billy boy where did you go
sittin in a pile of snow
come on down its gettin cold
for the time is getting old
well we made our way to the old wigwam
frozen lake and wind was calm
standing bow did strike a deer
to feed the tribe…
A lil rocker influenced by some of my faves, Springsteen, Petty etc.. well i left my home and family
and made my way out west
i lost my job at the steel mill
im a hoping for the best
in this life
for my kids and wife
just outside of Davenport…
I have been wanting to do some Cream covers for awhile now and with the passing of Jack Bruce it seemed an appropriate time to record some sort of tribute to him and the band.

This is a bonus track of sorts for the mock EP It takes a village. I had the verse chord chages around for many years but just until last week the song and lyrics came together really quickly. I thought I heard a band arrangement originally but…
Had this one sitting around for a year of so. I revisited it on Saturday and put down a couple guitar tracks and did a quick mix and master session on it. The inspiration came from a really cool melody/guitar riff a friend sent to me. Right off…
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…

Came up with this chord progression on the bass one day and hit record for the hell of it. Came back to it and decided to throw a quick lil melody over it. I think this is going to close out the "Just a minute?" playlist so I can move on to music…

The Mornings Aint Warm

planted deep in the back of my head
are the seeds of things my daddy once said
and up sprouted this stubborn old tree
with fading roots and lofted dreams
there's still a couple of two by fours

Home Again
(boudreau)
I was brought up just north of New York City
Where the Merrit greets the Hutch
In a noisy house on a quiet street
Where the neighbors know too much
There's a weekend in spring when they throw out old things
and…
I started pickin' the riff on my godin acoustic/electric ... put it down and built from there but when came to doing some sort of lead I heard a bit of slide ... never really been a slide player but I new I had one somewhere ... searched everywhere…

I looked at all…
Next in the little pile of songs from the shoe-box. This one has the date 27th January 1994 written on it, but it's describing an episode from many years earlier when I was, I'm guessing, something like 12 or 13 years old.

She'll stick to you, Strange brew. I like the swirly feel.
Nailed it.
Sweet...LOVE this ! Great playing and feel !
Yeah, nice one. I'm with captgene - strong bass part and you're good to go.
Well done, slip a strong bass riff in there and a super hit.
Cool . Major bass , Blues twisted melody . A keeper. Develop this please
Too brief -- such choice guitar work needs more room to spread out and engulf the listener's soul.
Nice lil melody :)
Sweet, too short!
Oh yes, nice sounds.

Dig the compression and analog dirt.
These are all goodies. Nice rockers! Nice crisp guitars and spot on vocals and harmonies.....a trademark.
Really good song. :)
Immediately liked!
Incredible....nice work.
Impressive playing. Cant get enough.
Ahhh....nice take cant wrong with Stevie Wonder with a reggae vibe.
Classic....nice live cover.
Classic....:)
I am diggin all the horns....
Bad ass tracks here once again. Always love the upfront big guitars. Horns give it a Beatles feel.
Impressive vocals....love the tone of voice...very interesting and unique vision comes thru in these songs...
Ooohhh like that slide.....thats a bad ass blues tune.
Nice delivery....straight to the point and drug tested employees a bonus!
Oh wicked! Thatis roadhouse jammin! Reminds of Jeff Healy Confidence Man. Killer.
Bitchin tune.
Soulful...rewind play again...
Peculiar.....no resolve...experimental journey.
Oh yeah...like the riff and the tones....killer playing RJ. Solo style similar to early Alex Lifeson.
Those changing guitar tones are very cool...has a green day feel.
