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…

Yesterday's the past, tomorrow's the future, but today is a gift.
The cat is on the chair
And I watch him as he stares
The sky is changing fast
I see the boats sail past
And the winter's closing in
I can feel the changes from within
Tomorrow…
Whispers for dark words in my subconscious
The belief that reality doubles with your delusions
A thought that a handshake was once considered currency
Or a realization that man is the only predator you fear
Radioactive soul
Ain't got nothin…
I started this thinking it would be a tune with the emphasis on my guitar but as it progressed I heard horns and then all these other things happened and this is what I ended up with.
Well, this started with a ukulele riff and then kind of took off from there. I enjoyed rockin' with the uke ... added a guitar rhythm, a bass track some drums and vocals and here we go! I've played in a few bars over the years and have seen my…

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 :)
