Just Like All The Rest

Dualism,  how the little things,  things that didnt matter at 1st,  but times goes by and we get used to them,   we do, or we break up, I know that for a fact, never get a divorce, Let love fly, make it cry, and keep your tears in a small glass vial,  mostly guitars,  this song has an up beat presence,  you got to live with these  little things, that some people divorce,  because some one forgot to put the cap on a tooth past tube     thx  V.Leeds
 Vincent
 

 

Im Gonna Luv Ya

Paul's famous song about?.....well you know, I hope you enjoy, thx Vincent
  I was a bit, nervous...in putting this up, because it is harder rock, & it wasn't the Beatles, it's me,  .. this is like moderate rock, not heavy Metal, 
......I never just "copy" a song,  I gotta be pretty right on, cuz us "Beatle People", are "ears up' too.   Now..  
..... l stressed about the about the vocals allot, & sang them last, ( I did do record shadow vocals, on this recording 1st thing ) Also, I don't play sax, so I used guitar fills for the motif, to make it sound cool, it's my version, of Paul's song,  Vincent,..of the guitar :)


Got To  Get You Into My Life

Pauls great song from, well that depends on what side of the Atlantic you are on, here in the States, it was on Rubber Soul,,  Vince

Lyrics below....
Maybe this has happened to you,  waiting for the girl, cuz she left, said she'd be back, but...never came...

Waitin'
   I'm in a room, that over sees, held your head between my knees,
remember all those words of love, now I hear them in a different light.
You promised me that you'd return, but  I'm waitin' in this darkened room
I kiss your picture when I went to sleep,... I pray to god,   that your soul will keep..
I'm waitin  patiently,...so patiently...
I think about you, in the night time,  it's hard to face it, cus it's really hard now
I heard your stories,  I still believe you,  after all, would you deceive me?...
    I kiss your picture as I go to sleep,... I pray to god,   that your soul will keep..
When you  coming back,..you're coming back...  
We cried together at the big train station,.. Making promises, they sound so good,..
You always said,  that you'd return..  well I'm not waitin' for you no more    
     I tore your picture in a fit of rage,   I tore your picture in a fit of rage...!
When you coming back?...
      here I wait,...here I go, again & again
When you coming back?

    Here I go,  here I wait, for you, for you to return

Thank Yopu

Wish

       I don't know who wrote this song,  I guess I did a bit, , I will tell you, how on this special golden day ,.....this,...   charming young man came into my Studio one afternoon in August,   maybe 3 years ago,....
      So,... He laid his notes & music & we read it,   I liked it for I always have enjoyed the Beatles,  So this isn't finished, maybe only 1/2 done,....   needs    more work,  not done yet,....well,,... 
    When He Left for the evening,    that night,........  I got to playing it and recorded some too, I thought it was going good, & I thought he'd be tbhrilled, s o much so....Well,   that was my thinking, I like it when others do things on my songs,    So I waited untill 1;00am the next day, it came & so did he, I had a broad smile and he knew it,  So I said,  "I have a surprice,   I did play some parts,  I hope you will like what I did...",...My word, he stood up, looked cross, looked at me and said....... why ?........
      I told you not to do anything with out me being here, what the heck did you do,  I replied,.  Please just listen to what I have done, I hope and I bet you'll like it,  I set it up,  gave him the best seat with phones if he wanted them,  So,  I played it for him,   when it  was over, he just looked like a crazy coyote and said you should have never have done this, I dont want it, & then,....get this,  he stormed out, leaving all his notes and everything,
   Well I didn't do any more recording,  the other day, about the 21st of August, I dusted it off & listened to it, and I was a  bit amazed, for it sounded good,  it told a story, So I made this little mix and to see what the ppl would think I asked for comments & I got allot,  so thats the story of this little song about our man George Harrison,  He was a qreat man, and not in the regular way, he meant something,   & it meant something to mean something to somebody not unlike him & hat means something to me,   how a bout you,
 that's my story & I am sticking to it,
your friend and some times guitarist,
Vincent Leeds
a song in progress, not finished yet but maybe in future..

