Well, heck, I'm soon to be 49, is that close enough? I'm working on a rock cowrite right now but it's nowhere near done. Will this do instead? It's maybe more pop/rock tho. http://www.broadjam.com/player/player.ph....ionI NDEX=15473

OK, you did say something to effect that home rough recordings OK...You know how when the stock market crashes, they don’t call it a crash anymore?… it’s a “correction”… And you down get laid off, you get “downsized”… so many PC ways of trying to soften bad things...So I got this idea for a punk rock song called "Lifestyle Correction"... My girlfriend didn't leave me, she just made a "lifestyle correction"... (I know it could be interpreted in other ways too)...One verse with no lyrics and a full chorus (about 20 seconds in)... Casey goes punk in his 50's, LOL...www.caseysongs.com/LifestyleCorrection9.mp3 Casey

Well, ok - I'm not 50. But I definitely FEEL like I'm 50 some days! A very rough improv with the click track and everything. http://www.taximusic.com:8888/k/kurlyqu ... 07.mp3.m3u
