Here's the second song I recently decided to do with a studio recording from one I wrote and posted here a while ago as a purely vocal version. It's one of my favorites.... I hope you'll enjoy it too
Singing In The Silence
Verse 1:
Singing…
Well this one marked the beginning of better songs as the last few I wrote really didn't please me or anyone so they went to the heap before ever making it here!!!

I added some additional lyrics to complete the last verse and we played this around Greg's coffee table last night.
Greg Connor, Mark Lofgren, and Mike Rudquist on guitars and vocals with me....
Hope you enjoy this version as much as the first!

Deserts of the Higher Plane
Searches end, I had to admit
Mirages were never towns
Till I finally quit with my damages aloft
Holding what I can’t, what I can’t allow
Desserts of the Higher Plane roll along
Desserts of the higher plane…
Really great song .Feel of soul,feel of heart that is not yours.Music is something I feel very passionate about, my experience in various areas of the industry has fed this passion.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall....
Humpty Dumpty's Warning Song (A preachy cautionary tale)
Pieces of the heavens lost
Shattered like ice on the ground
Desperate men struggled on
To put back all they had found
I sat upon a great stone…

I was so excited when SlKrell wrote to ask if I would do the vocals on this excellent song he wrote! I loved his lyrics and the rocking backing guitars. Hope you enjoy it too!
Merry Christmas everyone.
I wanted to drop ya'll a line and say happy holidays.
I'm always thinking of you.
I hope to be around for RPM 2016.
I will be doing RPM as Wildgeas Music.
Much love

Okay this is cool cool coolio..... and cuz the Proods comment made me look up spaghettification I too spent some time reading about it... i love the reference to the subway... and boy do I ever need a vacation. This song is now my new fav ear worm!
Friends...an offering from the not-real album "Dr. Pepsi's Death Cult Glee Club". The song was inspired by t.v. commercials featuring actor William Devane, who has spent the last few years trying to convince Americans to buy gold.
The sentiments…
You guys are having so much fun ALL THE TIME!!! I love the creative pool this great stuff comes out of. "Fill the bathtubs with champagne and jump right in".... A perfect sentiment after a long week. Thanks for the happy Friday soundtrack!

A nice melody and good lyrics. Your style and voice remind me of Judy Collins!

It seems like it's been forever. I'm being redundant, but I really love the simplicity of these compositions. Unadulterated music.
