Had written this one many years ago. I had it recorded originally in a different key and with different instrumentation but it I just was not happy with it. I deleted the original lyrics for the chorus and added a bridge section and lyrics. I…
The core of the music is heavily inspired by Joni Mitchell. Its been spinning around for years in my head so hearing this song finally recorded feels good.
This is an ode for a good friend of mine that had took his own life at the end of last year. I was in the midst of writing some other songs and it stopped me in my tracks. I just wrote basically how I felt about this tragic ending to a very special…

Did this many years ago. It came together very quickly. There are know synths, all guitars and backwards vocals, sped up vocals, detuned vocals.....whacked sounds. I wrote the lyrics on the spot. I love its deep personal message...lol!

I took an old track that was a cover of Hear my train and dropped the vocals and added some new electric guitar tracks. I had just upgraded my recording setup and was testing some hardware and software when I did this. It has a punchy lil guitar…
Oh yet another nostalgic blast from the past. I found this unbelievable backing track surfing the web some years ago. I usually never use backing tracks because they usually suck bad . But this one is like having mitch and noel at your side. I…

Yeah you know what it is that I want
Oh you knew, didn't you, before I did?
How many times did you wonder whether I would dare?
Oh never mind...

Somebody told me what the lover man said
And man did it turn out to be so true
If you take it
And you break it
You break that girls heart in two…

With My Sister Kathy Bores
Last Waltz Of The Evening
The last waltz of the evening
Last dance of the night
I’m making the most of each beat of my heart
Music plays and I’m holding you so tight
Hard to see it come to an end
But it’s going to…
Here's the Classic from Boston from that time when my locks were flowing and i was 3stone lighter....with speed Demon Gene doing the music and yours truly trying his best on the vocals...hope you enjoy as much as we did doing it.....
We played this song a bit different from the record. More heavy, we recorded a live rehearsal and added some vocal tracks. Recorded in L.A. by Brian Clark
So come down, and fade away,
The lights are still hanging from last holidays.
And the place in the dark, we'd occupy,
Is leaving my heart, feeling nullified.
So slow down, and walk with me,
Dark empty lanes, under heavy leafless trees…
Good song here. I dig your vocals and the distant vocal. I want the drums and band to kick in and bash away with that guitar riff. I still like the way its presented here. :)
