This is an ever-changing playlist of my favorite songs and/or artists peppered all over the SCloud at a given moment. 

The list is loosely sequenced in order of favorites, but every single one of these tracks and artists generates within me a tremendous and equal amount of aural joy, keeping me (mostly) sane whether at home or work.   :D

Current faves found thru SCloud that I can't stop replaying...

One of my favorite songs of all time, created AcoustatTronically in my own way with all due respect to the Mighty Canadian Balladeer Songwriter, and Performing Artist, Gordon Lightfoot. Vocals, Guitars, and Production by Riff Beach via RiffWerx Records - 2021.
If You Could Read My Mind - Gordon Lightfoot - circa 1970
If you could read my mind, Love, what a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old time movie 'bout a ghost from a wishing well
In a castle dark or a fortress strong with chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me
And, I will never be set free as long as I'm a ghost that you can't see
If I could read your mind, Love, what a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel, the kind the drugstores sell
When you reach the part where the heartaches come, the hero won't be me
Because heroes often fail
You won't read that book again, because the end is just too hard to take
I walk away like a movie star, who gets burned in a three-way script
Enter number two
A movie queen to play the scene of bringin' all the good things out in me
But, for now, Love, let's be real.....
I never thought I could act this way, and I've got to say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong, but the feeling's gone....
And, I just can't get it back
(Repeat Chorus 'Blended' Verse.....and Out)

Sunny Beaches All Around

If You Could Read My Mind - Version

If You Could Read My Mind - AcoustaTronic Version

the captain, mad captain
he told the men his plans
and then they went out stealing things
so they could rule these lands

they stole four antique cannons from the castle
hijacked a truckload of metal from the factory
they stole a jet engine from the old air force base
the mad captain nodded satisfactorily

they welded the metal into a battering ram
and the big jet engine was for extra speed
cannons armed in every direction
the mad captain had returned to the sea (x2)

they were a terror in the open waters
they’d sink any ship that they saw
and with their jet engine, they were able to avoid apprehension
and stay a step ahead of the law

vengeance in the form of a storm
came rolling across the sea
the mad captain pulled his eyes from the sky
he’d seen more than he wanted to see
"all hands below deck", the captain roared
"tie yourself down so you don’t go overboard"

the mad captain (on speed)

I think of this man as the Frank Sinatra of country music.  What
a voice and such a special gift.  So many wonderful songs and so many were so beautifully orchestrated.  I tried to get a bit of orchestra feel with the limited resources I have.

I Wish I Were Eighteen Again ( Cover  - Ray Price)

Unlike our previous two collabs, Dan does lyrics, vocals and lead guitars on an instrumental by me.
I made a 7/4 track for him, knowing he can sail odd waves, and here you are the fantastic result !!

Verse 1:
A promise was made
And It shouldn’t fade
The words were spoken
Then they was broken

We were in the bright sunshine
I thought she was mine
It’s not something you can pawn
And asa now she is gone

I was here forever beau
It was years ago

Verse 2:
But I thought it still held
Like a solid weld

A promise is a promise
Even for a doubting Thomas
It should carry some weight
It doesn’t have an expiration date

But a last I find
That things can unwind
And we are not together
In this Summer weather

Verse 3:
She made her assurance
But I had no insurance
From the broken promise she made
Yes our romance began to fade

Now I am in the dark
What was there was just a spark
Now I Don’t know
Which way to go

No direction in my life
Yes I’m living in such strife
Wondering if life means anything
My joy has no more spring

I am that sad guy you passed by
Not noticing the tears in his eyes

 PAROLES
Tu restes
 Comme une parole interrompue
 
 A des années lumières
 Comme un cœur en hiver

A des années lumières
 Rien n’efface ton ombre
 Dans l’oubli rien n’est sombre
 Du joli nom d’amante
Ni le thé à la menthe
 Ni les lèvres mi-closes
 Ni le vase ni la rose
Ni la beauté du chant
 Ni le désenchantement

C’est comme si c’était hier
 Hier
 A des années-lumière

A des années-lumière
 Comme un oiseau qui chante
 Le cœur dans la tourmente
 Et moi qui m’impatiente
 Comme si c’était hier
 Hier

A des années-lumière
 D’étoiles la poussière
 Dans les grands yeux gris-verts
 Des enfants de la terre

