mY mOST lIKED tRACK.  THIS PLEASES ME BECAUSE IT WAS AN HONEST WRITTEN SONG WITH THE OLD STORY FROM DAD. THE COW JUMPED OVER THE MOON.  yES HE WOULD SAY HE COULD LASSO THE MOON AND CATCH A STAR WITH A SPOON WHEN WE WENT CAMPING AND STARRED UP AT THE STARS.

This is a song about the senseless loss of life and landscape in Ukraine. Peace and Love! Lyrics:

1955 

As beauty fades,
as the ground begins to shake,
golden fields turn into
desolate moonscapes.

On both sides: eye for an eye.
The most important question
to be asked is: why?

Men who decide, but
never fight in a war,
command others to die 
while they remain secure.

(You asked) where 
have all the flowers gone?
This was in 1955!
You got no answer.
And quiet flows the Don
It carries on…

As language fails,
as human decency goes off the rails,
our attempts to help were sadly to no avail.

On both sides: eye for an eye.
The loss of life and landscape is unjustified.

Mighty men make decisions,
but never fight in a war. They
command others to give their lives
while they remain secure.

Oh, where have
all the flowers gone?
This was in 1955!
Still no answers.
And quiet flows the Don
It carries on…

How can it be
that in 2023
there are 22 wars
and so little peace?

Oh, where have
all the flowers gone?
This was in 1955!
Still no answers.
And quiet flows the Don
It carries on…

1955

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

GOD, GUNS, AND AMERICA!

Black And Blue Shiloh Dynasty

Dreamed about this song a few Saturday mornings ago. When I woke up I could only remember the Chorus. I spent the following week thinking of ways to tell this story. A Veteran seemed like a good choice to tell this story. Ps Don't Sell that Old Guitar!!!

Old Guitars, Cars and Women

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!!
