I used to drive a slant 6. Dodge Coronet 440 made in 1967. Slow and heavy and 12 miles to the gallon. Good thing I was in high school at the time. I was just glad to have wheels.
Nice blues here. Love the voice box/bag guitar work and the harmonica.

My old buddy and collaboration partner Phil Close joined me on what is at or near the last song for my last album. I wrote the song and sang--Phil did everything else you hear. Dance in the New Year.
Dance, Little Sister.
Dance till you…
Pastichio Rocker aka PDOA wrote and performed/programmed this electronica piece and asked me to write and sing a lyric for it. Despite (or maybe because of ) my accent, we considered it a success. It got some college-radio airplay.
I've made…
Written and performed by Tangmo and Jay Jackson. If my voice sounds a little sickly, it's because it was. I went into the hospital with life-threatening heart and respiratory problems days after laying vocals for this song. It remains a 'spiritual…
"hang on to your hopes my friend",,, what a great line, in such a powerfully personal tune,, from where did such musical genius rise,, ive listened to this several times now,, your take is highly artistic,, a very beautiful take on a beautiful song well well done Richard

More on the "Freak" end of the Orphans and Freaks designation. Most of the time I'm making music for myself, and this one just makes me happy, no matter how hard I try to resist.

One of the joys of listening to music on the internet is encountering music that sets off chimes of inspiration in our own minds. This holds especially true when the one doing the inspiring is a friend. Bruce Lesisko uploaded a song called Flyfinger…
Tang paid for the rights to use this on a CD, but never did. If the publishing rights holder wants it back, he'll accept refund.
Tangmo himself is gone and there ain't no sunshine in more ways than one. Uploading for him. Enjoy.
I sat watching Tom Jones on BBC4 this evening and thought i'd try and write him a song now i just have to find his management meet up with Tom sign a contract and get him to sing it then i should make a few bob...well it is Christmas you've gotta…
first my apologies to J. Pachabell
second, my very best wishes to all my AT friends who make sharing music here so wonderful,, hope your holiday season is most wonderful and filled with love, peace to us all r
I've posted this "Naked" version because Mrs Russe wanted me to... :-)
It wasn't "finished" in my mind - there was a certain amount of "orchestration" to come.
But I ended up liking the starkness of this version.
The original intention…
Lovely melody (and you carry it very well). Though I can 'hear' some more instrumentation and harmonies, this 'naked' version is not so shamed to be that way.
I threw this one together tonite/early am...yawnnnnn. Not an exact replica but always a tribute to Jimi's music. I was originally turned on to do this by some new free vst effects I found on the net. A cool fuzz face vst that is very realistic…
Wonderful cover of this tender love long. :) We always shoot the ones we love. Great mix, instrumentation and vocals. That 3:40'ish bit was very inventive.
Maybe I missed a career scoring for no budget spaghetti westerns, because this is what this reminds me of. Done live a couple weeks ago with the Taylor and a floor full of toys and loopers.
This is Blues lesson 2.2 but again couldn't resist singing a song over it .....as well as practice my blues lead..might get a rollicking for using the effect but i found it and liked it so if i do i deserve it....it's meant to be clean....hope…
Reg, you understand you still get paid even if you don't play so many notes. Blues lesson 2.3 ... fill around the singer...take the leads over. How many licks does it take to reach the center of a tootsie pop? More than it takes to play the blues. Your voice is incredible here. Very much enjoyed.
Still waiting for the bump to hatch.....so i thought there all a sleep i’ll nip down the cellar........well heres a depressing un-trusting one....i always seem to write a real sad song when i’m really happy...i wonder why that is???...anyway i…
Oh lawd, you got your 16 pounds worth out of this. Sort of a electrono-punk-psychedelic-blues in 3/4. Brilliant. Thanks for hoping I enjoyed. I do. Congrats on the newbie.
I found a cassette tape the other day from 1991 which turned out to be live to 2 track demos that Scartaglen did in the studio in preparation for our 3rd and (as it turned out) final album. This tune didn't make the cut for the record but I always…
I'll thank and type Paul MacDonald one more time. Maybe he'll google his name and have a bit better chance of landing here for his R&C's. I like this a lot, Kirk.
Started out be an innocent little jazzy study in quartal harmony, but the DL4 was still in my signal path and things went downhill from there! Another done with my beloved '58 Stratotone
This is a live cut from an NPR radio broadcast back in 1988 while my Irish Trad group Scartaglen was on one of its first east coast tours. Found recently on a cassette tape. Musically this was one of my favorite periods in the history of the band…
Hey, I even clapped at the end. Just couldn't help myself. Wonderful suite. The minor keyed opening had me smiling with a tear in my eye. Hugely enjoyed this. Glad you scrounged it up. Sounds good and feels good.
This song is called "Atrum Sodalitas" which means "Dark Companionship" in Latin. This song will depict two people from different backgrounds that share the same, yet dark, goal. You will hear their story.
The B side to Dad's father's day present. This is an instrumental celebration of his 45 years in the printing industry, and an acknowledgement that while other kids got bedtime stories, I got the history of lithography..
Well as you've come to know Reg wears his heart on his sleeve, the new woman who was going to be the one has gone. He's decided to go for a walk in the park to clear his head , he's sad oh! he is sad, sad, sad, .............
This one, i heard…
Written by Holdempok. This song features:
Holdempok - Rhythm guitar and vocals
Myself - lead guitar
Chad 'The Rock' - Bass
Tod - Drums
We had this song hanging around a while without drums...so I uploaded to SongCrafters a while back, and asked…
coffee shop song...
kenya time
hear the cracklin' paper
as you test the basil mayo
when you pull apart the cheese
and tip your brown beer bottle
smell the grinding coffee beans
set by tatooed arms to motion
near the burlap-bag topped…
the girl with her piano
this land she's in
clothed in unfamiliarity
these colors blend, fade
and run out of hue
all light has changed
and turned into greyscale
tinted with every shade of blue
this room she's in
suddenly fills with…

Much enjoyed. I could just see the sweat and pelvic thrusting. Push that emotion.
Very very nice. An expressivle piece expressively played. Thanks for this.
Lovely melody (and you carry it very well). Though I can 'hear' some more instrumentation and harmonies, this 'naked' version is not so shamed to be that way.

Excellent. Dreamy space cowboy star dusty trail.

Spacey and spacious. You worked that delay to near exhaustion. Good for you. Much Enjoyed.

don't have the gear to comment on recording and sound, but that was a very nice set of lines working very well together.
a very interesting and effective progression up front that morphed nicely into melodic modern classical through the movements.
Don't know the original, but you did a good job.
Really nice
lotta fun
I hope it is well recieved, and not like being given a pair of red socks. Somehow I believe it will be.
Thanks a lot. Now you got me sad. Delicious wierdness here.
big sound. Really opens up and delivers power.
very painterly lyric delivered with easy grace. Very nice.
even the string noise is deliciously beautiful. Just great.
