![]() This was wonderful Miles--great lyrics with a serviceable melody that brings them out well. Your playing and singing is really fine! Michael |

| Tex-Mex Groove by texasfl0od | 18 hours ago |
| This is outstanding! I especially liked the guitar licks throughout--very innovative, well phrased and totally in the pocket! What a sound! Michael |
|
| Lonely Avenue by tpeterson | 18 hours ago |
| This was a real gem Tim--heard it on the other site! Solidly performed and I'll go out on a limb here and say I much enjoyed the percussion on this--especially with the stereophonic it gives, which lifts this piece into another bracket altogether. I was clued in to the works of Doc Pomus by my friend Clay Potts, another vocalist on this site--thanks for remembering him via your great talent! Take care now, Michael |

| Mack the Knife by michaeljayklein | 1 day ago |
| Thanks Miles--the only thing worse would have been this played on kazoo, but them's the breaks! You know, the original recording of this by Louis Armstrong was the very first one I remember hearing as a child--I just loved that little 45 RPM so much my parents had to buy me at least 2 more copies; probably the very first song I ever learned to sing and I was all of 5 years old (I was a strange kid to put it lightly!) You take care now and thanks for stopping by! Michael |

| Mack the Knife by michaeljayklein | 1 day ago |
| Hey Impsie! I didn't want to make any more excuses for this one by adding that this backing is probably the all-time worst ever created! I should have put up the Bobby Darin one--oh well! Oh the guy in the picture--yeah, he was famous for only walking around at night with his head in alignment with the moon. Not an easy task, let me tell you! But definitely an exile from MI for sure (folks, by "MI" we don't mean Michigan, so don't be offended if you reside in that state, although you should be anyway). Take care Impsie! Uncle Moe and Weefie |

| Two incomparable talents united on one song--who could ask for more? Brilliantly realized you two! Full of life and spontaneous, which ain't easy on these long distance duet deals! Hope to hear more from this magnetic combination! Take care now, Louie Dumbrowsky |

|
| Chaingang Blues by pharmakeus | 2 days ago |
| Not so oddly I was about to write that this should have been part of the music score of one of the Coen brothers' best movies, but someone beat me to it. This is sheer perfection, just brilliant! Michael |
|
| The Man with the Bag by michaeljayklein | 2 days ago |

|
| Santabilly Boogie by michaeljayklein | 2 days ago |
| Thanks Merlino and Tim! I rather like trying to work on these rapid fire type lyrics and it is a real challenge to get them down solidly as possible (my maternal grandfather was a cattle auctioneer--maybe that helps, I don't know!) Take good care and hope you have a nice weekend, Michael |
|
| The Road Of Love by texasfl0od | 3 days ago |

|
| Someday, Someway by tpeterson | 3 days ago |
| I love the upbeat feel and energy of this one Tim--great instrumental work and your vocal has just the appropriate placement that compliments the rhythm of the song--never holding it back but leading it along--you have a voice that so easy to listen to and you sound great. Very much enjoyed this Dave and if need to send you a royalty fee for downloading it to my iPOd, just put it on my bill! Take good care now, Michael (PS: Didn't sound "hissy" on my Bose headphones--no!) |

| Thanks you guys, as always for your encouraging comments and for taking time out to listen to my stuff. I'm very grateful for it! Take care now, Michael PS to Ramona: Ironically enough, back in my boozing days, gin and tonic was the only thing I drank! Momma mia! I must have consumed 300,000 gallons of stuff! |

| Tiny Bubbles Sunshine by nlsn | 4 days ago |
| I love a good bass player and you really gave a splendid and carefree spin on this old tune. I'm very glad to meet you and look forward to listening to more of your playing! Michael PS: Are you familiar with a bass player from years ago named Slam Stewart? He used to hum into his strings and play at the same time--just a wonderful sound! |
|
| If I Had You by michaeljayklein | 4 days ago |
| Impsie! You didn't "accidentally on purpose" bump into their mah-jong playing table again did you? That event will certainly make it into the CC trade magazine, I'm sure! Thanks again you! Thank you too Ramona--oh dere are some flaws in this but I like to pretend they're not there! Take care both, Michael |

| Join the Club by Joanna | 6 days ago |
| I was getting pretty tired of seeing my "I Got a Fried Egg on My Head" as my latest song, so I know the feeling in full measure. You do really excellent work--your style of singing and writing reminds of the things Peggy Lee used to do, which of course, was just marvelous. Very creative work here and a delightfully rewarding listen! Michael |

| This is such a beautiful piece of music and you play it so very well. Now, I'm not patting myself on the head but I studied piano and music with three different teachers for some 11 years and I'd never know you were self-taught; this is a skilled performance, polished and elegant. Thank you for doing this one and keep up the fine work! Michael |

| Stupid Pamela (remix) by mfwmiles | 9 days ago |
![]() This is excellent Miles! Very reminiscent of Simon and Garfunkel, kind of in their style but all your own at the same time. You are an extraordinarily talented guy, to say the least! Great work! Michael PS: I dated Stupid Pamela's brother back in the early 90s. He was stupid too. |

| If I Were Your Woman by Keedeeg | 9 days ago |
| I always forget to inhale when I listen to you Lyn and I passed out a few times (had a brief trip back to a moment in my third grade class, which was kind of fun) but I regained consciousness and am enjoying listening to you for the fourth time right now. I remember this song now that I hear it and as for your performance of it, well, you are a star of the highest magnitude--it's terrific! Mish |

|
| Early Autumn by Keedeeg | 11 days ago |
| This beautiful song is extremely complex and quite a challenge to any singer, but in your talented hands it sounds easy and natural. The late Jo Stafford, arguably one of the finest singers of her day had the ability to do this and so do you--in fact, I'd say this is even better than her incredible version--sorry Jo! Listening to you, all I can do is marvel at your amazing virtuosity. This is a masterpiece. Thanks again Lyn--take good care now! Michael |

| Man, I need to get a new mouse or new bifocals--for a moment there I thought the name of this was "I Lost 12 Pounds in 2 Weeks"! All seriousness aside, this was really great--boy, are you are something else! This very much reminded me of the sounds and moods I remember as a kid growing up in the early 70s--but with something special to it. Your vocal is perfect here. GOOD STUFF! Michael |
