Found an old, old one from the vaults ....... I wanted to do a sort of call and response ..... Where was Aretha when I needed her .......

Second of two songs on the album about trying to be a better person. The first was about people not trying, this is about struggling (and kinda failing) to be a better person than you have been. Slide parts courtesy of Gary... Don't think for…

I write letters, but I don't send them and they go unanswered. I take them out and rewrite them, picking up the words and clarifying the meanings. I wait in hope that a reply will come someday. I continue the conversation when it's long over…

Take me back to ole Virginia Lord, he's pluggin' in a mic. I dig the cheesy Farfisa Rotary patch...... Here's a song to sing a fairy tale no mountain high or oceans to sail no darken nights in the belly of a whale no hammer's throne or red…

Travel back with us to 1962…the Place, the shores of the River Mersey. Umbrella Book is a song about a book….eh, I’m not gonna explain it to y’all. Slap on a pair of drainies and some Italian heeled boots and you’re on your way to some nostalgic…

Well, it IS! lyrics for my Italian friends: We're gonna be there in your wake mending the seams when they start to break make you do what you said that you would and other words that rhyme with good once so close why let it go, baby…

from the album “Savior of the World” with Daniel Jordan on vocals Keith Howell on drums Robert Rebeck mixing and mastering Looks like the clouds Are being blown away Looks like the sky Is slowly turning grey And i wanna know Why you…

just a basic blues song with feeling

it is midnight of halloween. it blinks 12 at the landfill. the electric blue light awakens the dying electronics. a cracked blackberry dances slowly with an unrecognized newton, palm to palm. woofers gather around the hammond organ to boost the…

A song about possibilities and desires. The sound your heart makes when it's been looking too long. (all recordings are a work in progress)

After Shakespeare's sonnet, My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips' red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. I have seen roses damask'd, red…

I spent 15 hours composing and playing this or, I should rather say, this is the sole product of 15 hours of sitting with Live & my piano. I think there is the kernel of something good in it (and I intend to explore that later) but the…

Recorded Oct 2010. It was meant to be a full band pop-rock song. But I started overdubbing on the original exploratory demo I'd done to work out the arrangement (with no click track). I kept coming back to it intending to start afresh... but…

Perfect Storm T.Mokbul 2014 Lover you were more than chance. Set down roots so deep in romance. Now with child..... So they dance..... Oh Lover won't you feel the rain? Lord has sent down ease for our pain Can you feel? What was Love…

Here is my second short excursion with the electric guitar and a jaded Reg.............

Truth Is Stranger Than Fiction ---

Returning to an earlier time when things were simple.

Vaisvil sent me this great Blues tune and so i threw it down the cellar and Reg jumped all over it with his point of view on love being a Four letter word.......... FOUR LETTER WORD (Lyrics) Love  oh Love it's not just a four letter word…

Lyrics influenced by a conversation with a friend whose daughter was in a really bad way. Kind of set the mood for large parts of the challenge for me this year. New version uploaded 12 Dec 2010.
