I tried to catch some of the defiance, optimism and spirit of being young as told through the voice of someone who no longer is!!!

This is one song of mine I hope will some day be played at someone's wedding reception!!!

They broke up once before and he was miserable--and now that they're back together he wants to keep it that way!!!

Done in MIDI Soundtrack/ambient style instrumental. Written & arranged by John Bowen. Featuring the guitar work of Mr. Marc Halikas.

He overheard a couple breaking up--and it sounded a bit close to home for him...

5 string bass guitar solo. Here is me and my 5 string bass, which I really, really like playing despite the pain in my pinky to make those stretches I hear in my mind. The name seems stupid - but way better than STE-018cn. If you can add to…

Playing my wife's seagull and my yech singing Improvised music, lyrics, vocals.

Your lips are inches away but I've been hurt too badly too recently--and the last thing I want right now is to fall in love!!!

Revenge is sweet!!!

A couple looks back nostalgically on the magical moment when they first met.

She was mysterious, gorgeous...and we fell in love immediately...but her parents were against us being together and sent her back to their country, leaving me to search for her forever.

Here's a great way to keep some peace at home!!!

Apologies to John Strings (scored) Session Drummer 3 (no loops, scored) 5 string bass fretless guitar * 2 electric piano Vocals * 2

Is my future just to be....your ancient history?

That's all I am--just another lonely man....

I dedicated this song to my old friend, Ed Begley, Jr. and to all those who are working to make this a cleaner and better place to live!!!

I'll lose control but maybe find love instead....

A hot exterior hides a cold, cold heart....

I've got it all--but the one I love.....

The millionaires are doing just fine, thanks---but the rest of us are barely getting by!!!!
