Description : I recently lost my dog of 13 years, "Lucy". I wrote this song as a tribute to her and to all of our family members with 4 legs and waggy tails. Doing this song has helped my heart to heal immensely. I hope you enjoy it.
I am performing all except for drums which I wrote in MIDI.

Danke,
TY buddy.
Yes pets sure do have a way of working their way into your heart. They are always there for us. Lucy used to curl up at my feet when I was in my studio and when i was performing this song, out of habit I would look for her and then remember she was gone.
I am not ashamed to admit that I shed many tears in the studio doing this song and I think my raw emotion showed through in the recording.
Some people run for a bottle when they are sad....I run for my guitar lol...always have.

Sorry to hear about your dog. My friend Jim and his wife just lost one of their dogs recently. It's great to see how much pets mean to their owners.

A tribute song to your dog, straight from the heart!

Time for a......puppy!

Wayne,
Good to see you old fried and TYVM.
Yes pets become surrogate children to their owners.
As far as getting a puppy, we have worked with an animal rescue in the area for 7 years and a mixed 3 yr old dog we have fostered (her name is Panda because of her black and white markings) will be staying with us permanently. She has been a handful and is a little like TNT mixed with enriched uranium lol...she's nuts and strong but only about 18" tall. But she has a heart of gold and loves me/obsessed with me. She's home now.
Mark.

Jamid,
TY.
I considered writing a sad song but then I would have never been able to listen to it; I decided to make a song that would celebrate our lives together.

Enjoy your dog and get lots of pics.
We had 3 months to say goodbye to my old girl when we found out she had cancer. We spoiled her rotten.

Description : It was a long winter here, at Dartmoor. 4 Month of continued rain and damp. And suddenly (Drummroll), the sun came back. That did remind me of a collaboration with Silver Bella and her Acapella "Keep the Faith" from last year. A positive song which could have the potential to make a difference to the day. Thanks SB :-)

Description : This is my first serious attempt at a country song.
I am playing all instruments except for the drums....they are MIDI.
The song allowed me the opportunity to try my son-in-laws 1981 Gibson J40 acoustic, my new Dean Resonator Guitar and my new harmonica.
I hope you enjoy.
