Yesterday Rick Babb came over to Fort Worth
to deliver some production stuff to the concert hall
to be used by Ricky Nelson's twin sons during their
performance. We had dinner together and he came over to the
house to kill some time until…

Another gem. You got me laughing.
Sometimes we're our own worst enemy. Sometimes we just need a little short term pleasure.
I like your optimism! ( it's not if . . it's when )

The falling leaves, dead Everleys are pulling at my heart.

Listening again, this is an awful version of this song...

A little bit of pop with a strong 80s touch (I hope).

PLEASE DON'T TELL ME ANY MORE
capo @ 3 in G
James Michael Taylor 09 26/7 14
VERSE ONE - You said you knew the story would upset me G
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
I live with…
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.
Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff
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~
I just got a new Vespa, riding on it since yesterday, jo! This Drive fits O.K. :-)
Yeah! One of your long, straight roads, top down, sun shining!
Super native american flavoured track. Sounds good through the headphones especially.
Great track mate.
That's pretty darn good, especially for the situation you described. It's really fun that you caught it on tape.
Another gem. You got me laughing. Sometimes we're our own worst enemy. Sometimes we just need a little short term pleasure. I like your optimism! ( it's not if . . it's when )
Oh how we love to add to our troubles.
I like this song very much. IMHO it's your best song from this album. Well done. ER
