This was a one of the versions of Stay I was working on from a year and a half ago. I put a mic in a narrow hall way closet and went in recorded the guitar and vocal simultaneously. Hoping to get a break in the action and get one of my new songs…

Cool bowling alley reverb sound . Ooow, nice pan on the drums.
This is working for me! Iike this a lot. Oh, here comes Sierra with
Our drinks. Later mate
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 , this may be my last Hendrix cover for awhile. I have been itching to record a few new original songs that are waiting in the wings. These covers were fun to do and I discovered alot about the songs I didnt no before. On this one I added…
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.

An old recording from 1997 done on a Tascam 4 track. Converted to digital from casette so the recording is warbly in spots.
I am currently working on some new songs so I decided to throw so oldies but baddies out there.

Wonderful cover of this tender love long. :) We always shoot the ones we love. Great mix, instrumentation and vocals. That 3:40'ish bit was very inventive.

This is an ode for a good friend of mine that had took his own life at the end of last year. I was in the midst of writing some other songs and it stopped me in my tracks. I just wrote basically how I felt about this tragic ending to a very special…
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…

Oh yet another nostalgic blast from the past. I found this unbelievable backing track surfing the web some years ago. I usually never use backing tracks because they usually suck bad . But this one is like having mitch and noel at your side. I…
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.

Very cool cover - your voice sounds excellent! Great cheeky delivery!
Fine tribute. A sadness we all share sooner or later.
...something very Dylan about it. Especially like it where you break it down to just your voice and the arpeggios.
Really like this one. So many references. The Band, Queen. Nice vocal. Love the progression.
Great guitar harmony work.
Freaking awesome guitar tones you've got over here; keep rocking!

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.
