I *think* I like this one more(?)
Feels a bit like more of a "guitarists" version? I was much more aware of "hey cool guitar" than one the other one.
I think it's one where you can do unlimited versions, and they're all as good as each as other and you won't be able to decide! LOL
I am currently working on a Concept album with a good friend of mine and great musician/ guitarist Chuck D. Although this track does not feature Chuck , it was developed based on the chord progression he came up with which opens the song up. We…

I threw this one together tonite/early am...yawnnnnn. Not an exact replica but always a tribute to Jimi's music. I was originally turned on to do this by some new free vst effects I found on the net. A cool fuzz face vst that is very realistic…
Having more fun with Hendrix. I tried to stay true to the original as far as using no overdubs. Just one guitar, bass, drum and vocal track. Kind of used a mix approach and used a bit from the record and a bit from his live performance in Winterland…
My first thought, honestly, was, oh boy, someone's messing with Jimi again . . . then I pressed play. This one is done with reverence, my friends. Excellent cover. Dig.

Such clean acoustic guitar sound. Like the way it grows/builds...how the sound of the voice fills out. Cool voice and song. Starts to sound like the Beatles at the end.

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…
I can't say just what it is I like about this but I do like it. Sophisticated yet primitive, world music sounds... I don't remember hearing anything quite like it.
Demo version of a song I've been messing with.
I know what they're missing... The only girl.
I know what they're missing... The one and only in the world.

I’ve come this way like those before me
And those yet still to come
It fills me with a sense of wonder
To watch the rising sun
how many times
how many souls
Have acted out these scenes
It fills me with…
I am working on some Mantra style songs...I hope this inspires you to press into the Mystery.
I am one face of the Divine...just like you are. Let's share our passions, our struggles, ourselves with one another. Let's grow in love...let us…
For you to speakSo it seems we lost our voice
Stripped down bare on copper line
Raw to subtle ears
I wait
On the line
I wait for you to speak
Of some good news to hear
While we talk ....
Can you speak your mind
I still wait for that old voice…
I must admit
I love fallen in love with you
It's not the easiest thing
but, what's a gal to do
I've been so good
I might even be a southern baptist
I must admit
I love fallen in love with you
I don't care that I'm just in the air
and another…
The imagery created in just 1 1/2 min is amazing. I am picturing an old house in the south, a big willow tree its dusk and a woman on the steps of the porch singing.

Reg went out last night to a bonfire party....Man does he meet some strange women...........so he got his £16 special down from the wall and penned this little ditty in rememberence...........
I felt her Pain (Lyrics)
i was the stranger in town…
This song started as the riff on my Strat while fooling around with some FX. I knew it needed to be a big dance number, and then realized there is a great story about the power of music and dance, which I hid in the lyrics. See if you can figure…
This one started as a the title line while driving in my car. All I had was the line and it's melody. I built the song around that about 6 months later. The lyrics are self explanatory.
Never been happy with the original mix as it butchered Phil's drum work. He did an amazing job, and deserved better. So this is better...not as good as his playing, but better than it was.

I was doing a search there on Yahoo

Thanks for listening.

Powerful You have some great sounding guitar licks here.

Oh yeah, this is a goodie. Love the sound. And that guitar playing with the old whammy - very tasty.
Wow the high register guitar tone is distinctive and super expressive. the back beat chord strokes are too cool. Faved
Instant fave! Absolutely gorgeous! A must share on our FB page! w;-)
Another good'n. Has some very beautiful and unusual chord changes in there. Takes me to some faraway windswept island.
very pretty and uplifting, hadn't heard this one yet.
Ya had me with the first lick. Nice. I love this song and this is a great cover of it. :)

Nice. :). Do I hear a KORG in there? T-series or M-series maybe?
*click* instant fave! Love the groove! w;-)
Nice voice AND MELODY.

Really nice! Keep on!
Awesome.
Big Sound I hope we get a chance to hear the whole album.
Sounds great,nice one!
There's nothing better than getting your voice back! Great track :)

Nice Stan. Very Soulful ...love how it opens up a bit at 3:30. Made my morning.
the guitars have a underlying feel dread just under the vocal. the emotion was captured perfectly.
Really good song KL. Probably the most honest way to display a song is to do it just like it was written. Top track.
this is excellent! kind of reminds me of Still you turn me on by ELP.
love the message. your spirit shines thru.
Love that line, Striped down bare on copper line. Very nice writing.
Damn rippin solo at the end man! Good God!Eating fretboards for lunch!
:)

Top notch! Has a Zeppy feel. Another good track.
I know I have gave your tunes an ear before...this is some magical stuff. I will be searching thru your catalog often...
This is down low. Painful is the feeling captured here alright.
this is awesome! I am love this style of playing right in the realm of Hedges and Andy Mckee.
Big and Bad is your signature!
Its like a beautiful mixture of Deep Purple, and ELO to name a couple.
I always felt ballads in 3/4 allow the singer to emphasis the vocal anx lyrics. This is a great example.
Nice lively pro mix, great song. Love that halftime section!
ahhhh....great rendition.:)
That is some skankin'funk.
Made a beautiful.melody even more enchanting.
