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.

Still haven't got the headphones on it... but it's turned up LOUD this time :)
I can hear all the sparkly and shiny bits properly now - I could tell they were there, but I had to have it very quiet last night...
Love the guitars and the organ. Love where the vocal sits.
Nice. Very nice :)

Just read the "About" blurb (it wasn't there when I first listened). I've only been hearing it on PC speakers so far... but it sounds to me like "enuff is enuff" was the right call. I'll give it another listen on headphones tomorrow.
The missus likes it too :)

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…
