I usually like lyrics, but in this case (to answer your question) less is more. I like the way this hangs together on it's own.
As I said earlier, VERY PRETTY

Had the blues in Alabama
Had the blues in Texas too
Had the blues all over
Now I 'm givin' em to you
And if you don't want em
You know what you can do
You wont find me I'm goin' ta run and hide away from you
Because I see trouble
Trouble…

Yesterday's Dreamer
Yesterday's dreamer sat on the sidewalk
Trying to find a way through his clouded mind
There was no rhyme or reason
To why he was feeling so down inside…
So MTC put out [this wonderfully sparse instrumental piece](http://alonetone.com/mtcband/tracks/shadow-of-myself) and a vocal line just jumped out at me. Then some harmonies jumped out as well.
i was trying to work on a piece for a shark video of mine, but this is what came out instead,, my piano moments collections are the small musical threads that emerge amongst/while i am working/thinking about other things,,,
How many nights am I just about to hit the sheets for the night and then a riff appears. I'll just rough record it but it always turns into a late night.
This is a rough demo recording of a solo marimba composition from 2000. This is part 3 of a 3 part piece [1. Once (marimba) 2. Twice (marimba) 3. Three Times (marimba)]
A blast from the past! This 100% improvised track was recorded in two passes in 1994 by Bassius-O-Phelius, a duo consisting of myself on bass and clarinet, and my friend Mark Bergen on Farfisa organ and Wurlitzer electric piano. It's probably…
Oh yet another nostalgic blast from the past. I found this unbelievable backing track surfing the web some years ago. I usually never use backing tracks because they usually suck bad . But this one is like having mitch and noel at your side. I…
Electric blues. Recorded 2007. I was learning how to use my DAW and trying to figure out how a one-man-band could get to sound like a bunch of old bluesers in a sweaty bar...

cool track,nice blend of instruments....cheers Jarvo
Very nice memory. Sounds like your father was a good man.

One of my favourite Christmas carols beautifully played sir.
Dreamily. Singing, being intimate, should not destroy magic here. The main thing - do not overdo with it ;-)

Ah, a wintry treat!
I missed this one too! Suhweet bluesy gem.
Man- this is cool as all hell! Missed this one of yours
Very nice Kavin! I am really digging this one, it doesn't need a thing :)
this is so beautiful as it is, think anything else would detract chappy. just great as it is
Excellent. I like it as it is!
Really cool how the auto swell backs up the mic'd track so well.
Very nice man. I say run one with a vocal and one without. Let the listener decide. ;)
Well , I say its a great track on its own. If you do a vocal upload so we can a/b them I like iT!
Beautiful guitar track, Kavin. Maybe whisper-y vocals with heavy reverb or just a subtle accompanying guitar might add just enough.
P.S. I don't know about "ruin" with a vocal part, probably not "ruin" but it does hold up nicely as is......just my penn'orth. Jarvo
I did not know ol' Gustav had written this ...very nice arrangement... Jarvo
Very enjoyable song. I'm always a sucker for acoustic guitar!
Thanks Kirk. One channel is dry miked guitar with SM57, one channel thru the DL4, auto volume swell setting.

Thanks all, a few more to come, I don't have wifi these days so my internet use is sporadic. @Slkrell: it's an Edirol (roland)R09 wav/mp3 recorder.
So good. It's all here, the songwriting, playing and singing. Wow.
Nice rave up ala Yardbirds.
Very nice, gents. Love those harmonies!
Really beautiful, RL

Yeah! Has a nice live sound to it, you nailed that.
Lovely duet (with yourself?)
Nice time-trip back to the 90's. It wasn't such a bad time was it?
Wonderful compositions and musicianship!
Sounds like an out of body experience.
Nice chill jazz jam, go Otis!
