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

This is great man... nice singing and guitar playing.  I like the recording too.  I'm amazed you did it 15 years ago! The sound is really warm.

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.

A very fluid summer breeze for my ears... quite lovely indeed...
I've often said that simple music is relative when a voice can carry the listener so...
Great one Kings!



Hao!

song is really catchy for sure. A few pitchy spots, breathing technique can help that.

lovely man! you're voice reminds me of Robert Plant; which is a big compliment in my book. The song is simple and unclutttered, but very listenable and therefore brilliant.... i hope you're still writing songs like this

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.

Iszil : Well I still have the same voice, and a little more control over it too these days.

SirB : Hmm! It's been a long time since I was inspired / felt the need to write anything like this.
Can I write something like this again? Yes if I wanted to. Will I write something like this again? Yes If it wants me to!!! 

ALB : Thanks for listening and for the comment, and a warm welcome to you too.

Jack : Cheers dude , put so nicely too !

It means so much when you guys comment , so thank you very much for doing so.

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

I used to have a lady lover

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...
