Broken, Too Broken, Too
acoustic guitar, vocals; A song about troubled people. (AYoS 2008-03-27)
If They Could Put You in Jail for Dreaming If They Could Put You in Jail for Dreaming
As lazy as a jailhouse nap... as wistful as a parting kiss on visiting day. And just about as pathetic...
Pretty Little Head Pretty Little Head
Vocal and guitar; the guitar part is a sort of an unconscious tribute to Brit folk guitar great John Renbourn. (Best known as one of the two guitarists in UK jazz-folk outfit, Pentangle.) (AYoS 2006-10-29)
Too Much Trouble Christine Too Much Trouble Christine
Mandolins, acoustic guitar, and the sound of standup bass belie the fact that this song evolved from a three chord (actually four but, you know, terms of art and all that) punkish rocker. Reached # 18 SC Alt-Country chart under one blue nine.
A Girl Named October (acoustic) A Girl Named October (acoustic)
An acoustic version of the ballad. (Part of my podcast project 'A Year of Songs.' (www.AYearOfSongs.org) Actually the very first song of the entire project.
Kingdom of Fools (acoustic) Kingdom of Fools (acoustic)
Solo acoustic guitar and vocal recorded during practice for a benefit for storm victims. (Part of OBN mastermind TK Major's podcast project 'A Year of Songs.' (www.AYearOfSongs.org)
Losing Lisa Losing Lisa
Some hard rocking roots rock with my buddy, Caz Camberline smokin' away on lead guitars.
All I Need Is the Sun (Acoustic) All I Need Is the Sun (Acoustic)
Acoustic guitar and vocal about a guy who used to be somebody once. Or so he says. A highly informal solo recording from my www.AYearOfSongs.org blog/podcast.
She'd Be Mine She'd Be Mine
Vocal and guitar with additional guitar. A gentle song about the sadness of being wised up. (AYoS 2006-03-02)
This Used to Be America This Used to Be America
A little protest song about how far astray the USA has gone... This track reached # 23 on the SC Other Alternative charts under my band name, one blue nine.
I Just Started to Cry I Just Started to Cry
'This song started out as a sort of alt-country/bluegrass thing in my mind back in '91 when I wrote it, but this version was a goof, sort of acoustic funk. Kinda sloppy acoustic funk.' -TK (AYoS 2006-08-15)
This Perfect Day (acoustic) This Perfect Day (acoustic)
A quickie recording from my blog, A Year of Songs... kinda pitchy now that I hear it in the light of day. Ah well...
