Love your sound, your songs and your productions Al ... I could listen to you all day long, never gets old.
Thanks so much Linda. That's very kind of you. Any songs in particular? I've become very forward in my old age. Working on my own album (never done one before) I've contacted Bob Clearmountain to see if he'll mix one of my songs. The nerve lol!
2/21/23 Excited to soon be able to let the world hear the story of Chief Joseph in song .... recording vocals next week ... and blessed to have Kenny L. Lewis (of the Steve Miller Band) producing and playing on this record! Fly like an Eagle!
To a fellow Leonard Arnold friend. I Love this song, Linda
Hi Paul, yes Leonard was a keeper! Glad you enjoyed this song! I like it too!
Just Uploaded "Missing" ... a year long project song I think you'll like
In the studio recording a new blues tune next week! Excited!
Roy, Thanks for putting my song "I'm Lookin' at You" on your pop playlist! Much appreciated.
Clark, Thanks for being a member. I really love the "pop" groove of that song. All the best, Roy
My most sincere sense of gratitude towards you Mr. Elkins for adding my song " Spirit Of The Great Gray Wolf" to your New Age 2019 playlist. Many Blessings.
Hi Roy, glad you are enjoying my blues tunes and thanks for the playlist add. I am recording a new song next week called "Cowgirl with a Blues Bone" ... if that tips you off to the genre any! (its about a girl's love for her horse ... since her man ain't acting right)

Just Finished writing a brand New Song about "Music" ... one that I can barely play, but once I learn it, it's gonna be the bomb. I think I'm better at the lyrics, but on this song, I was challenging myself on the musical side as well .... hearing parts in my head (musically) that I can't play easily on guitar... and honestly, I even heard piano parts ... but I don't play piano, so that's not happening in this life today. I will stick with trying to learn the guitar parts that my head instructed me to play. Does anybody know where music comes from? Really?
It comes from the Almighty for me!:))Puts it into my heart and soul then into my mind to be able to share it with others':)just comes from within.... But of course is different for everyone!!!:))
Challenge is good!! Keep at it!!:)))
new song yall ... check it out .... http://www.broadjam.com/artists/songs.php?artistID=84688&mediaID=636018&play=true 1

Wow! " Thank you mom" is beautiful, a tearjerker... What a gorgeous song about" choosing life"!!!! Thank you for sharing this song !! Looking forward to listening to many more!! God Bless.. Julia:)
The vocals were amazing!! A definite Luke Bryan vibe!!!:)
Thank you Julia, your comments mean a lot to me.
Surely!!!! Great music:))
Cooped up in a wintery blizzard for 2 days, so what cha gonna do but write a new song? A new one cropped out over the last couple of days through the winter "chill" .... and it definitely has it's "folk roots" showing. I saw somewhere that folk music was coming back into vogue? Well if it ain't so, I'm ready for the next wave! The song is called "College Heart" and has a ton of melody & words. It's funny how you can write a song and then you have to spend time learning how to sing it! I pulled out my 12 string for this one and wow I forgot how cool those things can sound! I will brush up on the performance of the song and put it out here for your critique (after I become more fluent playing & singing it). I think you may like it!
New song upload on 1-14-2014 ... check out "Automatic Fool" .... oh say it ain't so!
Uploading a new ("old") song here in a few called "Automatic Fool" ... about caring for the wrong one .... no ones ever done that have they?
I'm wondering what software is the easiest to learn to use in making a home-made video of one of my original songs (using still pictures , , , cuz moving pictures might be a little harder to start out with). Any advice is helpful!
Hey, Broadjam's vendors are picking some of my music for sync licensing. So I'm trying to encourage you other songwriters to submit you stuff! Somebody's gotta make the songs for the movies & TV ... why not you n me?
