| Folk-I Used to have a lady lover |    |
The last but one of my 15 year old recordings.
It's the only recording I have so please excuse the fact that it was not the best take, from my point of view as the one who wrote and sung it.
Jim played it, as he did for all this lot of 'Folk' songs that I have posted, and what a bloody good job he did of it too!
If anybody wants the lyrics up, I'll post.
Otherwise listen and tell me what you think !
Cheers

Guys, much appreciated, glad you like.
If anything it's my favorite song too M, it certainly means the most to me.
It's just a shame it's the only recording I have, I just about dont hit bum notes in a few places !!
aetheris : I think this was recorded on a digital recorder then bounced on to cassette which is where I recorded it from. I'm now 41 with a family , I started writing when I was 19 so having recorded this 15 years ago is not so strange !
That brings me nicely to my next sentence ; the basic chords for this song are G A C G chorus A C G , and thats it !
Jim just happens to be a very special guitar player, and makes it sound excellent.
But if someone wants to try their hand at the music I'll definitely re-record the vocal.

song is really catchy for sure. A few pitchy spots, breathing technique can help that.
guitar is really tight. vocal tone is really good!!! nicely done !!

F***ing great man!
Do you still have that Robert Plant voice?
At the beginning it reminded me of Here I go Again but as your voice came in turned totally into Zeppelin sound, specially like Rumble On. Actually, if you get a band this could sound really Zeppelin with some rock guitars in the chorus and stuff.
Amazing dude. Congratulations.

PS: Post lyrics please so I can sing it.

O yes the lyrics......
I used to have a lady lover
I used to have a lady lover
In New Orleans
She was like no other
She was all of my dreams
I used to sing her love songs
Serenades and so-longs
But now, OooOoo some how
I just sing about what it all means
She no longer moves my hart
She now occupies my time
She's no longer made of magic
She now possesses the key the words define
I used to have a lady lover
Down old Chicago way
She was like no other
She was all my time of day
We used to walk together
Talk in tongs and whisperings of forever
But now OooOoo some how
She takes more to the sense the world fools play
I said she now moves my hart
Yes she no longer occupies, its now my time
She is now made of magic
She no longer possesses, the key, the key, the key, the words define
Her love
Her love
Her Love

Great stuff... you're one of those guys who is a true rock artist in heart and soul, your music truly shines like classics even at hearing them for the first time.
True, there is the production thing... But it's all about the essence. Your lyrics are great as always and you're a very good vocalist aswell. All hats off and praise for that.
So keep at it...

PX : "you're one of those guys who is a true rock artist in heart and soul" Ooo! I like that one !!! 
Cheers PX.
As for 'keeping at it' I probably will till the day I die.
My ideas of Fame and Rock and Roll remain the same but the true Music and Word of life are in constant movement, and for as long as I can I'll be on 'em!

Firstly I love the vocals. Really reminds me of Robert Plant on Going to California. The lyrics are nice, they've got a good flow, but I think the music could use some work. Just something to keep it interesting, more instruments, a bridge, harmony, something..... the verses are long and drone on a bit and the melody at the chorus doesn't change enough. Good work so far, I think there's good potential here for more.
Well, I know that I've listened to this one before because I was really taken by the vocal delivery, which is just excellent!
Can't understand why I've not commented before though.
This song is fabulous - I still think the vocal delivery is excellent, but the whole mood of the song is truly captivating. The guitar playing is great, and as full of emotion as the vocals.
Good mix, effects are spot on, recording pretty damn awesome too (ok, I hear the background noise, but it doesn't spoil it in any way)
All in all a thoroughly enjoyable listen.

one of the best I've heard , and not just on here (the amp). I love the guitar and vocal work, some of the vocal head voice breaks, gives this great feel (4:36 to 4:38). I also agree that this has a Robert Plant feel to it. imho it works like this , but I also hear it going into a great production piece towards the end , with big strings and full band kicking in. It is great just like it is though. top vote from me just cause of the feel I got from it (hard to do I'm jaded lol) . Thanks for posting this one.
