Well, this may be the final tweaking of this nice little sing along song...
I sent this fun little sing along off to Jim of MTC fame, and once again he has outdone himself... And I can't thank him and his wife (who appears covertly) enough…
Gather 'round the bonfire for some sh*t-kicking New England bluegrass, boys and girls! Feel free to sing along!

Summer's so damn short you don't dare to waste it

Well, here's a quick stripped-down version of a song that I wrote a couple of weeks ago and needed to record just to get it out of my head... Also my first crack at harmonizing with myself (kinda cool, but a bit weird for me to hear me singing…
After writing this song about our newly adopted dog, I asked Kavin if he like to play some slide guitar, knowing that he would come up with something terrific... I just had no idea how terrific.

So I dropped the guitar into DADGAD tuning for the first time, threw a capo on the third fret, rifled off something nice, and sent it to Movement to Contact for his contribution, got it back, did some mixing...
Here is the result.

Glad I had good timing! Ha! Eh, the vocals are way off and hard to hear, I'll give it another run for the finished product. I got to into the guitar riff and had a hard time staying still to sing.

Finally got this song balanced properly (after so many weeks of listening and editing, listening and editing). It somehow seems so long ago that we were all covered in snow now that winter has finally relented.
Ah... Glad I thought to come looking for this track again!... I thought you might like to hear my song with the same name (about one of my former students / piano players... who very much likes your music, by the way).

Well, after my conversation (if you could call it that) with my Seagull Mini-Jumbo, I started playing THIS song...
So now my guitar has filed for legal separation. I guess it never realized what true musicianship was all this time. It actually had the nerve to ask for Gary's email to see if he'd be at the Listening Party in Portsmouth (as if it thinks I'll still bring it along to meet Gary face-to-fretboard).
A brief glimpse, but that's all. Inspired by last April. It's for everyone, but no one in particular. Yes, this one gives more than a passing nod to Ham and Evans. Thanks gents!
Just by to listen to the awesomeness again... I actually had the crazy idea of trying to cover this song with just a stripped down arrangement on the acoustic, but when I mentioned it to my guitar it angrily asked if I was "friggin' nuts" and went off to gripe in the corner of the room, mumbling something about my inadequacies as a musician and foolishness to try to mess with perfection.
We aren't speaking now. I'll try to re-establish contact with the six-string's representation by offering to play some James Taylor on it later, but after hearing this track I don't think it'll be interested in my version of "mediocre guitar playing" (I quoted the guitar on that one) any time soon.
In 1979, my father came home from the record store with an album that forever changed my life, Pete Seeger's Circles & Seasons. Before I knew Pete to be the blacklisted folk icon that had been on the humanitarian side of every fight since…
This is just another middle of the road pile of trot, this time about the amazing instant classics I write, but am so protective of that I daren't let any of you hear. No one will ever hear them. Sorry, but I'm afraid this shite will just have…
Thank you for being you
No one else would do
Thank you for being you
You're all I ask for
Too many nights alone
tonight I'm coming home
open up the wine cos I'm
gonna be with the one who's shown
Me the ways of old
Women into wives…
Keith Landry used his considerable vocal talents on this song, and he made a decent song sound great. I added one or two harmonies, but the lead vocals are his. I think he did a great job. What do you think?

This one started as a the title line while driving in my car. All I had was the line and it's melody. I built the song around that about 6 months later. The lyrics are self explanatory.
As good an album closer as you will ever hear. Great big picture stuff here, Gary... Thanks for sharing the uncertainty through this perfectly crafted song.
A brief glimpse, but that's all. Inspired by last April. It's for everyone, but no one in particular. Yes, this one gives more than a passing nod to Ham and Evans. Thanks gents!
...And that guitar solo starting at 2:08 is about as ass-kicking as you will ever hear. If it doesn't put you in a good mood, find a bridge and jump off, for there truly is no hope for you any longer.

Sassy Nation version!
Sister Savage and Mr Sandbags collaborated on the original of this wonderful heartbreaker of a song. I've been playing it on the guitar the last few days and it always seemed to come out with a grittier tone, so i asked…

Glad I had good timing! Ha! Eh, the vocals are way off and hard to hear, I'll give it another run for the finished product. I got to into the guitar riff and had a hard time staying still to sing.
Enjoying the harmonies. Looking forward to hearing your new album.

Just giving this a little bump in honor of the release of Pete Seeger's "Circles & Seasons" album on CD... About to play my newly acquired copy!
Absurdly catchy track... I need more bah bah bah bah's in my day.
Very nice!
Damn good track. Just back for another listen. Damn good.
Great groove!
Now this I really like!
Great buildup to this song... Outstanding arrangement!
Really liking these stripped-down acoustic tracks. Well done!
Oooooh... This is good! Outstanding musicianship!
Happy to contribute ER!
Such a good track!

Ridiculously good track. Good to have more stuff from Gary up on alonetone... Now I need to go back and listen to some of the old stuff, too.
Love the cover!!! Loved the original... Much love all around!
