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…
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…
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…

This is pretty wacky and progressive ... sounds like this group of tunes was recorded with different equipment than It Takes a Village stuff ... just a different overall sound to the mixes ...completely different than what I have heard. You are quite versatile in your music.
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…
This was the first in this set of 3 songs I am posting. I was gaining alot of inspiration from the likes, of Justin Currie and Jackson Browne at the time.
Recorded using Reaper DAW & Jamstix virtual drummer software.
Good song great vocals!. Like the sound of the acoustic guitar and the electric is pretty tasty ... real nice job on the whole package ... everything well placed in the mix.

Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…

I asked my love to take a walk
Just a little old walk. Just a little old walk
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
If you’ll just say that you’ll be mine
And in no other’s arms entwine
Down by the banks where the…
Many thanks to Greg Connor for helping me with this track...I have been playing this Lindsey Buckingham / Fleetwood Mac song for a while, but could never sing it...so I recorded the acoustic guitar and sent it to Greg and he added outstanding…
Leave your best behind
They say your life is nothing more
Than the blinking of an eye
And everything you say or do
In a moment flashes by
And in the end what is left of you
Are the memories that unwind
They tell the tale of the one they…
