Songs I helped write, one of which even has me playing the guitar!

John has been pushing for me to put the songs we’ve recorded up on Bandcamp. Today, feeling under the weather, I finally did it. Interested to know what people think.

“I think most serious and omnivorous readers are alike - intense in their dedication to the word, quiet-minded, but relieved and eagerly talkative when they meet other readers and kindred spirits. If you have gotten this far in this book, you are just such a singular person.”

  • “Ghost Train to the Eastern Star,” Paul Theroux, p. 453.

Interval exercises turn into a melody. Is a song far behind? The answer is: probably. I recorded the melody into my iPhone, but I probably won’t listen to it again for months. Which is a good thing, as I’ll be more objective about its possibilities.

I think I’ll blog about music for awhile, esp. my attempts to master the guitar. Thanks to http://yousaygoodbyeandisaycello.blogspot.com for the idea. Here’s my Strat, plus some interval exercises forced on me by my teacher/taskmaster, Tom.
