Struttin' On Down

Recording this song makes me feel already better. Julia left Canada to go back in Sweden because her working permit expired. I of course feel sad and I miss her a lot. But we know it's just a matter of time before we see each other again. We are strong ! Thanks guys for sharing ! =)

I’d like to dedicate this song to Aida Kaly from Kazakhstan. I’ve met a lot of talented singers, musicians and composers on Soundcloud and she is certainly one of them. She sings in 3 different languages - English, French and Russian. Check out her sounds.



Rock ‘n Roll Queen

She said she wanted to be part of the band
she said she wanted to be part of the band
I said “okay babes are you any good with your hands.”

She said she wanted to be a Rock ‘n Roll Queen
she said she wanted to be a part of the scene
I said “ I know what you mean they’re far ‘n few between.

Rock - Rock - Rock - Rock ‘n Roll.

She said “there’s a bee in my bonnet would you like to pluck it?”
She said “there’s a bee in my bonnet Daddy would you
like to pluck it?”
I said “ Thanks Babes for letting me get my kicks.”

She said she wanted to be a Rock ‘n Roll Queen
she said she wanted to be a part of the scene
I said “I know what you mean they’re far ‘n few between.”
Rock - Rock - Rock - Rock ‘n Roll
Rock - Rock - Rock - Rock ‘n Roll.

"Well you can build a wall all around me
I'll just break it down, you won't stop me
No no... I'll go where ever I please.

I travel my own road, write my story
I know it pains you so, to see me free
No no... I'll go where ever I please

The room was dark and cold, the mood somber, you wonder
Well I've seen the light, you're still blind, and still you wonder...

Rules and regulations, your story
Well I ain't breaking the law, but now I'm free
No no... I'll go where ever I please

The room was dark and cold, the mood somber, you wonder
Well I've seen the light, you're still blind, and still you wonder...

There's a freeway that leads your way
Think I'll drive past it, leave the memories behind
'Cause honey, I'd be a fool again to exit your way

The room was dark and cold, the mood somber, you wonder
Well I've seen the light, you're still blind, and still you wonder...

UP TO THEE HILLS

Weeping Raindrops

The Good with the Bad

There's a rust on the plow
But the dirt still turns
There's a blight on the trees
But the wood still burns
There's a mark on my heart
From when you left that day
But you're here standing with me
Now anyway

I take the good with the bad
'Cause I'm tired of trying to fix everything.

I got a headlight out
But the other one shines
I got ten miles of gas
But I only need nine
Sirens on the road
but they go they other way
There's a blood red moon
Before the break of day.

I take the good with the bad
'Cause I'm tired of trying to fix everything

I see the sun shine
through a broken window
I'm drinking moonshine
By the walls of Jericho
They call the wild card
of a one eyed queen
I got two nines and a suicide king

I take the good with the bad
'Cause I'm tired of trying to fix everything

Hog Iron has really taken a new form where Kev Sumner (Dunlooser) and I have taken the reigns and kept the torch burning. This one features instrumentation by me (Dave) with Kev providing the lyrics and vocals. Hope y'all dig it!

I've always felt Eugenia has such a unique voice; I wanted to write something original for her. I was thrilled with the results!

Milana very kindly added to this, and literally brought it all to another level..incredible talent; It is humbling. 

I want to thank Arty for his expertise with the mixing. Special thanks to Stella for her support.

Resting My Head

I rested my head on 
Your piano as you played 
Lost in your music 
And the harmonies you made

I felt each stoke of the keys 
Every subtle touch 
It always ended too soon 
The emotions were too much

We were at different places 
At different times 
Grappling with our own demons 
Never seeing the signs

You made my world disappear 
With music strong and clear 
Matching the vibration of my soul 
My troubled mind consoled

Resting My Head (Eugenia, Milana, and Jim)

Politician

I love the blues and became determined to learn to play when I found my beautiful Eastman archtop guitar up for sale, second hand for a bargain price, in Jan 2012. As soon as I touched it I fell in love.

I first tried playing guitar several decades ago: with unrealistic teenaged enthusiasm I fully expected to sound like Hendrix within a month or two while practising just thirty minutes a week. I gave up when I still struggled to tune my guitar and the cowboy chords I'd learnt sounded really rough when I literally banged on them. Girls were much more interesting.

In my late thirties I had a mid-life crisis(!), so I  bought a US Strat and a Gibson LP Pro, determined to learn to be an ageing 'bedroom rock star'. I was working long and hard hours so only practised on odd weekends, always wondering why following tab and listening to CD lessons was not working. I decided I was tone deaf and incompetent, so yet again, I gave up, still unable to master bar chords, convinced I would never be able to play.

As an early retiree, I decided to give it a final attempt when I found my black beauty: the first few years were a journey of discovery, discipline and sore fingers. I practised most days (except when arthritis in my joints and a trapped nerve in my shoulder 'froze' my fretting pinkie and sent my thumb totally numb). Back then, I trawled YouTube and bought a DVD course of lessons, and plugged away. It was worth it as I really enjoyed the fairly limited range of things I could play.

When I first arrived on Soundcloud, I was not expecting to find such a talented and helpful community. I just wanted to upload a jam track for my friends to hear, then I found the amazing wealth of creativity here. 

Sadly, my frozen shoulder, trapped nerve and related problems have pretty much stopped my guitar ambitions since 2016.

However, I still have a blast exploring all the fabulous originals and covers so many relatively unknown, but hugely talented, musicians have conjured up for the SC community. In my first five weeks on here I downloaded c100 tracks and 'liked' hundreds more, and since then I have created many playlists that I regularly listen to depending on my mood...

Simon Cowell and his ilk (overpaid gatekeepers/brand creators/ubercapitalists) have, until now, throttled mass talent for the sake of creating a relative handful of extremely wealthy 'cash cow' celebs.

Who needs these supposedly 'professional talent spotters' and their artificially enhanced 'celebrities'? The internet rocks!

NB If you too suffer from joint pain, RSI or trapped nerves I highly recommend this free DIY pain relief site: it is not just for guitar related injuries but pain anywhere in the body pretty much, and the techniques used really do work - although for me, they provide just temporary relief. Good luck!