Goodnight George Harrison

Blues, Acoustic, guitar, blues,  (and not even that good ) ,... 
done in the old school style, popular since the 1920's here in the USA and in other places on earth as well as popular with off Planet officers,..The police often mistake this for jazz blues, which it is not, the penalty for mis-using Blues in any form,  is,..... you being made to sit thru a Brittany Spears  marathon which if you didnt know,..listen to more than 2 minutes and you go insane,  so it is 2 minutes or until you go insane,.. 
 OK..............Have a listen, (not it Brittany,  to this blues song ),.. make a remark  and then type that remark in to the box that says, to make a comment,  use this box to write in, ..another word for remark is, "comment",... 
I hope all is OK with you and them in the old ole old Country,.....Your friend...

Billionaire Blues

Great RnR from the 50's, from, Paul McCartney, lets have a cheer and open the door & let him in,....Another song from the production team,  whose members are a certain,  Vincent Leeds  & Gordon Bentley,  together on the English high way heading towards Bristol,...from Devon,..
Didn't...Vincent do the lead guitars, bass, vocals, mix, production with lots of .........help from Gordon  ?  And didn't Gordon,...   mix the pre-production & post,....& then he shifted in some drums,...And of course,  The 2 guitars, with the keys, don't forget the arrangement  then he cooked & catered the event & sailed us all into the English Sea,  round the changing of the tide, it was cool, too, blue,  too you blue Capt. Morgan Gordon true blue few for you 2,   So for me,.. sue,...! ? .. and allot more that I dont know right now,

No Other Baby But You

Did you, Well,....I grew up listening to the Beatles, Stones,  Credence,  Sonny & Cher, the Stones, The Kinks, Out here in Los Angeles,...that was like a Dreamworld, a place that was out side my personal place & a place where any one could go to, & allot of them did,..10/03/16  new song & video, Gordon Bentley did the good new logo idea & the new image for the song,...a big thx, adds allot,..this is all fun.  &  nice to feel like something in this little "play house"  of a studio-space,  where we hang at at times,..
...Some thing  happened,  .well, that's to think about on another day   .  
.Vince
   I cut me teeth on those songs,   so it is clear to many that allot of kids, punks  like me,..we  had the same experiences,  like me & Tom  Petty, I didn't get rich and famous,  
 well,  we did go swim, and got cold and used black Diamond Guitar Strings   how about listening to the song and seeing if you have any of the same memories that I do, I think we do,  you tell me,,  
   All me, this,  all the instruments and the mix & the grape juice stains  do listen and make comments, say hi,.
  yup,

California, just a congested lung filled trip from Hollywood & Hollywood was our playground, and Play we did. ""I observe and try to put to music the poetry, in the way the world unrolls it'self right before us now... (whew, What a line)" Recorded all around the world but mostly in Granada. That's where the machines are...
""No!. I'm really into the Beatles and have a lot of Folk influences, from pure Irish folk to the newer 21th century prose. And ole fashion blues. But I really like Rock, and rhym and blues too, The reds are cool, but the greens are best, I mean the blues are best,... coupled with the major talent we have here in this world & the digital way of massaging the wavs, man, it's endless what can be done. Or have I said too much? Or enough for now?"" 
Nice recordings all, some recorded and sung better than others we hope all the songs here make sense to you. but we sold music for film and had a number of number ones, on many a chart.

I really dig Iggy Pop and Nirvana, & that genre of punk music...,  I write a catchy tune at times and other times I write and they sound like they could make you cry,  but hey!  that is OK,  it is alright to tear up, some time  I do it all the time,  (cry)  I'm doing it right now....  Help me if you can I'm feeling down, and Iove you being 'round,  and of course, you help me get up off the ground, Oh,   won't you help  me.....,    thanks all,, and thanks John Paul George and Ringo and Kurt  you're all number one's to me,   hang in there....Vincent Leeds 12 26 2016, Bakersfield California USA evrdman@aol.com
