This song began when I asked the rest of the guys if they'd be willing to put together a couple of songs for my father as a Christmas present. My dad is from West Virginia, and I was born there, too. The original version featured my son, Marshall, singing the lead with me. Hearing his grandson sing a song about West Virginia really meant a lot to my dad. Of course, everyone was enthusiastically generous in giving their time, effort, and skill to my family for the holiday. This song also has special meaning for JJ and Ken in relation to their fathers, as well. JJ's dad has had a rough year with his health. He also is a musician who inspired and encouraged JJ to play music. His dad also likes this song, so it was fun for him to present it to him, as well. Ken, who's father never really supported his decision to be a rock-and-roller, loves this version of the song we did, and made Ken know how proud of him he is in regard to it, which really meant a lot to Ken, too. Another cool connection Ken has to this song is that whilest attending elementary school, he was in the same school choral cohort with the legendary Maria Carey. He actually sang this song with her when they were kids. Also, we feel like we should acknowledge Artur's dog, even though Artur isn't in on this one, his dog, Waldek, loves country music and responded enthusiastically to this one.

  The story of the song itself is a little convoluted. After I asked for everyone's help, Ken laid down a rudimentary beat, to which I started the tonal part with the bass. Stephen added the guitar and banjo soon after, and I added the mandolin shortly after that. JJ inserted his piano around this time, too. We pretty much had it working enough for me and my son to sing it for my dad. Tez mixed that version perfectly suited to the occasion. 

  After presenting my dad with the present, it sat for about a month, until we asked Mark if he'd get in on it, too. Mark not only sang it better than Mr. Denver, but also arranged it so there is an instrumental break now. He also added the guitar lick at the very beginning and the auxiliary percussion throughout. Ken took the opportunity of having Mark's great vocals to sing against to add his cunning harmony to Mark's cunning harmonies. Then Mark, being the perfectionist that he is, noticed that the slide part was missing from the second verse. So, I added it. Mark also mixed this version, with Stephen doing some mastering at the end. 

  We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed putting this personally meaningful piece together.

Lyrics:

If you feel tired and can't find any pleasures
Unable to see how things really should be

You need a long break
To heal your heartache
And for Gods sake don't blame yourself
Take a deep breath
A good rest
To regain strength to get through the day

If you don't know how to love
And don't know how to live
If you feel split in two
And have nothing to give

You need a long break
To heal your heartache
And for gods sake don't blame yourself
Take a deep breath
A good rest
To regain strength to get through the day

If family and friends see you as only strong
They may not be aware of
That you struggle all day long

And need a long break
To heal your heartache
And for Gods sake don't blame yourself
Take a deep breath
A good rest
To regain strength, to get through the day..

To be able to help others
You have to help yourself
Don't be ashamed
To stop up and say

That you need a long break
To heal your heartache
And for gods sake don't blame yourself
Take a deep breath
A good rest
To regain strength, to get through the day..

So take a long break
To heal your heartache
And for Gods sake don't blame yourself
Take a deep breath
A good rest
To regain strength to get through the day...

Take A Long Break   W/PJ Project

The Sanctuary Garden

I wrote this about 4 years ago whilst cycling into a wild headwind. One thing led to another in my thoughts and out popped a song on a topic that I actually wanted and intended to write about at some point. There it was, that wicked wind!
I have this feeling that Scientists in the very near future will be saying 'I told you so' when it is all too late.

Before The Warming

Cup and ring marks were created in the neolithic and early bronze age. I photographed these in Kilmartin Glen. No one knows what they mean, but there are many theories. They are often in places with inspiring views and on rocks previousy marked with naturally created, linear grooves (for example, glacial scoring). I like the idea that they were created as markers in camping grounds where groups could meet for trade, romance and ceremony... like a prehistoric Glastonbury!
