Hey Good Lookin' (Cover) Vocal by Tony - Music/Mix by Glenny G's "One Man Band"

So much talent from my part of the country (SW Louisiana, SE Texas) George Jones, Tracy Byrd, Mark Chesnutt, George Straight, Janis Joplin, Edgar Winters and the list goes on.  Tracy Lawrence sang with a Louisiana based band in 1988-1990.  He was shot 4 times by robbers in may 1991 which delayed his first album Sticks and Stones.  He was named top new male country vocalist in 1993.  He continues to create great music.  Just one of my favorite Tracy Lawrence songs.

Special Cecilia GOOD MORNING HEARTACHE Revisited + Extra - VOCALS for Collab

Lyrics by Tony Harris (that inspired Glen to work on this production)
Vocals, Music and mix by Glenny G's "One Man Band"
 
WHEN HE WAS TEN YEARS OLD
AND LISTENIN' TO HIS RADIO
HE GOT A BURNIN' IN HIS SOUL
HIS LOVE FOR MUSIC WOULD UNFOLD

HE STARTED LISTENIN' TO THE WORDS
NOT JUST THE MELODIES
NOT JUST THE VOCALS 
OR THE GREAT GUITARS

(CHORUS)
IF YOU'VE GOT A BURNIN' IN YOUR SOUL
TO WRITE YOUR SELF A SONG
PUT PEN TO PAPER
IT MIGHT BE A KEEPER
IF YOU'VE GOT A BURNIN' IN YOUR SOUL

HE LOVED LISTENIN' TO CASH
HAGGARD, HANK AND PRINE  
IN THE MUSIC WORLD
THEM BOYS MADE A SPLASH

A STORYTELLER'S DREAM
IS THAT YOU LISTEN TO THE WORDS
AND FEEL WHAT HE FEELS
THAT'S WHY HE DOES WHAT HE DOES

(REPEAT CHORUS )

IF YOU'VE GOT A BURNIN' IN YOUR SOUL
TO WRITE A GOSPEL SONG
ASK GOD TO GIVE YOU THE WORDS
THAT WILL PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME

(REPEAT CHORUS - OPTIONAL)

Drive me insane

The A-side of my new single "Cynical Morning Smoke". Listen first here on SoundCloud. Release on other plattforms November 21st. (2024). A rather ironic song about bad winter mornings.

Cynical Morning Smoke

I am very glad to present you my new track "For more humanity". Please feel free to leave a comment what you think about or just listen to it. :-)

For more humanity

the first time i saw you, i was hypnotized.
from that day i knew, had to be by your side.
the smile of salvation, looking back at me.
the face of an angel, come to set me free.

my angel

you are amazing, there's no one like you.
a heart full of love, a soul that's good and true.
even in the darkness, you shine like a guiding star.
one in a million, that's just what you are.

my angel

My angel.

“Finding YOUR WAY does not mean that you always know where you are going. The important thing is that you know how to find your way HOME…”.

“TAKE ME HOME” feels nostalgic and familiar in its essence as the soundscape and lyrics remind you that our biggest quest is to uncover our truest selves and discover where we belong. Home is 
where you feel the most comfort and the most inspired, and when you arrive at that place, you'll never want to leave again.

Take Me Home

A personal song about loss, farewell and the certainty that you will see each other again someday!

I Will See You Again

An astronomer named Ted.
Was eating pizza alone in bed. 
He was obsessed with trying to find intelligent aliens
And he was tired of waiting for the interstellar phone to ring
And he was looking for a shortcut to the next big thing

As the pizza sauce ran down his chin
He flashed a great big messy grin
As it occurred to him that even aliens might enjoy human comfort food
And he was tired of waiting for the interstellar phone to ring
And he was looking for a shortcut to the next big thing

Like a sneaky dog who knows he’s being bad
He crept into the astronomy lab
And he placed a recording into the transmitter
Cause he was tired of waiting for the interstellar phone to ring
And he was looking for a shortcut to the next big thing

He set the signal to repeat again and again
Abd then he pushed the button that was labeled send
And message blasted out into the heavens
And then he went home and he climbed into to his bed
And this is what his message said

Come to our planet you really need to try. 
We’re begging you please you need to stop by.
We’ve got the best cheeseburgers in the milky way
So come on down and have one today
And if you’re still hungry we’ve got hot apple pie
You need to put this on your bucket list as something to eat before you die
So why don’t you beam yourself down and give it a try

In the morning he woke up to a shaking bed
And when he looked out his window the sky was red
From the fiery thrusters on the bottom of a flying saucer ship
And Ted realized that he was looking at the next big thing
There’d be no more waiting for the interstellar phone to ring

The flying saucer landed and strange aliens came out 
And a purple one with tentacles started to shout
He was pointing at what appeared to be his stomach
He said bring us some cheeseburgers and slices of apple pie
And it better taste good or your entire planet will die

But they enjoyed their food and asked for more
And then they left to fight a war
Against another planet that didn’t have any cheeseburgers.
And this is how first contact with aliens was made
And Ted was honored with a very big parade

And every single day more and more ships came 
And the reaction to the food was always the same.
Satisfied aliens of all shapes and sizes
And the earth became known as the cheeseburger planet.
And Ted married a sexy green alien named Janet.

