Candy Davis Your song made me feel as if I were walking past this sad man's broken, tattered life. I don't think I've ever listened to one of your songs without feeling deeply moved.

Damien Carroll Recorded in 1976? Sounds so fresh. Love the sentiment. I hear touches of Willie Nelson.

Keith Haas That was a cheap wine was it not? I think they were sipping 7 Up.

James Buchanan Almost Jim Croce

Candy Davis James Michael Taylor A true classic. Deceptively simple, yet so many feelings in there: angst, loneliness, and hope, all rolled into one. Davis When I wrote this, 50 years ago, I was afraid it would seem like nothing happened. Thank you for being able to read between the lines.

“I loved her against reason, against promise, against peace, against hope, against happiness, against all discouragement that could be.” - Charles Dickens

Wow! Starts of so light and carefree. Then pow to rock lead guitar breaks the tranquility. Contrast. Js Bchard.

David Young That’s the album that got me started loving your music! I used to listen to it often on my drive to work and back.

Candy Davis I love that album. You gifted it to me a long time ago, and I still think about those hapless men becoming ill and dying, making hickory handled hardware. And "Help!' raises so many emotions in me--that people would just stand on the shore and do nothing while you risked your life alone to save that boy. All of the songs on Slaughter Mountain are ones that are so well written and so memorable!

Great song as always, good sir.

Wow. That is a good one. Michelle Soto

You really broke me down on that one. It's like you have been looking into my living room. It took me a second to remember your names is James also. - James Bucannan

Haunting voices and guitar work. Nuno

The line: "The window's a mirror when it's dark outside..." Wow! Nuno

Gerald Ray - I love this.

"Nobody Knows Me". Your voice is so different in that song. Deeper.NUNO

NAAD -Just read your lyrics and liatend.to the son...w Very beautiful, very moving...beautiful how you he'd on the rhyme scheme an dmade it work...so love the slave t rhymes as well...they're my favorite...super smooth transitions....tell me a bit about the inclusion of you garden reflections in the middle of the song...counter point? Balancing urgency and reality? Love, love, love thisnone...will.ha r to listen again. "tell me a bit about the inclusion of you garden reflections in the middle of the song...counter point?" it all ties in when I relate it to the weather, "...there's lightning and thunder...but this summer is a wash...what we really need is rain." The reason the river was up that day was because there had been so much rain in the previous days, they were lowering the dam to lower the water lever in the lake that fed this river.

Dang dude, I love it…🤠❤️🤠…just got on this site and read then listened to you sing this song…I’m gonna be 49 next month and just reading it pulled me in to listen to it…I’m a total ROOKIE…but I have a voice and blues everything that I’d kill this into a song… BUT NOT just one song I’d make three songs out of this whole thing…so the first two songs…I’d leave no ending…only to have people waiting and wanting more..to later on the radio station would get so many requests the DJays… would be forced into playing the 2nd and third part to get to the climax… of a brilliant Ending❤️❤️🤠🤠❤️❤️😎😎.. feel free to reach out to me through this dam computer stuff..HELL JAMIE H…… $$$ living in Baycity Michigan…EMPATH you later.zz

Gwyn Henry Again...poetry!! Love this. Can relate to the discoveries under the couch!!

Such great beats. You remind me that I need to focus more on my rhythm tracks.

I was reading what you wrote about how you approach producing a song at Forum. Had to hear how it all came out. I see/hear! Really cool.

Pake Rossi James Michael Taylor this is one of my favorite of your songs!

That's a very complex silence, there! What must some rock and roll sound like in this place?

Nice idea...

You had me at, "Broken Windows." Love this. So, Family-Out-On-The-Porch.

Love the guitar sound. The song and the singing reminds me of one of my favorite songs from 1964 by The Seekers, I'll NEVER FIND ANOTHER YOU.

Great guitar presence. What were you playing?

Is this about a real place in your life. Very nice (You can answer by putting a message on any of my songs.) Thank you for listening to my songs and commenting.

So many elements! Great dynamic shifts. You swing. You rock.

So bold and moody. Thank you for listening to my songs.

Carolyn Wade 60 Years later?? This is a good song. Love the lyrics, the music fits the words.

Katy Tom Noyes The line....you feel warm when you're freezing to death.... I was so afraid this was going to happen to my Dad the first night. He thought he could tuff it out. Ended up in his car for warmth. He finally realized the severity and went to my brother's. He didn't want to leave his house

April Nicholle Bond Wonderful and moving! Thank you.

Very compelling, and I think the unusual/quirky arrangement complements the story. Tim Tandy

Connie Pittman Ramsey wow! whoa! like i said in the comments on alonetone ... 'its' not a bad movie ... just a bad scene ... is a kicker!! thanks!!

Very "cool."

Really clean!

Great idea. Killer production.
