Very nice... this is a prime example of how the words of a JMT song can flow so effortlessly into a captivating story... how JMT can "paint" a "canvas" with sound.
It hit me...I know so many sides of so many arguments it's all become useless.

SOMEWHERE

Somewhere between the summer and the winter
The leaves between the tree tops and the fall
Somewhere between my heart and circled letters
Somewhere…

Monster in the making, Frankenstein unchained

Great guitar sound. Nice mixture of keys and guitar. Nice when the low keys come in. I like the way you change the pace at points. Very the tempo.
Echos of some of my favorite Chopin passages. Just a lovely winding trail. Close my eyes and just drift along. Wonderful combining of guitar and keys...I'm repeating myself. Great change/refresh at 5:30.
Baby can you here the thunder tonite?
Baby can you here the rain coming down, down?

An instrumental based on the Arabian-major scale, which I got from Mike Chlasciak's "Exotic Blood" column in the Holiday 2013 issue of Guitar World magazine. Hope you like it.
Asthma is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. In other words, they don't know what's causing it. And haven't been able to come up with a cure either.

This is one of the many songs going round my head from when I was young. No idea whose version I heard and used to sing along to back then, but it was written by Larry Collins and Alex Harvey.
(EDIT: Done some research. It was Dottie West's…
Nice version of a great old song...
Alex Harvey is regarded as the writer around here. Saw him at the Rubaiyat in Dallas back in 1975. More recently , at the Blue Bird in Nashville. He just came in unannounced with his buddies and sort of took over the place. Tanya Tucker was 13 when she recorded this song and it was what made her famous until she got too into her Elvis thing. Then Married Glen Campbell and that went real bad.
Found this old track while backing up my hard drive. It is an alternate tracked played at a slower tempo. I added a quick drum track and ruff remix this morning.
What a funky track. Love it. Really summons Hendrix...
Oh, and while I'm here, what did you mean by, "Nice response to what Adelson is calling for," on FORESTS OF IRAN?

They discovered a planet that has no star
Maybe they'll let me name it whoever they are
I know all about a planet without a star
Oh, please let me name it.
I know all about it.
A planet. No orbit. Just lost out in space
No hope or habit…

Next in the little pile of songs from the shoe-box. This one has the date 27th January 1994 written on it, but it's describing an episode from many years earlier when I was, I'm guessing, something like 12 or 13 years old.

Love the feel of dread the percussion and background vocals creates. Now if I can get this Alonetone site to work so I can listen to more music...
Very nice... this is a prime example of how the words of a JMT song can flow so effortlessly into a captivating story... how JMT can "paint" a "canvas" with sound.
Neil Young would have been proud to write this one, but it's 100% JMT.
Great stuff JMT! Thanks! Best ... Gordon
Great song!
You really know how to tickle an emotion. I love it James!
Somewhere between the stumbling and the falling. great line JMT. Keep going.
This is one that I haven't heard yet. Me likey.
I could listen to this one all day long...
Love this!!!!!
Nice arrangement. Luv all tha eclectic-electric G'tar-werk in tha track.. c):~)
relationships are so easy until we go and involve another human.
good one!
is that Butch on slide?
:)
Oh yes, like it.
There's something about this one I just like.,
I love it! It has a nice 60s/70s touch that I like.
OMG, what a delivery! Loving this one JM! Effective increase in tempo in the middle before the bridge. Superb track. Bethan
I love the music, well played guys! And the poetry reading is excellent. Cheers Bethan

I really like this. Wish you would mix the voice up in the mix. Really engaging groove. Great blend of sounds.
Love it. Immaculate.
I hear this with a cool bass line and choir. Maybe I download it and show you what I mean.

Sweet. "We'll go on and on..." Like that...
Reading your preface and then listening to this piece has me much more aware of my breathing. Slow and deep. Grateful for health.
Cool song and some very impressive moves.
Love the laughter. The funky rawness.
Listening again. This really touches something, with the obvious undertones of the dark side of the moon...
That sound was me clicking my finger nail on one of my guitar strings with added reverb.
...the dark side of Venus.
I'd like to see video with this...
This suggests to me that the universe is a big merry-go-round...
Regarding THE BOOK: You nailed it. Siddhartha, indeed.
Cool song.
Very cool meter and combination of sounds.
What a universal little scene. Well told. Every little boy has to deal with that uncertainty. Will she? Sad it never changes for so many of us.
Pensive, maybe. But not dirgy. Just a little more voice in the mix please.
