Duration: 3 min 8 s
Description: I was sitting at home recovering from surgery and decided to try recording a raw version of this great song written by Josh Turner and released in 2003. It spent 30 weeks on the Billboard Country Charts.

Good work Tony, the raw approach brings its own gifts

A hopeful reverence in your vocals Tony. Godspeed on your recovery.

Great message Tony.  Thanks for singing this for us!

I will be singing this all week , great !

Beautiful recording - spiritually fulfilling.

Had another blast of this one Tony , really great !

The vortex that we all have been drawn to. The bottomless pit that you cannot taste or touch. The wheel turns with or without you... You know what the wheel is as well as I do.

The Wheel

Low blow, slow glow
Mellow bellow 
Callow fellow
Hallo fallow gallows


Be good, munchkins

I made this scratch track to practice the vocal...

Ah, those hot summer nights when it felt alright
Seems like yesterday
With a bottle of booze and your platform shoes
Off to dance the night way

And you ride through town with the t-tops down
And the wind blowing fast and cool
And you’re revved up hot in the parking lot
Nowhere to go and nothing to do

It’s the summer of dreams when you’re seventeen
There's no way that you can't win
Try new things, spread your wings
You don’t think about the summer’s end

Music’s loud in this lively crowd
You’re dancing around the room
With the strangers you know and the friends that you don’t
Then you just turn around and they’re all gone

Where do the dancers go, when they’re not dancing anymore
Where do the dancers go when their feet aren’t on the dance floor
To the underground? To the atmosphere?
Do you stay around, do you disappear
To the great unknown, where the wild winds blow,
It’s a short ride here but a long way home

Ah, those hot summer nights when it felt alright
What did we know
Now you lie in bed the music in your head
but you can't go back to long ago

when the dance is done and the lights come on
We all need a place to shed our skin
Place like home just to rest our bones till the night comes ‘round again

Where Do The Dancers Go (Acoustic)

Midnight Mass

This is another one I wrote for my old bluegrass band, Cornbread. I'm playing mandolin and singing lead, the brothers Jon and Matt Check are on the guitar and banjo, respectively, Doug Fitzsimmons is on the snare drum and vocals, and Brad Barron rounds us out on bass. Matt is still playing music, too, and you can find his stuff on BandCamp and Spotify. He's a really talented multi instrumentalist, as well, and is playing mostly guitar these days. I wrote this song when I was in love, if that isn't apparent, and it's all true.

Oh My

This track is a tribute to the Great Australian Aboriginal artist Albert Namatjira.
