[dcab-l] Original Love Song: "Anyway"

Music Lovers:

 

Here is an original composition from songwriter Phyllis Alden, a neighbor who in

the 80s, lived in Takoma Park, Md., a real hotbed of musicians.

 

I served as her lead guitarist and harmony singer.  I thought to sing her song

“Anyway” with my own voice, guitar, and arrangement.

 

My music endeavors began playing classical guitar, and did that for 5 years;

right hand technique was helpful as I moved on to bass guitar and upright.  So,

this song is dedicated to my first guitar teacher, Joseph Mayes.

 

On  “Anyway”, I am playing a beautiful old Ramirez classical.  I recorded this

song at Micah Solomon’s "Oasis Studios" in College Park, Md.

 

This is a lush and lovely song; I hope the timing, touch, and tone of the Ramirez

matches the pathos of this heart wrenching original.  To listen, click:

As always, try headphones!
