This Is The Same Recording As 
The Numero 'Sweethearts Deluxe' Version
But Slowed To The "Proper" Speed 
And With A Stereo Mix!
----
My Former Manager & Co-Producer Of The Track
Had Sped-Up The Mix For The Tax Scam 'Sweethearts' Album In 1977
-----
Musically, This Owes A Lot To Queen 
Kind Of A Straight-Forward Pop Ballad 
That Becomes Dramatic In The Bridge Section
I Believe Bob Claster Plays Piano &
I Think I Play Bass - If I Didn't, It Might Be Bob
But I Definitely Play An Acoustic Rhythm Guitar 
& An Electric Guitar In The Bridge
And The Vocals And...
Did Some Cymbal Smashing Too
Bob May Have Bashed Some Cymbals Too

MEMORY LANE

No, Not Tonight I Got To Stay Inside
Too Many Things That Are On My Mind
Over & Over I Will Twist On Her Name
Doing The Stroll On Memory Lane
Wo Ooh-Wo, Ooh-Wo Ooh-Whoa-Oh-Oh

And All The Lights In The City 
Would Only Take Their Toll
I Couldn’t Drink Away 
My Heart & Soul

So Run Boy Run - With The Wind In Your Hair
Good Times Are Waiting - No Time To Spare
Tell Her If You See Her That I Can Explain
I’m Doing Time On Memory Lane
Wo Ooh-Wo, Ooh-Wo Ooh-Wo 

And All The Lights In The City 
Would Only Take Their Toll
I Couldn’t Drink Away 
My Heart & Soul

MEMORY LANE

A 2016 Cover Of Donovan's 'Catch The Wind'
It's Always Been Hard For Me To Sing This 
Without His Scottish Accent
----
This Is For RoseMary - Happy Birthday! 8/10/25
 In-Law & Donovan Fan

Donovan Anecdote: 
In The 80s - I Played In A Weekend Pick-Up Softball Game 
At Fairfax High In Hollywood
With Donovan's Son... Dono  
And Yes, It Was Weird Playing Ball 
With The Son Of A Hero
But Dude Was 8 Years Younger Than I 
And Had A Quick Bat
I Pitched A Lot - I Didn't Like Guys With Adjustable Swings
You Could Fool Them & They Could Still Recover
Dono Could Hit My Pitching 
----
Below Are The Proper Words...

CATCH THE WIND

In The Chilly Hours & Minutes
Of Uncertainty, I Want To Be
In The Warm Hold Of Your Loving Mind
To Feel You All Around Me
And To Take Your Hand, 
Along The Sand
Ah, But I May As Well Try & Catch The Wind

When sundown pales the sky
I want to hide a while, behind your smile
And everywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find
For me to love you now
Would be the sweetest thing
That would make me sing
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind
When rain has hung the leaves with tears
I want you near, to kill my fears
To help me to leave all my blues behind
For standin' in your heart
Is where I want to be, and I long to be
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind

Donovan Leitch

CATCH THE WIND

My latest version of one of George's more obscure but iconic Indian mysticism influenced songs. Hare Krishna!

The Inner Light (Version 2025)

Wow! Three Plays! 
Kinda Puts ALL My #SoundCloud Numbers In Question
----

It's Unclear Why This Is Such A "Difficult" Topic
There Were Only Two Possible Outcomes
Either Epstein Killed Himself
Or Someone Else Killed Him 
And A Lot Of Very Rich People
Wanted Him Dead
Now, I'm 75 - When I Was Growing-Up
I Watched The Soviets Do Really Obvious Stuff
That They Would Really Obviously Lie About...
It Was Often Humorous
Putin Has Kept Up His Nation's Tradition With His
'Come See The View From The Window, Igor' Campaign...
So, Claiming Epstien Took His Own Life
When A Cadre Of The World's Richest People Wanted Him Dead
Is A Walk On The Soviet Side... So I Went With A 50's Thing

SUICIDE WATCH

Suicide Watch 
You’ll Get The Hang Of It On 
Suicide Watch 
Every Shift's The Swing Shift On
Suicide Watch 
Things Are Looking Up On
Suicide Watch
Oh
You’d Rather They Be In Their Bed
Than Swinging Gently Overhead 
On
Suicide Watch  
Things Are Looking Up On
Suicide Watch 
Getting Sleepy On 
Suicide Watch  
You Keep Me Hanging On
Suicide Watch

SUICIDE WATCH

I Recorded This In 2014 - 50 Years After I Wrote It 
It Was One Of My First Songs & I Was
Hoping To Impress The Young Lady Pictured
The Title Was From A 1959 Movie
---
The Girl Pictured & I 
Met-Up Again 45-Years Later 
At A High-School Reunion & Thanked Her 
For Helping Me Become A Songwriter
Later, We Sang 'If I Fell' Together... 
It All Worked Out

