เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 1 ต.ค. 2006
Hello everybody, welcome to my place.. What can I say? Like a lot of you I'm just looking for some meaning in this life, through friends, music, art and words..
I'm primarily a guitar player, then add some bass playing, songwriting, singing and writing to that.. I am so grateful that I get to play music and make a living just doing what I love the most. When I was a kid, I slept with my 1968 Goldtop Les Paul and would wake up gazing at it like I would my girlfriend. Every night I dreamt of doing what I get to do now.

Lyrics:
We used to sing “Don’t Stop Believin’”
Things change, tonight we’re leavin’
On the midnight train outta this town
This world is almost over,
No use in gettin’ sober
Now it’s time for you and I
To make our getaway
Hold Me Close
Don’t let go,
Where it ends nobody knows
Just hold Me Close
Don’t say goodbye,
Stay with me, we’ll be alright
When I see you, walkin’ down the street
Always gettin’ my heart beatin’
Louder than a big bass drum at a disco
Fake news, it ain’t worth readin’
Pack a bag, tonight we’re leavin’
It’s time for you and I
To make our getaway
So Hold Me Close
Don’t let go,
Where it ends nobody knows
Just hold Me Close
Don’t say goodbye,
Stay with me, we’ll be alright
I shake, you shimmy, shimmy, shimmy
No brakes now, gimme, gimme, gimme
There’s just nobody here like you
So Hold Me Close
Don’t let go,
Where it ends nobody knows
Just hold Me Close
Don’t say goodbye,
Stay with me, we’ll be alright
So Hold Me Close
Don’t let go,
Where it ends nobody knows
Just hold Me Close
Don’t say goodbye,
Stay with me, stay with me baby,
we’ll be alright

Great vibes
Awesome video love it , seen you last night with Paul in Manchester , what an amazing incredible performance absolutely amazing
Paul m'a mené à lui et un vieil ami également. Mon chemin avec toi ...tu me manques mon ami .
Maestro, lo escuché tocar con Paul en Bogotá - Colombia, es un placer poder haberlo escuchado a usted, excelente guitarrista bajista y cantante
The girl whether in the cartoon or live is SO HOT
Hope he’s making at least US$40k after taxes from each Sir Paul show. Retirement is just around the corner.
Excelente!!!

Green SG! Brian, you and Jason Falkner should do something together.
Looove the catchy, groovy Beatlesque ballad, enamoured of the green SG! and Brian pulls it all off sooo well! Graphics are KILLER! the chorus is still ringing in my head--fab guitar tones, and the 4-minor to 5 resolution in the chorus is magnificent! Did I mention...the breakdown...this is special. Wish it were...longer!!!
Brian Ray spent 14 years as Musical Director/Band leader for Etta James. Just one if the reasons he didn't have to audition for McCartney's band. ❤
You need to be on Ringo's All Star Band to play this live. Nice rocker. Love the Les Paul Jr.
Abe's really rockin' that kilt , and a chick base , cool.
Paul sure knows how to pick em .
Nice song, nice singer and nice lady!
Wow, awesome LP Special 😎. Great guitar tones.
