This is a cover of a song written by my songwriter friend Mike Miller. I always thought he brought a unique perception to his writing. He gave permission for me to cover the piece. You can check him out at:

A Christian musician who worked with inmates at a juvenile prison told me a lot of these people had never heard a Bible story … much less of Jesus. I decided then to start doing more spiritual tunes.
I liked the lyrics but couldn't come up with a chord run I liked. I've got an old Peavey amp I rescued from a barn and a cheap foreign made Peavey guitar that had a broken plastic nut. I made a steel nut for it and use the guitar and amp for…
Haha, no Mercedes Benz huh ? :) I've got an old '74 sportster (I know, not considered by some to be from the "Harley years") I've got to get back on the road... cop issue years ago :( Like your raw sound:)
I was visiting my mother's grave in the rural town where I went to high school. While strolling through the cemetery I came across Deana's headstone. She passed on during her first year in high school, if memory serves. Sometimes the good really…

I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too.
For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…
When you C reach the Em point
When it’s F all in the rear view C mirror
And Am reflection is your G only point of C view G
You C feel it Em inside
When it F becomes so C clear
There’s Am nothing that G you can C do
F Hold on to G memories…

So I got me a new geetar the other week.
Named her Lala, obviously. Seemed kind of appropriate - she wears a faded gold dress and is full of chunes and mischiefs.
This is our first effort together. It was meant…

Now here's a bit of an oldie - the second song I ever wrote. In... 1978!
I think I played it once, or maybe twice, at school assemblies. My musical peers and colleagues back then dismissed it as corny/rancid pop music…

And here is the first reply to In Your Hands.
I say "first" because I've found another one, When I Try To Be Me, that Mrs R says I have to do too... but that's unlikely to be the next one I post because I'm working…

MN Homebrew Radio show has a monthly writing contest. This month it was to use the word "wait" or "waiting" in your song. So the hook line of the chorus popped into my head at 5:30 in the morning and the rest of the song came pretty quickly…
Here's a song that battled me for quite awhile... so I am glad to say I've gotten it recorded. Still rough from my home studio, but trying out a few additional things on my keyboard to round out the sound around the ukulele. Thanks for listening…
I had a wish to sing along with Greg, so he offered me a piece of his Cherry Pie to sing along with... I added a few other bits here and there as well. Thanks Greg!!! This was a fun one for me... added some piano and a teeny bit of percussion....
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 was sitting enjoying a refreshing springtime breeze and felt that pull of…

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

Here's my last studio effort of the summer, as we roll into fall!
I wrote this one earlier in the year sipping mojito's at the proverbial beach bar and then posted it here.... I thought I'd give it a little sprucing up with the help from my…

Glad you're sharing more of your art. I haven't been able to listen in until just recently. Best of luck.
Living in a college town, big music school, I've learned to appreciate Jazz. Nice work.
Nice simple piece. Like it.
Great piece.
I must be corny. I like it.
Good stuff. You're very versatile.
Does have an old school feel ... but that's good.
The theme song of Texas.
Don't have a canoe … but did build a flat-bottom pirogue. Works in Texas. Good song.
Old school. Love it.
I like simple. Great voice.
Catchy.
Nice.
Been awhile since I've been here. They've changed the site and I'm having trouble navigating it … however, love the song labeled Police Dog.
Well done, to say the least.
I never get tired of your beautiful voice.
Kind of reminds me of the Moody Blues. Good stuff.
Like this a lot.
Beautiful.
Sound like a Texan. That's a good thing.
