IN MY DREAM by James Michael Taylor
Last night I held your hand
Reached out and touched your hand
I know it's just a dream
I say, "What does that change?"
Today the sun will shine
Because you made it mine
IN MY DREAM
I held…
THE GIRL HERE IN MY HEART by James Michael Taylor
If you ever see her tell her that I love her
She might not remember. She has found another
I you ever see her you will recognize her
The girl here in this picture.
She's the girl here in my heart…
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…
SHALLOW GRAVE by Jeff Prince/JMT
Oh, well, well. Oh, my, my.
I'd like to see you on the other side
Oh, well, well. Oh, my, my.
I'd like to see you in the Bye & Bye.
I tried to write you a song but I couldn't
thin' think of nothin…
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.

Too hot for a blanket. Too hot for a sheet
The trash on the sidewalk is trying to sleep
Breathing the bus fumes on Lancaster Street
Sunshine brings tacos. Sunshine brings beans.

You asked me who Jack Hardy was...He was a friend of mine, now gone. Beloved by many. This was a bit of teasing him, imitating how he sang. He and I shared a mutual respect. The first time I met him I was sitting under an awning at the Kerrville Folk Festival and he pulled up a chair and said, "Sing me a song." We were buddies from then on. The day he would arrive at Kerrville was always joyfully anticipated, not just because he made such great spigot. Here is a link to more about him:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Hardy_(singer-songwriter)
This song is a spin-off from "Hold On". Tez found the original music and wanted to use it for his own lyric, so we assembled a new band, and Gabro replaced my original piano track (while still using the original harmonies).
The new lead melody…

Easing my way back into music production. This is a work in progress, but I have so many ideas floating I don't know how long it will take to make progress. I do like the way this turned out so far. Enjoy.
Mid-tempo, loud, and sans vocals. You want to sing (or play) on it? Drop me a line.
EDIT: I may have a taker on turning this into a proper song. If he does, this is "off-the-market", but if he doesn't, then I'll put it back on or do my…
This is such a solid track it could go a dozen ways.
Also, thank you for your comment. I had a 7th line clear up until my final mix when I realized how useless it was...your response verifies my thot. The song was start to finish this afternoon.Thanks again.

Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff
This is a great song. Good strong vocals.
A beautiful love song JM, most tenderly sung. The country music is perfect.
It's really difficult to talk on a track, I have done it once. This is very well done.
Jeff's voice reminds me of Jeff Lynne. (That's good). Nice and perky guitar work.
Sounds like a thumping good jam! Great vocals! It grows on ya!
Pitch this to N.Young and Crazy horse. Perfect fit. Lovely, the freedom here!
Reminds me of one of those sparklers on the 4th of July. Good One James!
Nice! I'm digging the raw edge to this one, especially that guitar stuff at around 3 minutes.
:)
do they still line dance out that way.
Ah good for True! Why Mr Taylor, I am quite stirred. Really digging the atmosphere. Definitely native american influences.
Hey JMT your experimental side is showing! I'm diggin it!
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.

Laurie Callinan - Its very beautiful. Love the line about the garbage trying to sleep.
Connie Pittman Ramsey Visually sorrowful and heartfelt.... Thank you James, once again, for going where most dare not go
First, the guitar sound is amazing. This friendly little project is is special in so many ways.

That bass is awesome! Great build!
This is beautiful.
Wonderful, James. Thank you for singing the songs in your heart. This world needs them.Summer Loraine Russell
Mighty powerful feelings of aloneness and independence, songs and songwriting/singing a perfect fit! Keith Haas

Crisp and crystal clear!
Perfect for your voice. "aging Silverado..." "so, I don't say a word, my order is heard."
Love your voice on this. Like 50s American pop song.
So clean! Really rocks. Sounds like your first language is American English.
Great production! Is that all you playing everything?
So clean. Very interesting...I'm missing some of the words tho. What country are you from?
This really creates a world of it's own...
I like how you fit your voice and sentiment into this barren acoustic landscape.
