Hello Little One
Hello little one
Glad I ran into you
Are you some kinda freak
Or did you escape from a zoo?
Ears like a fox, look like a dog
About as much hair as you'd…

She’s a cat and she’s a girl
But she’s not equal in this world
I am lord of all I see

A little birthday uke ditty, bookended by two improvs
So this is year 61
Made it this far
Let’s have some fun
Keep looking forward don’t look back
Time has a way of keeping track
Of joy and pain
We all live for love
Sun or rain

First in a planned series of American traditional folk tunes presented as simple guitar instrumentals.
Here's the lyrics if you want to sing along:
Oh, where have you been, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?
Oh, where have you been, Charming Billy?

Moonlight woke up, falling down
Why are you scared, free as a bird
Now that the heat…
One of my favorite recordings and favorite songs. The drums of this Political Folk tune was generated with the Yamaha E313. The lead guitar break needs replaced with a violin, but…

Well, I'm almost on a roll now - this little love song was written, arranged, and recorded in just a week. I've been meaning to attempt something like this for years, just never got round to it.
I'd actually settled down to finally record a…
Defiance, self-doubt, hubris, failure, choosing...It's all here to hear.
The title is a nod to my love of a certain guitar player and singer from a late 60's act; who's solo records were even better. The vibrato guitar is inspired by him…
Girls aren't like guitars.
They won't just sit around waiting for you to come up with something interesting to do
Girls aren't like guitars.
If you're having problems maybe it's because
Girls aren't like guitars

Ambient, building electric guitar instrumental, something like a cross between the late great Gary Moore and some softer stuff by Allan Holdsworth.

Sounds like you and Neil been in the same ditch. That is a compliment.
