Another re-recorded 2014 50/90 song. This one was written on or about July 4th as New England was about to get spanked by Hurricane Arthur. I tend to write about hurricanes a lot. Weird. The guitars here are all Gibson ES-335. The amps…

This song scares me. This song stresses me out. This song confuses me. I could write a song about how messed up this song makes me feel. Is it the best song I've ever written? Not even close. Why then do I insist to myself that it's the…

You can take the red head out of the 80's, but you can't take the 80's out of the red head... I guess. I didn't like anything current when I was growing up during the 80's. Well, almost anything. This one was originally written during the…

This one came really quick as I was working on another, completely different, idea. Lyric wise it's a simple little love song about the love of my life and I sticking it out. Usually I tend to match that type of lyric with something less dumb…

Third of possibly four songs written either just before or during Hurricane Irene's visit to New England. This one seems a little too busy and the mix feels funny, but I think it would be fun to play live if I ever get myself back into a band.
