Sing for the Morning Sing for the Morning
I wrote this song in January of 1986 but never notated or recorded it. Thanks to Band in a Box and TC Helicon's harmonization tools for the backing and processing help - much faster than organizing a real band. Someday - real instrumentation!
I Can't Dance 'Cause I Didn't Wear My Boots I Can't Dance 'Cause I Didn't Wear My Boots
This is a little novelty tune. I can hear it being played live with audience participation and a twist at the end bringing in the girls with boots to sing a variations with some patter listing all of the dances that are possible for boot wearers.
