Ok, so I've uploaded three new songs - demos - which still need work and higher quality recordings. They were recorded as I wrote them so, needless to say I think I can improve on them.
Lullaby Brown was wriiten for one of my dear friends Posie, after her husband underwent heart bipass surgery. The aftermath, and adjustments to the lifestyle change kind of got to him. Posie would vent to me about her frustrations. But all I could think about were the days leading up to the surgery, when my dear friend looked absolutely terrified she might lose her husband - her best friend. After one of these venting session, I came home and wrote this song and recorded the version I've uploaded here. It's written from Posie's perspective pretty much based entirely on those conversations we had before the surgery. I made a CD for Posie and played it for her the next day. She has since played it for her husband Barry, who is by the way, one of my biggest "fans". He loved the song and almost two months after the surgery, things are starting to get back to normal for them. I thank them for letting me peek into their lives for a little bit of inspiration. You have to find it where you can.
The other two songs I've uploaded - I Don't Need A Dozen Roses and No Answer - as usual are taken from my own life about my own failed relationship. Jeez. It's almost been a year since we broke up. But oh lordy the songs have been comeing ever since.
Don't forget Ann Wilson released her new solo album Hope & Glory. It is an amazing work of art.
Take Heart,
