A simple song in Open D.
It's a cold, and frosty night,
Stars are shining,
Shining bright.
A wintry breeze, through the trees,
Stoke the fire,
Beat the freeze,
It's a winter's tale.
Mull the wine, and cook the fare,
The larder…

A song about a few characters I remember growing up in Portsmouth, UK. Sadly they all had Mental health problems, but 50 plus years ago no one really cared.
I misread that as "tropical" ... I do need to get my eyes tested ... so I found it wasn't quite as cheery as I'd first imagined! Cool tune, and sentiments I share sometimes.
Is this autobiographical? I feel like I hardly know you 😆
Oh, I just got to the lead break. ..... very nice.
Another foot tapper. You just keep cranking them out. By the way, I used to live and drive Hwy 23 every day for years.
(Remastered 22/10/2021)
I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too.
For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…
A little celestial inspiration for this song.... I started it and Greg and Mark helped me finish it and then record around my kitchen table. Feel free to howl if you like it!
Blood Wolf Moon
VERSE 1
Blood wolf moon this January…
In the early 70s I lived near Haight Ashbury, played music and was deeply involved in that scene. Wrote this song a few years later about those days. Recorded in one take at Rosewood studios..not bragging on the one take, we booked a full day…
Boy oh Boy.... Have I ever missed playing live with these two wonderful guys!!!! Recorded last week in my front yard with Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren. An original tune I wrote from the times before the pandemic, but all the sweeter to be able…
When you C reach the Em point
When it’s F all in the rear view C mirror
And Am reflection is your G only point of C view G
You C feel it Em inside
When it F becomes so C clear
There’s Am nothing that G you can C do
F Hold on to G memories…

When you say those three little words close to my ear
And they buzz inside there meaning is clear

I've been watching the wire and this came to mind thanks for listening
Walking down the street
you can see them standing there
Their all selling a high trying get yah to the sky
Huddled in a circle muffling their words

A little dark......
I stand at the junction between life & death
As the count begins to rise
The darkened moon weeps but is blind to the grief
Of the ones left behind
We weep but we can not hide
Daytime nighttime the hunt for…
It is Sunday so i'm looking out for some promise ..........
Theres that promise out there in the air again
as the dawn rises gently up from the moor
the scene is set these are a sequence of events
that have led us on

I was listening to Paul weller's new album Fat Pop and was quite impressed by one of the songs using a flute in amoungst the other instruments so i thought i'd give it a go and got in the flow ....Thanks for listening

Written for my sweet Dad... and for anyone else going through the hard times at the end, this is for you too

Lovely just lovely!
Oh yeah. This is a nice one. Love the lyrics.
Introspective and touching. A heartfelt emotional message.
beautiful lyrics and raw feeling - very nicely done.
Yes .... I like this!
Oooh yeah. Saw the notification for this yesterday, that's why I popped in, to check it out. This is a mighty fine "just a little ditty"
I stopped by for another listen after a ripping cold weekend. Happy New Year Roger!
Perfect song for the weather here! Snow is falling and your lovely lyrics are the perfect backdrop.
I love that twelve string sound. This song reminds me of cuddling up and watching the winter weather out the window. Beautiful.
sounds like a colorful bunch indeed!
cool shimmery chorus effect and really nice vocal harmonizing
Cool song. But, if you've been sat on it for a few months, she's probably forgotten you! OR.... yes! ...maybe she's sat on a similar song herself?
“Rain is Falling” let’s hope the Sun will peak out soon.
Melancholy indeed….

Second listen, lovely.

Beautiful song, great imagery. The view from your window is a LOT better than mine.
I love that 12 String. Excellent song.
Nice early J.J. Cale vibe going on.
