Hey, Mo'
I forgot to mention that I did learn a little guitar while in the USAF. One of my squaddies taught me barre chords to the tune of Frijid Pink's "Venus", remember that one?
Sadly until I heard he didn't make it out of Nam, I kept trying to find him. Charlie's on that big black wall now .
You're a great performer of your stuff. Make me a cd, autograph it and send it to me.
I might need to make some money on eBay one day.

Bill im not sure what scrap CD,s are selling for these days I wouldn't plan a retirement around it , sorry about your buddy not making it out.

mojo01...There is a another song you have on soundcloud that got to me. "Johnny" is a great piece of work. You have a talent I wish I shared.
a few friends and i started a non profit to help wounded veterans , we set up camping and hunting trips here locally in east Texas. when Cecil got wacked and they started writing songs for him it set me to thinking and Johnny was result( no I am not defending the dentist for killing a lion in a canned hunt) I am planning on playing that song at our next event and I am wondering how the veterans will like it.

I love the way people are having a go at your lyrics. I would like to see a International movement formed called
If Sunshine Were Mine. With all sorts of musicians giving their take on your lyrics to that song and putting them up on soundcloud. I have put my version up on soundcloud under Peatle Jville which I think is not that good but the best I could do so at the moment I place myself at third place getter.
So far three countries have submitted I would like to hear more from every where. Mo and Phill love your versions.
I hope more New Zealanders would give it ago as the Northern Hemisphere has got the lead at the moment.

do you have string your guitar upside down to play down there?

Re: whatmakes a hit? (16 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I had this discussion with my guitar playing buddy tonight, he goes with the catchy tune and hook theory, but I think funsters point has a lot of merit. I pointed out that any artist with a following could take a song that he or I wrote and make a hit with it. for instanced jimmy buffet could record a song from chordie and parrot heads would buy it just because jimmy recorded it. have you listened to country music lately? there are songs here ten times better than what's being passed as country music. because as funster points out they have the platform to sell it.
bottom line for me is I have zero musical training, no idea how a song should be structured other than what I have heard on the radio my whole life. so I write songs that I like and sound good to me. some with a hook some with out. and now my pickle jar is empty so until my next post