Et nos mains sur la table
 Jouent au marchand de sable

 Tu restes
 Comme une parole interrompue
Comme les voix qui se sont tues

Dans l’oubli rien ne sombre
 Dans les années-lumière
Rien n’efface ton ombre
 Pour un cœur en hiver
 C’est comme si c’était…
 Hier
_______________________________________________________________
You stay
 Like an interrupted word

 Light years away
 Like an heart in winter

Light years away
 Nothing erases your shadow
 In oblivion nothing is dark
 The pretty name of a lover
Nor mint tea
 Nor half-closed lips
 Neither the vase nor the rose
Nor the beauty of singing
 Nor disenchantment

It's like it was yesterday
 Yesterday
 Light years away

Light years away
 Like a singing bird
 The heart in turmoil
 And I who get impatient
 As if it were yesterday
 Yesterday

Light years away
 From stars to dust
 In the big gray-green eyes
 Children of the Earth

And our hands on the table
 Play Sandman

 You stay
 Like an interrupted word
Like the voices that fell silent

In oblivion nothing sinks
 In the light years
Nothing erases your shadow
 For a heart in winter
 It's like it's...
 Yesterday

The Winnebago Route by Oussama Arichi & Nadia Selvaggi

Ah, the people we meet, and cross paths with, in this life…. So many experiences. How do we respond, especially if life clashes with these chance meetings? And what becomes of it? Once when looking for a place to rent, (25 years ago) I stopped to talk with an old man sitting on a bench. He had so much to say. My partner slowly became furious with me for taking the time to talk with him. We don’t have to wonder how that relationship went. In other words, this song is not about her…. Hee-hee. Or the old man for that matter. However, there are moments when paths cross, sometimes coming from very different trajectories and all of a sudden something wonderful happens in that moment. Gather, you might have experienced that too. This song is about a brief encounter with a kindred spirit, where our life trajectories did not change: A moment in passing. The song also contains some socially relevant thoughts/ lyrics about the world and my experience of it. Thoughts are thoughts though, and I find the more flexibly malleable I am with them, especially when it comes to the relative truths they may, or may not contain, the freer I am. Seems the more I attach to thoughts and refuse to change, the worse off it seems to get… But that’s just me. Hope you enjoy the song, Mark

Lammbone's Album

Moment In Passing

/больно махать с пирона вслед/
drawn people wave to us
from the compartments - carriages

it's time for them

they draw promises - to come back..
and that they already miss you
that they are so sorry..

and on the glass of the heart
they write..
with paper with tears in their eyes

and then erase..

cold or sadness on their faces?

and it seems that they are yearning and suffering
but the train has started moving
and they forget..

drawn people wave to us
from the compartments - carriages

where?
where -
they will go now
so that our love does not burn out..

it doesn't matter to them -
where to draw feelings..
and then erase everything..
erase..

and forget...



нам машут нарисованные люди 
из купе - вагонов

им ехать надо

они рисуют обещания - вернуться ..
и что уже скучают
что им так жаль..

и на стекле сердцА 
выводят ..
с бумажными слезами на глазах

а потом стирают ..

на лицах их простуда или грусть

и будто бы тоскуют и страдают
но поезд тронулся
и забывают..

нам машут нарисованные люди
из купе - вагонов

куда 
куда
они теперь поедут
чтобы любовью нашей не сгореть

не важно

им - где чувства рисовать ..
и всё стирать
стирать

и забывать ...

Cast of Characters:

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – 4-string fretless bass
Mysterious Decibel-- @themysteriousdecibel  --MD—effected vocals
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ-- organ, trippy synth
Llanpsych-- @llanpsych -- Tez – electric guitar
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen– electric guitar, production, mix, and mastering
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums and seed idea 
Composition – The Eclectic Collective

This song began about half a year ago, as part of a three song set that Ken started with some really cool beats. Josh was first to the trough for here, laying in his fretless bass groove to complete the foundation and give it some tonal direction. Stephen came next and laid in the really trippy textural guitar that you hear throughout. JJ was next with his serious, no joke organ playing, which sets the mood for the whole thing. Last, but not least, Tez joined by adding some really cool accent guitar throughout.
  Of course, every great song needs a great producer, so we tapped Stephen to do the honors on this.
  We had originally made this and the other two song with the intention of having The Mysterious Decibel and his friend Modes About Me sing on them. However, life got in the way, so we sat on them. Finally, MD let us know that he wasn't able to complete the project with us, much to everyone's, including his, disappointment. However, MD did lay down a rough vocal demo for us, which Stephen very ably processed to sound almost like another instrument in there. So, we're releasing this song as a tribute to them both, with gratitude, especially to MD for all the great work he's put in with us. If you're not familiar with either of them, do yourself a favor and check them out. Modes about me is at  @modesaboutme and the link to The Mysterious Decibel can be found in the link in the cast of characters above. 
  This is an example of what it sounds like when the whole band composes a song together. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.

