Aaron Neville & Linda Ronstadt - Don't Know Much (FAYSHA REFIX)

“Early this morning, I felt like singing and playing guitar, so I recorded a vocal-guitar cover of 'The Sweetest Gift', a story type of Christmas song written by James B. Coats. 'The Sweetest Gift' has been recorded and performed by several music artists over the years including Craig Aven, Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris, The Judds, Trisha Yearwood. I remember the very first time I heard The Judds, Naomi and Wynonna, sing this beautiful song during their Farewell Concert and tour in 1991. I was just so touched. And ever since, this song has been a part of me.” (December 28, 2023)

A tribute to the wonderful Linda Ronstadt.  Vocals by Joe Borowsky

Dark Eyed Lady

I'm working on updating my previously released version of this song (which is my favourite song of all time). In the process, I made a live version, and thought it sounded okay. So here it is!

Dreams to Dream (Live)

As I approach my 67th birthday, I once again go through old tapes and old photos. Seldom when I go through the old audio tapes of years gone by, am I ever riveted by a recording as with this one. This was Liquid Sunshine (#2) 1976, an attempt to replace the magic of the old Liquid Sunshine of yore. Though we all never became the eternal friends as it once was in the original Liquid Sunshine ... this was a truly decent band. We worked steady and we had a great sound.

Me, Bobby Andriulli on bass and vocals (of the original Liquid Sunshine) Joey Miranda on drums and Denny Miller on guitar. 

I learned a LOT of guitar from Denny!

I doubt many of you will remember the “Dial Tone” chain in Connecticut. (was it a chain?) Where each table or booth was numbered and had a telephone sitting there connected to a main switchboard system in the club. To ask someone to dance or for a chat you ... dialed them up!

Kind of a great gag. 

It was a slow night that night at the Dial Tone in Seymour Connecticut. Hardly anyone was there. But we had a BLAST! We performed as if we were at Wembley! To boot ... it was Denny’s birthday, which lead to a hilarious onstage laughing hysteria! 

What amazes me about this recording is ... well first of all ... the recording itself! Mixed live onto stereo reel-to-reel by 5th Liquid Sunshiner Sam Eurich. It was a miracle of a recording ... almost perfect studio quality. On top of this ... we gave our all.  

Now that I am in my later years ... I hear how much I used to use the voice during these performances. (I was 19 at the time ... almost 20) The massive amount of singing ... the endurance ... is truly something. And this is not the FULL recording!!!! Over an hour is missing!

Anyway ... some songs in our repertoire at this time are not heard ANYWHERE anymore. Especially impressive (because they were so damned DIFFICULT to cover) are the two “Average white band” songs! On the first one, the tape ran out ... as tape had a tendency to do! 
You younger folks have NO IDEA!

This ended up being a great concert. Some really fun and great songs from this time period to be heard! Hope you enjoy!
....................................................................................................
I am sincerely thrilled at the response for the “Liquid Sunshine Dial tone 1976” recording! Guess a bunch of us truly remember that period of our lives!
For this reason, I decided to go against my better judgement and include the missing tracks from the evening. NOT that they are bad, or inferior, or something ... it’s just that ... one has to remember ... it was Denny’s birthday and one “partook” in the raising of a beverage or two! We ah ... partied pretty hardy. We started to get silly (and inventive) making all sorts of musical jokes and even changing the words intentionally to songs ... (see if you can catch them!)
If you listened to the first version till the end (Beatle Set) Just forward past that!

Liquid Sunshine live at  Dial Tone in Seymour CT 1976

“I felt so intrigued and hopeful this morning that I decided to record an acapella cover version track and make a companion music video of the beautiful and emotional song 'I Will Always Love You', written by Dolly Parton back in 1973, and recoded by Dolly Parton herself, Linda Ronstadt, Whitney Houston, LeAnn Rimes, Vince Gill, and many other talented singers and musical artists. 'I Will Always Love You' has always been a true classic song for me throughout my life and continues to touch my heart and soul with so much detail and emotional strength from deep within who I am. I truly felt so vocally powerful and so emotionally strong while singing and recording 'I Will Always Love You'.” (November 5, 2024)

I Will Always Love You

No one can stand to see a baby cry

There's an old cafeteria in north Californ
Where you dine and converse between midnight and morn
Twas there at the table by word I was warned
That a chilly wind soon will be blowin

The first thing that happened when I left the room
I was walking the pavement on a pale afternoon
My nose caught the smell of the water and gloom
It followed me as I was going

The air, it was quiet, no movements to fear
The song of the bluebirds were all I did hear
They sailed down the sky as the darkness drew near
To a branch down below I was walking

On to Santa Rosa while riding along 
I joined the young children in stories and song
Just then came the wind; it was crying and strong
So loud that it drowned out our talking

As I was dismounting it happened like this
The leaves were a'rustling in a hurricane twist
The branches a’bending as the water did hiss
The rain and the cold were in progress

With trembling footsteps I reached for the mat
Then twisting the handle of the door I was at
I tried to keep warm in my jacket and hat
While heeding the pound of the rainstorm

Then turning around I could smell the perfume
A soft hearted lady by the light of the moon
Her voice met the wind that was whisltin’ the tune
A song that could fasten your heartbeat

“Come softly, come softly,” she said unto me
As the thunderstorm echoed in say can you see
She opened the front door and spoke gently
The warmth of the home was  inviting.

