mama mia ... you absolutely blow me away - great stuff. "storms in may" and "untamed tune" were great but your "blowing blood-red sunset" was cinematic - really, very good. please invest in a video camera and post your music to youtube - i honestly don't know if video will enhance your presentation (you may look like a troll ...) but i'm curious and your music is absolutely first class - mega complimenti - bill
Thanks, Bill. A bit more stuff, mainly fiddle tunes, on my fiddlehangoutpage: http://www.fiddlehangout.com/myhangout/home.asp?id=2907 I need to invest in a vid camera and a good mic. One day... I'll post the words to these tomorrow. Later, David Mehaffey
Here are the words to the above song: Shadows long On this long day gone Leaves through the fields They keep blowing Papers fly From the kid walking by And cover the ground Like it’s been snowing The prairie winds blast Straight out of the west And they chill to the bone Winter ain’t done yet Keep us in check Won’t let us forget On this blowing blood red sunset Flag stands straight At the end of his long day Like he’s proud of the job That they pay him Cloudless sky Like it’s telling a lie That spring is close by Just have faith then The prairie winds blast Straight out of the west And they chill to the bone Winter ain’t done yet Keep us in check Will we pass the test On this blowing blood red sunset This song's referring to the late springs that tend to happen here in the midwest compared to the early, warm ones of my upbringing in Alabama.
that's excellent - bravo.
