    "Natalie" my original I thought I'd at least try out here, for what it's worth ha!

    Hi Tomco! Very nice of you to share and take the time with me! I like your experiences and how it's more like the pleasure homones I didn't think of, the dopemine, seritonin I think some are called. Maybe I was feeling stressful and the release brought about a dopemine response and I lost track...

    "Natalie" my original I thought I'd at least try out here, for what it's worth ha!

    Hi Tomco! It's funny I didn't come back here and it seems for 10 days. In a way it was something subconscious, like I was going to be paid to play on 9-7-23 at a fairly popular coffeehouse and hosted by a successful musician who was very complimentary of my music in the past. He has a second...

    Wow Tomco! You even came here too plus the likes and subscribe at YouTube, thanks! That's a real compliment as you really know public performance on a pro level playing around LA and a lot of areas! Your rendition of "California Dreamin'" I mean you have your own style, your own fingerprint! I...

    Hi Chili! Very nice of you to take the time and thanks for your encouragement. I played at home all of my life then recently once I moved back to The Cities I played open mics and gradually over time I heard Nick Drake mentioned and counted six times now separate people mentioning him to me...

    Hi Spantini! I know they say the 3 minute rule for song length and wise advice. I did that at first with my covers "Both Sides Now", and "Massachusetts" and my original "Johanna" although a bit over three, and with my 4 minute version of "Tambourine Rain". Like your friend, my numbers are very...

    Hi Papanate! Thanks for taking the time to listen and your feedback! You mean the picture of a girl skating on a lake doesn't fit my song? It's not by Neil Young as it is my own original song. I decided to play the harmonica for variety in the song.

    Having an Objective View of Your Abilities

    Hi Supercreep! Your post here is quite a few years old so maybe you won't see this. You sound like a very experienced musician who could really give good feedback. I'm a wannabe trying to see if my music is "worth it" to others besides myself and started a YouTube channel. I put one of my songs...

    Road To Berlin / original solo acoustic guitar song

    Wow! You are an orchestra! This is so expressive it carries a kind of inspiration to travel somewhere I've never been! You're some kind of genius. What song did that orchestra back you up on? I'd like to listen to that too and more as I see you are so prolific with your originals and covers...

    PS I forgot to say... if you like it give a thumbs up and a subscribe too as then YouTube puts my music with my channel out to more people. Thanks!

    Hi! You can be frank with me if you see any areas that would drive people away as my numbers are so low on YouTube. I thought too I should at least show this to others as the Zen saying is: "Birds don't sing in caves." so I better do something and so nice others have had the patience to listen...

    "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" Fingerstyle arrangement

    As usual you come out of nowhere then everywhere, fly me to a place I didn't expect like some magic place in the sun where every man's dream can only come true! Thank you for another masterpiece! George is smiling down!

    What's goin' on with everybody

    Hi! I'm only amateur but that too is great as you adapt so well and all by ear! You have an intuitive sense of music!

    What's goin' on with everybody

    Hi! Thanks for your wise advice and taking the time! I meant that that seasoned musician said in standard tuning he can play in any key and not need a capo because he plays bar chords and other chords and without hesitation he can play in any key to any song, amazing to me! He doesn't have to...

    What's goin' on with everybody

    I was on a walk, though months ago, last winter, and saw a sign on someone's front porch, "Don't give up!" and thought about how too often that happens with me in life. I have an offer to perform, the host paying $20 plus tips for forty minutes of music before an evening of a quite popular open...

    Having an Objective View of Your Abilities

    Hi Supercreep and All! I'm certainly not one to take my comments all that seriously as I am an unknown wannabe in the masses. I like too what gecko zzed said; "One of the confounding factors is that it is your brain and imagination that tells you what you are hearing, not your ears . . ...
