RAGE a song by Jeff Prince
Smoke curls 'round her finger tips and rises toward the light
She crumbles up another pack and curses at the night
And that god-damned clock, Tik tok, tik tok, mocks her mournful face
From kitchen wall to kitchen…

HONEY CHILD
I see your eyes inquiring, without a word
Will I stick around or fly like a bird
Maybe I’ll stay a while
Silhouettes colliding. Luminescent sparks
Crazy hoofbeats pounding. Trailblazing hearts
We’ll ride in style, this winding…
Facebook is a horrible thing. The real world keeps intruding into the perfectly peaceful virtual world.

Real men keep butting' in. They've done it again. Real men

A GOOD CRY
A song by Rick Babb
and James Michael Taylor
Why don't you cry?
I know you need to
A tear was meant to ease the pain
A flood could come
and it will wash you
So don't you try to hold it back
A good cry can't be bad…
Florencia - I would telll you the chords
but I don't know what they are...
The tide is going out in Avila
I can feel it in my blood
Here I am in South beach Florida
Just like you knew I would
Florencia, I've been waiting…

In 1984 George Sluizer, a Dutch director filmed RED DESERT PENITENTIARY in and around Sweetwater, Texas. This is the theme song of the lead character, Danny McMann. I played that role in the movie and wrote the music to the film.

I have always liked both the music and the words to Danny's Theme from day one. It only gets better the more I hear it once again from year to year. kEren

Letters that sparkle. Notes that jingle

There’s a song in my heart today - M E L I S S A

I TAKE THE BACK WAY HOME

Sometimes I flirt a little. Sometimes I don't

Boy, I can identify with this one from days gone by.... but while these days are a little less "exciting" I do tend to get where I'm going much quicker. ;-) Great tune JMT, keep 'em coming!

This utterly, utterly hits the spot. Shivers down the spine music for me.
The bass and the guitars, the backing vocals, the minimal lyrics, the way you bring it to a close...
Wonderful.

Everyone I need to talk to tonight is gone
Some have gone to heaven. Some have gone to hell

JOHNNY BROKE AN AXLE 110220

Broke it like a pencil
Oh, no.

I found this Tangelwood guitar locally in a repair barn
its a parlor with 12 frets to the body
the top wood is cedar, this guitar can sing
I am sharing its beauty with you for free
A little celestial inspiration for this song.... I started it and Greg and Mark helped me finish it and then record around my kitchen table. Feel free to howl if you like it!

I was coasting across West Texas/Had my top down, it was late at night

I love the"Mistook Moon" song! Like one of your fans commented, it's both a story and magical! Definitely a sense of the magical. I relate to the voice of the song... my vision is so wonky these days, when I am riding w/ Greg or Shanna (my red-heaired daughter) I have had a couple of screaming scares (terrifying my driver) thinking an odd play of light and shadow was another car we were about to hit full speed! So I can understand, mistaking a train for the moon. Only for me it would have been reversed: I would have screamed and duckedin terror from the moon! Gwyn Henry

So I got me a new geetar the other week.
Named her Lala, obviously. Seemed kind of appropriate - she wears a faded gold dress and is full of chunes and mischiefs.
This is our first effort together. It was meant…

Comments made by James Michael Taylor
Nice electric guitar work on Every one I need to talk to. My favorite so far. Same with But The Sun. The lyrics and the melody. Nuno
I remember Johnny Broke An Axel. Loved it then. Love it now. Nuno
Honk: Nice little rocking riff. Sleepy Head: Nice lullabye. Nuno
The 4 shorts Dying's Not Easy, Miss Her, Broccoli and Kite. Like snapshots from and old camera turned to music. Nuno
All in all, a very good album. The melodies and harmonies blending together with the moody acoustic ad electric guitar. A very visual album. Nuno
Nuno Santos Going through an album of old dusty snapshots...
How can something be so beautiful, yet so fleeting?
Sweet...
So mournful. Well done. The tides are tugging on the threads of my sleep..." great image.
Love is a bitch.
Been there! So sorry. We are so foolish.
Soooo sad.
Just "WoW!"
