I think you taught it what it needed to learn.

Zurf - incredible - that was awesome ( even the la de das! ) !   You have a great voice man - I am so jealous.  One of my favorite songs - you did it proud!

soooo....  I was browsing and found this awesome page
https://www.pinterest.com/pin/272749321154578781/ 

Got thinking about all of those on the page...and just starting writing down some ideas.... which then led to this.

TF

I was always wondering where the term " Progressive Rock"  comes from ?  Is there a particular progression through the songs or something?

While I am not the biggest fan of it - I do appreciate the terrific abilities of the performers you present each week.
Thanks for taking the time to do so.
While in college I liked the group Uriah Heep that you showcased a couple of post ago.

My daughter's boyfriend plays in a duo - it's called Ridgeline.   They play pretty much every weekend.
I have no idea how they remember all the words and all the chords - no lyric sheets or electronic screens - just good ol' memory. I am always amazed each time I hear them
(they have a few  songs on you tube.)

I know many of you Chordians gig a lot..... you have my total admiration -    I am amazed at real musicians like yourselves.
Hopefully one day I will make a Chordie get together and get to play with some of you.( certainly not the vocals  smile  )

anyway - Kudos to all of you performers out there
it is something special to be able to do so !

UJB  and Jan
Thanks for your kind words.

Yes I took mine down because I am at the soundcloud limit.  I couldn't load Phill's version without taking something down- it was an obvious choice to eliminate mine. 
(Trust me, it saved your ears some anguish smile

I love having the people on Chordie cover my songs because there is so much talent here - UJB - I d'  love to have you cover one - you are an excellent musician as well.
Phill is uniquely talented. I never even have to tell him how I think it goes - he and I are somehow almost always on the same page.
Although I have never personally met him, (although we do connect through e-mail )  it's like he and I are old buddies from way back. smile
Thanks again,
Jim

Phill was so kind as to record my song. 

I loved it - made a video to go along.

Hope you like it too.

This is a link to my recording of the song Teardrops Falling In The Rain on soundcloud that I did this afternoon during the thunderstorm.
I stink at singing and playing but the song seems so relevant (at least to me) as to what is going on in the world and some personal experiences here on Chordie.
It'll have to do until a better version of it gets done.

Hope you find it meaningful ....

I am so sad to hear of this.
Two wonderful people such as yourself deserve so much better in this world.
46 is way too young to pass.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family

That one is super cool and funny as heck - the video makes it even funnier..  Ray Stevens had an unbelievably sharp wit.

Ray Stevens was always one of my faves- mostly because of his comedic approach.  He has incredible vocal abilities - yet makes you smile as you listen to his songs.

Thanks for sharing.

Jim

hilarious

Jan

I think with your voice it would be a great match - you should do it

Thank you guys !

here is a link to it in chordie format

so I was just messing around waiting for my daughter to come home today and thought I would check out Sunday Morning coming down on youtube

I came across this ----  and got a great education in songwriting history.
for instance.....
Never knew who Sue Brewer was - now I do. smile
Did not know what the boar's nest was  - now I do.
Never knew how these people all hung out as young struggling stars - now I do.
Never knew Willie Nelson was such an awesome guitar player - do now !

There is a series of 5 of these that all play one after another.  I totally recommend watching it - it is so intersting.

# 1 does have Sunday Morning Coming Down  in it.

hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
