My Daughter Emma Jewels song. Taylor and Emma make great music together and have been performing for over 6 years together..  they have managed life, loss, parenthood and love. This new track speaks to their ongoing support for one another. 

just goofing off on the new nylon guitar

this song is a 90's classic from SNL - Chris Farley steals the show with his infamous performance of our childhood lunchlady.... hard to play and sing the lyrics and not laugh eveytime . . . . 

i only learned this one today and this was actually the 3rd time i played it.... cool song . .  remember dad playing this one when i was a kid. (many of these songs Dad sang when I was growing up honestly).

Great song from the one and only John Lennon. cool to play on the nylon string guitar.

the Late Charlie Robison tune . . .  fun to play this one . . .  several of his songs have that capo on the 4th.

Yup, that old dusty jams tho.... Commodores . . again . . . this one is fun to play and sing! did Easy a while back on here . . . but learned and played  it the Faith No more way....

That Commodores classic,i do know some of the piano version but the TABS are under Faith No more on the APP. what the hell . . . .  Russell ---

they played this so damn much on the radio i made myself learn it because it was in my head . . . "MY TABS APP" has all these songs so you just following alone with them.... Every song in this playlist is only off the phone recorder . . .  maybe i'll get that little zoom thing that plugs into the phone.... mixed this some . . . see if you can tell . . .  03/02/24 Russell

Huge Seven Mary 3 Fan. Actually met them when i was working for Mix 94.7 in Austin at an event the station held. While the band "Live" was playing on stage Jason Ross came over to the station VIP area and hung out had a beer, invited my Girlfriend and I to go party with them later at a club (whatever that venue that used to be Pearls Oyster Bar was) this was in 2001  - Pearls closed in like 1996 ...

Always loved this simple Willy Nelson track. No Harmonica on this one sadly . . . . :)

yup that old steve miller song . . .

always liked this album . . . thought it be cool to learn a few of these.... backtrack is subtle in the begining and end only . . . . RD

Ya , I had to Cover that Song . . . . the 50th Track!!

Dad does this song, and I wanted to  learn it. Perhaps we can perform it together soon. :) russ

funny how 24 years weighs on a man at 51 . . . i was 27 in 1999. blessed. Lyrics Ring them bells ye heathen from the city that dreams Ring them bells from the sanctuaries cross the valleys and streams For they're deep and they're wide And the world is on its side And time is running backwards And so is the bride Ring them bells Saint Peter where the four winds blow Ring them bells with an iron han...

seems like this song was on 1883 or Yellowstone.....  The dark and distant drumming  The pounding of the hooves  The silence of everything that moves  Late at night you'll see them  Decked out in shiny jewels  The coming of the caravan of fools    Like the wings of a dove  The waiter's white glove  Seems to shimmer by the light of the pool  Some dull, blinding winner  When you can't stand to lose...

just thought I'd do this one since its a campfire favorite.

ya that 1986 pink floyd song - - Hahaha loved this album too - - -

 Pack up all your dishes.   Make note of all good wishes.   Say goodbye to the landlord for me.   That son of a bitch has always bored me.     Throw out them LA papers   And that moldy box of vanilla wafers.   Adios to all this concrete.   Gonna get me some dirt road back street     [Chorus]  If I can just get off of this LA freeway   Without getting killed or caught   I'd be down that road in a c...

 The world was on fire and no one could save me but you  It's strange what desire will make foolish people do  I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you  And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you    No, I don't wanna fall in love (this world is only gonna break your heart)  No, I don't wanna fall in love (this world is only gonna break your heart)  With you  With you   (This world...

After watching "Jarhead" this song comes on at the end of the film. I played it years ago but decided to try it again... i probably could have done better but it was late and I just pushed on . . . . emotional tune..... Support our Veterans guys.... God Bless them!

 Bury me softly in this womb  I give this part of me for you  Sand rains down and here I sit  Holding rare flowers  In a tomb...in bloom    Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved  See my heart I decorate it like a grave  You don't understand who they   Thought I was supposed to be  Look at me now a man  Who won't let himself be    Down in a hole, feeling so small  Down in a hole, losing...