Come to our planet you really need to try. 
We’re begging you please you need to stop by.
We’ve got the best cheeseburgers in the milky way
So come on down and have one today
And if you’re still hungry we’ve got hot apple pie
You need to put this on your bucket list as something to eat before you die
So why don’t you beam yourself down and give it a try

Cheeseburger Planet

It's always difficult to find people we are collaboratively compatible with ..  a compatibility of Spirit shall we say...  but from the moment I heard Gaz sing with his intense, captivating voice, I was hooked, and with the amazing production & direction given by Andy, I knew I was home.  It's such an honor and thrill for me whenever they ask me to join them on a song, and their style, musicianship, and sheer talent is always so inspirational, and infectious. The song has amazing vocal moments, and I dare say our vocal blend, and the mix by Andy, is heaven to me. To say this has a been a sheer Joy and a Thrill, is an understatement!!!   Gentleman, my friends, I thank you once again for allowing me to be part of the Kings..   You are both incredible xx. 

Ladies and Gentleman, I give you the Conscience of Kings..

Lyrics:
Stitch Your Name

V1
She said words can be beautiful but love is the real action
So stop talking now and show me that attraction
So I poured another glass of wine
I said tonight is the night then we combine
My God your so cheesy but being with you just makes easy

Chorus
If it’s on let’s think it
If it’s on let’s want it
If it’s on let’s do it
The tapestry of natures, embroidery
Stitch your name into my heart
The first letter is always the start

V2
I take that as compliment not treat it with contempt
Underneath the stars in a field in this tiny festival tent
Listening to the echoes of the weekend's event
Will stay with us forever and be always meant
And I don’t think I’ve ever this felt so content

Chorus to finish

EYES WIDE OPEN

The leaves are changing
There’s a chill in the air
So many people
Walking the same path

I hope they know
I hope they see

I chose a different road
I chose a different way
And now my eyes are open
My eyes are wide open

I’m on another hill
I watch as they pass me by
They seem to know
They have their destination

I hope they know
I hope they see

I chose a different road
I chose a different way
And now my eyes are open
My eyes are wide open

Such a wondrous time
So many colors
So many lives

All joined together
Some left behind
There’ll be another day
Another day

I chose a different road
I chose a different way
And now my eyes are open
My eyes are wide open

Eyes Wide Open

This is more of a story than a song , the wise words of Tony Harris , I just did some music and sang the chorus .
It really works , we hope you think so too ! On the 1st of Feb' me and Charlotte have a belter of a song released , this is closely followed by a great Blues/Rocker by me and Dave Cooper , with the one and only Glenny G on lead guitar . Then a song by myself , and me and Charlotte are working on a beautiful ballad . I did say I'm slowing things down this year , so it'll be longer spaces between releases . Don't forget the album Hopes and Dreams by Charlie and the Fox

Tupelo Honey and Rock n Roll

When https://soundcloud.com/dneye asked me for a track to play his fantastic guitars on, I brainstormed this 5/4 piece with odd chord set in order to make it difficult to him and thus get the best from his skills. After programming it, I added some organic solos (yep I played keys) to make it seem more friendly ;))))

And he... succeeded in the challenge, overcoming all my expectations !!!

Five by D'n'Eye: guitar1, guitar2, guitar3, guitar4, harp.
Five by E-Ruizzo: piano, bass, mellotron, organ, drums.

Hope you'll enjoy this our first post in the new year !!

THE UNFORTUNATE SON
                             
BEEN READING JOHN'S NEW BOOK				
SAW IT ON THE BOOK STORE SHELF				
DECIDED TO GIVE IT A LOOK				
JUST A FEW OF THEM WERE LEFT				
BEING A CCR FAN				
WELL I GAVE IT A READ				
I LOVED THAT SIXTIES BAND				
GLAD THAT JOHN TOOK THE LEAD				
THE FORTUNATE SON				
BECAME THE UNFORTUNATE ONE				
LEFT OUT IN THE COLD				
FOR A FEW PIECES OF GOLD				
OH THE FORTUNATE SON				
BECAME THE UNFORTUNATE ONE				
OH ,YEA, THE UNFORTUNATE ONE				
AFTER THE BAND BROKE UP				
HE DIDN'T PERFORM FOR AWHILE				
MET THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE				
CONVINCED HIM TO NOT GIVE UP				
THEN BEFORE TOO LONG				
HE WAS BACK ON TOP AGAIN				
WITH A STRING OF HITS				
FOREVER A BANSMAN				
THE FORTUNATE SON				
BECAME THE UNFORTUNATE ONE				
LEFT OUT IN THE COLD				
FOR A FEW PIECES OF GOLD				
AWESOME GUITARIST				
HE PRACTICED EVERY DAY				
ONE OF THE BEST				
HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD				
AND NOW HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD				
I'M SO GLAD HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD				
THE FORTUNATE SON				
BECAME THE UNFORTUNATE ONE				
BUT NOW HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD				
AND NOW HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD				
I'M SO GLAD THAT HE'S BACK IN CENTERFIELD

The Unfortunate Son - Lyrics by Tony Harris - Featuring Riff Beach - Original - ReMix 1/13/19

Pure Spirit - the art of uli-

The lyrics and melody for this song just came to me so quickly! All I could do to write lyrics down, play and record it......before I forgot anything. Quite a stripped-back song, really. Hope you enjoy it, regardless! ;)

Some songs just set a mood and feeling.  It was written in 1964 by 
Gordon Lightfoot and released in 1966.  It has been recorded by 
many artist to include Bob Dylan and Elvis.  I really like Jerry
Reed's version.

Early Morning Rain (Cover -Gordon Lightfoot)

Written by Chris Stapleton
Arranged and Performed by Josh McAlexander

Daddy Doesn't Pray anymore

Written by John Fogerty
Performed and Arranged by me
