No claims of being a performer. I just give it what little I've taught myself musically by songwriting. Recorded by mic, straight to computer as sound on sound.
Born at an early age, I was just a kid at the time....from there memory escapes me, until 2000 or 2001 when I decided to teach myself guitar. In order to teach myself guitar, I took to writing songs. From there, I added bass and occasionally, harmonica and a small touch of electric guitar. Not much of a performer, but I love to experiment writing songs. So, it's nine or ten years into it so far....and I've only scratched the surface with tons to learn. Maybe, you'll find something you like on the nearly three pages, I've loaded so far....Comments are welcome, I don't expect all comments to be favorable, but objectively constructive. I make no claims of being a performer....I just give it my best with what little that I've taught myself both musically and in songwriting. All songs are either written, played and sang by myself or my attempt at covering a song by my favorite artists.

Lyrics
RAMBLIN' MAN Written & Recorded by: Hank Williams I can Am settle dow-own and be doin' just fine Till I E7 hear an old train rollin' down the Am line Then I hurry strai-aight home and pack And if I E7 didn't go, I believe I'd blow my Am stack I love you ba-aby, but you gotta understand When the E7 Lord made me He made a Ramblin' Am Man. Some folks might sa-ay that I'm no good That I wouldn't settle down if I could But when that open ro-oad starts to callin' me There's somethin' o'er the hill that I gotta see Sometimes it's har-rd but you gotta understand When the Lord made me, He made a Ra-amblin' Man. I love to see the tow-owns a-passin' by And to ride these rails 'neath God's blue sky Let me travel this la-and from the mountains to the sea 'Cause that's the life I believe He meant for me And when I'm go-one and at my grave you stand Just say God's called home your Ra-amblin' Man.

Well you produced a classic country song. Riding on a horse or the midnight train -lonesome.. And your voice is so impressive -perfect made for this kind of traditional country music. You are a minimalist and thats extremely difficult - but you produce a distinctive song . Like to sit in a first row when you on stage.... Erik

Wade channels Hank Williams , and he connected!!!!!!!!!! You know we love Hank and who wouldn't...this classic is like a snapshot of the life he led. What a legend , and he would be proud of this complimentary version you have skillfully crafted! You can tell when an artist is honoring a song by just listening for the heart and soul he pours out. We were listening and we heard it...sincerity rings out from start to finish. Done stylishly an acoustic gem that moves with the panning of the vocals , that made you feel the movement just as you were rambling like Hank was!!!!! Guitar and bass were in great form bring tha country and western flavor to tantalize our tastebuds :) :) Superb vocals and a dynamic mix brings this baby home!!!!!! We hope everyone takes the time to enjoy this wonderful production. You nailed it ~Wade~ perfect 10!!!!!!!!!!!! And a 3 sided pick fling , with a finger pick on the thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!! Peace LL&P ~J&C~ over & Out ~Taders~
