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…

This just pulled me right in! You have some GREAT tone on that guitar, and your fingers . . . How do you get them to move so fast?
This was a treat to listen to.
Found this old track while backing up my hard drive. It is an alternate tracked played at a slower tempo. I added a quick drum track and ruff remix this morning.
Having more fun with Hendrix. I tried to stay true to the original as far as using no overdubs. Just one guitar, bass, drum and vocal track. Kind of used a mix approach and used a bit from the record and a bit from his live performance in Winterland…
Part of a collaborative effort done here. My friend sent me these guitar parts which I arranged, twisted and morphed to create this. I added the percussion and other non musical elements thanks to my kids playing while I was experimenting with…
This is an invitation, with instructions, on how any AT musician can hop a train in the US and get to my house for a jam session. Figured the lyrics needed to mention all 3 of the collaborating musicians home towns cuz they all run along these…

It's a black night out without a silver moon
I can't face tomorrow it's coming too soon
I knew my love had something…
I asked JohnnyRobbo from over on the Cool-lab to do the backer for this one as our next Collab together and he's done an outstanding job on it ...I had the easy bit adding the words...Hope you enjoy this Led Zep classic......
How long before the Exodus ? Last one out turn the lights off……...

A follow up to Goodbye.......Reg got to thinking maybe he made a mistake.........
i’m a fool for saying Goodbye (Lyrics)
Everything’s cool
Everything’s Great
nothing left for me to break
i’m a fool for saying Goodbye

If you've known me a while you know at least one episode from the story of this song, involving a deep drunken state, hitchhiking in various states of undress, and stealing from a church. But hopefully not too many of you have seen the mugshot…
A saucy little ditty from the Jip and LJ laboratory. The first thing I've sung for 3 weeks (been resting a very strained voice - eek!)
I'm having a party, I'm inviting everyone
There'll be much frivolity, booze flowing, so much fun
I may…
Poor old Reg walks the roads alone....again......Acoustic & Vocal....
No-one don’t know nothing (Lyrics)
Life’s got a little crazy since it all went bad
the angels up in heaven are looking down at me real sad
cause no-one knows my name cause…
Igor sent me over this excellent Guitar track and Tiny was created.....Thanks Igor
Tiny (Lyrics)

with everything piled up inside his mind, like a layer ice below new snow
he couldn…