Trancellocation

Four walls 

talk to me 
tell me anything 
that you don’t want to see me 
even that, it will fit me

Look at me 
I got you some chocolates 
I know you used to love it 
Today I don’t know, I don’t know anymore 

Where are you? 
We die of your absence 
of this indifference
your mind dances
between these four walls

talk to me 
hear your voice again 
to finally feed hope 
one day we’ll see you again

Remember 
that you guided our steps 
you were our king 
how to do without you 
we don’t know anymore 

Where are you? 
We die of your absence 
for you nothing matters 
you live in silence 
between these four walls

Where are you? 
We die of your absence 
please take the hand 
that I hold out to you
if there is a chance 
then talk to me
even if it hurts
I need to know 
if you know it’s me 
who's standing here in front of you.

Been Thinkin' About It

Been Thinkin' About It -With Ramixjoe ♈︎

Well this one is different . I asked Andrea to send me some mythical lyrics , which she did , and I put a basic idea for a song together . When I sent it to Axel to have a play about with it he completely transformed it into what it is  now . With his instrumentation and production , and Andreas fantastic and inspired lyrics , this is ( hopefully ) a joy to listen to , enjoy ! Next up on the 1st of November is a moody blues/rock song by Dave Cooper and myself , closely followed by 2 songs by myself . Me and Dave , and me and Gaz have just completed songs yet to have a release date , and me and Charlotte are half way through a new one . Thank you so much for listening .
Intro

Legend says a fortune

Can be found upon this earth

The map is in the Constellations

A myth of royal worth


V1

Queen Cassiopeia 

Known for her boastful vanity

Thought too highly of herself 

And enraged the powers that be


Punished by Poseidon

She was cast into the sky

Upon a golden throne she sits

Celestial she flies


Chorus 

Oh, she's beautiful

She sparkles in the night

Oh, she's beautiful

Majestic mystic sight (x2)


V2

She moved with the seasons

Slowly turning upside down

All the jewels adorning her

They fell upon the ground


The five bright stars denoting 

Five lost precious gems

The path to treasure can be yours

Connect the dots my friends


Chorus

Oh, she's beautiful

She sparkles in the night

Oh, she's beautiful

Majestic mystic sight (x3)


Solo duel


The five bright stars denoting 

Five lost precious gems

The path to treasure can be yours

Connect the dots my friends


Chorus

Oh, she's beautiful

She sparkles in the night

Oh, she's beautiful

Majestic mystic sight (x2)


Outro

=======================


Music created in July 2024
Editing, lyrics, vocals and covert art by Winkandwoo.

The original idea came from the chorus of the music. I thought of an accordion to create it, but unfortunately I couldn't find a good sound for the iPad for this instrument, so I scrapped the idea and replaced it with a soft synthesizer with some depth.

My partner in adventures, on this occasion, did the rest with an impeccable job full of creativity and elegance.

Thanks Clive, again, for this gift.

What are they feeding your mind
How are they seeding your kind

Illusion machine
It's bigger than you and me
Illusion machine
The demon's behind your screen

Why do they need you so much
When do they get in touch

Illusion machine
It's bigger than you and me
Illusion machine
The demon's behind your screen

Dancing In The Rain

Another tune from a few years ago. I wish it had no resonance with current events but sadly it seems that ignorance, fear, and hate have grown and been given license even more so than when it was originally written.