I’LL CRY TOMORROW

Girl, Can't Be With You 
Can’t See You No More
Girl, It’s The Last Time 
That’s For Sure
Cos I’ll Cry Tomorrow
That’s What I’ll Do
I’ll Cry Tomorrow Just
Thinking About You

I Don’t Expect You
To Wait
Just Show Me You Love Me 
Before It’s Too Late
And I’ll Cry Tomorrow
Yes, You Know I Will
I’ll Cry Tomorrow But
Tonight I’ll Have My Fill

Today, I’ll Remember 
For Years
I Won’t Remember 
Tomorrow’s Tears
Cos I’ll Cry Tomorrow
Yes, You Know I Will
I’ll Cry Tomorrow But
Tonight I’ll Have My Fill

I'LL CRY TOMORROW

Back In 1989 My Friend
Jim Dean & I Would Get Together & Make-Up Songs
For Our Own Amusement 
On His Korg Keyboard Computer 
We Were Both McCartney Freaks 
The New Era Of Digitized Recording
Was Making Very Accessible To Record At Home
We Had A Plan - "Oh Darlin"  
That Was The Plan
That A Coherrent Song Emerges.. Is Largely Luck
But... Jim Happens To Be A Great Improvisor
And What We 'Pull-Off' In The Bridge Section - Twice
Is Just Me Holding my Own With A Talented Improvisor
The Song Has Some Cool Chord Changes... 
And, Oh Yeah - Songwriter Tip #179
Make Sure You Can Sing The WHOLE Song
BEFORE You Record The Whole Song

ONE MORE TOMORROW           

YOU USED TO WANT ME
NOW YOU DON'T CARE ANYMORE
YOU USED TO HAUNT ME
NOW YOU’RE NOT YOU'RE NOT THERE ANYMORE

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THAT LOVE IN YOUR EYE?
YOU'RE GONNA MAKE ME BREAK DOWN AND CRY
DON'T SAY YOU'RE LEAVING - DON'T SAY WE'RE THROUGH
GIVE ME ONE MORE TOMORROW  WITH YOU

YES, I STILL LOVE YOU
AND YOU KNOW THAT I HAVE FOR A WHILE
I'LL ALWAYS NEED YOU
I'LL NEED YOUR SWEET LITTLE SMILE

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THAT LOVE IN YOUR EYE?
YOU'RE GONNA MAKE ME BREAK DOWN AND CRY
DON'T SAY YOU'RE LEAVING - DON'T SAY WE'RE THROUGH
GIVE ME ONE MORE TOMORROW  WITH YOU
GIVE ME ONE MORE TOMORROW  WITH YOU

ONE MORE TOMORROW

A Duet With Tracy Newman  From 2010  
We Made A Little YouTube In Her Home Office
This Is The Audio

I Wrote The Song Around '02
From A Musical Suggestion From My Then L.A. Neighbor, 
Larrow Farrow  - Thanks, Larry!

Generally My Wife Sings This With Me 
https://soundcloud.com/dragbunt/jersey-sky-7
Thank's Christie!
---
But This Version With Tracy 
Has Both Charm & Tempo To It
And I Get To Sing The 'Melody'
And There's Yet Another 'Dreadful' Version 
From My 2013 'Dreadful Sorrow' CD
Catch Them All!
----
I Love This Song
It's A Beautiful Accident...
----
My Neighbor Says; 
'My Friend Has A TV Pilot 
Set In New Jersey
Wanna Write A Song Together
To My Chorale Arranger/Director/Composer Neighbor 
I Say 'Sure' 
He Proceeds To Sit At His Piano & Play & Sing 
A Jazzy Phrasing Of 'Hey, Cover Me Tenderly' 
Stops - Turns & Says 'like that'
So - From Four Words & 8 Notes
And A Fortunate Grafting Of Memories & Notes
Came This Little Gift 

JERSEY SKY

Hey Cover Me Tenderly
And Take Me Home
To Listen To Brenda Lee
Naked

Don’t You Ever Wanna Try 
New Things?
Things You Think You’re Never Gonna 
Do Things
Windows Open Up Inside
When You Try The Things
You’ve Never Tried

Hey Cover Me Tenderly
And Take Me Home
Over The Tappan Zee
Naked

It’s Always Better When You Try 
New Things
Things You Think You’re Never Gonna 
Do Things
Say The Words You’ll Never Say
Whisper Them & Walk Away

Hey, Sing Me A Lullaby
And We Can Lay
Under The Jersey Sky
Naked

There's No-Fi - Like Lo-Fi
Some 'Sound' Advice 
I've Been Writing & Recording Songs 
Since I Was 14 In 1964
When I Began 
I Couldn't Read Or Write Music
So In Order To Remember It 
I Had To Record It... 
In The 60's, It Was On A Reel-To-Reel 
By The Late '70s, I Realized 
I Had To Be My Own Favorite Artist  
And Keep Track Of The Songs I'd Written 
To Keep Me Company In My Old Age
So - This Is A Musical Diary Of My Life 
For The Last 60 Years
By Clicking "Playlists" 
You Can Follow A Progression
By The Decades
