Here is my version of Greg's Cherry Pie...I took a little liberty with it and recorded a whole new song.....I think Greg said that would be ok!!
Tried to put the Sweet Ronnie Cream Cheese Mojo on it....good gawd!!!!
Greg let me have another go at one of his songs and I the wrote the words and music for a bridge

Ooohhh I looooove me some Drop D slip'n'slide Blues! D is for Darkness, and I’ll take Dark Blues over Sky Blues anytime. Ya done good, my man – I hope this isn’t the last time you explore the world of Drop D – most of my songs, especially my Blues, are done in this tuning. It speaks to me. It’d Deep! ;) Rock on!
Been a while since I posted anything...(working on a secret project) anyway been feelin the blues lately so I decided to record this old blues tune...the lead guitar was recorded in one take so please dismiss some clams and relentless wanking…
From the early 70's...an old Crusaders tune with Larry Carlton..I bought this licensed backing track with no guitars....so the guitars are me... drums , Bass and keys are the backing track..
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…
for Gene's contest...great title and inspiration!!

Another outstanding collaboration...Colleen your already great vocals are sounding better and better...this is your best recording yet in my opinion ..the mix between your voice and the music is perfect....cudos to Paul
