HEAR THE PINE TREES HUM

This is the song "Ballad of the Spanish" that accompany's Sylvia Barnards Novel "Rhubarb ,Strawberries and Willows"
Lyrics and music by Ron Whitman and Sylvia Barnard

Ballad of the Spanish River

I watched in horror as everybody did when the planes hit the twin towers on 9/11 .As I watched the tributes this past weekend It struck me that many have never moved an inch since that day. How hard it would be for me to hear that news ,having no warning.Its not just reserved for the tragedy of 9/11 but any sudden unexpected loss. This song kinda just wrote itself when I was overcome by the grief the families and loved ones must have felt on that day we all dred. This song is a kinda tribute to anyone who has been through the darkness of loss.God Bless

PICTURES ON MY PHONE

This is my only political statement this election.When historians look back at this time in history they will call it the "Age of the Corporation" banks and corporations have made everything about profit. No more moral values , no helping out by paying their fair share of taxes etc.....Sooo as a songwriter in the shadow of the greats that wrote protest songs before me here goes...

THE CROOKS DOWN ON BAY STREET

Hot off the presses , just finished this one, kinda my comment on some off the stuff going on around us today.

THROW THE HATE AWAY

This one goes out to all my fellow musicians who play one nighters and have been out of work for the Pandemic ( features Larry Barrio on the harp)

Living the Dream

Quit Booze about 26yrs ago , quitting was the best thing I have ever done.Its been the source of many songs , here's another. Keep coming back.

IT WAS MY LAST CALL

With all the pressure from social media , Parents, Teachers  and Peers. Sometimes its easy to forget who we are.

BE YOUR OWN BEST FRIEND

Songwriters have a duty(I feel)to protest in song when oppression and hate rear their ugly heads. What is happening in Ukraine is horrific and the World needs to say so.Please listen to and share this song as a way of showing Tyranny that its not going to Last.

Why Do The Children Have To Die

Its time for reflection and change, we have to quit looking at our screens without question

ITS GOTTA CHANGE

This is an album of original songs I recorded at my home Studio (with the exception of  SING HALLELUJAH, BALLAD OF THE SPANISH, LIVING THE DREAM, BACK UP IN THE SKY and  WHERE I COME FROM) WHICH WERE RECORDED AT PLR STUDIOS IN AZILDA.