Apologies to friends who've heard this one already.

is it ever enough to want to feel sublime
is it ever enough when someone else is left behind

dark hearts dark thoughts dark gods
are still alive in the common blood
why do we hold these things inside ourselves
is it ever gonna stop
we are no better than the worst of us
is there something left to learn
would we even know if we found it

does it tear at your heart 
the way we keep each other down
tell me all about freedom
when a bullet puts another child on ground
if just for one moment we could look around
and see every hand held out

dark hearts dark thoughts dark gods
are still alive in the common blood
why do we hold these things inside ourselves
is there nothing to be done
we are no better than the worst of us
is there something left to learn
would we even know if we found it

La femme que j’aime
Dort à côté de moi
Il n’y a pas de problème
Mais elle ne m’aime pas
La femme que j’aime
Dort à côté de moi
Et ses rêves la promènent
Vers un autre que moi
La femme que j’aime
Déjeune en face de moi
Au petit matin blême
Le silence et le froid
La femme que j’aime
Déjeune en face de moi
Et ses pensées l’emmènent
Vers un autre que moi
La femme que j’aime
Va au travail sans moi
Me laisse à mes poèmes
Elle, trime pour l’état
La femme que j’aime
Va au travail sans moi
Et son chemin la mène
Vers un autre que moi
La femme que j’aime
Quitte son boulot déjà
Elle est toute légère
Elle sourit même je crois
La femme que j’aime
Quitte son boulot déjà
Et son élan l’entraîne
Vers un autre que moi
La femme que j’aime
Rentre le soir chez moi
Se plaint d’une migraine
D’un rhume ou du froid
La femme que j’aime
Rentre le soir chez moi
Éprise d’une étreinte
D’un autre homme que moi
La femme que j’aime
Est partie il y a un mois
Me laissant son empreinte
Son odeur dans les draps
La femme que j’aime
Est partie il y a un mois
Et depuis mes poèmes
Ne parlent que de toi

The woman I love

The woman I love
Sleeps beside me
There is no problem
But she doesn't love me
The woman I love
Sleeps beside me
And her dreams take her
To someone other than me
The woman I love
Has lunch in front of me
In the early morning
Silence and cold
The woman I love
Has breakfast in front of me
And her thoughts take her
To someone other than me
The woman I love
Goes to work without me
Leaves me to my poems
She toils for the state
The woman I love
Goes to work without me
And her path leads her
To someone other than me
The woman I love
Leaving work already
She's so light
She's even smiling I think
The woman I love
Leaving work already
And her momentum carries her
To someone other than me
The woman I love
Comes home in the evening
Complains of a headache
A cold or the cold
The woman I love
Comes home in the evening
In love with an embrace
Of a man other than myself
The woman I love
Left a month ago
Leaving her mark on me
Her scent in the sheets
The woman I love
Left a month ago
And since then my poems
Speak only of you

Another one done from the album Wou-Wou & the Wormling, Bitzone, Stricknice, and I have been working on for almost 5 years now! You can definitely hear some of those 2020 themes in these songs. I feel like the world is starting to change and new themes will start emerging, so we had better finish up soon, lol. There are definitely two more songs from the set still to be released, and maybe a bonus track, and then we will be done…It has been a dream to work with these guys! I wonder what's next?

May everyone who’s looking, find an incredible team of musicians to work with.

Lyrics

Yo, this is your daily routine rap
4:30 already and it’s time to hit snooze cause you know waking up is wack
5:30 already and I am looking for excuse to get right back in the sack  
Gotta brush the teeth and I can’t forget the gums everyday I’m fighting that plaque 
Heading downstairs I’m already on the run to eat breakfast and pack a snack
Next to get dressed I always put the layers on to keep warm yet still look like a mac
Then I’m out the door one hour past dawn to get to work without catching no slack

Wake up
Time to wake up

Yo, time to hit the routine again
3:30 already and I should be off the clock but my boss said I had to work late
4:30 already and I gotta bust out daycare can no longer wait 
Gotta hit the drive through and get the kid a snack it’s been 2 hours since she last ate
CDs in the player for an hour of tunes you know rush hour traffic don’t abate
When I get home I take the dog for a walk so he can find a pole to finally liberate 
Then it’s time to cook dinner got no time to work out so you know I’m gonna pack on that weight

Wake up
Time to wake up

Yo, we’re not done yet
8:30 already need to get the kid ready for bed but she  still wants to play
9:30 already and kid still isn’t ready now we’re yelling cause there’s no other way
I wanna keep my cool but I’ve had it up to here and I just want to get on with the day
Dishes keep pilling and the laundry needs drying and the mess needs to all be put away
Instead I check out, binge a show, and stay up late even though tomorrow I’ll have to pay  
Then I fall asleep on the couch just to do it all again it’s all just a big cliche. 

