One of my personal favorite recordings from the 52 song MYTHOPOETICA demo collection, even though there’s a sound quality issue (the bass had a bit of a buzz). This was my first time using a wammy bar – I liked it!

HEAR MY FINAL SONG
Most were drinkin', four were playin' cards
Two were dancin', one he played guitar
He was singin' how she broke his heart
Some were smokin', smoke rings filled the air
One was flirtin', playin' with her hair
He was…

This is the bonus track for "The Best of GEM" playlist.
APATHY AND GREED
Apathy and greed is in the human seed
"I need more, to Hell with you" we say so well
How we live and play to get us through the day
Til we hear the bell that summons…

Trippy...but weirdly affecting. I found that circular blend of sound very moving. Tried to explain it to my 8 year old, but she didn't get it. I love music; sometimes it's just about the feeling - and that you can't explain.

I never meant to be insulting or belittling...your music is certainly more deserving than such a review. You have great things going for you, and I support you in every way.

Hey, thanks for the nice comment on the remix. It didn't turn out exactly as I imagined but that's the way it goes sometimes. I love doing that kind of work, let me know if you have another track you would like me to work on just for the hell of it. Chris

Political Folk song, predicting a grim tomorrow, scribed in an esoteric fashion.
(Coming into) WINTER TIME
Days are getting shorter; days are growing colder
Coming into winter time
Seasons changing faster for the demon master
Coming…
Political Folk. About the sexual hangups and illnesses of our culture because we don’t know how to talk to each other and our kids about sex and agree on what’s right or wrong and where the lines should be drawn.
NO ONE’S BIZ'
Education…
Lyrically one of my favorites, and actually one of my fave recordings despite the obvious sound quality issues that plagued my early recordings. I think it’s one of my better-composed Psychedelic Folk tunes.
IN THE END
Had enough of looking…
Hope you enjoy the trip. The bass line kept my fingers busy on this more aggressive Psychedelic Folk tune. The poem is actually three crammed into one, all about the same dream.
LAST NIGHT
With a subtle touch
I have said enough
But you…
New stuff has been slow in coming for me lately, but I found this lurking on my hard drive from a while back. Frankly don't remember how I did it except that it was all live to 2 tracks and at one point one of my synth patches glitched out on…
This is quite a groovy, psychedelic number. It's the kind of recording that, if she were a woman I'd just met on the street, I'd encourage her to come home with me. But she is a bit short. Perhaps you can expand on this track someday -- alert me if you do.
Here is a John Lee Hooker Song that Buck and I used to sing in Duluth. We were playing in a group called *"THE LARRYS"*
I love Bucks harmony on this!
I moved away a couple years ago, and Buck stopped by for a visit last Friday. As you can…
Hearing a John Lee Hooker covered on a banjo -- now THAT is different! Great job. Enjoyed the sounds and I had fun tapping to the groove. Sexy bass! The harmonica is a big, capital WOW! I've missed ya, man!
2nd song form the Bunker Sessions 2013..
Sunshine
The flower blooms all by its self
With the love from the sun and nothing else but a little rain and life becomes real
We need the sun and here it is
It sits above like gods…
New original from me, hot off the old wotsit.
When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…
Wedding march written a long time ago for a friend and a failed marriage. The song symbolizes hope and trust in the face of fear. The composition is all that's left of that now, but, it still means something. Not our usual, so please don't…
As a surprise for the missus (she gets out of hospital tomorrow after a 9 week stay) I've revamped a little ditty I wrote for her. I thought I'd put an Elvis slant on it including the ridiculous club style ending. I also slipped a bit of a British…
Most of the lyrics written in 1999, a tough year. Many thanks to JB for his awesome screaming lead playing (done first take, I should add!!!) and to LadyJane for supplying some oooo's. (anyone needing some vocals - send her your song!)
Love what your vocals and lyrics did for this song, and the harmonica is a tasty seasoning on top of all that. Greg and Steve did fab jobs as well. This one deserves many more faves and plays!
Once upon a time, a man couldn't think of a song to save his life, and then one night it just came together. I miss the cello though. (all recordings are a work in progress)

The single coil sound of my new used PRS guitar just got me in the funk. Had this partial riff on a Sony walkman from 10 years ago, decided to fill it out a little.

Interesting song lyrics.
Nice guitar and atmosphere on thisun.
Very cool song, love the feel...Great job!
Nice Johnny Cash feel! Love it! Keep up the good tunes! Thx for the kind words :-)
Slinky and very cool. Loving your late night gravelly vox...
Oosh! A touch of Elvis Costello in your tone here? Very cool.
Fabulous premise - and a wonderful collaboration, guys.
Trippy...but weirdly affecting. I found that circular blend of sound very moving. Tried to explain it to my 8 year old, but she didn't get it. I love music; sometimes it's just about the feeling - and that you can't explain.
Excellent!
Suzy Creamcheese alive and well in 2015? I just had some sort of weird flashback to a college FM station around 3 a.m.

good message and reminder!
There's that ending thunder again!
Had to listen twice. I love the tone you have on the guitar......
Very catchy my brother. Nice.
I rather like this.

I dig your strumming technique in this number! I also enjoyed your handle on the vocals -- very psychedelic! All around, a very groovy tune!
Dig! Enjoyed it! You've got a very groovy, cool style -- Rock on!
Gorgeous!
Quite lovely indeed!
Rock on! Very cool. Nice job!
Cool lyrics! Nice arrangement. Sweet melody and vocals.
Rock on, y'all!
Dig the Late '60's Psychedelic flavor! Rock on!
Love what your vocals and lyrics did for this song, and the harmonica is a tasty seasoning on top of all that. Greg and Steve did fab jobs as well. This one deserves many more faves and plays!
ROCK ON!
I dig this one too! Rock on!
COOL!
ROCK THE PHUQUE ON!
Fabulous, beautiful, delicious!
GROOVY!
FABULOUS!
Cool job, y'all! Totally. Love the drifting BG vocals. Great song and great performance and a fabulous mix-down job. FAB -- ROCK ON!
You better trade-mark that rift -- too righteous and ripe for exploitation!
