"Smiles, Laughter, and Joy" Bishop Ronnie P. Hall

Post by Bishop Ronnie P Hall »

Hello my fellow steelers! :D
It is good to be over that terrible Flu virus bug, or whatever, it was called. It certainly took it`s toll on the Hall family. Anyway, we beat it but good!
Here is another one of my improvised melody that I composed some time ago. It`s one of those melodies that kind of hangs in your brain for some reason, (or so says my wife) :eek:. Never the less, try it on for size, and I hope you enjoy it! Again, watch out for the volume, I`m still getting used to some new equiptment that I record with. Enjoy!
Ron

Ronnie, you keep coming up with great numbers, one after the other, and your standard continues throughout. I'm running out of superlatives at the risk of becoming repetitive. ;-) 8)

Hey Alan! :D (Brookes)
As I always say, and mean it, It is always good to hear from you. You know it is always strange to be just sitting quietly alone with the Spanish guitar, or as some would call it, the lead guitar, and have a new melody just leap into your musical spirit, and suddenly you`ve got another "new" song on the way. Now if I could locate a lyricist, and a vocalist to go along with the inspiration that I have, maybe we could cook up something! :whoa: :eek: Naaw, we all would probably get arrested :eek: :lol:
Again, my dear friend, thanks so much for your encouragement. And, there could never be enough repetitive superlatives coming from you my ole friend, because I know your heart. It is in the right place. Continue to be blessed!

Hi Doug! :D (Beaumier)
You hit the nail right on the head! A joyous sound! So thats what it`s called "an uplifting melody and chord change"? I always thought I sounded like someone choking a cat!!!! :eek: :whoa: :lol: Naaw I`m just kidding. Thanks so much my dear friend for your encouraging words they mean a lot to me. :) I`m always glad to know that the music makes someone smile, because if it makes them happy, it makes me happy. Be blessed!

Hi Ron! :D (Kirby)
Thank you, for your encouragement. I just do the best I can. If I pluck that low "B", I would`nt know if I hit that, or low "Z", for the lack of formal music training. :lol: But if it works, "hallelujah!" :lol: Thanks again, my friend! The best to you, and your family.

Hello Michael! :D (Barone)
It is always good to hear how my attempts at playing, always makes the listener to be put at ease,and at least puts a smile on their faces, because believe it or not, that is what I`m all about. If I make someone else happy, then I`ll be made happy too! Thanks again my friend. Be Happy!
