J.R. McNeely Music
США
Добавлен 4 ноя 2010
J.R McNeely is a Grammy award winning mix engineer and musician that likes to create music...new versions of old songs (covers) and some original music too! 100% all by himself...because...it's...just what he does. And stuff.
A I Can't Love You Like I Do By J R McNeely
A.I. is a thing now. It’s real! When I was a kid in the 80’s…A.I. seemed to be something that might happen in the long distant future, WAY after my generation was gone. But it is here. Right NOW! The future IS TODAY!
Now, just to be clear, I’m not living in fear of “The Borg”…or building a bunker, and preparing for “The Great Robot Invasion”. LOL! BUT…I am a bit concerned at how quickly people seem to be so accepting of A.I. in music, and Art in general. So, this is my “tongue in cheek” response to that. I hope you enjoy it!
Song Info: I wrote and recorded this rough acoustic guitar / vocal demo a few months ago, with the intention of eventually recording a full band version. But given what...

4 Simple Words (I Love You More) - An original song by J R McNeely
Просмотров 2367 месяцев назад
“4 Simple Words (I Love You More)” I was recently inspired, and encouraged by a couple friends (who are INCREDIBLE songwriters!) to start writing again. Those of you that know me well, know that I RARELY write songs. I’ve never really been a fan of songwriting, for a number of reasons… but, that’s a story for another time. Anyways, after a great conversation one evening with one of those friend...
J R McNeely's 2 Man Band Featuring John Spittle Black Dog
Просмотров 434Год назад
Song number 4 in my "Two Man Band" series! This one features my good friend John Spittle on drums. John has been playing drums for mega country star Trace Adkins for many years on stage and in the studio, and he's also the drummer for a band called "The Brave" (Make sure to check out their recent albums "Evie's Little Garden" and "Gravedigger" on Spotify!). John is a big Led Zeppelin fan like I...

My “Hit Country Song” that never was. I have been a professional “Recording Engineer / Mix Engineer” since 1991. (I still am, thankfully!) And, although the vast majority of my professional life has been spent working on other peoples music, I have “dabbled” in songwriting, and being a professional musician (stage and studio) through the years. So, back in the mid 1990s, I was doing some mixing...

My son Grahm joins me on this installment of "The 2 Man Band" project. He's is learning to play drums, and has GREAT timing! He absolutely KILLED this track in the best possible way. I'm SO proud of him!! (Proud Dad moment here. ;)
Something (Cover) J R McNeely's 2 Man Band Featuring Adrian Walther
Просмотров 252Год назад
For the past 3 years, I have had the absolute pleasure, and honor to mix Adrian Walther's music for Soundstripe. He is an INSANELY talented composer and musician, and he's become a dear friend as well. When I asked him if he'd like to do a song with me, he said..."Something!" We gotta do something!". Being a Beatle nerd...I knew what he meant! ;) So, this is our "2 Man Band" version of the clas...
J R McNeely's "2 Man Band" Featuring Ron Norris Limelight
Просмотров 6732 года назад
I have decided to do some “Two Man Band” songs, and get some of my ridiculously talented musician friends involved! So, with the very first “Two Man Band” song, it only seemed right to begin this journey…well…at the VERY beginning! I met Ron Norris when I was was 10 years old. Ron wanted to be a drummer, and I wanted to be a guitar player. So, he would come over to my house, and I would strum o...

I have never covered a Gospel song before. (Well…”Oh Holy Night” and “God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman” are actually Gospel songs…but…anyway…) As is almost always the case, there is a story behind the songs I cover, and this one is no different. I have a personal connection with this one. Way back in 1993, I was hired to mix a Gospel album by an “Americana” singer songwriter by the name of Julie Mil...
Look Out World - J R McNeely One Man Band
Просмотров 5622 года назад
I love “Classic Rock” music. Of course, when I was a kid it was just called…”Rock Music”. HA! Anyways, If you’ve been around me for any length of time, you know that I don’t write songs very often. I mostly just do covers, because I don’t particularly LIKE songwriting. That being said…this song just kinda came out of nowhere in about 20 minutes one day, so I figured I should record it. (I DO li...
Strawberry Fields Forever Cover By J.R. McNeely One Man Band
Просмотров 3903 года назад
My childhood had very little in common with John Lennon’s, with the exception of…Strawberry Fields. Well, sorta. John Lennon grew up near an orphanage that was named Strawberry Fields, where he played on the grounds as a child. I grew up near actual Strawberry Fields, and I used to spend a lot of time there, riding my bike on the makeshift “BMX Track” built by the neighborhood kids in the dirt ...
J R McNeely One Man Band "Listen To Her Heart"

Another song I started work on about 2 years ago.Lori’s requested it, as it’s one of her favorite Tom Petty songs. Just like “Lay Down Sally” it’s been collecting dust on a hard drive…and since I finished that one, I figured it was time to get this one finished too! (Fun Fact: According to Wikipedia, Tom Petty wrote this song about Ike Turner trying to steal his wife!)

Just about every “One Man Band” song I’ve recorded has a story behind why I recorded it...and this one is no different. Way back in 1992 before we moved to Nashville, I found myself mixing a country album...in Southern California. As some you know, before I discovered Rock n Roll and The Beatles, I listened to a lot of great old country music, thanks to my Dad and Mom. (Early Buck Owens, Johnny...

