While I was going through my old stuff I found this forgotten tune. I think it was the first or second collab I've ever done with Billy Playle. We met at a long gone collaboration site called OMF (OpenMusicFactory, run by Alessandro da Lisca…

Floppy old mix. Another candidate for remixing or (at least) re-mastering. I'll probably do the latter soon.
This is a synthesizer instrumental…

A little bit of pop with a strong 80s touch (I hope).

Nice lead guitar tone. Rockin' tune ... funky clean rhythm guitar. Good vox ... bed is tight and drives it well ... cool horns and keys in the chorus ... I like this.

Reg was at the weekly AA meeting at the old school and the group asked Reg if there was anything he would like to share....so Reg decided to share this ........
I've been told that drowning is a dreamy way to go.
THE ANGELS CRIED "NO!"
He lived high on the mountain top
He lived there with his love
He tumbled to the valley deep
When she gave him a shove
And when he hit the valley deep
It must…
Wow, is that a banjo? Great playing!
The music is actually cheerful, but the lyrics deal with a serious topic - and somehow it fits together and sounds just right.

This never turned out like I wanted it to be because I could not find a real drummer and bassist for it. But at least Alina was kind enough to play the lead guitar…
Thanks everybody for your comments on this and other songs of mine! It's good to know that there are a couple of folks out there who like some of my songs. :)
Feel free to criticize though! We all cannot get better without honest, constructive criticism.

On this song you sound even more like Chapin. Great song btw - lead vocals are too loud, but awesome job nonetheless. The backing vocals are brilliant. The whole song is brilliant!

People had been requesting this song for years. I decided to write it.
It's the most requested song in Tarrant county
It's a song that I had never heard before
But I always try to sing the songs folks ask for

Nice one, James! I wish I was able to just grab a guitar and hum along. But I'm still trying to learn the basics on guitar (that Dm chord kills me - my hands are too big), and I cannot sing a single note.

This started out as an acoustic piece that turned out kinda bluesy.
Inspired by current events.

Comments on stoman's stuff
Oh yeah, very well put together. Love that bass groove holding it down.
I'm definitely hearing 80s :)
Well put together. Good musicianship with some hints from the 80's.
Maybe it's just 'cause it was mentioned, but I'm hearing Steely Dan too, especially if you imagine more elaborate harmonies over parts. Good song!
Actually, it's more like Toy Matinee. Kevin Gilbert was one of my favorites.
Sounds like Las Angeles to me. Steely Dan. Clean.
Cool song. Really like the bass groove.
Very nice. Fine vocal.
Nice one.
Real smooth. Nice listening!
Great production! Grinning through the whole thing.
Is it about a "BANKER", lol. 10 times a night, bloody hell, he needs to stop taking the little blue pills. Loved this.
nice 'James Bond' music feel. very well done
Nice groove!
Hell yeah....right from go! Nice solid track guys. Almost like a bluesy version of Asia. This is great. Nice boards, vocals and solid rythym section
awesome.
Nice lead guitar tone. Rockin' tune ... funky clean rhythm guitar. Good vox ... bed is tight and drives it well ... cool horns and keys in the chorus ... I like this.
Cool tune. Brings me back to some 70's era rock...similar to BOC. I dig the bridge section and vocal harmonies.
totally midnight ridin with ya right now. props to all the musicians, you guys did a good job!
Nice one :) You've got a cool "70s" rock/pop combo going there.

Oh, look there, an unknown Beatles song! Are you a relative of John Lennon's? ;) Very well done! Regards, Steffen
Wonderful - would be perfect for a sad movie. Great playing. Regards, Steffen
I don't understand a word, but it sounds great! :)
Wow, is that a banjo? Great playing! The music is actually cheerful, but the lyrics deal with a serious topic - and somehow it fits together and sounds just right.
It took a while, but then it started to grab me. The lyric is great, as always. Unfortunately I don't understand every word in the slow part.
Sounds like you could have a great future in the film music genre. :) Regards, Steffen
Beautiful songwriting and a most emotional performance. Another favorite, no doubt.
Your songs sound radio-ready to me. Brit-pop/rock with a very modern sound. Regards, Steffen
Thanks everybody for your comments on this and other songs of mine! It's good to know that there are a couple of folks out there who like some of my songs. :) Feel free to criticize though! We all cannot get better without honest, constructive criticism. Regards, Steffen
You have everything a good songwriter needs: A guitar, a voice, and a bunch of great stories to tell. Regards, Steffen
Solid job, as always, James! I really dig your singing. Regards, Steffen
On this song you sound even more like Chapin. Great song btw - lead vocals are too loud, but awesome job nonetheless. The backing vocals are brilliant. The whole song is brilliant!
You sound a bit like Harry Chapin, did you know that? And just to make that clear: I love Harry Chapin! :) Regards, Steffen
A wonderful song, James, and I love the harmony vocals. Regards, Steffen
This could well be a Jimmy Buffet song. Have I said that before? ;) Regards, Steffen
Hey, nice to meet you here! :) I remember this song - you posted it at Songcrafters some time ago. Great blues voice! Regards, Steffen
Nice one, James! I wish I was able to just grab a guitar and hum along. But I'm still trying to learn the basics on guitar (that Dm chord kills me - my hands are too big), and I cannot sing a single note. Regards, Steffen
I love the piano! :)
Exactly what I like! Awesome vocals. :)
Yes, there is definitely a bit of blues in it. Nice song, Geir! Regards, Steffen
