Love this - I'm sat at the back of an empty concert hall, wondering why the bottle is empty and why my head is spinning, and which way the night bus is... but it's ok cos there's a bloke on the stage playing the noises in my head.
Johnny pushed and shoved and heaved; it was no small accomplishment to have finally manoeuvered 'Joanna' to the edge of the sink-hole (known by local indigenous people as "Cyclops" and rumoured to be several hundred metres deep) - it was, indeed, a grand effort.
"Goodbye, Baby" Johnny whispered as one last push sent Joanna a-tumbling. And as she tumbled and bounced off the sides of old Cyclops, Johnny heard not a single tone - not an alone-tone, but several tones; several tones that slowly developed into a melody. Joanna, it seemed, would have the last laugh; 'don't forget me' she appeared to cry as the darkness enveloped her; as she dropped like a stone...
Hi Johnny,
I've been taken by this song. I hope you don't mind, I wrote some lyrics to go with it.
Adeline you’re the reason why
I greet the sun in the morning sky
You’re the reason that I’d walk a mile
Just to see your perfect smile
It’s just a feeling that I get from you
It’s everything that we’ve been through
I’m the most happy when I’m here with you
I only hope that you can feel it too
We’ll watch the stars together you and I
And when you say you love me I’ll reply
I can’t imagine what my life would be
If you weren’t here with me
Reaching out I hope you take my hand
We’ll make each day together something grand
Because I want to spend my life with you
Until our days are through
Adeline you’re the reason why
I greet the sun in the morning sky
Pop-rock song. Recorded 2009.
I wrote this several years earlier and rehearsed it with the last band I was in.
The recording was my first "serious" project on my Boss MBR, I was stunned that you could do something like this on a little silver…
This was also recorded over 10 yrs. Ago. I dig the middle eastern flavor chords and tones. It was my acoustic straight into the multitrack via a Dean Markley pickup.
So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…
Once upon a life
By OsCKilO
Once
Upon a life
Do we find
A happy ending
More
Are the times
That we try
To race from the line
Slow down Laddy
Wont you go a little bit Slow
So Daddy can
catch up
Hey there Laddy
I could run fast in my day
And…
Had a bad day when I wrote this.
There is a rule I stick by though.
"Divert and sublimate your anger and potentially virulent emotions to creative energy"
So I did..
Picked up the Kay G101 and pressed record on the iPhone voice memo…
This is a beautiful song from Joni Mitchell. My friend had his 50th birthday and this was my gift, I played it live at his party and recorded it later (4-2-2011)in my livingroom.
It's one take, can't mis that if you listen to it all the way…
This song is about a friend of ours back in 2009. A lot of people called it very strange because she lost her 2 children, Husband, Mother and Father all in one week and they died of natural causes. One night she couldn't take it anymore she was…
I heard a story in the title so here it is with the excellent guitar by Jim Movement with contact ....hope you enjoy......

Hush little child go back to sleep
Daddy will be back real soon
Hush little child go…
A new original from me. Another one-voice, one-guitar, "live" performance in my broom-cupboard. This time it's the good ole tin guitar.
I wrote this one in 2002 during the "dark years" lol. I've ummed and aahed over the years on whether to…
There's not a drop of RICH MAN'S BLOOD
in the puddles of this war.
But the blood that's spilled's become a flood
of the hungry and the poor.
There is not a trace of RICH MAN'S BLOOD
in the bags that hang beside
the beds of legless soldiers…
I can't quite believe that I'm posting this, or that I've even recorded it. But I've played it like this sat on the sofa in the living room for many years, and I needed something to check out how to record a live "one vocal and one guitar" song…
I was listening to Jims beautiful instrumental and it struck a chord ...so here it is Thanks Jim.....
Shadow of a man (Lyrics)
As i look in the water i see a reflection of what i was
i see the strong man who could have done what ever he wants…

tinkle them keys.... sounds great!
Have always loved this tune - great version!
Good Stuff! A twist on a classic!
Lovely stuff there!
..agree with Greg - also made me think of a possible James Bond theme song..
I suppose you meant 'Fifth'. A cross between Beethoven's celebrated disco period and "Knightrider".
Pretty
