‘Sliver’ (cover) for Brandy
Sliver. Yeah, it is that time of year again. Round this time 20 or more years ago, I was at an outdoor festival called Culture Shock with my good friend Brandy. We had heard the news.
Try this Sucker Bluez (live), original
Try this Sucker Bluez (live) (lyrics) I’m down on myself So down on myself the load’s so hard the load’s so hard Lord, you know it hurts to be disturbed. I called the doctor and he called the shrink I said,’Man! what’s wrong?!’ He said,’Lemme Think.’ ‘Forgive Yourself. Forgive Yourself.’ I hurt like hell. I hurt like hell. Can’t you tell? Can’t you tell? I can’t forgive myself. Can’t forgive myself. I guess that’s my fate. I guess that’s my fate. I […]
Please Leave Me Be (original song)
Please Leave Me Be. (lyrics) Oh Leave Me Be. Oh Leave Me Be. I’m scared of the MAN, I’m scared he can: See where I scroll, Listen to my calls, for whatever he wants to know. Oh Leave Me Be.

Wake Up Lil’ Susie (cover)
Wake Up Lil’ Susie! Here is a bit of trivia. This song was actually banned in the United States in the 1950’s because it only insinuated that the characters in the song missed curfew as a result of falling asleep at a drive-in movie. Their parents and friends believed that they had gotten ‘horizontal’ ( had sex) in the car. Silliness, huh? Anyway, here is a bastardization of a classic song.
South Central Rain (cover)
South Central Rain. I was strongly influenced by the guitar player who helped pen the song. His name is Peter Buck. Happy to be able to do the song which in many ways was outright old folk style playing.
Best of You (cover)
Best of You. Doing songs written by Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters makes me feel like a complete GEEK and NERD.
Listen to the Tape! (original)
Listen to the Tape. (lyrics) I’m tired. I’m angry. I’m quietly mad. I’m scared on cue. It won’t hurt to listen to the tape of your voice. But I heard the emotions rushing back, the emotions rushing back. I’m tired. I’m angry. I’m quietly mad. I’m scared on cue. It won’t hurt to listen to the tape of your voice. But I FELT the EMOTIONS SURGING BACK FELT THE EMOTIONS SURGING BACK! You’re lucky to have gotten, You’re damn lucky to have […]
You Can’t Do That (cover)
You Can’t Do That! Happy Rabid Easter Bunny Day!
Why Don’t We Do It in the Road? (cover)
Why Don’t We Do It in the Road? Is this a rhetorical question? ???????? 🙂
Sergeant Major (cover)
Sergeant Major. I think song is about the music industry. Or an idiotic manager.
True (cover)
True. ‘and if I had a choice, I’d take the voice I got because it was hard to find,’ ‘you know I’ve come too far to end up right back where I started.’
