Zurf and Mojo you both have breathed life into songs about America with your excellent singing and guitar playing that has deliverd me in my imagination  to people and places the songs talk about.  Excellent covers Thank you.

I am enjoying your videos and photos. Hope you have many more.

It has been a great day for me getting to explore two great new artists. Zurf it also got me thinking back to when I was a five or six year old having lessons to help me speak English. The song Quick As dreams got me thinking of a short tongue twister I had to learn as a kid  about  race horses to improve my speach..
One-one was a race horse.
Two-two was one too.
One-one won one race.
Two-two won one too.

Mojo he is good.   First time I have heard of Robert earl Kean and I am enjoying his songs and clever lyrics.
I have just now been reading his lyrics and checking him out on youtube. Words of his like the ones he wrote down below paint a good  picture
He now has a new fan in me.
.
I don't wear no Stetson
But I'm willin' to bet son
That I'm as big a Texan as you are
There's a girl in her bare feet
Asleep on the back seat
And the trunk's full of Pearl beer and Lone Star

Great choice The Ministry Of Silly Walks  lives on.

I grew up listening to Hank Williams and people like that .  Way down here New Zealand when I hear a good song and see a clever video like yours about Nashville it makes me think about me as a young man thinking about going there in my imagination.

Zurf and Mekidsmom you had a chance to make a mess of the songs you did,  but instead you did them perfectly.
This morning listening  to you both made  me feel like I was in the same music  canoe  as you. I think you and  your  musical paddles are doing a better job than mine. Thank you for being  exceptional singers and players.
Zurf thank you for your kind words.

Great Idea Mekidsmom. Nice cover EB. I am not up to doing covers at the moment due to health issues.   I will do a cover of Bad Moon as soon as  I can. I will put up a Rolling Stone Cover now that I did a while back in the mean time. Hope that is ok, You Got The Silver a Rolling Stone song.

Beamer Junior great on drums you flow well together.

CurtRHCP your heading in the right direction. The band and you work well together it easier sometimes  to beat yourself up when you do something in public.Don't do that because you have the talent. I enjoyed your video. Muscians always notice little things  about themselves which most people in an audience don't notice. Man you did a excellent job. Nicely put together band you can go places as a group.   Keep that belief that you can do it and you will  acquire the capacity to do it even better then what your doing now.

I knew a guy who was constantly angry and found it hard to have meaningfull close relationships. He didnt have any close family and was fosterd out from birth and brought up mostly in institutions. I think his childhood where neglect and abandonment were the landscape of  his life made him into the adult he became.
He sadly took  his own life. It felt as though he never got to know  or feel how important his life  was to others.
Your poem asks a  question about children and babies that moves me. Great words Beamer.

I am not a good Guitar player and don't have my first guitar. I do find that with cheap guitars there is more of a need to play to its strong points.
Where as with a quality instrument its tone will sometimes make your playing sound better I play mostly cheap guitars and occasionally I will play a friends expensive guitar's to get another sound. Though at the moment I am hardly playing at all due to health issues. As a kid my Daddy alway said a good guitarplayer can get some sort of tune out any guitar. I will attach a link to a guy playing a shovel.
