Found a interesting sounding indian instrument via the computer world and strummed out chords on my lil midi guitar. Added some percussion, strings and a flute.
Did this many years ago. It came together very quickly. There are know synths, all guitars and backwards vocals, sped up vocals, detuned vocals.....whacked sounds. I wrote the lyrics on the spot. I love its deep personal message...lol!
This was a collab between my old friend Joe and I from a couple years ago. I recorded the basic track and sent it to him so he could play the main melody/ guitar solo over it. I took the ending of the guitar solo section and reversed it to give…

Haven’t uploaded any material in ages! I have been building custom guitars which has been taking up some of my spare time. This track features my first guitar build which I am playing over a backing track.
Recorded this one as a test track to sync with the video I shot for it. I am not happy with the computer virtual amp guitar sound on this. I will re-record this and mic my amp for that real cranked 100 watt tube sound.

That’s some nasty slide you’re putting down. Ripping it with the Epiphone! Getting right down to the gristle...
...and thanks for listening to my songs and commenting.
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…
I'm sorry to hear about your friend.
I get scared sometimes when I'm alone too much & I think about the ways people who have taken their own lives affect me. I guess it's easy to understand that it's not a matter of finding a reason to do it; it's a matter of getting help before any action is taken, & somehow getting through the quicksand long enough to find a reason to be OK again.
Recorded Last Friday - I sprung this song on Mark Imsdahl while we were playing music together.
I thought he did pretty good for never hearing the song before.

Finally, finished this one. Its been a battle finding time and fending off a few bouts with allergies and colds etc...A very windy winter and early spring season in the desert was one of the worst in many years. Hoping to get to working on some…
I took this bus trip from Forth Worth, Texas to Wheeling, West Virginia and on the way home I jumped off in Cincinnati and bought a ticket to Nashville... Lots of stuff happen when you are on a bus and in bus stations for over 60 hours.

@ Greg,
No 12 string here , I wish I still had my 12 string. Capo on 5th fret. Thanks for the like Greg, really impressed with the your tunes. They are excellent songs.
I've been messing with Jip's Gong Bong! Enjoy :o)
Do what you do, do it for you
Make your imaginings come true
Follow your dreams and not the crowd
Be you for you and shout it loud, shout it proud, yeah
See your big dream
Show your true self…
THE WALK
I drove 400 miles that night
East of Dallas to Abilene
And the hopes that I held in my headlights
Were hopes like I'd never seen
She called me from work that afternoon
She said she'd be off about 2 AM
Said it would be nice…
Where did this song come from?
Let's blame Steve Krell for introducing the outlaw, misfits of society theme.
It was just a laps of judgment
I should have thought it through
I swung and then I hit him
And I did it all for you
He…
Stoner rock with a hint of Grunge. Inspired by Queens of the Stone Age, Kyuss, Monster Magnet, Masters of Reality, Karma to Burn, Joy Division, Fu Manchu, Nirvana, Clutch. Desert Rock. Space rock. Garage rock.
Where this came from, I've no idea !!!! Had the music track recorded, no lyrics, then had the first verse. The rest was wrote on the hoof, as I recorded the vocal. Plus I'm a non-believer, Oh well, Have Mercy !!!
