Major Snagg is the invented name of the 'band' that perform all my own musical creations. (songs and instrumentals). I play guitars, bass, rudimentary keyboards, harmonica, and sing. Melody has always been important to me... lyrics and guitar solos have to say or communicate something. I create musical worlds that I hope that you dear listener, will also want to explore and live in for a few moments...or longer if you feel that way inclined.

Story behind the song
I remember liking this great song which on a Ry Cooder album that I heard at the time...1980s?
Lyrics
Alimoney Look at this one, look at that one Tell me do they look like me All my friends said, don't you worry Said they'll testify for me Well, I wonder which of my friends had it in for (c) me Alimony, alimony, alimony is killing me I don't want six extra children When ain't but two that look like me Please, have mercy, judge your honor Alimony is killing me Please, have mercy, judge your honor I'm as poor as I can be Ain't had money in my pockets Since way back in fifty three Can't you cut down all my payment ? Alimony is killing me Alimony, alimony, alimony is killing me Alimony, alimony, alimony is killing me

I was going for a cross between Ry Cooder and Robben Ford here. A kind of sophisticated 1980s, LA super session sound. I think I succeeded. I had great fun playing this.
