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…
Even we who think we are too good to watch soap operas watch soap operas.
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
No…
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…
by James Michael Taylor
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.

I thought so little of this song at first I filed it away in a folder on my hard disk called "nogood". About a year later I listened to it again and changed my mind.
Another old one. I sort of call it my 'Ram' moment !!! As if !! Anyway, I can remember I wrote this 3 or 4 weeks after my mother passed away. Yeh, I know, a strange song to write, I like to think I was celebrating her life. She was a great Mum…
Terry, Just so After "Sleep" is not a complete mystery, that entry is music and f/x I'm submitting for scene a movie. With the sound track and the picture it all makes perfect sense.
Don't know what to say about this. I fell out with God a while back, and still find the whole notion of a God pretty disturbing. So this song is something about how I relate to God now. No peace and unconditional love - more an insidious sense…
Jip and JB in the Jipster studio, sitting down with guitars and a few beers, and many laughs. It was almost abandoned at one point, but we pressed on. Here's the result. I don't think the mouse has a name.

Lyrics:
Spring time comes, the Robins sing
And love is in the air
Rain falls down, the flowers bloom
Romance…
A remake of an old song, this is my version as I wrote it. Going to get the Good wife to record her version. Fight, Fight !!! Looking back Imspired of course by the Good wife, also we had just saw The Jersey Boys on stage at the West End. What…
A folksy number inspired by the stories my nan told me many moons ago about her uncle Herbie..
Herein lies the story, of a man named Herbie Jones.
Not a million miles away from a man you might have known.
A miner in the twenties, blue scars…
Like your sound. Maybe a tad less f/x on your voice. I want to understand your words. What are you recording on? (jamesmichaeltaylor@jamesmichaeltaylor.com)
It aint like no ones done this before
But how can you tire of beautiful chords
In the fifties
In Tenessee
Where my love
was born
Two young men upped and
crossed the yard
both cold cos it was rainin hard.
One of them turned said…

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.

Wish the voice wasn't so buried in the mix... Sounds real good.
Like it...glad you dug it back out. Sometimes we are too close to something when we first do it.
Nice waking up music...and then...very interesting story and treatment.
Line Dance in Fort Worth. Texas - You bet.
Like it.
Very nice.
Terry, Just so After "Sleep" is not a complete mystery, that entry is music and f/x I'm submitting for scene a movie. With the sound track and the picture it all makes perfect sense.
Yeah, I know what you ate talking about.
Fun! Very Beatly.
Such sad sounding music with such happy words...
Good clean guitar sound. Nice song.
Oh, to be young and that energetic again...!
Very Beatley. Like your music.
Like your sound. Maybe a tad less f/x on your voice. I want to understand your words. What are you recording on? (jamesmichaeltaylor@jamesmichaeltaylor.com)

Makes me dizzy...
Great guitar sounds. Nice song.
Love it.
Jack Bruce lives...dig it. Great lick and vocal. W Jimi sneaking in on vocal...
