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…

I got the speakers turned all the way up Gene!
We've been through a lot. Remember all the song writing challenges at EZFolk? I never thought I would have so many friends that I will never meet in person.
Your last song is something to be proud of. I was taken by the lyrics bouncing between acceptance and denial. Steve mentioned the chord changes. Mark talked about the weight of the message.
We were honored that you asked us for a little help.

Greg, Steve, Mark:
I am so touched, so moved. This final mix down brought a tear to my eye and a chill to my bone. Y'all handle this song with great care and delicacy and made a marvelous bit of music. I'm right proud of all of you and my friendship with you. I'm very lucky to have had this chance to make this beautiful song with such beautiful souls with what days I've been graced with. Thank you all so very much!

A Sea Shanty with a bit of Psychedelic seasoning. Guest artist Starry Nightmoth performs the “harmonica” on a Yamaha KB as the song fades out.

A fun little Blues jam. The BG rhythm/drums were generated with the Yamaha E313 KB. All other noises are my fault.

If someone can do some Bodhran drum in the final mix it would add a lot. Rick's songs always had the beat and place for one in them. Great job Greg. Great lyrics Mr. Mann
This is the bonus track for "The Best of GEM" playlist.

we went for a few days holiday up to the lake district and stopped in a Wigwam by Coniston Lake the weather was great it was relaxing and being surrounded by beautiful scenery it was the perfect break.... i recorded this on the MBR and then had…
Yeah, dig! This seems a different style for you, and it really works for me. Your vocals are clear and clean and coming across quite nicely. I like it! Rock on!
Continuing the delay project of the last several nights spun off by Sunday's inspiration. This piece recorded on 12-string, heavy delay and overlay. Stay tuned for where I'm going...

Happens to me often when I determined to perform a song in one key and my vocal chords are determine not to function in that key. But I like what you pulled off -- works for me!
LYRICS:
With Or Without You
Try to get along but it takes two
It’s a Whole lot of me and not much you
Working myself right to the bone
Thinking that I am all alone
Just like a monkey up in the tree
Throwing your feces straight…
Such gorgeous picking, and awesome vocals, and as I said below from my Merry Bear account, fabulous lyrics. It's an overall brilliant composition. You really have reached a higher level, and you were up there to begin with. <3 <3 <3
I was reading a book in my lounge and started to feel as though someone was watching me. It was silent in the room, the TV was switched off as was the radio. I noticed the web-cam on top of my computer but that was switched of too so i couldn…
I wasn't expecting this -- very unlike what I'm use to hearing from you! But it's very cool! Rock on! I don't give a damn about what the thought police think of me, that's how I feel about it. I'm not ashamed of being me. I feel sorry for them. Groovy recording, duuuude!
Stevie Ray is the reason why I picked up my guitar in the first place. I did my best to mimic him throughout my short 8 months of guitar playing, then I realized I was going nowhere. So instead, I sought to develop a style which would make Stevie…
With a little help from some of the lyrics of the Doors descriptions of the uncertainty of the 60's Reg has decided to do a kind of Punk song from both sides about the trouble in England which seems to be igniting the youth to set light and loot…
Reg heard this collab (Quarter of a 60th Djörk (M.T.C.) and thought it brilliant, the music made it so easy to put the words to, a story of holiday romance.......with a bit of Tom Jonesing going on..........Thanks Djork and M.T.C for letting…

An EVH-inspired instrumental. I couldn't come up with a fancier name, so Boogie Train it is! This is straight up Hard Rock 80s style. No dabbling in other genres to mess up this song. Heh. Leave some comments if you please. Believe it or not…
The best music is always created in a burst of emotion, when the passion is still hot and your heart burns with fire. I finished this song in just one night, in my frantic attempt to capture the emotions I felt then.
"The only shelter I had…
Thank you Steve Cross for coming up with with the perfect drum and rhythm track. This guy did it exactly according to my specifications.
As for the song itself, it's different music. You need a certain level of musical talent to comprehend…
I've given this a bit of a twist ....Big E sat on the settee bored so i got him to work..hope you enjoy...another for the John Lennon Jukebox on the otherside....

Paul Siegmund turned me on to you...
Thanks, Gene. It's been a pleasure accompanying and listening to your music! I'll always treasure our exchanges.
*AND NOW THAT I'M LOGGED IN* . . . . . It looks like I have accidently added a little humor as well.

Comments made by Gene Eric Mann
Yeah. Rock on! What a choice guitarist you are -- there are guitar players, and then there are guitarists. You are clearly the latter.
Are your hands made of Jello?! How in the hell?! Amazing -- I'm floored.
Yeah, dig! This seems a different style for you, and it really works for me. Your vocals are clear and clean and coming across quite nicely. I like it! Rock on!
Just listen to it going the other direction -- sounds good being launched into the sky too!
I like it in this direction -- I'm downloading it so I can hear if I like it going in the opposite direction. Rock on!
Happens to me often when I determined to perform a song in one key and my vocal chords are determine not to function in that key. But I like what you pulled off -- works for me!
Well this is a trip!
Dark, cold, lonely, lost, haunting, the sounds I imagine echoing the realm on the other side of death.

Digging your picking style -- sweet!
Get down! A fun listen -- definitive grooviness! Party on!
Works for me!
Totally groovy!
Digging the heck out of this one -- fabulous!
This one is particularly tasty -- it grooves together nicely. Rock on!
Yes, I love it -- Rock on!
You have an interesting approach to doing vocal tracks -- certainly out of the box. Your instrumental tracks are quite tasty.
The vocal track peaks in a few places, but otherwise it's a beautiful mix down.
Already left my thoughts as Justin Otter (just another guy) Guy, but had to come back as Gene Eric Mann (generic man) for another listen.
