Simpler Days is a ballad by drummer-Matt.
While I was mixing it the words caught me off guard and the song stirred up some emotional stuff that I'm hoping might come through for the wider listening public.
This has a nice country joe groove and feel to it and I love the melody. It would help to share the lyrics they aren't really standing out enough for these old ears... not a criticism just sayin' I'm old. :) Thank you for sharing as always.
More groovy vibes from your friends here in Boston!😘
Lyrics-
Emily Cline couldn’t make up her mind
Whether to stay or to leave me behind
She’s etched in my memory permanently
But she couldn’t decide what she felt about me
They say…

Another Proods Rocker from Brian. I love his lead guitar on this one…sort of reminds me of Steely Dan, or some other classic rock tune.
More great stuff on the way….also, be sure to check out our remixed tracks.
Travel back with us to 1962…the Place, the shores of the River Mersey.
Umbrella Book is a song about a book….eh, I’m not gonna explain it to y’all.
Slap on a pair of drainies and some Italian heeled boots and you’re on your way to some nostalgic…
Hey gang! It’s us again, The Proods…thousands of followers worldwide!
Here’s another track by Brian…channeling his inner metal, though we all tend to swing towards 60’s pop.
It was fun working on this, though I prefer the OTHER 1960’s style…
Yes…we’re TRYING to do an AC~DC thing here.
The song was written by our lovable drummer Matt, but we all had fun working on it. (The Angus-style guitar lick was mine.)
As always, the song is introduced to the band, kicked around and recorded…

-Mrs. Groovy Sunshine-
Lyrics…
As the shadows stretch across your dark and lonely room
and your record player fails to chase away your gloom
I want to hold you tight, and tuck you into bed at night
I just hope that you’re alright, and I can…
This song was written after I had watched a documentary about Jonestown, which featured music from their choir. They were very talented and I couldn't help wondering if any of them had survived. I'd like to think that there were a couple of 'em…

Lyrics…
I come from a place called “ Am-e-RI-ca”
Naw, you don’t come from “ Am-e-RI-ca”
I come from a place called “ Am-e-RI-ca”
Naw, you don’t come from “ Am-e-RI-ca”
You come from Usa
You come from Usa
You…
Ok, I know that it appears that The Proods have been posting so grim music of late, but this song started out as an homage to one of the Lady-Proods, and just kinda got away from us.
More stuff following….bright, chipper love songs.

Chris sent me over this track and i got to wondering what i could do to add to it. The tragedy of the Russian plane flying back from Egypt came to mind .....
CHAOS
The chaos of our time
rules our minds
The crazy
trust in chaos
Chaos will…
First totally self-indulgent solo work in ages. Started as something to prove I can still make time while I'm in nursing school, and turned into one of the best things I've done in years.
What happened to the colors of expression in the arts? I miss the 60's and 70's. Enough said.
Notes from my rock and roll music theory class...
Find a riff and milk it! Check .
Find a four chord bed of lettuce to put that wonderful salad…
This is a beautiful emotional song telling the sad story of the singer. It describes the emotions of the singer in a precise way.

I just might be hiding behind your bedroom door
you might find me lying under your bed, down on the floor
You swear you hear the creekin' coming up the stairs
you got your eye on the peep-hole and nobody's there…
This short thing is the earliest guitar composition of mine that I can still remember how to play.
Original composition date unknown, although I'm pretty sure I played this at the old house we used to live in - so composition must have taken…
I really enjoyed listening to your latest batch of music. It brought to to places I wasn't expecting on a work day...melancholy places of my youth. Thank you for that.
This one is still in progress, Jon the guitarist sent me a riff which i stuck together to get a kinda structure...so this is take 1....
I'm gonna kill a Mockingbird
That mockingbird mocks me with your name
I'm still not over you and it's causing…
I really dig the beat poet groove of this tune ...bongos? Far out baby!!! The audio at the end nearly tore me to pieces! If you cats are firin' up the grill, I wanna be there man.

Bravo...I love the bass on this track. Amazing lyrics.
I like this very much...it reminds me of 80's alternative music that I still really dig.

You're on your way!
Wunderbar
