Your tone is not Neil, but your style, your delivery, is very much Neil. This is a really enjoyable recording. Very exciting, very tastefully done. ROCK ON!

Capo 2 in C
This is a true story. Cody even permitted me to use his name.
Cody is a cowboy, a horseman, that’s for sure
Traded in his guitar for long John underwear
Every day he pulls his boots almost to his knees
Oh, Cody is a cowboy…
I read a book a long long time ago
Why it frightened me, I didn’t know
But there it was. There I was
How did I know?
A simple story. A man and his lover.
Made me quiver. Run for cover.
Beautiful lady in my future…Woooo
I read a book…

I like it James Michael Taylor! Under which conditions do you record. Do you have an chorus?
Great Californian Legend and my friend Cody is leading actor :-)

James Michael Taylor awesome 💞 Your song is incredibly beautiful and soulful. My fav part was your narrative at the beginning. Haunting. My sister's name is Loretta 💕 My mom ....chose her namesake to tag her beautiful baby girl. Time. Goes. By.

You were talking about Salvation art earlier-- Although this is great in its own right as to what it gives to others, I can see the processing that was going on in letting this go, in a kind of creation. Just beautiful! Gwyn Henry

Your vocal work is amazing! I really enjoyed this....
Glad to know you are not disappearing! I am also attempting the RPM challenge. So you are amazing - done already!! I love your music!
Now that I get it -- VERY COOL! Glad to know you're not leaving the AloneTone family. Keep it real!
Where are you going?? will miss your great music. Best wishes!!!
Very cool message
Much of this, for me, strongly echoes the spirit of a young Neil Young.
Ah yes the sweetness of those old California summer days.
very nice vocals, like the song it puts a smile on ones face ;-)
beatiful sound coming from your guitar sir, love the song too !
A sweet sentimental remembrance of an old friend. I can't help but feel that you have just shown the rest of us . . . *That's How It's Done*
You're the only songwriter I know that would, and successfully cold, write a tear-jerker about an old couch. 5 solid gold kudos! Keep it real, James!
Love it!
ASK CODY! It's what he told me. We report. You decide.
Nobody should die over that! Jim, you dirty dog.
Great music!
I like it James Michael Taylor! Under which conditions do you record. Do you have an chorus? Great Californian Legend and my friend Cody is leading actor :-)
This reminds of several songs but, overall, is like nothing that I've heard. I like it.

Chloride and calcium!!! Words words... Ubiquitous.... I really loved this piece. It's brilliant!!!! Thank you!!!

Jme Kinser Oh sure, couple times
Ha, I recognize that singer. Love this.
Love the breathy harmonies...
Are you English?
Love this. The pulsating...
Is that all you? Great vocal...
Great production! Such an emotional song! Great vocal mix. I'd like to hear a bit more of the lead vocal.
Deborah Claybourn Darr James Michael Taylor I completely Love this Song
Tim Robinson James Michael Taylor heavy song

Kat Angel James Michael Taylor awesome 💞 Your song is incredibly beautiful and soulful. My fav part was your narrative at the beginning. Haunting. My sister's name is Loretta 💕 My mom ....chose her namesake to tag her beautiful baby girl. Time. Goes. By.
Could this be why she left me after 29 years? I never saw it like this.
I haven't listened to this for a while. Still knocks me out. Amazing presence. If this is not multitracked, if this is one of your coffee table productions, it... nope. No way. Every element is crisp. Flawless delivery. Master vocal. Pristine guitars...da da.
Rosemarie Kempton Love reading what you write!
Judith Ellen Lopez - that's magic
Has anyone ever told you you're like an awesome mix of Crosby Stills Nash and Young mainly Neil Young meets Frank Zappa? LeAnne E Christian
Tony Desmuke That was some mighty fine prose there James.
