The song 'Homeless Guitar' was written and recorded by 38 Special on their 1997 Album 'Resolution'. I understand it as a song about a busker travelling the world with his 'homeless guitar'.

I tried to keep it simple, at least compared to others of my Garageband-Corona-Songs 😇

The Song Foreign Lady was written by Gwyn Pfaeffli-Cude in the 80ies. She often joined the band "FoolHouse" for backing vocals. Originally American she was married to a Swiss who brought her to Aefligen Switzerland, where she was very unhappy, feeling locked in and not welcome. 

So she wrote this song on her acoustic guitar and gave me a tape-copy. The song followed me through the years and finally I found the time to make an arrangement for a rockband. Unfortunately Gwyn died after a long illness a few years ago. Hope she now found the place she was looking for.

Working too Hard was written by Steve Van Zandt and recorded by Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes on their 1991 album Better Days.

I recorded the song on my MacMini using Garageband. The typical 'Asbury Jukes Horns' are replaced by three tracks of my beefed up Epiphone Les Paul Studio (🧡🎸The GuitarHorns 🎸🧡).

While Delbert Mc Clinton is known for writing such songs as Emmylou Harris’ “Two More Bottles of Wine,” one of his most popular songs is one he didn’t write himself, “Every Time I Roll the Dice.” was written by Nashville writers Troy Seals and the late Max D. Barnes, and recorded for McClinton’s 1992 album "Never Been Rocked Enough".

"Long As I Can See the Light" is a song by American rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival, from the album Cosmo's Factory. John Fogerty stated that the song is "about the loner in me. Wanting to feel understood, needing those at home to shine a light so that I can make my way back." That's it 🎸😀🎸

A Lynyrd Skynyrd song about a singer looking back ... life could actually be worse.

Bought me a baritone and a 12-string guitar that do a nice job here.

I'm a guitar player from Berne Switzerland. In 2021 I celebrated my 50th year on stage. I've been playing in Swiss Bands for the whole of my life e.g. Yours Truly, RockZirkus, FoolHouse, Up in Smoke and for 25 years with my buddy Buddy Dee & the Ghostriders. Sometimes as a pro, most of the time as a semi-pro. 

I started recording at home during the corona-lockdown in spring 2020. I use Garageband, Logic and a lot of my guitars, pedals and basses. Recently I bought me a midi-keyboard. So the only instrument I don't play myself is the drum.

I'm still practicing to find out about all the possibilities Garageband and Logic have to offer and - though I've been recording with my bands - still trying to find out what "producing" is about 😃. 

So play it loud ... and thanks for listening.
