Artist picture
Alternative country contemporary christian pop/rock
When I was 22 a young lawyer took one of my songs and put it on the ‘B' side of his recording of Ave Maria. He invited me to watch the recording session at Criteria in Miami, Florida. Since that moment all I have ever wanted was to have my music recorded by professional musicians and sung by established artists. This truly is a monumental task as I do not perform live so I have recorded my own material as a means to get exposure and as a way for artists to be able to judge the “cover” worth of my songs. I am looking for a publishing deal. Contact Info: Jim Blachura C/O Stablesongs Phone: 336 995 0813 E Mail: saintlymanmusic@yahoo.com Saintly Man Music /ASCAP

Story behind the song
the song I was working on to complete my 'Acoustic' CD (All Right) wasn't working out...so when I heard this little 12 bar blues on Plant's CD (66 to Tumbuktu) called Operator with Alexis Korner on guitar Steve Miller on piano and Robert on vocals and harmonica I thought I'd take the simple way out and imitate...(the sincerest form of flattery)
Lyrics
Sad Old Man / Blachura When the wind is blowing in the treetops makes it seem like it might be gonna rain And when the wind is howling in the treetops makes it seem like it might be gonna rain And when the wind is blowing in the treetops Make you sometimes feel it sounds just like the whistle of a train Well, just vote for me and you’ll see how easy it will be to change what you’re unhappy about Oh yeah, if you vote for me you’ll see how easy it will be to change what you’re unhappy about Well, the wind is blowing in the leaves Please, Lord, don’t let the trees all fall down on my house Well, listen to you, sad, old man, you couldn’t even if you can Well, just listen to you, you sad, old man you couldn’t even if you can Water cleanses, soothing salve heals, calms my head as it reels Takes away the pain ‘til it’s out of my hands
