i really love your style and passion - they arrest the heart

I like your way of representing reality, our dreams, and unreality which is necessarily light and dramatic and light at the same time.

It is always a great pleasure to come and listen to you .... Even if the time passes you still have this musical flame which animates you.

Awesome.  Love the harmonies.  Really enjoy the movement of the music underneath   - Keeps the song moving and lets your vocal melodies soar.  Really enjoyed

good piano melody... nice voice… What a beautiful piece of music!!😊✨

North At Defining Moments

This is a newbie, I'm playing my epiphone Dove on this one, but a lot of the guitar parts originally started out on my Yamaha classical. I'm writing a lot of music on the classical at the min, but lyrics generally come when I change to a steel string, mostly the Dove these days. 

take it easy folks, thanks for stopping by!

Lyrics

When I let you stay the night
boy I don't appreciate the morning call
gonna turn your foghorn right down
just so as I don't have to hear it anymore

keep playing your indie pop
like it is 1994
or take a leaf right outta my book
and nail it onto your door

I don't understand why your tiny cloth ears
they don't listen
yeah you'd rather tune in to some
pastiche cheap country honk musician

keep playing your indie pop
like it is 1994
or take a leaf right outa' my book
and nail it onto your door

I don't understand why for me 
your crying eyes do not see
and I can't quite comprehend
why it is that you picked her over me

keep playing your indie pop
like it is 1994
or take a leaf right outa' my book
and nail it onto your door

it's getting harder now
than it ever was before
that little voice inside of your head
is screaming out
and he'll shout 

forevermore
forevermore
forevermore 
forevermore
forevermore........ and maybe some more


thanks for listening, and inspiring, always greatly appreciated. 

recorded at home on my Tascam 8 track.

Gilded World

The traditional “Wayfaring Stranger” has been at the foundation of North American music for at least two centuries, its origin is unknown.

Some historians have traced its genesis to the 1780s, others, the early 1800s. Depending on who you’re talking to the song may be a reworked Black spiritual, a lifted native hymn, or even a creation of nomadic Portuguese settlers from the southern Appalachian region.

According to the book The Makers of the Sacred Harp, by David Warren Steel and Richard H. Hulan, the lyrics were published in 1858 in Joseph Bever's Christian Songster, which was a collection of popular hymns and spiritual songs of the time. This may or may not have been the first time the song appeared in English print, and the songwriter is unknown. Steel and Hulan suggest the song was derived from an 1816 German-language hymn, "Ich bin ja nur ein Gast auf Erden" by Isaac Niswander.

During and for several years after the American Civil War, the lyrics were known as the Libby Prison Hymn. This was because the words had been inscribed by a dying Union soldier incarcerated in Libby Prison, a warehouse converted to a notorious Confederate prison in Richmond, Virginia known for its adverse conditions and high death rate. It had been believed that the dying soldier had authored the song to comfort a disabled soldier, but this was not the case since it had been published several years before the Civil War in 1858, before Libby Prison was put into service (1862).

Members of the Western Writers of America chose it as one of the Top 100 Western songs of all time.

[Intro]
Am  Dm  E  Am

[Verse]
Am
I'm just a poor

Wayfaring stranger
             Dm
Travelling through
             Am
This world below

There is no sickness

No toil, nor danger
                Dm
In that bright land
E           Am
 To which I go


[Chorus]
            F
I'm going there
           C
To see my father
            F
And all my loved ones
            E  E7 E
Who've gone on
          Am
I'm just going over Jordan
         Dm  E       Am
I'm just going over home


[Instrumental]
Am  Dm  E  Am      Am  Dm  E  Am


[Verse]
Am
I know dark clouds

Will gather round me
          Dm
I know my way
             Am
Is hard and steep

But beauteous fields

Arise before me
              Dm
Where God's redeemed
E             Am
Their vigils keep


[Chorus]
            F
I'm going there
           C
To see my mother
                F
She said she'd meet me
        E  E7 E
When I come
          Am
I'm just going over Jordan
         Dm  E       Am
I'm just going over home
          Am
I'm just going over Jordan
         Dm  E       Am
I'm just going over home...

There I was, diligently practicing my palm muted walking basslines when The Boys dropped by.

The practice session never stood a chance.

Here's a little homage to simpler times.
____________________________________________________________________

Neeps ‘n’ Tatties

Don’t need no haute cuisine, come dinner time.
A simple guy like me got simple tastes.
Don’t need no six course menu, sommelier’s fancy wine.
I’m happy drinking beer by the case.
The honest things in life are the ones that always shine,
So get your pan a-boilin’ babe, your neeps ‘n’ tatties do me fine.

Don’t need no fashionista plastic tik tok model girl
I love my honey baby, she always aims to please
Drivin’ me half crazy as she gives a little twirl
She’s muckin’ out the hogs in her muddy dungarees
Keep yer high fallutin’ “A” list, I’ll keep that sweet gal of mine.
Get your pan a-boilin’ babe, your neeps ‘n’ tatties do me fine.

……

Billionaires of tinsel sniffing venison carpaccio
Braised black cherry duck, meets Pol Roger
Praise the Lord I’m still connected to where I wanna go
Me and my sweet baby on our way, we’re headin’ there.
In our home of rustic truth we find pure living, love divine,
So get your pan a-boilin’ babe, your neeps ‘n’ tatties do me fine.

Neeps ‘n’ Tatties
