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.

Yeah you know what it is that I want
Oh you knew, didn't you, before I did?
How many times did you wonder whether I would dare?
Oh never mind...
Take off your underwear
Over…

dr alfredo de pietra on guitars and myself on vocal duties. a slighty different mix from the two versions at songcrafters.

Karma (Lyrics)
Somebody told me what the lover man said
And man did it turn out to be so true
If you take it
And you break it
You break that girls heart in two…

With My Sister Kathy Bores
Last Waltz Of The Evening
The last waltz of the evening
Last dance of the night
I’m making the most of each beat of my heart
Music plays and I’m holding you so tight
Hard to see it come to an end
But it’s going to…
Here's the Classic from Boston from that time when my locks were flowing and i was 3stone lighter....with speed Demon Gene doing the music and yours truly trying his best on the vocals...hope you enjoy as much as we did doing it.....
We played this song a bit different from the record. More heavy, we recorded a live rehearsal and added some vocal tracks. Recorded in L.A. by Brian Clark
So come down, and fade away,
The lights are still hanging from last holidays.
And the place in the dark, we'd occupy,
Is leaving my heart, feeling nullified.
So slow down, and walk with me,
Dark empty lanes, under heavy leafless trees…
Good song here. I dig your vocals and the distant vocal. I want the drums and band to kick in and bash away with that guitar riff. I still like the way its presented here. :)

Good one JR! Another Jimi favorite. Bring on the Hendrix covers yawl!

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

Easy listening music here. Very well done:)
Just dig this so damn much.
Great cover!
Thats some powerful gut wrenching vocals!
Very nice cover. Probably the best I ever heard like this!
Metallurgist! Cacophony of sound in the morn. Dont need my coffee now!
Yes! It has a ELO vibe. Very nice.
Incredible! This has stanky guitars and dastardly vocals that I have not heard before. Great job all the way around! Encore! Encore!
The beat boxing is bad ass...killer cut OC!
Very nice duet.)
This is great. Love the arpeggiation.
I could use a glass of rum! Jumpin tune!
Tuff vocals to tackle right there! Good job guys! I like the gtr harmonies. Killer.
Oooh! Great track.
Yessss! Nice cover.