Romantic.....simple.....lovely...!!!

Deserves a wider audience, superb!
Nice. Thank you, fellas.
Beyond Awsome!!
The Moontraveling podcast sent me here. Incredible stuff, J.R. -- you are extremely talented. Thank you for sharing your gifts.
Thank you so much! Thank you for listening! 😊
In my hood, us cholos say 'A' for everything so that's how I take the song...😅
lol! A! I can’t love you like I do. 😂 Well played, my friend! 😎
Love it! Well said!
Thanks man! 😊👍
Love it man! Keep on rocking!
Thanks!! 😊Will do! (Well…I’ll keep trying! 😁👍)
@JRMcNeelyMusic I love your original songs and the stories you tell about how it all came together. About a year ago, I discovered BandLab and even though I am an amateur, I love relaxing, (sometimes struggling) putting original songs together. It's one of my newer hobbies which I enjoy very much. I like sharing on RUclips how the songs came together as well. So glad I discovered your channel years ago. Keep making the songs and sharing their stories :) Both parts really make the song!!!
I like ir
you're so great
so great I got chills❤
So good!! Brilliant cover.
Absolutely love this!!!!
Spot on. Great version of a great song. Well done guys.
Excellent 👏🤩👍
Need more J.R. in my life
With masks on. More sheeple
For the record, we made this video at the very beginning of the pandemic BEFORE masks were even a thing! We wore them as a joke! Had absolutely ZERO to do with anything political or whatever. But, hey…thanks for assuming the worst.
You just continue to impress and amaze me with ALL of your different musical gifts (they seem to be never ending). Very well done JR! I love that it was written for your wife. How beautiful is that? May you always be inspired and continue to write and perform great songs!
This song is radio ready. Well done.
So romantic, JR!
Well, she somehow still digs me after all these years. I don't know why...but I am thankful! ☺ Hope you and your family are well, and having a joyous Christmas season! Much love to you, my old friend! I'm honored that you would listen. (If I remember correctly, you're not a big fan of country music! 😁)
I am honestly a big fan of anything that you do! I love your one man band videos! @@JRMcNeelyMusic
Well done, sir. There’s at least one truly sincere love song out there now. ❤
This man is an amazing talent! I love your sound as usual. Bye from your n.1 fan fom italy!
Beautiful song, J.R. ❤
@ 1:10-1:13 "I didn't understand a word you just said!" 😂🤘Brilliant man and bass player!
AWESOME WORK! YOU' RE AMAZING!
Wonderful !
My older brother was born in 1951, and my sister in 1953.
Very cool chord progression, could be a good example for a music theory class.
The lead guitar part was an amazing upgrade. Awesome job with this song.
Absolutely Fantastic!!!
Well done❣ That song is still as fresh & musically relevant as when it was first released in March, 1977 - 46yrs. ago❣ Kind regards❣
I LOVE THIS!!!!
well done.
Brilliant mate. Very talented musician. Something that cant be taught. Natural talent. From Wales
Brilliant cover up there with the best
Lol who stayed inside during quarantine??? Jesus. Know who you voted for.
Yes, Jesus does know who I voted for....but that's none of your business. 😂 Thanks for listening. 👍
@@JRMcNeelyMusichope your happy with the worlds worst economy
@@Imafly5150 I'm happy regardless of the economy! Not sure why you want to bring politics into this. I make music here. For everybody to (hopefully) enjoy. If you don't dig the music, that's totally cool. Nobody is forcing you to listen. And man, there are PLENTY of places on the web to argue about politics. This is NOT one of them.
I listened to this without watching the video and your son has great timing! :)
Dude, sounds great, but I would expect nothing less from you!
Amen! Beautiful rendition!
Beautiful!
Bravo!
Awesome!
My respect to Andrew he had the right stuff. Look up talent in dictionary an his name is there im sure. REST IN HEAVENLY PEACE ANDREW GOLD an thanks for sharing your talent with us. By the way you guys did a good job.
Rock'on as always ...!!!
Absolutely FANTASTIC JOB J.R.! That is also one of my all time country hits and you nailed it perfectly! I really enjoyed that! I even replayed it 4 times! Lol You have excellent vocal talent and wonderful musical background band! Keep up the great sounds and work! You can and will go far in the business if you wish to!! Stay safe
Dude those drums are sooo phat!!! Great job! I couldn’t help but notice that the guitar I made for you has got a crazy amount of finish checking on it. Hopefully it’s not an issue for you but it bugs the 💩 out of me. I can’t remember what year I built it maybe it’s just that old and it’s a normal thing but I’ve seen late 50’s guitars with less checking. Remember that guitar comes with a my lifetime warranty so if you want it refinished let me know. I love seeing that you actually play that thing!
It’s my favorite guitar on earth! 😊👍 Not only does it play and sound amazing…YOU made it…and that means the world to me, my friend! I plan on being buried with it! 😁Yeah, the checking thing happened pretty early on. It’s all good, man! Stoked you dig the tune! I gotta find some time for you and I to do another tune!!
That means a lot bro! I’d be stoked to do another!!!
