This is so, so, so good, mate! You're quite an inspiration!

when I was 8 years old my uncle gave me an old beat up guitar with 4 string and I learned how to tune it with in a chord. it was the greatest gift that anyone ever gave me..46 years later I owe my sanity to my late great uncle buck..

We Can't get enough of Willy " The Bull" Taylor

The type of tunes i love traveling with, great tunes!

Your playing and vocals are so cool. How do you get such a good and natural recording!

My cover of 'Closer Tonight' by Grant-Lee Phillips.
Recorded on 9/13/2025, in one take with minimal post-processing.

It brings out the nervousness in me
This talk of the future
And all of it moving at light speed
Too much to devour

Well, pray that we make it in one piece
But who are we fooling?
A fire that keeps a nation warm
Or it's undoing?

Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah

And we are closer tonight
Closer than ever
We are closer tonight
The touch of a finger

And arrows that fly across the sea
Eyeing the hour
A magic that we don't dare repeat
The trick of unraveling

Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah

And driverless cars on market street
Around every corner
But what is to stop us before
We turn on each other

Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah

We are closer tonight
Closer than ever
We are closer tonight
The touch of a finger

We are closer tonight
Closer than ever
We are closer tonight
Closer than ever

We are closer tonight
The touch of a finger
We are closer tonight
Closer to Heaven
