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...
