Summertime in Boston, and this little tune is about how it goes by way too fast. Some hilarious chatter between the guys before and after they kick of a pseudo-psychedelic groove that I hope you will enjoy.
Quirky sound... Shades of The Bonzo Dog Band. Love the contrast between the happy/upbeat sound and the darker subject matter. Looking forward to more :-)
A song about a free-falling ego-maniac...
You said "ha"
And we said "ah"
Now no one knows
How high you are
And you said "ha"
You were a star
A meteor
Now we don't see
You anymore
And you said "ha"
How wonderful you are
You're…

Not bad, the song has a very nice rythm to it! I think if you team up with a DJ on one of you next singles, it would surely be a hit in the charts. Nice work, can't wait for next release.

They tore down the theater, now there's nothing to do on those summer days, well anyways...Who cares?
We all drink black coffee, and we smoke and we talk about poetry, philosophy and fear...as days fly by another wasted year.
I finally left…
Two nights ago I dreamed this sad version of Help!
Today I put it down just to see what it sounds like. One mic, one take, one guitar, and one very dry voice.
Not intending to be self-deprecating, but if anyone with actual musical talent…
That something that summer brings along but we quell it, keep it wrapped up tight inside ....
I've got to ramble on
There must be something the night wants to share with me
It wakes me from my dreams when I’m not unaware
It feels…
"Gilligan's Island" was (pick one): (a) the stupidest sitcom ever produced; or (b) a brilliant piece of absurdist theater.
The correct answer may be (a), but if you chose (b), there is a good argument there. No matter what (and despite the number…
Just a little something to take off the chill of the recent polar vortex here in MN. Thanks for listening!!!
ODE to the LAST LEAF
VERSE 1
This season is ending
Last leaf on the tree
When you’re the last leaf
Let go and be free
Free…
Hi Brett...it's been a while, I'm tuning in exclusively to catch up on your BRILLIANT music! Starting with this one....AMAZING. Different from your music that I'm familiar with.
Hi Brett! Thanks for checking in. I've been away too long, trying my hand at other art. My fellow Prood members are itching to do some more music, so maybe soon.
I haven't logged in in a while, and I'm pretty excited to go through all of your tracks I haven't heard yet, so you're sure to hear from me soon.
Rock on!
So thought provoking. I’ve been finding that many of the musicians I follow are composing wistful soundscapes that invoke an emotional response. It’s like the musical world is trying to work its way through some heavy stuff. Well done, sir!
I kept expecting the chord progressions to go one way and then...ZANG! Caught me off guard every time. Great tune, awesome lyrics. I’ll be back to listen again.
Another tune exhumed from the past... 1984 to be precise. A 15 year-old angst-ridden vocalist wrote some words that went something like "Late at night... the shadows... creep across my wall". Happily, the song is musically much stronger than the…
Do you ever have an idea / song that you just need to get out of you and recorded, even though it's so rough that you'll want to re-do it over and over again? This is one of those for me....

Lovely slice of sonic sunshine.
Love these lyrics! "I kissed an activist, now Uncle Sam is pissed"... classic
ooh, this is great.
Nice one
Met her at Woodstock behind the tall green trees:) Like it

Breezy as ever!
Very bright! Very fun! :)
Nice departure from my usual diet. I love it!

Brilliantly original version. Love it!
Back for another listen... love it :-)
Love the retro vibe of this - quite "Byrds-y", great vocal harmonies. Thanks for the kind words on Slapshot, by the way :-)
Ah the worst kind of ending…but so beautifully weaved. Love your style.
Lovely stuff... reminds me of The Kinks :-)
love the guitar tone on this...great track...takes me back to a more innocent time ...which is a good thing...
Ah Boston! I've been there! Anyway, this is a quirky little ditty. Cute!
Instant sunshine!
Nicely done.

Nice….y’know tat ol’ Lennon intended this to be slow. Nice rasp.
Sorry about the trouble in ol’ Blighty! Nice that you can get some jam-time in before the whole mess comes crashing down.😃
Wonderful!
You guys are still the best!
I like your passion!
Hi Colleen, I’m happy that you’re still making music!
I told y'all I'd be back to revisit your music.
Hoorah!
This is perfect ambience!

The Pink Floyd vibe is clear and spot-on. Great track.
Love this. Moody and ambiguous…back in the day, this would have made a really cool b-side.
I like the sound of the electric guitar…it reminds me of classic 80’s rock. Your voice sounds great. Another gem!
Great work, man. You continue to amazing me with your gift for creating new sounds within the style that’s all yours.

I love this! 1984 was a VERY good year.
I still prefer the simple ones...too great!
Awesome! I've been off the grid for a while now, but I'll ALWAYS come back to hear your AMAZING music! Sorry I didn't check this out sooner, man.