Wake up
Time to wake up

It’s time to wake the fuck up

Wake Up!

Stricknice, Bitzone, Wou-Wou & The Wormling, and the Couch King - Wake Up!

Hey…. Did this song go in so many directions until this final recording. It started as an electric slide song, then a mandolin song, and finally as an acoustic guitar/recorder song. You know I laugh every time I play recorder. Just imagine a rough and scrappy, wild old man creating such a thing. Hahahahaha. Anyway, there are a lot of crows here. When I was working on the slide version, I heard them cawing outside as they flew by. (I scrapped my impromptu birdcall crowing on this, no one needs to hear that, not even the crows.) Lyrically the song has 2 distinct moods with some vocal transitioning. And guess what folks: As a novice singer, I can finally vibrato my voice… some more shenanigans you’ll have to put up with. Back to the crows. In town, we have a huge flock (murder) of town crows. Hundreds. They sure love fast food, and hanging out by the high school where tasty, tossed tidbits can be had. They are organized too, as if in an air force, as they are mostly wary of us humans… Finally, happy holidays to all who celebrate, and happy times to everyone else. Hope you enjoy this one. I sure did. Mark

As The Crow Flies

Drizzling Rain

This song is a remake of a previous track, "I'm Busy Now." 
In Japan, December is also known as Shiwasu, a term that depicts the extreme busyness of the season, suggesting even one’s mentor or master is rushing around.

Composition and Sampling collage by Synline.

You're Busy Now

Heal me with a wounded heart
Animate my failed resolve
Pull these wires from my skin
They'll tear the flesh, but I'll be whole within

And begin to live
Like a human being

'Cause I've lost control and I'm growing tired
Can't trust myself 'cause I'm a liar
I'm losing hope and I need to know
What is the key to being whole?

Now I've a noose for every limb
They suffocate rebellion
So rend the sinew from the bone
Displace the ones I've let upon your throne

For who you serve
Comes back in turn

I've lost control and I'm growing tired
Can't trust myself 'cause I'm a liar
I'm losing hope and I need to know
What is the key to being whole?

Please realign all my desires
'Cause I've lost control and I'm growing tired
Can't trust myself 'cause I'm a liar
I'm losing hope and I need to know
What is the key to being whole?

Pop Story

rotten weather   rollin’ in

we’ll go walkin’ anyway

‘gainst the wind


get your go-bag ready
load the car up


did you hear it?  distant roar

keep your ear down to the ground

check the score


get your hard hat ready
fill those bottles up


i can’t remember
were you there?
your fingers running
through my hair


let them come now  let them try

beating down the beautiful

of our tribe


purple mountains raging
blackened skies 
constitution’s aging
battle cry 

high angels  hiding

my country  dying

(not too late)   (late)

let’s listen  let’s breathe 

(not too late)   (late)

I'm singing Nananananana......

If I am a little unhappy
I find some songs that I love
Play them loud on the speaker
And have my own little singing show

I'm singing nananananana....

When I have to do some cleaning
But my energy is low
I play some good music
And sing along while the dirt has to go

I'm singing nananananana...

So if you feel a bit lonely
And your energy is low
Put on some good music
And have your own little singing show

You're singing nananananana.....

Singing Na Na

Between July and November 1916 one of the most harrowing events in warfare history took place , the Battle of the Somme . In a largely pointless campaign , only 6 miles of French land was reclaimed , the British had 420,000 casualties , the French 194,000 and the Germans over 440,000 , a very sobering thought ! The people who gave the orders said to the men " We're right behind you " About 35 miles from the front in relative safety , not exactly right behind the men at the front risking their lives , what a waste of British , French and German souls . This is the story of a mans journey to the front , and having told that sad tale I do hope you enjoy it ! Back with a Xmas song on the 20th , and Charlie and the Fox finish the year off on the 27th , loads coming up in the New Year ! Thank you so much , and if you get chance have a listen to a track or 2 from me and Charlottes new album

It’s evident that when such talented artists, who also happen to be my friends, join forces for a collaboration, the result is bound to be as extraordinary as their imagination. The vocals, graciously contributed by Rekha, are brimming with heartfelt emotion and vibrant energy. Her voice effortlessly guides the listener through a transcendental soundscape—a beautifully crafted auditory journey brought to life by the creativity and mastery of Delaflor & Midisound. Each element of their work blends seamlessly, creating a composition that feels both otherworldly and deeply moving, a reflection of their artistic synergy and vision. Congratulations! Best regards to all of You 😘

It took me a moment to connect with this song, but the energy is infectious bounding between the bass and sitar and Rekha's vocals. Superb production work in what looked to be a complex process.

