Nice recording Peatle. I don't think it's so much rock and roll as a blues rhythm, but that's okay, your performance is spot on.
Got to feel sorry for youngsters not being able to strut their stuff for the last few months, hopefully that's all over now? Sounds like a title for a song, I wonder if anyone's thought of that?
More girls than boys....I knew I was in the wrong country growing up!!!! Lol
nice one grah, you don't say if it's original? i was expecting a bit of boy george....only kidding
i got halfway through before i realised it was an anti war song...rock on i'm with you all the way. no time at the moment to listen but i will listen later.
beamer liked that so much he said it twice..lol
i also liked it. does Maree? (i hope i spelt that right?) is it about your lovely wife or just imagination? don't worry i wont tell...
Quite inspirational. I think I know what you're referring to; racism and eliteism have no place in our modern world and it seems the leaders of our countries are empowering it and actively encouraging radical action? How I wish I could go back to the 1950's when life was so much easier.
Great song I'll enjoy the recording.
I too am a grandfather and great grandfather so I agree with Jeff and you about the joy they bring. As I grew up in the countryside I can also go along with your nature sentiments. I won't go any further than that! Sorry.
Your song, the wording and metre are superb as usual and in my imagination I can hear it being sung by a gospel choir. I hope you can get one to do this the justice it deserves.
hey Mojo, enjoyed it, reminds me somewhat of the folk songs in the YMCA back in the sixties, and a good time was had by all.
this may sound strange but i drink only a pint or two a week since the lock down where i used to drink a lot LOT more.
yes i can imagine it with a banjo
O ye of wierd and wonderful chords! You're undecided over the timing? How about giving us a sample of both versions and the community can help you decide?
Now about the words...I believe all songs have a meaning even if it's not meant. I get the feeling that you're saying not "no more love songs please" but "I wish I could find the woman that would inspire me to write my last love song" I may be well wrong?
Don't want to lay like a bump on a log...what a fabulous line! That's saying something in a song full of great lines. If I have one small criticism it might be a tad too fast. But a great performance none the less
Hi Jeff. Thanks for that. It was going to be just the guitar and vocal but I thought I'd experiment with the piano, I think it worked?
I have four kids; one lives in Australia and the other three live within a couple of minutes walk so we see them almost daily....at a safe distance of course. I'll be glad when this is all done... I'm missing my kisses and cuddles, or cwtches as we say in Wales.
Stay safe
Hi Jim, thanks for the good review. Yep, it seems one day you're changing nappies next you're feeding your grandkids!
Look forward to our next colab, I seem to have dried up at the moment, I had to buy a new note pad and the blank pages are freaking me out...lol
They send me an e-card at Christmas and I send back and ask how they are? No reply though. This is worrying.

a melancholic little ditty about our children flying the nest. a short and sweet one this just 1 min 30 secs. i'd appreciate your thoughts.
Nice one Jeff, guess we're all going through the same groundhog Day. Stay safe.
I had the same problem when I up graded from win 7 to 10 . The only cure/work round I could find was to buy a new printer as the old one apparently was not designed for any o/s higher than 8 ! Try updating your driver's?
Oh I just remembered, I got the free win 10 upgrade so almost nothing worked! In the end it crashed and I had to get the disk and reinstall.
Getting something off your chest Brian? Lol. You been watching too much late night TV?
I got the feeling of "hurry, looking constantly over my shoulder and being suspicious of any one I'd never met before". I think you could expand this into something bigger? As I said I got that butterflies in the stomach feeling so you dragged me into your poem. Great work and no mention of you know what?
Nice one Peatle. The old saying "too cool for school" isn't used much anymore, maybe in a couple of months? Bojo (Boris Johnson) says English kids can go back to school in July. The Welsh senedd is far more cautious and said not until September which makes our Welsh and Scottish politicians more in tune with what's going on. They've even stopped English day trippers crossing the boarder!
And we're back in the room....you have a wonderful way of taking everyday conversation and making great literature and songs from it. Iechyd dda. Kia ora. Stay safe
IMHO, it's the best feeling in the world playing with a live band. you did a great job here. is that a Cry Baby? i used to have one but traded it for a mini monitor, worst trade i ever made and i've done some bad ones.
Hi Jim. There is loss of tone when you turn the big guys down so use sustain or a little distortion to get the sound "meaty" there are other terms I could use but this isn't Facebook lol.
On my previous post I meant to write amp and cab!
One of the first gigs I played with a band I used a Marshall 50 watt amp with two cabs. The other guitarist used a Vox A.C. 30 and completely drowned me out, and I was stood right Infront of my rig!!!
welcome to chordie brownhill. i once had a vox 50 watt combo. i also played once through a 100 watt vox cab and speaker, i made a bit of a mess in my pants if you get my meaning?
vox amps used to have around twice the output of the face value , so 15 = 30 watts, 30 = 60 etc. i find small amps are not value for money, if you're playing in a bedroom, yes, but if you want to say jam with some mates in a bigger room your sound will be lost. you can always turn down a big amp but you cant turn up a small amp.
yeah, led by a load of lords and generals that bought their commissions. there was a time when kings and generals had to prove themselves by leading their troops into battle. william the conqueror gave land and privileges to his knights that distinguished themselves at hastings which they handed down to their sons and so on until we come to the chinless wonders that sat miles away from the action sending brave men into suicidal charges. how the dickens did the human race survive so long?
I am not sure of the greeting for Anzac Day though I have seen a lot about their bravery in the face of the enemy and the idiot generals that sent them into withering machine gun fire. Let us hope those days are gone forever.
Peatle. As a follow on, every Thursday evening at 8pm loads of people all over the UK stand at their doorsteps and applaud the invaluable and life threatening work they do. Last night I saw something I haven't seen for many years; after the clapping people, keeping to the two metre rule, stood and chatted with neighbours! This pandemic has brought out the spirit that got us through the blitz and the cold war. Let us hope the plonkers that have their fingers poised over the nuclear buttons aren't stupid enough to push them! HOPE
Hi Peatle.
you began by speaking of your defiance of the covid-19 virus then moved on to how your lands were invaded and your people slaughtered? I sincerely hope that my ancestors were not involved with that invasion?
A very moving and insightful piece of writing as I've come to expect from you. Hope will see us through this bad time.
Be safe my friend.
