Description : I wish that I had hair just like Bobby Dylan.
Maybe then the world would be willing,
To listen to my song,
We shall overcome,
The ones who rule by fear,
Leaving for too long our freedoms to be squandering.
I have a dream one day truth and justice will prevail.
The winds of hope and love will fill each sail.
When we let freedom ring,
In every song we sing,
Together we can bring,
A world where all Gods children live in harmony.
I wish that I had hair just like Bobby Dylan.
Just maybe then you would be willing,
To make a stand and sing with me,
A brotherhood in symphony,
Jangling discords turn to be,
A world where all Gods children live in harmony.

Thanks so much for giving me the heads up on this song! I love it! Your vocals are perfect! Nice to hear an organ in the mix! The harmonica was very appropriate! Very well done and very inspiring! Great mixing and mastering! Faved for sure!
Briana,
I am humbled to be mentioned in any conversation with the Beatles. Thank you. When I first began work on Hair Like Bob Dylan, I intended it to be somewhat of a spoof. However as things developed it became a very sincere expression.Happy you like it and thankful for such a kind comment.

Pretty cool stuff! I liked everything about it. It sounds like you didn't hold back one bit. Nice to know there are still a few people other there who still have what it takes. Keep it up Voltage.
Thanks Todd. You know it's hard to explain to folks what it really means to have someone send such kind comments. I find inspiration and hope in such expressions. Very much appreciated.

Thanks Beef,
I'll be performing this song and one other November 23rd on Phoenix Radio/Web Broadcast worldwide. I'll be sure to post a notice for all my Looperman friends. Thanks for the kind comments. I am encouraged and inspired.

Thanks K.
I believe some songs hold a spirit within. This one seems to be reaching people from all over. I am very happy the intended message is coming through. Thank you for the kind words.

Hi Voltage,
Wow, what I nice clear sound. I like this song a lot. I just ordered 1,000 files of Harmonia royalty free loops on a disk in different styles.
Your singing is good too. Sounds like Dylan to me if I close my eyes. ;)
Thanks for sharing.
Randy
Thanks for the compliments on the Dylan piece Randy.
I want to try and do songs in the style of Lennon and McCartney, Hendrix, The Who, Mountain and others that influenced me. Sort of like what the Rutles are to the Beatles. A tribute to the music and musicians I love. Thanks for your encouragement and inspiration Randy. BTW, Love those flickr photos you posted....awesome.

This brings back a lot of good times and memories for me, when I listen to a track like this it makes me wish I could play instruments as well as people like you.

Krook,
So happy you like the Dylan tribute. I was so inspired after viewing the Martin Scorsese documentary "No Direction Home: Bob Dylan". It's special and very worth tracking down if you have not seen it. I just had to create a sincere expression in the style of Bob Dylan after experiencing this beautiful film. Thank you for sharing such kindness. Much appreciated. Voltage
Great tune bro.Its got a lot of goodwill and love flowing thru...the harp is so COOOL ! Don't tell me you play harmonica aswell ? !!! Anyway, I listened to some of your other stuff and you sure do have some serious chops mate.
Loved it,thanks for sharing.Peace and Goodwill bro.
Geo,
Thank you so much for the kind review. Yes I am playing the harmonica for what it's worth. I use it to make Dylan noises during my solo acoustic set. Funny how just a couple notes on that funny little instrument can set a mood. This song actually started out as a spoof, a joke, but after I got into it I realized, what's so funny about peace, love and understanding? The lyric took many weeks to reveal itself and I struggled with it only to once again realize, that's what it's all about. Thank you for understanding Geo. I am grateful, humbled, inspired.
Voltage
Wow!
its a something you wish to hear not once but again and again.
What an arrangement, i like it very much great guitars like always and a marvelous harmonica has taken this song to my favs, Man. Great work Overall.
Love ya.

Rashid,
Thank you so much. This might seem to be cut and dried simple, but it took me quite awhile to make happen. I am encouraged to find other musicians who seem to understand that it is the spirit of a song that makes it what it is. I am inspired by your kindness. Thanks Rashid.
Voltage
Thanks B,
Sort of my Rutles influence coming through.
Lucky enough to have a harmonica that fit the key of the song.
Thanks for the kind words.

Hey Sky...this is fantastic! Talk about out dylaning Dylan..it's all there encapsulated in this song..hell you could make heaps impersonating Bob,it's that good!.....He's always been one of my favourite performers all the way through..you'll have to go on and do "Music from Big Voltage" next......done with flair and panache..super enjoyable...cheers planet :)
Planet,
You know I figured you would be one of those people who would appreciate this expression for what it is. It seems to me that our music has diminished in importance in many ways over the years. It used to be so powerful. I have hope that this hidden power will once again emerge from the thick layers of over saturation to move mountains. Thanks for getting it Planet. There is hope after all.

Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.
Description : Feel free to check out the lyrics video on YT as well :) This is a new track based on the great vocals by Ashes and Dreams! Again, a mix of electronic/progressive/rock, any feedback is welcome
Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.
Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).

Description : In the 1700's the Comanche Indians became known as the Lords of the Southern Plains. The Comanche ruled a region that stretched across New Mexico, Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado and deep into the Texas Panhandle. The most feared and savage warriors of all the tribes of the old West.
