This one is a bit different. It is a synthesizer instrumental, and the title is no coincidence. The experiment was to write a complete song based on just one single chord. :)

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…

Just a little piano ballad - another old composition. The strings have not been mixed/edited too well, sorry for that. I'll fix it some day.
It was bedtime and I suddenly felt like playing something on my keyboard. That's how this song came…

Y r U so hard on yourself? You have very good technique and feel. That's what she said, right? lol Seriously, you have talent. I think the modesty is intentional. You know you are good. ;) Sorry I have been posting so many comments everyone.. I am getting over the flu. Can't sleep! aaahhh! lol Last comment, I promise.

The title track. At one point I had visions of everyone singing at the end of the album (and thank you to those of you that did), but I just couldn't get it to sound right (I don't really know what I'm doing after all). So instead of voices…
You could sing the phone book, and I'd probably be amazed.
I hear elements of Garth Brooks, Don McLean, and - of course - a lot of original Keith Landry in this song. Great work, as usual!

My cyber friend Tony Jones , added some keys , percussion and lead , transforming my song into something i couldn't have dreamed of
To the Welsh Wizard , many thanks
The trees turned blue
And the sky outside is yellow
I hear you sigh
While you dream of purple cellos
I don’t in dream in colors baby
nor in black and white
and I can’t tell what’s up or down
or wrong and right
You turned blonde
When I thought…
There was this biker bar called The 2500 Club. Just west of Sylvania on Belknap. On a sign outside it says, "The best little biker bar in Texas." Guthrie and Rick and I played there long enough to get to feeling pretty much like family.
EVERYBODY…
It was about sunrise when I met this guy on the streets of the French Quarter and bought him coffee. I don't know if he's still around -- that was some 20 years ago -- but a two-hour conversation affected my life more than I would have ever known…
About a place in the world that is very special.
But It would be just another bit of rock if it wasn't for the people I shared it with....
This one is called “Stoneâ€...

Frank has turned up at Reg's cellar with Louis and the Duke with a tune that Frank is claiming to be about his latest love affair, so naturally Reg switched on his tape recorder........
The Regs go jazz ... I'm really not much of a jazz fan, but your music is different in a very positive way. So it's no wonder that I do like this song! :)

THE CHILD WITH THE BEAUTIFUL NAME
What remains of an eagle that's fallen
The roots of an oak tree now claim
To draw sap for the shade for the cattle
O're the child with the beautiful name
The law…
I first heard this song yesterday when I was listening to you reading "I bury my dead", and I immediately loved it. I'm sure I would have loved it without hearing the story too, but it sure adds a lot of meaning and depths to it.
Great work, James!
You are the master of minimalism! Great work.
Just one note: The music ends somewhere around 2'50, but the length of the mp3 is 4'48. Wrong locator settings during the audio export?

Oh my, stunning vox! Shades of KD Lang here! Everything fits perfectly. Great song!
What a delicious vocal. My hat off to you maam!
Wow! This is beautiful!
Beautiful, sweet, relaxing, music! What more can you ask for. And all your recordings are superb!
Well, it is still a lovely song and deserves to be heard.
Ha ha, really clever. Successful experiment! I'm just going over to open tuning to make my life easier.
awesome singer there...great lyrics...great track!
beautiful...moving piece...the bass instrument is phenominal...the entire spectrum represented...be proud
....didn't understand a word but the vocal flowed beautifully...the voice just washed over me......the acoustic guitar ....a thing of beauty.......
A mysterious beginning ....war of the worlds feel.....Enjoyed the ride
I dig the high pitched synth..
Excellent!!
Looking forward to more experiments! Parts of this remind me of the old "Dr Who" theme. Good fun!
Really nice playing. A very gentle, soothing piece.
Your talent is showing :)
Now that's a sweet melody. Artistic and effortless. A fine performance.
This is very moving, Steffen. Always good to hear Mimmo.

Steffen, your playing is wonderful, nothing the matter with it and yes the tune is very pretty.
Ahh, lovely music, vocal perfect for it. Perfect cuddling up track.

This is a true gem. Fantastic music! Regards, Steffen
This is what I call root folk: original, rough, authentic. And a great performance. Nice job, Mike! Thanks for sharing. Regards, Steffen

I don't know the original song, but your version is perfect for me. Regards, Steffen
This turned out nicely. Great mix, Diego!
Very nice and relaxing, Rob! Good work, and a great way to start the day.
As pretty as I expected it to be. Your calm, relaxing songs are just perfect after a long day at work. Regards, Steffen
I'm pretty sure this could have become a hit back in the 70s. Great song, James!
Reminds me of an acoustic Nils Lofgren album. Very nice, powerful playing and singing. Your voice is perfect for this music. Regards, Steffen
Very pretty - I love the light mixture of folk and new age. Regards, Steffen

Wonderful! The lo-fi mix adds a very nice authentic touch to it, and the vocal performance is awesome.
You have a pretty voice. Very nice.
Everything has been said already. Great job! Regards, Steffen
Very nice! I think the tempo is just right, and the song is very catchy. Thanks for sharing! Regards, Steffen

Hey, that's an unexpected style from you. Nice old-school (60s) feel.
