Rich textured sound. For some reason the second piece (or the end of the first piece) really jump started my visual imagination.
Nice guitar with effects, and interesting accompaniment.

A lil rocker influenced by some of my faves, Springsteen, Petty etc.. well i left my home and family
and made my way out west
i lost my job at the steel mill
im a hoping for the best
in this life
for my kids and wife
just outside of Davenport…
billy boy where did you go
sittin in a pile of snow
come on down its gettin cold
for the time is getting old
well we made our way to the old wigwam
frozen lake and wind was calm
standing bow did strike a deer
to feed the tribe…
THE OPENER OF DOORS
THAT SLOWLY EVENLY OPENING LORD
THAT MANY WILL GET SUCKED IN
THAT MANY WILL GET SHUT OUT
FROM GLOWING TO CHANTING OF WORDS
FROM JOUSTING AND THROWING OF SWORDS
DAYLIGHT INTO DARK A CARRIAGE MADE FROM A GOURD
IN THE FEW FLEETING…
For Elly Barnes
Thanks for the moment to think......
-My part of peace-
To think for a moment
Is the greatest of gift to me.
To think without fear
Better still....
My part of peace
Detracts in the least
From the good…
Hard rock song about losing faith....
Lyrics:
I'M GOING DOWN
Sedate it with barbiturates
Inject it with a needle
Calm this stirring anger
That I always feel
Lord, where are you
You've mocked my every prayer
Everything around…
This acoustic song is a drunk nihilistic escapade with a surprise ending; so if you like to howl, join along and do your best "ahhoooo.."
Lyrics:
At full moon, I was drunk as a skunk
My belly full of bourbon, and my breath really stunk…
BLEEDING ON THE GROUND
ALL THE FEELINGS SOUND
ALL THE NOISE IS DOWN
EVERY WOUNDED JUNKIES CLOWN
SWIMMING IN A MOUND
OF PILLS AND POWDER
ALL THE PAIN IS LOUDER
ALL THE TIME IS MORE
BLEEDING ON THE GROUND
ALL THE FEELINGS SOUND

(JV-30, ca 1997) A simple rustic air with a sitar duet jammed into the bridge. That tells a profound and hearfelt story about city planning. Or not.
Once upon a time there was a boy with tunnel vision hidden far beyond the castle walls of a lifelong prison. Captive to a secret that kept him there under lock and key. Imagine was his sanity.
Thirteen days before thirteen he broke a sacred vow…
Jip1965 came round to kick my ass into gear and played a bit of rhythm i did the rest and then sent it off to the good Lady Jane to do her stuff and very nice stuff indeed! Cheers Me Lady!!! x
The Glory of Love – Tiggy Acworth 121003

You always make me happy, you always make me smile…

Haa...man I never heard a uke in this genre. Great move. It is pretty damn coconuts...lol! Great playing. The double time section ....damn cool.
Really diggin this. Love when the harp comes in, unexpected but sits in there perfect.
Trippy...almost Doors like.
Im in! Cool guitar style! I Like the fragmented chord tones and harmonics. You are a killer player. Thanks for posting.
As soon as it started I was captured. Taking me back to early Genesis or ELP....but all your own. Brilliant!
Dude , vocals are IT! Meaty guitar tone, growly vocals fit the story and vibe! Almost a Neil Young like solo in there...very cool! Superb.
Ahoooo.....im there man! Nice track. You have a knack for crafting some killer tunes. We can all join in...ahooooo!
What velvet underground would have sounded like with some distortion pedals. Heavy dissonant shiznit right there!
Nice movement and composition.
Hell yeah....right from go! Nice solid track guys. Almost like a bluesy version of Asia. This is great. Nice boards, vocals and solid rythym section
Dark movie score...intense.
Get out! This is incredible! jackpot! Great song and vocals...my my! Like the retro synths. Sweet!
A high level of melody and harmony coming from you once again.
This is right up the music score for a tv show or cartoon etc...I dig it.
Beautiful...that is exquisite playing...
Kind of reminds me of Cat Stevens. Nice songwriting and vocal
Really nice take on a blues with some outside playin. Great sense of harmony in your work here. Very good vocal to boot. Enjoyed whole thing.
Hey....nice job on this. Harmonies sound excellent.
Yes...it does have that Rocky Horror vibe.
Nice songwriting and performance.
