This song is about one of the Prood girls, who is a school teacher
….special THANK YOU to Colleen Dillon for her endless support and encouragement.
Lyrics…
As the shadows stretch across your dark and lonely room
and your record player fails…
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…

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.

We haven't been this excited about a track in a while.
Yeah, we're a little bit angst-y I'm afraid...musically anyway.\A special hello to our Alonetone friends from the grand production days...so glad to see y'all are still making music!

Once in a nightmare
I knew you then
I think we were related,
I'm not sure
maybe we were strangers.
We'd look in windows and climb
the trees that grew,
and if it'd rained outside
we'd take off our shoes.
And when I'd see you
I would…

I hope Brian (one of us Proods) will forgive me for posting this before we could get together to work on it further. He first played it for me a few months ago and I've been obsessively tweaking it every chance I could get.
I like to imagine…
This song is the result of exchanging "One Line Zingers" with my friend Tom last Saturday while playing a little music.
He challenged me to write a song about him and he would do the same at my expense.
The funiest song wins.

I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…
Here an acoustic trial session of a song I’m playing around with at the moment. It’s half in French and half in English for now. One day, when time allows me :-) I will add musical instruments. For now questioning myself whether to do keep this…
Improvisation of the traditional hymn popularized in the secular by late John Fahey and before Joseph Spence I think. Did this for this weekends Sound-In event and initially inspired by a hymn Paul Muller did. I did lap steel and looping in…
The circling of life
The ability to find your way
Like a compass in the night
And the coming of another day
It’s like when the stars align
You’ve been given just a glimpse of truth
And you think that you might find
The Optimism held in…
DOG PARK
Everybody meet me down at the DOG PARK
If you need me I’ll be down at the DOG PARK
Sunday afternoon and I’m bound for the DOG PARK
Everybody gets along at the DOG PARK
White and black and brown at the DOG PARK
Nobody’s looking…
Comments on The Proods's stuff
This sounds so good very groovy - doors vibes 😊
Love the new stuff, guys
It’s groovy alright, a great 60’s vibe. Mix the Kinks with the Dead and you get YOU!
Hhhhaaaa! Love this!!
Another beauty
Oh those lyrics!!!! Such vitriol mixed with the upbeat tone - delightfully dead but still living indeed! Well done!!!
Heyyy, nice to hear from you all again. Excellent song! It's very robust and autumnal. One of your better tracks (if not best) I think.
🔥
it can be lonely summertime alone
Oh my dear Proods! Such angst! I love this. The melancholy beach vibe is perfect.
:-) Hey Steve, I play bass too. Cool to hear your work. Likin' it.
Love the groove, and this is GREAT writing!
Good vibez
Cool old style rock vibe.
OMG! How fun to hear your wonderful music again!!! Love this one. Hope all the Proods are well in this world.
I like this....it's like a mix between the Dead Milkmen and the Monkees!
Hi Proods!
This was a good one.
~Hi Proods~
For a moment I was back in 1966. Good work!

Clean, Real nice!
I purchase the songs you sing.
Well done...again.
great vocals....amazing pipes you've got there!
Your musical output is commendable....I've been away a couple weeks and I come back to an album worth of new material!
Tres bien! Such a unique sound.
Great innovation....different and clever! Sounds like a lot of work went into this.
Really cool song!
So moody, great!
Been a while since I checked in, glad I did! This is so unique, I really dig it!!
Great feeling with this jam...full of good vibes.
Amazing...I was mesmerized listening to this.
Great Moody stuff. The imagery this song provokes sent me off to a Blade Runner/Star Trek-y place that I dig!
It's a RAVE!!!!!!!
SUCH talent.
This is really cool. I don't know how I'd describe it if I had to....fusion tech-jazz? It's like great alt bands of the 80's in hell.
Yes...amazing, again
Love it!
Great cover!
Great harmonies....you've got a little Neil Young thing going here.
