MY TRIBUTE TO SOME OF THE GREAT BANDS AND ARTISTS THAT INFLUENCED MY SOUND.  THEY MIXED BLUES, COUNTRY, GOSPEL, AND ROCK GUITARS IN A TASTY STEW THAT STILL MOVES ME.

PLAY IT A LITTLE BLUESY

An inspirational ballad about lifting up a friend going through depression

I WILL HOLD YOU CLOSE TO ME

AT THE END OF THE DAY

About when your head's trying to convince yourself that a failed relationship's over, but your "heart left hangin'" says it's not over.

HEART LEFT HANGIN' -FULL BAND

My cover of the Carole King classic about loneliness in our transient culture.  Having had my roots in Kansas and Oklahoma, living on the East Coast for 4 years, and living the rest of my adult life in California, I can totally relate.

SO FAR AWAY - ACOUSTIC

Cover of "Little Wonders" by Rob Thomas

Lyrics:
Let it go
Let it roll right off your shoulder
Don't you know?
The hardest part is over
Let it in
Let your clarity define you
In the end
We will only just remember how it feels
Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists and turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These small hours
Still remain
Let it slide
Let your troubles fall behind you
Let it shine
'Til you feel it all around you
And I don't mind
If it's me you need to turn to
We'll get by
It's the heart that really matters in the end
Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists and turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These small hours
Still remain
All of my regret
Will wash away somehow
But I cannot forget
The way I feel right now
In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists and turns of fate
Yeah, these twists and turns of fate
Time falls away
Yeah, but these small hours
And these small hours
Still remain
Yeah, oh, oh
Oh, they still remain
These little wonders
Oh, these twists and turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These little wonders
Still remain

Little Wonders [Cover]

Introspective song of inspiration.  Writing songs is therapy for me.

I'M NEVER GONNA GIVE UP

A ballad about determination to follow the musician's path.

THE ROAD AHEAD

WHO WILL TELL THE CHILDREN

THE SPARK OF LOVE
IGNITES IN ME
WARMING MY HEART
UNEXPECTEDLY
SEEING YOUR FACE
RIGHT BEFORE  ME
MAKES MY HEART RACE
SO RAPIDLY

HOW TO  EXPLAIN
SUCH CHEMISTRY
IS MEETING YOU
OUR DESTINY?

SO HERE WE ARE
WHAT WILL WE DO?
IS THERE A FUTURE
FOR ME AND YOU?  


SPARK OF LOVE

Words & Music by Larry Jack Caldwell.   My metahpor for aging is how Wylie E Coyote dealt with gravity,. As long as he didn't look down, he was innnume to gravity.  As soon as looked down, he was a goner.  I believe my 70s will be the high point of my life in music, life, and love!
