This song might be better suited for a girl but I don't have a girl anymore.
CAREFREE
Every time I go out looking for someone who's not like me
Someone who's learned to take their time and live their poetry
I dream that Care's a monkey…
Some questions and some guesses...about dreams.

Or was it dreams we dwelt within

Sequoia Memories...Capo @ 5
C
Off the coast of California
Where the dolphins ride the waves
We stood and watched them from the cliffs above
Until the sunlight went away
Then we slept in ancient shadows
Underneath the redwood trees…
Like I wrote a song for a girl and then sang it myself!
THIS BROKEN HEART OF MINE

Well, I watched you play the crowd out in West Memphis
And I've seen you play the trout at Timber Line
Next time you're in town you must come around…
Anyone see the pelicans and the dead fish floating in the oil? (In the midst of the Great Gulf Leak.)
I'M NOT GONNA CRY
Oil-covered pelicans smother
Feathered brother.
I'm not gonna cry.
I'm not gonna cry
Turtles and dolphins and…

Well, it's like I went down town last night to see Guthrie playing with Ray and I came home with a song.

So 50/90 is an unnatural forcing of a crap ton of songs in a relatively short period of time. We're half way though and I've learned one thing. I've learned how easy it is to repeat something you've already done. This one sounds a LOT like…
An old one remastered. Thought I'd be posh and call it that !!!! Didn't realize I wrote this 7 years ago, it is a bit of a rant, quietly !!! I apologise in advance if any one is offended by the Lyrics, just my opinion !!!!
This was written in 1983. Used as backing music for a dance project in Ft Collins, CO. There is now a lyric and a melody. This version is a serious jam.
Like anyone who happens to look, I see the signs of a failing economy all over the Country. This song is a effort to encourage folks to struggle for a more open and equitable system for the financial benefit of all of us.

Your music has a very interesting over all sound. The way you put it all together. There is a smoothness to it. Gentle. Harmonies, very sweet. What kind of program are you using.
A bit of nonsense maybe ?? Started off as an instrumental then these words popped out. Call me lazy if you must, but couldn't think of more !!!
C'est la vie !!!!
When we sat down to work the demo on this tune, Matt already had the guitar layering and arrangement worked out--including the wicked long intro. The lyrics are based around something my wife and I did when I was away on business. When I called…
A song about taking the time to raise our kids instead of letting them do what ever they want. I know, I know...shut up old man. Go ahead, you can say it. It's a rocker that we had a ton of fun producing. It's the only track that Matt says anything…

Oh that's lovely!
Yeah, you are right there and you don't pull any punches. What a great song and I liked the instrumentation too. Nice touch!
Lovely vocals
Well, her loss that's what I say. Great song!
Oh, long way to go for a night out. I'm gutted!
Yep, well another song just asking to be written. Very moving indeed.
love the imagery and message, great song
Very clever! Great work with the chorus, too!
Oh how lovely this is and so true. I have a parent in the same situation. Very tenderly done!
I love your stories! Your delivery is so great. Oh don't go, you're fading .....
Nice one mate great lyrics and vocals top track mate.
You're a star to many, JMT, know it or not. But I know that feeling ...
I'd like to come with you sometime, maybe it'll give me inspiration too. Love your lyrics, and chorus especially, but it's all great.
Oh, rip my heart, James Michael. Brilliant!
nice :)

I like this. Reminds me of Steven Stills. But you need to bring your voices out in the mix. As loud as the guitar, at least, when you are singing.
Puts my back in the 50s. Recognized Bethan's sweet voice instantly.
Love the guitar sound. "There will be people you wish you'd never met." Great big sound. Great production.
Great groove. Very nice...
Time to add more songs, Bruce.
Really like the voice. Such a sad song.
Yeah. Great guitar work. Production really rocks.
Very nice. Like a continuation of CITY OF NEW ORLEANS
Is that you on electric guitar?
really!!!

Beautifully done.
Great guitar sound and mix. So clean. What are recording with...program? (pyropool@earthlink.net)
Your playing is so clean and bright. Are you mic-ing your guitar? So wistful.
Soooo pretty with a touch of sad.
So bright and sunny. Makes me see happy lovers playing on the beach. Children playing in a park.
Nice sentiment. Unity thru common vision.
You guys really have that ZZ tightness... My son is too good to play with me.
What a happy tune with just one little cloud. A great little sing along, "blue sky, clouds go by..."
Owie! No beating around the bush here.
