Sawtooth Mountain. Working minimum wage
Clearing slash for a trail for the lift to the edge
Snow starts to falling the wind blowing sharp
Freezing my breath and breakin' heart
Some men's got to hunt. Some men's gotta ski…

That you'd resolved to kept it to yourself G D
You said you knew how hard it would…
Remember that song, PLEASE DON'T TELL ME ANY MORE? You wrote. "What a hateful, miserable person that big mouth is." Well, Big Mouth, yes, and oblivious, but he's one among us and non of us think of him as hateful. People say things in a flash, not having a clue to how it's going to land.
The banjo, bass and guitar on this song
was played by Michael Jeffrey. This is one song off the record we did together back in 1975/6 on his 4 track machine. Michael and Barbara Anne Taylor sing harmony.
I LIVE WITH REBECCA

My Rebecca married a buddy who was killed in a car wreck. Had a beautiful daughter who died in her teens. Such sadness I have lost touch with her. She and I met ay Abilene Christian College in 1964. One day we met at a park and she read THE LITTLE PRINCE to me.

Very interesting. I was there with my girlfriend Rebecca Portillo. Your song made that trip extra special. She lived in Las Cruces NM and I lived in Columbia, Mo attending UMC. We eventually went out separate ways. So your song turned out to be prophetic. Thank you for using your gift of music and sharing it. Phil Estes

Any chance you played in a bar in El Paso August 1978? That’s where I heard “I live with Rebecca.” Bought an album there with this song, actually because of this song. Peace - Phil Estes
NEW DAY Key Am
In the morning when she gets me up
Pours some wake up in my coffee cup
She opens the window, lets the new day in
She says, “Open your heart and embrace it.
Take that frown and erase it.
I whistle a happy song…”
So…

Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff
Ah yes now I get it.
Can't hear it, JM.
ooooooooooo*oooo() oooo* &&&&! oo.?
I'll say it again !!! Damn good song.. I'll be back ...
Damn good song .... I'll be back..
I'm on my second listen. It's very interesting but totally unexpected. Something about it is very facinating. It might be the driving rhythmn.
Dig!
I love your delivery, it has great rhythm too.
Such a good song in a short time! You finished it up beautifully JM.
The pumping in the background gives this such an edge. Most effective!
Yeah, drive on! Like the road from Houston to Fort Worth.
This one is atmospheric! What are you up to, exactly? Wonderful!
So we have travelled on and are now in the bar for some thirst quenching!
Definite native american indian feel! Lovely composition!
Well this is a prelude to something!
Like a prayer
pow-wow time
nice, like the barren-ness
Nice little ditties JMT. Been reading Ginsberg?
He howled in the night That someone was listening, He howled whole night That someone was. He howled all night And the moon Came out~
