Hi All, Our latest is for a friend in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, on VOWR 800 AM — sending a few unsung songs out into the night… This is called Rayna On The Radio. Rayna on the radio Late night signal low Somewhere past the harbor line Where the lost songs go Static on the dashboard Headlights on the road She’s talking through the wires To someone she don’t know Rayna on the radio Play it slow let it go All those songs nobody knows On the radio Kid out in Kansas With a worn out chord Woman down in Cork Still keeping score She don’t need a reason She don’t need a name She just lets ‘em roll Through the AM rain Rayna on the radio Soft and low don’t you know There’s a place for broken songs On the radio Coffee getting colder Board’s about to blow But she keeps it moving Like the river rolls Every little signal Trying to survive She’s keeping something Out there alive Rayna on the radio Don’t let go don’t let go All those songs that couldn’t stay Found a place to play Rayna on the radio Soft and low don’t you know All those songs nobody knows On the radio BIAB Tracks: 0533: Bass, Electric 2666: Pedal Steel, Rhythm RealDrums: Pop128 Sidestick Brushes Other Notes: Bob Mic: Logitech Blue Yeti Bob Vocals: Logic Pro Bob Acoustic Guitar: Martin D-18 Joliz Mic: Audio Technica AT2020USB+ Joliz Vocals: GarageBand Waves Vocal Rider: All Vocals Pre-Production: Track Editing GarageBand & Logic Pro Izotope Nectar 3 Elements for Vocals Izotope Plasma for Instrument Tracks Processing Izotope Vinyl Processing Final Track Mix & Master: Logic Pro & Izotope Ozone 11 Video: Adobe Firefly, iMovie & Final Cut Pro As always - thanks for listening!

Bob, I have said this a million times, you are one of the best story teller set to music that I have ever heard. You and Joliz have another winner on your hands. Super vocal and backing vocals Fantastic lyrics Your finger picking skills are second to none. Loved it.

Great song, Bob! "Board's about to blow," love that line. I did some radio in the seventies, had a pretty good DJ voice, but I didn't get very far. AM radio, it was all we had back then, so we loved it. Good memories!

BRAVI!!! Such a small world ... as I've just commented on YouTube, Rayna played one of my own songs on her show, a few days ago, when she returned to the airwaves after a small hiatus. She's a lovely lady, and I'm sure you made her so happy with this song. The song itself is up to your usual stratospheric standard, no surprises there, in that sense  Again, well done to the both of you, Bob and Joliz ... you've just put a massive smile on my face!

Hi Bob and Joliz! Such a good theme for a song. I remember growing up my older brother and I listening to AM radio while we were (meant to be) doing our homework - back in ‘74 and ‘75.
Your fingerpicking is really crisp and clear, and I love the way Joliz’s vocal comes in - like the aural equivalent of heat shimmer off a hot road - it also reminded me of sounds down the wire. Really good.
Good video as well - and a cool connection from James (musician17) as well!

Oh, my! You two are so good at these story songs. Man, no one has ever done it better. Outstanding. How do you keep coming up with song after song and every one so darn good? Love this one about Rayna.
