Hi All. My wife and I are both fighting very serious health issues. I'll listen to the rest of you as I can. Eventually I'll get around to hearing most of you

FWIW: THE LYRIC IS SOMEWHAT SUGGESTIVE

Wrote and recorded this one about a year ago. Would love to heat your comments! Thanks for your time to listen and comment.

Alan

When My Woman Makes Love To Me

(c) 2013 Alan D. David, BMI


(v1)
Erotic Whispers, I ask her if she'd dare
Lips tracing boldly, I kiss her everywhere
Her breath is heavy, as I make my move
Her body answers when I find my groove
I'm taken to a place beyond the ecstasy
She satisfies my every fantasy

CHORUS

When my woman makes love to me
My soul breaks out in fire
She never leaves me
With an unfulfilled desire
She won't refuse me
She gives me what I need
It's passion with no limits
When my woman makes love to me

INSTRUMENTAL VERSE

CHORUS

When my woman makes love to me
My soul breaks out in fire
She never leaves me
With an unfulfilled desire
She won't refuse me
She gives me what I need
It's passion with no limits
When my woman makes love to me

(v2)
Her touch is tender, her passion oh so strong
She lets me have my way, cuz I won't do her wrong
Our bodies melding, as two turn into one
And when we're finished, the loving's still not done
She whispers in my ear
Says it's the best it's ever been
And she can't wait to love me once again

CHORUS

When my woman makes love to me
My soul breaks out in fire
She never leaves me
With an unfulfilled desire
She won't refuse me
She gives me what I need
It's passion with no limits
When my woman makes love to me

Hello Alan,

First song I have ever heard from you. Calvin took the word right out of my mouth. "Smooth" as silk. This really brought me back to my childhood home. Music like this was played by my parents all day long in my household and it stayed with me. Really really well done.

Best of luck with both you and your wife's health issues and healing thoughts sent your way.

Hey Al,

Man, I'm just sitting here chillin'

I know that you're doin' BIAB which you do well and don't need, and I miss your playing, but mate, that's just damn good.

Hi Dave ...

Nice to "meet" you! I'll get over to hear you tonight.

Glad you enjoyed it. This is the music I grew up with as a young man. I'm almost 68 years old. I grew up listening to this, Country and 60's Rock. I've always liked R&B, particularly Smooth R&B. I'm a big Lou Rawls, Barry White, Al Green fan.

My wife and I appreciate the well-wishes for our health. We have a lot of obstacles to climb, but it's a matter of holding the course and doing what the doc says.

Best to you ...

Hey Shifty!!!!

So nice to hear from you, mate! Keep chillin'!

And thanks for the kind words about my use of BIAB ... still learning, it's a very challenging piece of software but well worth the trouble to learn.

I don't do a lot of my own playing any more. I have Focal Dystonia and it's progressing at a rapid rate. you can look it up online if you want, but basically it causes my fingers to turn inward and want to ball into a fist. It also makes them stiff and there's a small amount of pain. The pain isn't all that bad, but the rest if it sure puts a crimp in my playing.

I'm going to post a video of me playing in a couple of weeks. It will illustrate how much my skills have declined.

Anyway, so glad you dropped in for a listen and your kind words put a smile on my face!

Wishing you the best, mate ...

Alan

Alan, First off I hope both of you get to feeling better soon. The song reminds me of the kind Barry White - he of the deep voice - used to sing. The women love this kind of seductive song. And it all sounds good to me, too. Its a good number. I enjoyed it.

Hi Dan ...

Thanks for your time to give this a listen and comment so nicely. And yeah, the ladies eat this stuff up! To me it has something between a Barry White feel and a Lou Rawls touch. So, we're on the same page.

Glad you liked it. Thanks for letting me know! Best to ya ...

Hey Floyd ...

We got a room ... just across the hall from our home studio! Where did you think I got the inspiration for this???!!!

Glad you like it. I've gravitated somewhat from Contemporary Country to Smooth R&B over the past few years as my genre of primary effort. Still like the Country and other genres but this one a a pretty good fit for me.

Thanks for the well-wishes. The medical issues have been a struggle but we're still kicking along!

Best to ya, my friend!

I love the smooth sound of this! It reminds a lot of some of the older R&B songs I used to listen too. Nicely done! I hope the health issues improve. Take care!

HI Alan,

I have a friend who always jokes, "it doesn't matter how you feel, it's how you look." I'll adapt that here -- "it doesn't matter how you feel, it's how you SOUND!" And you sound as great as ever! This has a really LUXURIOUS feel to it!

I hope that you and Di are feeling as good as you sound soon!!

Hi Jen,

Nice to "meet' you! Thank you for taking a moment or two to give this a listen and then leave your thoughts. Sure do sappreciate appreciate the very kind comments. And that was the idea ... to bring back that Barry White/Lou Rawls/Al Green sound. This kind of R&B is hard to come by these days. Thanks again.

I see you live in Appomatox, VA. I used to live not too far from there ... Blackstone, VA. It's a little east of Appomatox, east of Burkeville and Farmville on Highway 460.

Again, thanks!

Thanks again. Wishing you well ...

HI Janice & Bud!

Well, same goes here ...fans no matter where you guys are! We sure do appreciate those wonderful comments. I seldom get kudos on my singing ... not true for Di, though! So, that was a real big ego-booster! We love this genre of music, as you know. We hope to post a new one here and there real soon ... maybe next week or later this week.

Best to you guys!

Hi Tammy!!!

So very nice to hear your thoughts. You've been a big supporter for several years now and I can't tell you how much I (and now, "WE") appreciate that.

The positive thoughts are most welcome. We're both facing very serious issues, but we try not to dwell on them too much. Just do what we can with what we have that still works right.

So glad you liked this one ... thanks you many times over for those simply wonderful comments. It does us good!

And we're sending wishes your way for a terrific rest of the year. Best to ya, dear friend!

Alan & Di

PS: Will be over again tomorrow or Monday to start listening and commenting again. My latest novel has a short deadline and I'm spending a lot of time with it. I have just over a month to finish two chapters, get it edited, proof it and then sent to my publisher.

Hi! It's nice to "meet" you too. smile I know where Blackstone is...have traveled through once or twice. I used to be on these boards a lot but life got in the way, along with major writer's block, so I'm not on as much these days. It's great to be here though...always feel very welcomed!

Hey Jen ...

I've not been here much lately. A combination of personal issues and some serious health issues. I'm almost 70 years old and getting old is not a graceful decline for most of us!

Besides the folks who live there, you and I might be the only folks familiar with Blackstone. I was there in 1967 and 1968. I was assigned there when I came back from Vietnam.

best to you and wishes for succes with your music.

HI Mike ...

Thanks for dropping in to take a listen. We sure do appreciate it. I think it was Vic (Vicarn) who gave me the moniker of "Mr. Smooth" recently. I can live with that!

Sure do appreciate the very kind words. I played in a Country band (lead guitar) for 40+ years but have always liked almost all genres of music. My playing is best suited for Country but my singing is much suited for Smooth R&B and crooning those old Pop Tunes.

Will get over to hear you in the next day or two. Looking forward to it.

Thanks for the well-wished regarding our health. I'm battling a very serious gastro-intestinal issue and my wife, who had a very serious, devastating stroke 5 years ago had another mild stroke recently. It's been a battle but we're still swinging our swords! We're both knocking on the door to 70 (68 yrs old) and as we turn the pages on the calender, the battle gets a little more complicated and serious. But, as I said, we're still around to kick and holler!

Best to you ...

Alan & Di
