Ditto Phill !

My wife knows of my wild youthful days - but no details

Great advice Dad!!
Exactly what I do as well.
Phill once that even a half done song is success bc you can always go back to it even years later- and he’s knows his stuff!     

Ed    This is nothing short of fantastic !   Luckily the line about your "sister not gettin' it" made me laugh, otherwise I had tears in my eyes. I hope she hd a good sense of humor! )The lyrics paint such a vivid picture that if I close my eyes I can easily envision every scene. This has the quality that could easily be on the radio. Your guitar work and voice are spectacular.     I really enjoyed this one !  Congrats on a super cool song and a great performance.   

If the adult beverages really have anything to do with the quality of singing and playing, well then I need to drink about  case of beer and a fifth of whiskey to sound good !!

I got one - it came today !! 

I hope it can help me play better !

I think the songmaybe .....
If You're Going Through Hell (Before the Devil Even Knows)
Rodney Atkins
Well you know those times
When you feel like there's a sign there on your back
Says I don't mind if ya kick me
Seems like everybody has
Things go from bad to worse
You'd think they can't get worse than that
And then they do
You step off the straight and narrow
And you don't know where you are
Use the needle of your compass
To sew up your broken heart
Ask directions from a genie
In a bottle of Jim Beam
And she lies to you
That's when you learn the truth
If you're going through Hell
Keep on going, don't slow down
If you're scared, don't show it
You might get out
Before the devil even knows you're there

Sweet Song for Maree !! Nice playing and singing Peatle !!  I did not know you played keyboard!
or is it KiwiBoard down there ?

Jim     

Thank you all !

I made some changes in the lyrics and totally changed the chords

I like it so much better now !!
Jim     

I would guess it is a black widow spider.

Very mysterious song - made by simple lyrics.

Very clever Phill !  but is it more clever than your granddaughter - i think not - she is asking all the right questions !!

Looking forward to the recording

Give my best to Ann

Jim     

Russell - that sounds great ! It appears that you are really into it and very satisfied.
I think you have already gotten your money's worth just in that video.  Awesome!

Can you record with that system ? ( as in add lyrics - singing as you play ?

Jim     

Nice one Mojo - ditto to all of the above !
Do you still have that painting. If not, it would quite a project to hunt it down.

You always come through with songs that have such imagery, and also always attach inceredible emotion or passion.  Very heartfelt.

Same here Peatle - a new phrase for me as well