She fed me a hot meal of chilli and bread
And away in her arms I laid down my sweet head
As she sang the emotions ol’ Smokey once said
Someday I'll have you back forever

I woke the next morning and wondered in vain
Will I ever see my sweet darlin again
Or just hear the saxophone crying in pain
In a song of emotional sorrow

With ears of attention I stared to the room
Where the pretty young woman once sang me the tune
I hear quite often dusk meets the moon
And remember the love that ran through it

I play my harmonica with no end at all
Said Sun to the pine trees, “O please heed the call!”
The song my harmonica plays most of all
Is Dylan’s Mr. Tambourine Man 


The Ballad of Chilly Winds

We adapted this from Linda Ronstadt's version.


Adieu false heart, since we must part
May the joys of the world go with you
I've loved you long with a faithful heart
But I never anymore can believe you

I've seen the time I'd have married you
And been your constant lover
But now I'll gladly give you up
For one whose heart is truer

My mind is like the constant sun
From the east to the west it ranges:
Yours is like unto the moon
It's every month, a changin'

When I lay down to take my rest
No scornful morn to wake me
I'll go straight ways unto my grave
Just as fast as time can take me

Adieu false heart, since we must part
May the joy of the world go with you
I've loved you long with a faithful heart
But I never anymore can believe you

The most meaningful interests of my life include: my daughter, Keira Lynn, writing my own songs, as well as singing from my soul. Music has always been the first love of my life, specifically, country music. The day Keira was born she proved, to me, that love truly is beautiful.

I have always been a songwriter and a poet, as well as a singer at heart. I can spend hours on end just sitting and writing and picking guitar or messing around on the piano/keyboard. The sound of a violin/fiddle just strikes my heart down to my soul, which is why I took up the violin at the age of twenty-one. My daughter, Keira, gives me reason to live this life every day. I was diagnosed with myasthenia gravis, MG, an autoimmune muscle weakness illness, in July of 2011. Keira is such an inspiration to me, making me not want to give up, even when I get so weak. She is my song that lingers into hope. Keira will always continue to be the song of my whole life.

-Song is personal –Jenn

I am huge into writing my own songs (mainly a lyricist, while picking around with chords on guitar or putting some notes together on keys on the piano/keyboard or the violin/fiddle). I have been writing for several years and have taken two-and-a-half years of voice and guitar lessons. I just have never found exactly where to place my music. I always keep the hope and the prayer that success may be within the next page of my life.

“So, I noticed today, while looking over my many songs on SoundCloud, that I have over 200 plays for my self-written, recorded song 'Now That I’m Taken'. Wow. I’m so truly grateful. Thank you to the people who have taken the time to listen to my song. And thank you to God for guiding me in the music that I so deeply and so completely and honestly love. What an honored gift. I feel so touched and so blessed.” (September 23, 2022)

A place for my voice memes and rough drafts

I host two shows on 103.5 The Sun, a community radio station in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. Hey! Ho! Let's Go is punk/alternative rock. Gregslist is rock, hip hop, soul, blues, reggae, country -- a little bit of everything. (Also former host of a show called Country Gold, which you will find archived here.)

UK based multi genre producer with previous releases on some of the scene's biggest drum and bass labels and now focusing on catching vibes within the world of synthpop, lofi, ambient and funk with some cheeky little refixes thrown in for good measure!!!

The great news is the song co written with Mike Baldwin, Can't Lose Those Memories, has won the Country category in the UK Songwriting Contest 2024.  I've had a few final places but never a win, I'm a very happy man.  Thank you for wonderful lyrics Mike.
I have been a guitar player and lead vocalist since the age of 13, performing in bands of varying genres including Pop, Heavy Rock, Folk & Modern Country.  Main instrument is the guitar, influenced by a variety of artistes and styles including Mark Knopfler, The Eagles, Don Williams, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, Deep Purple and Santana. This has helped me to perform and write in different genres but I particularly enjoy Americana, modern country music and instrumental themes/incidental music.  
I play keyboard well enough to provide accompaniment and additional instrumentation to my recordings.  Now retired, I write, record and produce from a home studio.  Songwriting successes include shortlisted lyrics for a Commonwealth Song for HM The Queen in 2022, a song to be presented to Sir Cliff Richard in 2018, several UK Songwriting Contest Finalist Places and appearances on BBC radio in the UK.  I have successful collaborated with several other writers and performers across the UK and US.
