One of my Older Songs that stuck with me over the Years. We gave this some Fresh Herbs and Some Salt n Pepper to Rev It Up.

Mashed Potatoes w/Kevin Hite on Bass & B-up Vocals

Texas Style ZZ Top sound Bass, Guitar and Drums with a Solid Vocal.

They Call Her Runaround Sue

I was Surfing some New Sounds on My T.C. Electronics Voice Live III and came across some Floyd Synth which got me in a Pink Floyd Mood. I was Fooling with some simple One Stroke per Chord Change like  "Money" and came up with a Simple G,A,C,Em change up with an Em Rumble to a G,A,Em Power Series.

Love Addiction

Upbeat Tempo Blues in A with Cowbell. I Used Voice Live III Gender Gals to get this unique Sound. Grabbed my Guitar and just Tried out some Blues Shuffle that Worked Perfectly.  A to G, D to F, E to G with a Fantastic Drum Track I just Love. Hopefully you will Too!!!

Baby Blue Cadillac Mastered

Sounds Like a Loop, but I Played these three Chords Over and Over on top of a Cool Drum Track and just began Vocalizing and Came Up with this Crazy Song about a Mish-Mosh of Ideas!!!  Do You Disco? Do You Believe in Ghosts? Do You Do Your Own Thing?

Cast My Own Shadow

I wrote this Guitar piece first as an Instrumental and the Idea of Baby I got You was developed as I played. a Few days later I wrote the versus and finished the Song using most of the original Song. There is still something profound with the First Recording even though its mostly an Instrumental.

Baby I Got You

A friend of mine was laughing and saying I sound better after I had a shot of Whiskey! So a Shot Showed Up!! Well I laughed and said I Need a Double Shot!! Thanks to Jody Engel who produced these awesome backing tracks. Some say this was our best song together. Double Shot of Whiskey made it originally on D.I.Y. by L.D. Songs and was released as a single in 2014. I re-did the vocals utilizing new technologies in my studio.

Double Shot of Whiskey Mastered

I'm Thinking this could be a Sports Fanatic Themed Song. Maybe Hockey?

Make Some Noise ( Instrumental )

Written from a Real Experience at Moondogs Pub in March of 2018. My Man Ray was hooking up with the Girls and then the One in Black stole his attention.

Black Skinny Jeans

Just Another Old Fashioned Love Song I Suppose. Based off some partial truth and stretched truths from my youth.  Crazy Head Over Heels in Love with YOU!!!

Mama Didn't Raise No Cowboy

Girls must have a Secret Code. Boys think they Know the Code.  Deciphering the Code is an Utter Mistake!! But Here We GO!!!

GOTTA LOVE YOU

Pittsburgh Nachos, We Bleed Black N Gold

Shortened the Intro by Four Bars and Finished Out the Bridge and Outro Section.  Maybe there is still some possibility of Keys or some Lead Guitar. I will try out some Bass could try out some Mandolin Too!  I think the Vocals are Finished Unless I get some constructive criticism to  make changes.

Hang Around with Me ( Version 9-14-23 )

Built off a Nice Beat from a C,A,G,C Guitar Riff, I simply created a Few other accompanying elements to fill out the Song. I began writing the words one day after a demo recording off the Guitar Track. I had to remap out a few bars and drink a few Brews.

COME HANG AROUND WITH ME

A Dark Song for Halloween. Lots of Distortion on the Guitar and Deep Voice with effects to Sound CREEPY!!

Alone with You

Partially written from a true experience from a Girl I kissed in the Second Grade. Later in the Seventh Grade We Kissed Again. Diane may have actually given me THE FEVER!!  Must be A Full Moon Tonight!!  Recorded using Voice Live III  You Give Love A Bad Name Setting.  Played on my Washburn WI-64-DL.

Mary's Got The Fever

Johnny's Dad, the local Sheriff gets gunned down in Cold Blood by Two Brothers who manage to escape Justice until Johnny returns home one day to Settle the Score.  Very cool Sound effects.

Six Bullets

You Know You are a Songwriter, if You Can't Stop Writing Songs even if You Tried.  Sometimes I may go a few weeks but then I write 2 or 3. The Music Side is Tougher. I Never Know when I make that Connection, Lyrics to Song!!
