How It's Done In Memphis


Recommended Posts

Thank you! You brought this song to life and it sounds great. And I should point out that Bob came up with the chorus and gave the song something it was sorely missing.

It has been fun working (virtually) with Bob. He has a great musical sense and thinks of things and riffs that never would have occurred to me. The guy is a gem!

David, thanks..... but not true..... the bones of the songs we've done are all yours.

I'm ready for some more, if you send them!

Nice Collaboration! Good job to both of you!

Lars, I still have 2 songs David sent me..... working on one called "Belle Ayr"..... it'd be easy except I don't want it to sound like a precious song we've done.

I expect David is the kind of guy who writes songs for things he happens across in life....so he's probably got a hundred of 'em!

You’re too kind. Been going through my songs trying to figure out which ones are worth passing along and which ones are worth me continuing to perform. I’m certainly not a commercial songwriter but a lot of my songs just don’t seem to attract much attention. I’ll play out and people say nice things, but it’s at a point where the hassle is outweighing the return. I may just wind up playing down at the local pub’s open mic, except we don’t have a pub in our neighborhood….

David, audiences like “hooks”.    And they like authentic songs.   
I’ve taken “Belle Ayr”in a totally different direction,  (musically…the words are superb!).

I’ll send you a down & dirty video, hopefully, late next week……going away to Monterey for a few days.    There are still some rough corners to smooth out.   
Don’t be discouraged …..you’re a wonderful songwriter.
