs on this album sound like summer to me, I decided, why not? The guitar even sounds humid and warm, but in that nice July way…
This is probably the most tender song I've heard from you. I have felt the same way about a woman, and prayed that moment would never pass even though I knew it would.
Nicely done.

This Lovin’ Cup- I was watching the idiot box and just holding my guitar when this little vamp on a B chord came out of nowhere. Using the same recorder, I recorded about 20 seconds of the riff. The lyrical idea came on the trip to Chicago, while…
I can hear this being played in a smoke-filled bar, and see semi-drunken patrons bouncing on the dance floor while the song plays. Great song for a live band.

Comments on Endicott Road's stuff
Thank you for your comments about our music.Like this song,very nice melody and back vocals.
Ooh check out that break! Is that you playing guitar?! Great!
One thing good about girlfriends, they do inspire us to write great tunes like this one. Nice work. Classic E.R.
Lovely melody, Terry!
Another not so quiet victory from your not so ordinary life. Lots of cool guitar parts too.
This is a really good track, Terry. I love the way it bounces along and thought the lyrics were great.
Like the jolly arrangement, and the quirky synth brass break!
I'm up, I'm dancing around. Another fun tune from Endicott Road......
Well done E.R. I like this one too! Faved.
Oh man, this is really cool.........
Nice up-tempo track, Terry. Optimistic with the feel good factor.
Mighty fine guitar work there!
I never heard of loop vocals. I must be as old as Mick. :)
:D Me too man, me too.
This is a foot tapper. The horns work well with the guitars. We're rockin' now! One Mo' time.........
I use texting in the studio to avoid phones ringing in my mic :) Otherwise, I don't use a cell. I prefer face to face. Expressions and body language are important and can not be perceived by emoticons. Good subject to write about.
Love the chorus. Hope it works out for you man!
I like this E.R. a happy little tune, but the lyrics reminded me that my ship is still at sea! It should be here when I'm 64 :D
Great rhythm and lyrics, Terry. Cool instrumental break too!
Sad but true... w;-)

Wonderful snappy tune! I like it. Singin' along as I try to type . . . uh, did I spelll that right? ER
Have you been reading my diary? LOL Very self-revealing lyrics. I hear you, man. ER

My entire 2010 RPM Album had songs along the same line as your lyrics. I agree completely with what you're saying. ER
Truth is stranger than fiction! ER
Love the layering of the vocal tracks on this. Much better than I could ever do. ER
Nice ballad. I like it a lot. ER
Nice live feel to this. Well done song. ER
Love the steel drums. Nice tune. ER