All I Ever Wanted

All I Ever Wanted - Music by Midisound | Music by Delaflor | Music & Lyrics by REKHA - IYERN [Fe]

This song is a bit campy. The core of this thing is pure Isley Brothers' formula from the 70s -- they had these no nonsense, hard slamming funk songs that just went on forever (and you want them to). And there's also a healthy dose of 80s/90s slinky funk guilty pleasures like Grace Jones, Sade, & Seal.

is it finally living this feeling inside
I waited for hours with a slow burning fire
now is not the time to evade in the face of desire

but that's how it goes when you hold the control does it feel right
you're letting it go and I know that you know are you satisfied

the rules of the game are so easily changed
let's be honest about it lonely hearts will stray
I am still willing but your love is failing me every night

oh but that's how it goes when you're running the show  how you feel it
you're letting it go and I know that you know I can't steal it

out in the city new hearts align   
but tonight I am only alive for yours and mine

I've been doing so many collabs that it seems almost rare to put out a solo track! Here is one that I thought works pretty well on its own... thanks for checking it out.

lyrics:
Hear my body scream, hear my soul is weak, i can't control anymore
i tried to set it free, i tried to tame this freak, but it's up to self control

and i will never learn and trust is hard to earn
as i lose my self again...

Bright lights calling me, neon life sets me free and i am right here to stay
The sun rise up again and i still understand the dues we have to pay

From Your Eyes feat. Frank Zozky & Paploviante

I woke up early this morning. During this time of year is it mostly dark and we only get a few hours of daylight. Daytime is usually grey, either snowing or just grey. But days like today, when the sun shines and there are no clouds do it instead become magical, a bit more cold, today it was around -20. The cold weather makes the trees get all frozen and the sky skifts to all kind of opalescent colors. I witnessed this today with my cup of coffee. I had to try and capture this feeling.

Tribute to Merle Haggard R.I.P.

        HE PULLED US INTO HIS WORLD
	AND LET THE MUSIC UNFOLD
	HOOKED US FROM THE START
	IT WAS WAY DOWN IN HIS SOUL
	
	WHEN IT COMES TO COUNTRY
	YOUR IN IT OR YOU AIN'T
	HAGGARD WAS IN IT
	PLAYED FROM CAN TO CAN'T
	
CHORUS
	MERLE SANG ABOUT LIFE
	THE GOOD TIMES AND BAD
	HEART AKES AND STRIFE
	COULD MAKE UM' RHYMN..MAKE UM' SAD
	HAGGARD IS GONE
	YEA, THE HAG IS GONE
	HIS MUSIC LIVES ON
	YEA, HIS MUSIC LIVES ON
	
 	PEOPLE CAME FROM ALL AROUND
	TO HEAR THAT BAKERSFIELD SOUND
	MADE THAT TELECASTER TWANG
	WE LISTENED WHEN HE SANG
	
	MERLE TRAVELED FAR AND NEAR
	TO SING HIS COUNTRY SONGS 
	IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE HE'S GONE
	HIS MUSIC WILL ALWAYS LIVE ON
	
	(REPEAT CHORUS 2 times)
	
	NO NEW SONGS ABOUT KERN RIVER
	HE WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN…NO, NEVER 
	
	© 2017 Lyrics by Tony Harris (BMI)

Haggard Is Gone - Lyrics by Tony Harris - Vocal & Music by Phillip Clarkson - Original

There is so much talent and variety here, and most of the people are pretty cool too. I love being part of this community. Listening to your music and being heard in return is enough.

Still reading? OK I'm gonna muse a bit. It's hard to fully convey how much this forum has meant to me. There are people I've never met that feel very much like old friends -- and in a very real way they are.
If I follow someone I make every effort to listen to and support their efforts. It's certainly not a transactional relationship but I do tend to limit my follows to people who engage in mutual listening and engagement.
