This recording has been through hell, pretty much like I was when I wrote this: It was recorded written and played by me, on a fostex four track. At the time even true love had let me down, and decided its dreams "for" me were more important than…
Wrote this one late evening, during an impromtu outdoor concert on the farm in Oregon. I was sitting on the knoll, at the outer edge of a circle of oaks and maples, looking out over the fields, meadows, and the woods beyond, that formed a natural…
last eve there was a beautiful moon
dancing in a blue black sky
outside my piano room, it called to me
this tune is a one take playful moment, loosely based on the main theme from the 2nd mov of my piano sonata,,, i only toned down about…
You live long enough... you take some real hits. And the only way to get on, is, to, "Pick myself up, walk down the long long road". Lifes real easy when it's all theoretical, but it's never been lived until the theories and philosophies are trashed…
I wrote and recorded this song about five years ago. All vocals are mine. I would like to redo this song and change a few of the lyrics...but here it is in its current incarnation.
I'm singing lead on this. It was recorded to 24 track, 2 inch tape, I'm thinking. I have those somewhere, but they've turned gooey. Sadly, it seems to go into the red during the chorus, but I can't fix that now. I have more stories about the…
warning!!! this is a long 10+ min instrumental
It's a piece about 4 years old that was my first attempt at using synth voices,, I am still looking for a good one,, if anyone knows.
The music itself is a tone poem, loosely dedicated to a children…
As it unwinds it reaches deeply in, like a good massage both relaxes tension, and refreshes and energizes. Thought I wouldn't play to the end, but I did - and played it again! Beautiful.
I'm including this, beacause I want to be able to say, and demonstrate, just what Steve Buzzell, my musical partner and collaborator means to several of the songs that are either here already, or will follow. This is all Steve. In all the songs…
This says so much with the music, can't wait to hear what lyrics you will come up with, the rest of your music has words that fit the instruments so well, each could stand alone, but together really take listener someplace.
Ok, everybody. I hope you can hang in there on this one. Yes it's longer. This is the fruit of Steve and my's first collaboration. He'd heard me do this at a party, got in touch with me, and said, "I'd like to collaborate on this, if you're okay…
Well, hot summer night. Beautiful woman dancing in the moonlight, (the goddesses knew what they were doing, a man doesn't stand a chance against this), knees going weak.... hearts' pounding...head spinning = new song. (Love was already there…
What I love about this and your music generally is from the first note, I am drawn into a world, the words seem to come naturally from the feeling, the music, the instruments. Like the heart had strings and a voice.
This is a feeble attempt to play some classical Spanish guitar. It took two takes, to make one guitar part, haha. I am no Tommy Emmanuel, and that will be obvious when you listen to this one.

closed my eyes to watch the movie in my head with this one... the characters spring right out of the musical narrative effortlessly.
Takes me into my souls cathedral, thank you
You know it's good when you find yourself nodding as in yeah, oh yeah, and want to immediately download and play for friends.
When you've been through hell and are ready to come back - listen to this one for your personal anthem! Great stuff!
A child/parents anthem? Deep to/from the depths of the heart and soul. Beautiful.
Had to download, there will be a bright moon on the lake tonight - and this one will be perfect for the dance of the moonpath on the water
When you can't figure why you want to paint that full moon blue, listen to this and let those standin' still blues move you. Love this!
Hey, honey, keep this one around!
Oh yeah! Wish you were playing next Saturday night near us! Makes me want to get an ice cold one and sway into dancin' with my baby.

Quiet,but takes me oh so deep. Beautiful

Smokin!
Nice guitar work, really grabbed my attention!
Nope, okay I don't know about the sleep thing - just hope you keep at this stuff, because I want to listen to more!
Me too!
Sorry I took so long to listen to this one, with the storms moving in, wish I had a Moon Cloud of my own.

Muy Bueno!
