Hi Y'all... http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_songInfo.cfm?bandID=908328&songID=11607988This is a 1995 4-track demo I recorded while living in Nashville, and heavily under the influence of Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt. It never graduated to full production cuz it seemed out-of-sync with what was coming out at the time. Then I forgot about it for a dozen years or so, and only found it just now while in the process of trying to gather my pro stuff to upload to my future host, Bandcamp. So I thought I'd share it! I haven't been doing country lately, mostly modern classical for music production libraries. Please feel free to critique! Oh, btw, that last written verse is a "facsimile" of what I remembered writing for a possible second version, around that time. It never got recorded, but I included it, here. Thanks...  ************************************************************** Magic Music Box (Michael Zaneski, 1995, All Rights Reserved) When I was ten I had a pocket radio I knew the words to all my favorite songs I listened with it underneath my pillow and all my friends would sing me all night long It was me and ma but they were just like family Buck and Marty, Dolly, Glen and Merle And ma was worried how I stood by Tammy Yeah Tammy was my very first best girl She was gentle on my mind Underneath my pillow Pickin' up Tulsa time far away as Amarillo I know Billie Jo's just layin' low Down in the boondocks It was more than just a radio My magic music box Oh I loved to tune it in to far 'way places The static sounded like how spacemen talked And I tried to picture how music could travel Could fly into my magic music box But then one day I lost my magic radio I kicked it running for the ice cream man And momma said "no big, I'll buy another" Oh momma momma you don't understand It was gentle on my mind Underneath my pillow Pickin' up Tulsa time far away as Amarillo I know Billie Jo's just layin' low Down in the boondocks It was more than just a radio My magic music box It was more than just a radio My magic music box

"If you are stuck in your musical composing, be unreasonable. Change your environment. If you are stuck in your lyrical efforts, instead of forcing the same old words out, force yourself to do unreasonable things." -Brian Austin Whitney
