Hey KATE, seems that BROADJAM and most every other music site is being saturated with "people" looking to provide "SERVICES"....they are SCAMMERS....be careful...they are everywhere, everywhere, everywhere....step cautiously as you step on stones to cross the river.... they could turtles in disguise. I get 10-20 PINGS Daily from scammers...They all use the same script. Soon I willl password protect my website... to keep the rats out.... Hope you are well.... Chester

Hey Kate! I love the vibe of "Walk In It Instrumental". Have you thought about turning it into a creative music video?

You're welcome, Mrs. Kate! ??'? I think "Walk In It Instrumental" could make a beautiful visual experience, even without lyrics. The right cinematic scenes could help bring out its mood and connect with listeners. Would you be open to hearing a creative idea for it?

Hey Kate, thanks for the nice review of my song, "The Ballad of Diamond Joe"....I added the lyrics, per your request. Indeed, it is all real....I never use AI. Yes, it is longer because back in the 60's and 70's, I never put a clock on a song.....well, not ALL the time, but if it was a story song like this one, I never chose to define it by time. Oddly enough, I don't listen to a clock either. My songs are perfect in their imperfections. AI, over here, stands for "Absolutely Incapable".... Yeee-haw! I think I told you about the song I was working on...took a while to get it done, as I wanted it to be perfectly imperfect and inspiring. Moreover, my wife is starting to heal from her back surgery and being in need of 24-7 help (me) during this whole grueling process. Anyway, my goal with the new songs was to create a poignant song like, "Yesterday", but not make it a knock off...so I did several different renditions.... then settled on a gentle-waltz like tune, country-folk...kind of like a prayerful lullaby. Imagine that. It is entitled, "Believe Today". I did something very different with this track, too. I sang it in my lowest register...so it has a Waylon Jennings and Randy Travis sound. Just me singing and finger-picking a guitar. I "talked to the song" and it is what "IT" wanted .... Oddly enough, not getting much of response. I did have a great old, famous Nashville friend say it is a very nice song, but "toooo poetic for the Nashville Yahoos". That WAS a compliment. Here ya go.
