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…

Some shun or dare not partake in the discussion of passing on from this life. Many search for meaning and fanciful places to reside, after their earthly shells have been left behind. This song is sweet reminder that ignoring and falsifying of…

There was a time, when I stood in one place, and time, space, and place... stretched in all directions, and could be walked, or traveled. Returning to here I found, getting on with it, was completely different. After enlightenment, there is the…

I recorded this one to a dimming flashlight on the 25th after a windstorm took out my power. I couldn't see the lyrics anymore so I ad libbed and hummed the rest out. My recording device is battery operated, which is cool.

Cover of Jahn's "Retained Lives" off his 2010 RPM submission. I hope I did it justice.

I had to work with a musican that had a huge ego problem. I finally had to express my frustration with that musician in song. This is a James Brown funk feel with a pop hook.
Uploaded
I really feel that love and compassion are much more important than physical beauty and this song is about that belief. It has a Stevie Wonder R&B feel to it.
Uploaded
Living in Milwaukee and driving throught the ghetto and working with kids from the hood, I felt compelled to tell their story in song. This song is funk like Sly and the Family Stone.

This one is for every woman looking for a good man. It is a blend of R&B and blues. Feels good and sounds good too.
Uploaded
I became fed up with all the half truths and lies that the nationw was told by Bush Jr. and had to put my frustrations to music. The feel of this is New Orleans Blues.

This has a Delta/Muddy Waters feel to it and it was fun to record. The E stands for my daughter's name Ehlona and the A for my wife's name Amy and both the song and my home feel a bit like a train.
