Killing The Blues

Long Time Coming - Collab with Tom Adams

A number of years ago, the conversation went something like "Hey, it would be nice to do some music with you sometime."  Apparently, this is sometime - after time...Barbara on lead vocal, Grant doing all the work AND harmonies...

Time After Time - Parker/Aldonas

Something very different in a way for me - not that I don't sing this way, but I usually don't get someone to play this for me to sing...does that make sense?  Thanks Grant!

Gimme Shelter

So happy to get a chance to sing on this track - was just feeling it :) Great guitar work - and mixing/engineering from Grant...

For What It's Worth (BP Vocal)

This track is from the album Emergence and is available for purchase on CD Baby here: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/barbaraparker

I Can't Be in Love With You

Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

Long Time Coming

Strangers At a Dance

Between the Lines

Black Bird

This is just for fun - we got together to help test some new equipment - had never played together...just random friends making music :)

Angel From Montgomery

Trying to keep up with Bob when he is on a roll is probably one of the toughest things I do - and most fun.  This interpretation of John Hiatt's song comes from some pretty important places in me, and Bob carries it with a very sensitive accompaniment...I've just replaced this file with Bob's latest mix...sooo much better :)

Have a Little Faith in Me - with Bob Warner

For some reason, these great old songs from the 60's just keep coming to mind...


The Letter

When Bob suggested I sing this song, I was totally intimidated by Reba's version, but he was persistent - and gave me such pretty guitar tracks that I had to give it a go...

Sweet Music Man Parker/Warner

I've always loved Eddy Arnold - and since I could never yodel or sing Cattle Call - I chose this much simpler song...

I Wish I Didn't Love You So

Dietmaar is a big fan of Amy Winehouse, and I reach back a little further (okay, a lot further) for most of my inspiration, but his guitar track for this is sweet...I hope he likes my rendition :)  This Sunday morning I have replaced the file with one slightly modified to bring out more of that delicious guitar...it seems better from this end :)

Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow Parker/Frits - Revised

When I was a kid I had to watch a film loop of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge going down in a windstorm - over and over.  I think it was meant to make us want to be engineers...but for me it has given me a lifelong "respect" for bridges.  The bridge over the Chesapeake Bay...voted the scariest bridge in America...that's the one I get to force myself over these days...

The Dragon of the Chesapeake

Grant's arrangement of The Police classic, vocally interpreted from another perspective...

Every Breath You Take - Parker/Aldonas

Bob with his lovely multiple guitar track made it difficult to turn down the chance to sing this...

Mr Bojangles Parker/Warner

It has been a long time since I have listened to Emmy Lou's Wrecking Ball, so I am grateful to Grant for bringing this back to me, and in such a way.  The guy is wizard at backing and mixing.  I enjoy too the backing vocals...thanks so much!

Where Will I Be Aldonas/Parker

The First Cut Is The Deepest

Cryin' Won't Bring You Back Parker/Aldonas

I appreciate the opportunity to work with Grant on his great original piece.  It is, in addition to everything else, a great piece of engineering.  Working from a distance, as we do in these collaborations, there is a tremendous amount of work that goes into making it sound as though we are on the same stage.

Have I Told You Lately

Dancing Dress Remix

Recorded live, it would have been nice to have the piano pulled in more, but Bob Warner mixed this - is it very vocal forward...but live is sometimes just live :)Bob did the best that could have been done, I think.  Thanks Bob!

Cryin' Time

Another one I am grateful to Bob for mixing a bit.  Recorded live, it really doesn't do Joe Holt justice for his contribution to my music...
