A couple of week ago martind28 sent me his latest CD "Back to the keys" and since then I have also taken a harder listen to his earlier CD "The blues leave slow"

I've been listening to both of these disks for the last couple week and if any of you get the chance have him send you a copy. Both are filled with great tunes. He's a solid songwriter and has outstanding musicians working with him...people like Jimmy Hall. I don't even think he tells too many here about his talent. Solid songs, solid arrangements and strong musicians are displayed on both CD's...Great work my friend!!!

Thanks for the tip. Always enjoy hearing new talent. 

Someone recently turned me on to a young singer, guitarist and songwriter Molly Tuttle.

I think she only plays acoustic guitar but she is a real hot flat picker.

Thanks Goldtop for the kind words. I'll try to put up a few of the songs I wrote if anyone's interested in checking them out.

@martind28 definitely share some of your music (do you have a site?). Always great to see what everyone here is creating.

PCB - No, don't have a site. Really don't do much social media. I'll upload another 4 songs - a bit different genres / sound then the songs uploaded the other day. There are a mix of genres here.

Wonder what happened to him. He was a regular and I was looking forward to new music.

@cyclone88 I did hear from him through an email about a month ago. He sent me a couple tunes he was recording. We correspond about song writing and music theory. Love his stuff. I listen to his CD's when I'm in my home gym...which hasn't seen me lately as I'm waiting to have both my hips replaced and getting under a bar right now doesn't work...

He's very passionate about his music and I really enjoy when he sends me material. I don't put it up here because it's his and his decision to let other listen when he's ready to share.

@goldtop 

Sorry to hear about upcoming surgeries.

Thanks for the update. I enjoyed his music and agree he's passionate about it. Good to know he has an interest in music theory; most of my clients don't want to know! You're absolutely right not to pass on someone else's work w/o their permission. The site doesn't have as many regulars as it used to and I noticed that he disappeared during Covid.

Good luck w/your surgeries & rehab.

Hey Cyclone & Goldtop.

Thx for the comments.

Yes, as Goldtop said, I've been in touch with him periodically. He's great to share music with and for me to bounce music & theory questions off of. He's a great musician, really knows theory, & is always willing to help me out 'cause what I know about music is pretty much what my ear tells me, as I can't read music. But, I enjoy music bunches & enjoy dabbling in writing tunes. I just finished writing & recording 10 new ones, and we are currently mixing the tunes. I'll attach one now & a few others down the road when final mixes are finished.

 

Best to all you guys!
