Had written this one many years ago. I had it recorded originally in a different key and with different instrumentation but it I just was not happy with it. I deleted the original lyrics for the chorus and added a bridge section and lyrics. I…
The core of the music is heavily inspired by Joni Mitchell. Its been spinning around for years in my head so hearing this song finally recorded feels good.
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…
billy boy where did you go

Wonderful song, James, very innocent and dreamy. It builds in increments very nicely and is well paced. Has a sort of Blue Nile meets Peter Gabriel flavor.

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…
Okay Andrew R. , this ones for you bud. Had a little fun with it in the intro. That was the surprise.
I put the bass line down and arranged the drums Saturday morning and returned later that night about 10:00 pm . I worked until 2 am and laid…

Hello I'm Taylor and this is my first single. I wrote this back in 2011 without intention of releasing it, but after my best friend committed suicide in February of 2012, I decided to release it and dedicate it to him. So this is for you, David.

A song for a man that has played to thousands who passed him in church street whilst he busked with all his heart.
This song is to pay tribute to a man that inspired me to play Live. I even had…

infectious, James I love this one. Faved on the spirit trail
Wow- great job on your Hendrix covers! brings me back
Wow! Nice job!
Interesting sounds. Really captivating! And like *Breaking Light* says . . . Let's see the Belly Dancers!
Great playing Man!
I'm envisioning buxom bellydancers. I like this.
I really like what I'm hearing from you ... inspiring ... worldly influenced ... experimental and yet very melody driven. Really enjoyed this James...
love this.......so atmospheric. Perhaps we could collaborate on something one day
GREAT sounds!!
This is... interesting... I wish I could favourite I.O.C's comment too lol

Holy Moses...Incredible!
Very nice tribute.
Good track here. Diggin it.
I like it....cool take on it.
Lead master! Nice playin!
Solid track!
Great track...one of the best I have heard yet! Superb!
Right off the bat you know its great. Fabulous. A special.musician right here.
Nice biting soloing man! You on FIRE!
Cruisin a hog with a babe on the back . Thats what I am feelin here.
With a milk chaser....like that solo tone in there. Nice playin!
Hell yeah....always slammin the blues. Feel like I am in a texas roadhouse.
Really dig what you did here. Totally captured it.
Vocals sound like Phil Lynott on this one. Without the drums the guitars create a chaotic setting. Cool approach.
Reminds me a bit of Beck. Especially your vocal. Outside the box approach intrigues me here.
Alot of blues in these song. Add it to the list of goodies. :)
That is so cool. Nice songwriting. Would I be correct in saying you wrote this in like a stream of consciousness approach? A very warm song . Lovely.
Thats pretty inventive. Almost sounds like a koto sometimes. The section at 2:50 sounds very Jimmy Page-ish.
Has a old Ziggy Stardust feel. Those cool Mick Ronson like double guitars and dark lead tone.
Holy shit! Its Louis Armstrong! Belting it out right out the gate. Heavy Low Down Blues. Neat track!
