I was making a list of all the senses I could think of and it all began to make no sense.
She was everything I ever dreamed of
... and I was hers for the taking
She was everything I ever dreamed of
The last piece in the puzzle
A dream in…
DIGGIN’ A HOLE by Jeff Prince
This is Jeff on the vocal
From an album we made as THE GHOST OF JOHN MURPHY
All that fun guitar stuff is Jeff.
Diggin’ a hole is a natural thing to do.
Out in Odessa searching for Texas crude.
Or up in the…

HOUSE Key - D (C capo @ 2) 0516/1712
I don't have a life/Not a real life
Tho I may be bold/I don't have a hand to hold
I don't have a life/Not a real life

When I read the lyric, I wondered at you watching "House".
Well, the song is really brill and you sing it so well. The strings give it a wonderful melancholy flavour.

THE TABLE by Jeff Prince
Funny, running into you this way after all these years
You hardly aged a single day except those lines around your eyes when you smile. She laughs as she recalls the girl that she was and the boy who chased her around…

I have a brain that I must keep busy
I have a heart with too many hurts
And I have a house with too many memories
My life is broken but somehow it still works
And I have a dream that wakes me up crying
I feel…

This is a mess but when we tried to clean it up it killed the spirit of it so we decided to just take off our critics hat and just enjoy the energy of it.

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?
Lately Ive been dreaming of you lying next to me and I realise your gone
And I cant seem to find
A way to stop these tears, from bleeding out this heart of…
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…
~For whom who far away~

Perpetual motion of things that will not stop even when we're no longer here. Strange feeling.

Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff
Not your average James Michael Taylor. Entertaining none the less.
See you guys at Prairie Fest on May 26. Can't wait!

TV the confidant of generations
Brilliant lyric JM! Very down to earth yet helpless. "American kid" "Kid" that's the operative word! Good one!
Great song mate excellent vocals
Happy, happy, happy...Grin
"holding to the moment, no matter where it went." I like that!
Brilliant.....
compelling and driving music, griping lyrics.
Mercy! Tells a story that needs to be told today. Powerful!
Disturbing . . . I suspect that was your objective.
great song all round - powerful lyric and great vocals.
Sounds nice and full, great in headphones. Tremendous vocals!
pow-wow at the philharmonic
really captures a feeling
Good 'un JMT
My comment went into the Texas Triangle. This is so well writen by Jeff Prince. And a masterful performance by JMT
Nice! made me smile!!
Amazing, very vivid narrative. And the music could not complement it any better.

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.

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.
