thanks randy this one kinda flowed easy for me the Melodie came first and the lyrics I finished earlier today so I did all the tracks without having to redo any (for a change)

Wow Russell, you are just a composing machine lately aren't ya!  Isn't that like one-a-day?  Next thing we'll have to find you an agent!

  Very nice tune, meaningful lyrics and I really liked the Mandolin accompaniment..... Jolly Good!

  Take Care;  Doug

thanks doug yea sometimes you get on a roll and the tunes in your head just need to come out I have one more I will work on tomorrow and all of the songs are from videos I saved from jammin at the lake they kind of sat in my files for a week or so till the creative juices started flowing but its always like that with composing no ideas and then the flood gates open

Thanks Ark I appreciate your comment, the mando is a fun instrument to play and the chords are not all that hard to learn the tunning is the same as a violin but most chords can be made with only two fingers its just that the fretboard is very narrow compared to a guitar and for someone with large hands and fingers it takes a little time to get comfy with but I have small hands and I didn't have any trouble adjusting to it

Thanks Roger yep its another "park bench" inspiration I was sorta in a Neil young mood and this was the result I have two more and I will try to get one up today and as long as the weather cooperates I will find my way down at the lake on my favorite bench pickin and grinnin and videotaping so I wont forget the feel and chord changes and make a few bucks on the side,thats the plan and thanks again for the nice comments

Am]woman what is thy [Em]pleasure?

Mines a good night out with good company, music, and a good glass of wine,or Bacardi with truckloads of ice and lime

Gosh I'm so easily pleased im unreal .

Seriously Russell, it does have a biblical feel to it. Lonesome and seaching song i feel.  I enjoyed listening to it also.

Well done .

Old Doll.

Phil I got over the pain several times its a recurring event and I didn't consciously intend to go biblical the words kinda popped into my head so I wrote them down I was searching for a title and settled on the second line "your eyes do betray you windows to your soul"as a theme for the whole song and we are like minds when it comes to out love of music thankyou

Helena thank you I think what pleases you sounds great to me well if you agree with phil then I guess it is biblical I value both of your opinions and friendship so who can say how the words came to me I do not openly endorse any faith mine is a one to one relationship thats all i can handle and im glad you enjoyed this

Totally_unique13 very kind of you I may need a good press agent some day and I know where to look

Thanks James much appreciated, I suppose you can turn events in your life even bad ones and make a positive thing out of it like monty python "always look on the brite side of life" do do ect.. someday i will find a autoharp and record it i have played one in the past so i'll keep my eyes open at garage sales or second hand stores (I find a lotta good things there) and snag one for a song excuse the pun
