TAKE IT TO HEART - PAT MOORE AND THE VINYL FRONTIER   “…this is whiskey-drinking, heart-wreck territory done up in classic 1950’s and ‘60’s era country arrangements.” Patrick Langston, Ottawa Citizen   Here are some samples from the Take it to Heart Collection:   Forgivin’ and Forgettin’  Western Swing – simple message: “forgivin’ and forgetting’, that’s my motto”.   It Hurts  Yup – it’s a hurtin’ song, complete with full 4-part harmony. Cheesy but fun, “it really hurts”.   I’ll be Your Fool ‘til The End of My Days  We were already well into the recording of the CD when I wrote this one. I thought “we don’t have a Louvin Brothers-style duet”. Now we do!   Take it to Heart  I have a video running through my mind whenever I sing this song … “Two glasses in the parlour, lipstick smudged on one…” A bit of Patsy Cline, a dash of Ray Charles, add a drop of Ted Hawkins, and you’ve got Take it to Heart.     THE TIME’S NEVER BEEN BETTER – PAT MOORE   “…The lady is a wonderful songwriter, and she delivers her songs with a smooth-as-silk vocal treatment, incorporating various elements of bluegrass and folk/country sounds with some creative jazz touches.” Larry Delaney, Country Music News   Medley  A sample of a few of the songs on this 14 song collection of originals.   Billy’s Song  Billy’s Song was written after having watched a documentary on TB about kids who are bullied. “No one ever knew what Billy was going through, or the world he built inside of his head.” What happened to Billy is up to you. Let’s hope that we can all play a part in eliminating bullying.     OTHER PROJECTS – PAT MOORE   I wrote this song for the Christmas compilation “Christmas GOOSE” – a collection of seasonal music from Ottawa area songwriters.   If You Were Here With Me
