I love the backing vocal again.
This is a strong and definite feeling song. The heavy down beat, the lyrics the no-nonsense guitar
playing. You mean business here! Yeah!

There was this biker bar called The 2500 Club. Just west of Sylvania on Belknap. On a sign outside it says, "The best little biker bar in Texas." Guthrie and Rick and I played there long enough to get to feeling pretty much like family.

So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…
The tension in this is palpable from the first question. The quiver in the voice. The nakedness of the questions. "Often forget you understand." Hard to hear as just another blues song.
i was trying to work on a piece for a shark video of mine, but this is what came out instead,, my piano moments collections are the small musical threads that emerge amongst/while i am working/thinking about other things,,,
I got me a new mic and a pre-amp and I picked up the Jumbo Eko (I'll do this again when my fingertips have recovered). I tried to do finger picking when I was a teen, but didn't pursue it as it seemed like too much hard work at the time. Today…

A bit of improv done yesterday with my newly refurbished fretless guitar. Finally got the midi pickup to track almost right! Part of the sounds were gotten by rubbing a teaspoon on the strings.
A song for all the rainbow people; musicians, artists and healers, to name but a few.
A true collaboration for Jip and Lady Jane as they meet up for the first time in 32 years and, together with Mike and his witty one liners, come up with this…
I've posted this "Naked" version because Mrs Russe wanted me to... :-)
It wasn't "finished" in my mind - there was a certain amount of "orchestration" to come.
But I ended up liking the starkness of this version.
The original intention…
This is an ode for a good friend of mine that had took his own life at the end of last year. I was in the midst of writing some other songs and it stopped me in my tracks. I just wrote basically how I felt about this tragic ending to a very special…
Had written this one many years ago. I had it recorded originally in a different key and with different instrumentation but it I just was not happy with it. I deleted the original lyrics for the chorus and added a bridge section and lyrics. I…

The core of the music is heavily inspired by Joni Mitchell. Its been spinning around for years in my head so hearing this song finally recorded feels good.
Another collab with Jip, with me adding the vibes, pad of the orient, flute and vocals.
From the original da da da da das before I came up with any lyrics, I wasn't happy with any of the melodies. This is the result of me getting bored with…
Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff
I love your stuff. Obviously born from pain and regret that was real. Thanks for making it through and turning it into something good.
Very Nice!!
This drew me in from the first few bars and held me to the end
Absolutely brilliant mate really dig this.
This is great. Wonderful guitar work, love the tempo, most touching lyrics. Great stuff!
Awesome storytelling young fella. Super harmonies.
My...how did you get Crosby/Nash to sing bg vocals? Brighter days, JMT.
Pert' Good. (instruments over modulated)
can't figger out why you ain't a star, but then maybe you are -- feel free to use.
You must follow this song with "Peggy's Gone".
Great song and the harmonies are to die for
I love the backing vocal again. This is a strong and definite feeling song. The heavy down beat, the lyrics the no-nonsense guitar playing. You mean business here! Yeah!
Overall sounds warmer than what you were doing before. Good song too.
new platform? Cool. I do Logic too.
Nice one mate great vocals nicely done.
have a soft spot in my heart for lesbian biker chicks James (which does me no good). Great song!
Awesome!!!!
Nice grabbing intro. James, this is a brilliant track. Love the lyrics, melody and tempo. Recipe for perfection.
Cool song, almost have a Neil Young voice going on there.
Cool tune.

Pretty exciting piece.
Really like the way you combine the techno stuff with the great guitar sounds.
Nice touch.
Love this song. Great job.
Love the blending of sounds...especially the voices.
Great groove. Is that a midi bass? It's sooo clean.
Very cool song...
Perfect combination of words, voice and ambient sounds.

Richard, Tell me more about this spell we have fallen under.James Michael Taylor
Your guitar playing is fine. Sounds like something Leonard Cohan would do.
That's really pretty. If you double your vocal tracks and use one each with less effect the words would be understandable.
Very cosmic. I'd like to see that guitar.
Charming...
Very nice... Like something in a musical. The voice doesn't sound like Freddy Mercury but has the dramatic tension...
Fine tribute. A sadness we all share sooner or later.
...something very Dylan about it. Especially like it where you break it down to just your voice and the arpeggios.
Really like this one. So many references. The Band, Queen. Nice vocal. Love the progression.
Great guitar harmony work.
Very Pink Floyd/Beatles like. Very restful.
