About Me


Thank you for stopping by.

Here you will find a few of the tunes I have helped co-write. "Be That Strong", was written by Tim Mensy and Tony Haselden... I'm just lucky enough to have had the pleasure of being around it.

I am producing the Joanna Collins' CD which will be released very soon. With the already mentioned exception of "Be That Strong", I co-wrote each of Joanna's tunes which are posted on *this/my* page or *her/Joanna's* page. I did not write all the tunes on the CD... just 6.

Joanna is my first friend down yonder in the Top Friends' box... click her purdy pikchur, and it will take you directly to her page. These are the final mixes with the exception of "Blue As The Ocean", which needs a slight volume adjustment to a guitar part in a few places, and one other small tweek. The mastered versions will be posted as soon as they are ready.

A number of folks have asked about the lead in "Ain't Been Home" at the break... it is a pedal steel, played by the astounding Mike Sweeney, with a ton and a half of chorus added after the fact... I hope Mike will forgive me. :).

I will add to the blog anytime tunes are added or updated. So if you care to subscribe to the blog - and *please do* - you can stay updated with the latest goings-on... hassle free.

If you wish to hear The Demo Tunes' song, it is now on the MySpace player... it'll be the one with the chattering teeth... "Smoking Gun." I co-wrote The Demo Tunes' song, also.

Soon, I will be posting a tune (or two) with just me playing acoustic guitar and singing... for the masochists among us. There will be a blog warning you about that when it happens. If you listen to that, or those tunes, it is at your own risk. My voice and playing ability do not reflect the views - or abilities - of management.

I am a happily married guy. One of my real-life nicknames is kooder. Since this is, I hope, a "G" rated page, I will not share some of the other names my real life friends call me. I am not Joanna Collins... she is much purdier.

Hope you enjoy the music. Thank you for stopping by, and please feel free to check back often. You are always welcome here.

Thank you kindly,

kooder
