Another rough cut (just to get it together). The lyrics to this little song were written by my father quite some time ago. It's one of my favorite poems, and I hope I do it justice in song.

The Irish emigrated to England in the decades following the second world war. And one of the jobs they commonly held was laying "hot asphalt" this song chronicles an encounter with an unfortunate policeman who ended up falling into a barrel "full…
12 string improvisation - just a chord progression.
Feel free to use this in something if you'd like - just post a link in the comments here so I can find it.
I don't know the right words
To make a love song for you
I won't live enough days
To wait another one for you
I don't know any way
To make it clearer to you
All the things I don't say
When I don't know what to do
I'll carry this cross
To where…
The softness of your skin
Glistening with sweat
Body Shaking
Run finger down and up again
I hear you screaming out, yeah
I hear you wanting more, yeah
And I want this too
To taste the sweetness of your quivering lips
Caress your naked body with…

Everything I did
In time
You'll understand
Everywhere we've been
In time
You'll understand
Why...
You are not what I want
You are not what I need
You are nothing to me
Long drum solos aren't for everyone - I get it. Just do what many at Grateful Dead concerts did and look at it as an opportunity to go get another beer. On the other hand, if you are the sort of person who cheers at the fireworks show, I hope…
I'm really thinking of renaming the upcoming "Burning Wood... The Bonfire Sessions" album "Stealing Genius." I write something simple, put down some picking at the beginning, some acoustic guitar and some vocals, and send it off to people with…

So a friend of mine sent me over a little acoustic number he was working on and was asking what I could with it. So "Broken" was born. After getting down some vocals and adding a tonne of instrumentation I wasn't really happy with most of the…
This isn't a track per se. I made a video of progress with an instrument and this is the soundtrack. It's something of a mishmash of strange noises. That will come as little to surprise regular listeners.
The instrument is an evolution of my…

Beautiful music for what seems like a senseless event.
A timely post, all nations of the world need to unite against the mindless violence experienced in Paris this weekend.
