This also rocks my world: 'Is Anyone Home?' has been included on another listener's Spotify playlist, amid songs by the likes of Joni Mitchell, Nina Simone and Aretha Franklin, baby! Check out 'Women Who Rock' here! https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7 JTPMFQbOIS0O6Hrb7vnqL

Hi Jamie,

Thanks for the GREAT "All-5's" review of my song, "Lonely Woman". Indeed, it is of the 60's and 70's vintage. I have had several people say they felt it was like listening to Led Zeppelin played by one-guy with a guitar. DOn't know about that.

Anyway, the version you heard was a "live version" recorded at Cowtown Ballroom in Kansas City, Missouri USA in 1971.

There is a cleaner studio version of "Lonely Woman" on my album, "Beetles Are Coming". SO, if you like this song, you will very much enjoy the whole album.

It is posted at my BJ site (As an MP3 file) or at my site (http://www.chetnichols.net 1 ) was HI-DEF WAV files.

If you do, let me know which songs you like.

Best,

Chet Nichols

Hi Chet. I was blown away by the song - and especially when I got to the end and found out when it was performed and by whom. No wonder it felt 'real', in all the best senses that applies to 'real music'. And I'm not surprised to learn it was a live take - the energy was unmistakable. Thanks for the info about your album and website - I'll definitely check those out and let you know my favourites. Stunning lyrics on Lonely Woman, btw. I just loved everything about it. So grateful to e-meet you here and to learn about you and your music, and lookingf forward to learning and hearing more. All the best, Jamie



Thank you for the nice words on "On Any Given LA Nite"! Very appreciated. Glad you like the simplicity. I would love every song to have a full production opportunity but it's all about the money to do so. Thank you so much!

Totally understand about budgets, Steve. The main thing is that this works so well just as it is. Excellent piece!

I can't even say enough about this (The Back Streets). Heard it only once, read the Song Description, and I was in tears (from someone who doesn't let them flow enough) and then teared my way through the lyrics. What an amazing job on this one!

Jeepers - thank you so, so much, Rena. This little song came out of personal loss, and because I choke in a studio setting, I just recorded it 'raw' in my living room one afternoon as a coping mechanism, really. It still needs polishing to my mind (but whose work doesn't to them?), but to have your response is... more reward than I could hope for. Thank you so much for taking the time to listen = and comment. All the best to you, Jamie

thank you Jamie for the kind review of Dark Forest Walk #2 (it's the chopped version of the orig Dark Forest Walk which you may also enjoy...all the best to you across the pond! Warren Hein



Jamie - I felt kind of funny saying what I said about the vocals on "Is Anyone Home" and debated whether I should say it and ultimately decided I should be honest. It's such a good song.

I listened to a few of your other songs and was touched by "The Back Streets". The lyrics are very powerful. A cousin I grew up with that was more like a brother died in the Lockerbie plane crash many years ago. For over a year I'd be walking wherever doing whatever I was doing and I'd see something that reminded me of him and I'd start crying. I wrote a song called "Too Soon"in remembrance of him.

Hi Marv, I really did appreciate your honesty - it's what I'm here for. I hadn't recorded in a studio for over 20 years when I did Is Anyone Home? and Don't Tell Me, and I was both terrified and exhausted, even if elated to be doing it again. So I do know exactly what you're saying.
Thank you so much for your comments about The Back Streets - I'd sorry for the reasons it touches you, but again, you're 'spot on' - I wrote that after losing my best friend after an awful illness, and years later I still don't know where to put myself at times. Ironically, I also knew two people on Pan Am 103 - not well, but I had interviewed them only a couple of weeks before for a magazine article: two young Americans, on their way home. I'm so sorry about your cousin.
I will definitely come back to your page to check out your music properly this weekend - am on a beast of a book project (editing) at the moment - but just wanted to say thank you so much again for listening and just taking the time to comment. I appreciate it so much more than you know. Peace to you, and all the best, Jamie

Hi, thanks for the review of 'Red Clouds Diner'. The reason for the long intro and overall feel of the song is because it comes from the concept album 'Eagle' , to be honest I didn't really think about the songs being listened to in isolation. Thanks again and good luck.

Good luck to you, too, John. And thanks for the explanation. It's always different hearing 'part' of a work rather than the whole concept, so that explains a lot. Enjoyed your work.
