We’re closed now Keep off My land The plains turn to sand That’s what the wire said I hear trains coming Smoke in the sky Lines in the sand That’s what the wire said Ghosts of voices Chant numbers and code Steel lines in the sand…

This a prayer given to St. Gertrude which I put to music a few years ago. If said devoutly it will free 1,000 souls from purgatory. Purgatory is where we go to get "cleaned up" if we aren't quite ready to be with God. Eternal Father, I offer…

This a prayer about St. Anthony of Padua by St. Bonaventure. Anthony is my middle name, named after this great saint.

This is a prayer of the Catholic tradition which I put to music. the guitar is in drop D tuning.

This about St. Joseph, the foster father of our Lord. Though St. Joseph was human and like an other man, he was still so far ahead of all of us in his relationship with God and in how he saw the world through God's eyes, not his own…

im just a nudist with no park/ just feel my way round in the dark/hiding under smiles/is a world dangerous with anger/discomforts when felt youd like to disengageyer/responsibility to a mindful existence/ know i cant have just one....

Title track from AMUC's 2013 RPM album. Probably the closest thing to a 'rock' track we've done this year. 5/11/13 - Uploaded a better mastered version of it. I've been fiddling with the mix over the course of a few weeks. 5/13/13…

Gene has done a superb job with the music and the mix ....i had the easy job of singing it...bought back a lot of memories of youth and Motorbikes hoe you enjoy as much a s we did doing it..........

Maybe I missed a career scoring for no budget spaghetti westerns, because this is what this reminds me of. Done live a couple weeks ago with the Taylor and a floor full of toys and loopers.

An edit from a short live set.

This was inspired by some recordings of people's dreams on the Olympia Dream Phone site (http://olympiadreamphone.tumblr.com/).

One of the first songs I wrote for "Burning Wood (the Bonfire Sessions)", and one of the last to be completed, Sam lends her incredible vocal talents to this sunny-day driving song. LIFE IS GOOD Windows down, my baby by my side Life is…

I heard Fort Bigwater by Wildgeas Music this afternoon and it struck a chord and some lyrics came to mind...so here they are...Thanks Wildgeas for letting play.........

Written and recorded in a couple of hours late one night. I pick up the telephone and dial the number I run down the street I don't mind the thunder I can get no answer Can't go back to my slumber I turn the corner slip and fall I hit…

A beautiful song by our fellow Canadian Bruce Cockburn. Guitars by Dave Berry Vocals and Moog synth by Sandy Gritt

Trying, and failing, to get through the last Pink Floyd song that means something to me. Sorry. ;(

'm doing a course in Mandarin Chinese and mamahuhu is one of my favourite words. It means so-so (literally horsehorsetigertiger); "not so good". In this lyric I just allowed myself to whine about my situation; get it over with. I like the harmony…

This RPM Challenge album had a bit of a ying-yang vibe to it. Compare "Marbles" to "Constellations" and "Fisher In The Sky" to "Tied By The Lies". This wasn't planned - it just sort of happened.

Written & Recorded: Feb 6, 2011 DADGAD, Capo III

I had been listening to the new Massive Attack album for a few weeks, and I was initially trying to mimic some of the sounds I heard on there - especially from the songs "Splitting the Atom" and "Girl I Love You." But, then somehow the whole thing…

A quick little indulgence. Got a new toy this week (valhalla shimmer). Just had to totally overuse it. Now to eat some chocolate.

Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…

A 12-string guitar instrumental in drop D tuning.

this song is about entering the space of friends, brothers, loved ones.... it's about entering their sadness, their joy, their pain. Journeying along side those I love and finding out that so often I fall so short. This song is about the letting…
