Slide Guitar Anthem

Back when people respected honesty and clarity, we were listening to those protest songs by Judy and Joan, those who survived the pressure; Back then producers used to say, "If you can't make your point with one guitar and a microphone, you have no point to MAKE! Now, they say" anything goes for the money!" ANYTHING! Wait 'til the grid goes and people have to communicate more "personally" again? Us old hippies and the Amish will have it altogether! IF people could "slow their pressured lives down" and actually "listen" again, without having to be BLASTED by electronics? The lack of "strong drugs" might have helped too! She and Joan Baez are both still going strong! FORGET the guitar! Judy Collins could sing acapella and keep the crowd amazed! Besides, it's the CAPO she's using that causes the strings to loosen, requiring adjustments. The time that talent becomes how loudly one can scream into a microphone while disrobing for views, will soon dissipate, and quality will survive. Judy could have used her voice range to become a famous opera singer-but she kept to her standards. Love to hear her " Amazing Graze" over and over. "With Judy Collins & Joan Baez in Mind, "Why War?" "Time Goes By" and "Praying for Afghanistan"& "The Great Awakening.

"With Judy Collins & Joan Baez in Mind-Why War? "
There was a time, when Man knew he was right,
Peace was on his left, and war was on his right.
Man was right, so in the name of God, 
All mankind lost the land that he had trod.

.CH:
I would give you, anything, if to me you could explain,
Why, at one time, when we had everything....

There was a time, when Man, he could foresee, 
Said "War has always been, so war will always be...
"Aren't we proud? That was our philosophy...
God was dead... but not to me.

There was a time, when man knew he was right;
 Peace was on his left, and War was on his right.
Man was right, So in the name of GOD...
Will All mankind lose the land that he had trod.?

 God was dead, and we were living.
 No God was living, and we were dying.
There's no right or wrong, but we keep trying...
There's no right or wrong...
We're all gone. 
I would give you anything, if to me, You could explain.

"With Judy Collins & Joan Baez in Mind, Why War? "Take One w Viol.

This song was written whilst on one of many walks in a nature reserve that stretches along the edge of my suburb in Sydney, and on these many walks I would stretch my mind with the end of getting my music making partner back again.... which I did.

When you have counted
The reasons why
Checked them all over
And over again
Not missing any
Reiterated
Contemplated

Throw them all away
Judge and jury on your side
Could be a brand new day
Doesn't have to mean
You were not right

We had it all
Laid out in court
The crimes were clear
Right there to see
Malevolence
Unjustified
No provocation
As you can see

Throw it all away
Judge and jury on your side
Could be a brand new day
Doesn't have to mean
You were not right

Hysteria is blinding
So can be love
But who's to say
What's there to see
Cause every person
Sees these things a little bit
Differently

Brand New Day

An pensive little summer piece, reflecting on the discreet charm of the bourgeoisie

Thus the native hue of resolution Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought [improvisation]

some days are loose
some days are bountiful
some days are bruised
and some days are logical
and some days get way out of hand
and some days are different than what we planned

dark time in Jerusalem Lord Lord
bent man on a mission
pulling a heavy load
born to be a runner oh no no no no
no more than a witness
to what the morning holds

some days are plain
some days are magical
some days we loose
and some days it's go to go
and some days get way out of hand
and some days are nothing like what we planned

(break)

some days are empty
some days are righteous
some days I sin to much
and some days I rise
and some days get way out of hand
and some days are nothing like what we planned

sweetness in the morning
send me her best
run around this dusty old town
and I'm looking for the rest
now sweetness she talks to me
God knows she alive
and when the sun goes down
sweetness lay down by my side

some days are loose
some days are bountiful
some days are bruised
and some days are logical
and some days get way out of hand
and some days are nothing like what we planned

some days are loose
some days are bountiful
some days are bruised
and some days are logical
some days are plain
some days are magical
some days we loose
and some days it's go to go
some days are empty
some days are righteous
