So, a song about today's World, first and foremost , without Greg Connor and his imput to push me on this song it would've happened. Thanks Greg, you're a star.
It's in my will, Greg, a third of all the profits go to you ....... sorry promised…
This is my 2nd Piece that I "wrote" in a pretty simple fashion. I started with the 2 pizzicato tracks and then Improvised 3 voices on top of that. It started as a test if I can plug in my audiointerface into my phone and it kind of worked out…
The last 6 months, I've been sight reading a Bach Chorale each morning (there are 400 of em!) and occasionally one sticks out that I really like.
This one sounded great on the Wurlitzer, which is literally note for note playing the chorale…
Strange Times is an international collaboration between Roger Harris & myself. Roger initiated the idea with the first verse and chorus along with a chord progression. I added the last verse and took some liberty in producing this version…

You’re all that I need
Look at me falling, lady

C.S. Lewis once wrote about the concept of "out of simple evil comes complex good." These are trying times, an understatement if there ever was one. As you read this, you have uncertainties and fears for what our current situation means for right…
Gary your words of introduction touched my heart, and then the wonderful song... WOW! Thanks so much for this. It totally made my day... Awesome things: the power of words and the power of music
I live in a house with a river running at the bottom of the garden so i wrote a song about it.

When I get down by the river and I watch it flow
I Wonder where the hell it finally goes

The drums in the chorus are in 4/4 time. Everything else is in 7/4 time. Polyrhythms, people! Welcome to the 20th century! (sorry... that's kind of a music school joke. Even I'm not sure I get it... just like most 20th century classical music…
