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.
Still having fun learning keyboard, and sticking to a determination to never write another sad song. This is just a practice ditty, but it's part of the angry phase of writing which might last a few decades. All of the noise is from the keyboard…
Nice. It's unique, though at the same time it reminds me of the early seventies post-VU New York scene. You're vocal has a Bowie-esque quality that gives the song a bit of gravity.
I'll be here if you decide to make a longer rendition.
(..also, thank you for the kind words on our silly music.)
The last couple of years have been soaked in sadness, numbness and loss, and it's not something I've tried to hide, even when making music. But I've come to realize that it's my own responsibility to lay forth the effort to find new happiness…
I sat on the toilet watching tik Tok and instagram as a man does when he's doing his business.I just hoped the knock on the door wouldn't happen till I'd finished...and a song came to me ...they come to me in some strange places…
Well the rain has come after such a lovely day yesterday so it must be time for a sad song
Heading to a lonely night
Its been nothing but a lonely day and
I’m heading to a lonely night
Where the darkness creeps and the dangers…
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…

Did you come from Heaven?
Cool retro vibe as usual. You lads always make me smile!
Retro sunshine, as only you can!
Somehow you make "you don't love me anymore" still sound upbeat and happy! La La La La La! Love it ;-)
Hi to Joe and and the guys. Nice polish on this. One of my faves.
This hits the spot! I agree with previous comments, Byrds, Kinks, something from a long lost era. The song feels very familiar to me. Very inviting.
great, and funny
You have great atmosphere in your songs.
hilariously good
This is so good! Sounds like the byrds era music. nice lyrics
Brings up the memory of Grateful Dead for me. The song just drifts along to a happy ending. I like the bantar at both ends too.
You guys have a very unique sound! It's very enjoyable.
You should write country music.
Wistful. Right up my alley.
You have a definite "Byrds" sound. really nice.
Playful sparkly stars!
I always get excited when the email comes telling me that you lads have uploaded a new track. Well up to your usual standards, fellas!
Quirky, but good..
Love that distinctive sound of the Proods!! Great lyrics on this....
this is a gooder 'un

Super....it's what I'd expect if the other Beatles ended up visiting the Band at Big Pink!

Indeed! Halloween track….no doubt about it.
@ 2:43 & 2:57…..magic.
Cool…. It sure does diverge from how it starts.
Wow. Very well done.
What is this, a FREAK-OUT????😃
Masterful…as always.
Cool….very cool.
Terrific. It’s funny, how impactful and thought-provoking just a few words can be.
Very nicely done.
Very interesting effect.
Amazing…I’ll ALWAYS come back for y’all.
Good tune…not crazy of the backstory. Oh well.
I love it!!!
This is not at ALL what I was expecting.
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!
