First of all guys, sorry haven't been about for weeks. Been down with Flu & this & that, got to say this song didn't do the throat much good. So many takes, as I coughed up my lungs half way through !!!!! Anyway, an old rant I wrote 6…

Love the message! Smaller living quarters, higher taxes, no jobs. Well done. Having a bit of the flu keeps it real. I had just finished a bout with that myself. Get your flu shots!

A complete re-vamp of a 6 year old song. Sure I wrote the lyrics while on holiday in Majorca, rewrote a couple of lines, picked up me ole guitar last week & just played this tune & it all seem to fit. Could need a lay down now !!!!

Fingers crossed !!!!!

I enjoyed twanging lots of guitars.
For best results, copy to, and listen via a slightly stretched C90 cassette.
P.S. Yes, I love Cocteau Twins. No, I can't sing like Elizabeth Fraser.
Lyrics:
Don’t you bow, to kings and queens
Rise above, everything
If the devil beckons, and the angels sing
Don’t listen to, anything
The time has come, to raise your hands
C’mon everybody, take a stand
Higher, Higher, Higher, Higher…
One of my other hobbies is watching wildlife in the area. I'm the happiest with a pair of binoculars around my neck and my hiking boots laced up.

Dakota County / February 2014
Some time ago whilst YouTubing, I stumbled across several videos of old seafaring songs or sea "shanties". Unbelievably, that triggered some very ancient RAM of elementary school music classes wherein we were taught several of these songs. And…
I'm doing just Fine with Buck Erpestad. Check out Bucks music here:

Here is what Buck said he added:
"So I used the tremolophone (vibes) and tuba sounds in Garageband and played them on the keyboard."
This lil Hendrix tune has been in my head lately so I decided to take a stab at it. Every time I attempt a cover of one of his songs I discover something new. This time it was his uncanny sense of phrasing and harmony within a blues context. It…
I did this as a way to practice singing....why I am trying to learn to sing at 64 is a little strange.... I wish I had leaned to sing when I was starting out..but I always played in band with lots of singers and never had to sing much…
A bit of nonsense maybe ?? Started off as an instrumental then these words popped out. Call me lazy if you must, but couldn't think of more !!!
C'est la vie !!!!
Comments on Roger M. Harris's stuff
Yeah.....I like this version also.
Does this have anything to do with the profession you mentioned you were in? Stripper? Very pretty song . . . you old softy!
I like it like that, good sound
Listened to this and So Sad and very much enjoyed both.
Nice vocal....easy and sweet recording.
Everything but sad....very positive vibes on this one.
It must be "Meant To Be". Your new song sounds like it fits together perfectly. Nothing better than a spontaneous success.
Let's Celebrate! Congratulations Roger!
Congratulations, Roger. Yup me too this december...
Oh yeah. Nice one. Love how this one thumps along, excellent groove.
Love the message! Smaller living quarters, higher taxes, no jobs. Well done. Having a bit of the flu keeps it real. I had just finished a bout with that myself. Get your flu shots!
Lots of tenacity here. Your lungs may be coughed up but the family jewels are still clanging together. Nice delivery !
Nice one Roger I might even qualify as one of the old folks :)

Hello, Roger. I know T.O.F.A.H.
Good for the Soul . . . Just like you said.

I liked the early version, but that's just me.
Well I found a little Middle 8... I hope !! Sure you guys will tell me if it's Rubbish !!! I think it's more of a 'rounded' song now. Fingers crossed !!!!!
Does the same for me - makes me feel like the sun is actually shining! Nice one.
