as they pertain to plot,
are my exact memory of the event.
I had spoken to the kid maybe a minute before the "action" started about how the pressure of the water was very strong. He was nestled down with his back…

When Layla comes over I put on my socks

I went out to the stockyards last night. I don’t get out much but I had an invite.
My buddy, Guthrie Kennard was playing.
The place was full. The band was tight. Whitney Raquel opened the night
And the kids from the 2500 Club…

I don't know what you typically listen too, but the Flaming Lips album "The Terror" was written by Wayne Coyne after his significant other of twenty-five years left him. Amazing the good that the bad can drag out of artists.

This was a collab between my old friend Joe and I from a couple years ago. I recorded the basic track and sent it to him so he could play the main melody/ guitar solo over it. I took the ending of the guitar solo section and reversed it to give…

I think I'd be ready…

There is nothing like the presence of a horse. The quiet understanding. The gentle strength.
Woodlake, California...1961. I had a horse. She was my friend.
There were times in my teens when Babe was the only being that did not judge me…
A little bit of pop with a strong 80s touch (I hope).

Hi, MJM I'm enjoying your songs today and I especially like this one. All the best, Jenni Peal

Aww - gorgeous song and delivery.
I love 70s AM radio! Digging it.
Great song mate

Nice mix of acoustic guitar with synthesizer. Great voice
I had to play this one again. Beautiful!
The anon verse is gorgeous - and you matched it. Lovely stuff.
