Here’s a song I wrote in 1978 about looking for a new source of prosperity in my life. I was working in a manual labor job sweating it out, frustrated and feeling I was worthy of something better…like $ from music! This was recorded at Northstar Studios in Boulder came in 3rd place on KBCO’s local music talent show. The #1 and #2 songs were in other genres so mine was really the #1 in the Rock Category. Lead vocals were shared with Marty Malia, the main lead singer in my band at the time.

NOrthstar Demo

Silver Linin

Song that originated in a sound check on the road and was finished later. Played it live in Boulder Co with the band Leave of Absense so often our fans would sing along with us.  Just a good vibe  song about loving each other in this crazy life  life on the way to a better world someday. Studio crew included Jim Waddell/sax, Larry Thompson/drums, Tom Capek/keys, Milt Muth/bass, Andy Peake/Perc, Bil Hopkins, Ken Andrus on BG's, Bob Burnham/Engineer and co-producer (1984)

Time

Long Way to Paradise

I very early composition that came to me at sunset playing acoustic guitar before a gig in Colorado. Recorded in 1984 and re-recorded in 2012 in this version in Phoenix. Always wanted someone like Lou Rawls to sing this. Studio crew was Jim Waddell/sax, Larry Thompson/drums, Tom Capek/keys, Milt Muth/bass, Andy Peake/Perc, Bob Burnham/Engineer and co-producer

GD's/FullWell

Indigo Twilight

The leader on this might be a little long but wait for it! Partially based on a true story when I was in New Orleans circa 1973. Had an experience with a woman that went from good to bad in reality, but when I wrote this I made it have a more fun outcome with a "twist". Recorded in 1984 as part of my "LA Demo". Had a studio crew: Steve Conn/piano, Larry Thompson/drums, Milt Muth/bass, Andy Peake/Perc, Bil Hopkins, Ken Andrus and Steve Conn on BG's, Bob Burnham/Engineer and co-producer

1984 Demo

Blue Studebaker

On the first songs I wrote in a pop style (for the times) got to record on 24 trk with a the same crack crew as some of these others posted here (Larry Thompson, Milt Muth, Jim Waddell, Andy Peake, Bob Burnham) A lonesome lament meant for BJ Thomas.

You and Yesterday

A song inspired by Joni Mitchell's "Coyote" for rhythmic feel and semi-samba/rock style.  Recorded with the 1st iteration of the Luckey/Sayers Band in Boulder circa 1978. Did a 3 camera video shoot inside Mountain Ears Recording studios synching to the recorded track. (27 yrs old)
