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.

I couldn't listen to it the whole way through, something tells me it's so beautiful it could make me weep a bit, and when I'm in the mood for that, it will be a great release. Really beautiful!

Woo! Something different. Yep, stripped down works... Like this one a lot.
I suspect that you have the same problems that I do with "stripped down" lol (I'm sat on something that's probably "done" - actually Mrs Russe sez it is - but it feels scarily naked to me!)
And that guitar midi controller does the job. Now you've said it, I can hear some "guitar thinking", but I wouldn't have questioned it at all if I hadn't known. Mebbe I've got to get me one...

@Tess,
Its played using a YouRock guitar midi controller. I play it fingerstyle for the most accurate piano affect. It does the trick. I am using a vsti called PianoOne which is sounds most realistic for a free plugin.

Gene has done a superb job with the music and the mix ....i had the easy job of singing it...bought back a lot of memories of youth and Motorbikes hoe you enjoy as much a s we did doing it..........
More ambient experimentation with my fretless guitar and Roland GR20. This time I used some sounds from the magnetic pickups as well as the midi pickup. Kind of a cheesy synth patch I know, but it was working for me!
A little something i rustled up the other day and finished off today!
Fender Jass Bass,Fender Strat played through a pod through a simulated tube amp,drums programed using ezdrumer,howls and sreams in pain,cheers!
I got me a new mic and a pre-amp and I picked up the Jumbo Eko (I'll do this again when my fingertips have recovered). I tried to do finger picking when I was a teen, but didn't pursue it as it seemed like too much hard work at the time. Today…
I trust this song is an encouragement to you...we are not alone.
There is an intimate Divine closeness that we are invited into...moment by moment.
I am so thankful for this...
You are with me now
You are with me now
Within this sacred moment…
This is a collab song with MTC. I almost hated adding anything to it cuz the first track he sent me was kickass vintage Jim. It totally changed flavors in the collab process, but still one of my favs
M E L I S S A Key of G
These are letters I like to say - M E L I S S A
These are notes I like to play……
Letters that sparkle. Notes that jingle
Make a little song in my heart
There’s a song in my heart today - M E L I S S A
I wish…
Didnt mean to have a political slant but had just got denied my large order soft drink in Manhattan.
All thats left are the small sodas with the "NY loves big cans" tee shirts

First of all, heartfelt thanks for your compliments. And...this is an absolutely beautiful track!
Nice one!
Guitar piano? Holy Wow. Nice vocal.
great voice, vox, didn't remember that from prior listens. Terrific.
I couldn't listen to it the whole way through, something tells me it's so beautiful it could make me weep a bit, and when I'm in the mood for that, it will be a great release. Really beautiful!
Loving the guitar piano......great vocal too
Very nice.
You have a great voice, goes wonderfully with the piano. I enjoyed listening.

You're playing these keys? Love it!
Very intimate - lovely autumnal theme. Always enjoy your stuff, James. Very beautiful, tender composition.
This sounds great! Straight to my Piepod! LG

Like it better than the original. One of the best covers done here. Slays!
Oh you need to get some lyrics on this asap! I dig it.
That synth guitar can be addicting but when you find something that feels right its hard not to go with it. This is awesome.
Nice arrangement. This is another gem.
Hell yeah. That is sweet.
How cool is that! Superb once again.
Always enjoy this power blues. It has renegade whiskey breath of fire strapped on!
Oooh...soundscapes ...love it.
Alice was just in town. Nice take on this one gents!
That is a beauty! Sweet vocal and harmony..love the added colours and crisp recording.
The Mac..new it had that british blues sound from the start. Bitchin tune. Like that solo in there.
Spacey blues take on this one...very cool...has a ZZ top feel in the vocal.
Spot on double guitars and punch again...very cool subject matter and writing.
Enchanting once again. Such a pleasant message.
Very Jeff Beckish !
These are great collabs you done did do gents! Way to think.outside the box and add all these cool elements.
Has a almost Floyd like feel. This is superb collab. Love all the guitar colors.....they are everywhere.
Cool tune. What a refreshing throw back.

layin it all out there! Nice rythym.in your vocal!
