All you have to do to take your self back to the moment of Bliss is look to the Sky. Smell the rain, close your eyes, still feel the touch and hear the Sigh!

Looking Up At The Moon

Coming from the Heart it was done in an afternoon, passion has always been my best writing tool. For better or worse "A Romantic I'll always be!

Still In Love With You

Song was written around Circa 93 @ my place with Preston Hunt. We later recorded it @ TMPS with the assistance of Stan Ginsel.

William Ramsey

Should Have Known Better

I was invited to a Studio 1 night so not knowing if they wanted my assistance,so I got warmed up and put on a jacket and there we where. So I stepped in and was invited to sing a track as a scratch track for someone coming in from Houston. But they liked mine so much they kept it. This is a story I will safe for another time.

I Don't Want To Go On

Came home to create something different, from an innocent time when people would share their troubles hoping to forget about them.

Dance To Forget

I wrote this song after moving to Texas, as I was missing someone I dearly Loved. She did visit me and saw me play with a new band in a new place, she saw I was doing well and even though she shared my feelings she was from a different social circle. The pleasant valley type of spoiled that didn't know what roughing it really meant or work either. It didn't matter to me, as they say love is blind and so was I. My best friend talked to her while I was gone playing a Gig and he asked her to "please, don't hurt him". She wouldn't move with me and it did break my heart, but it wouldn't have happened I wouldn't have written this song. RIP honey, you stayed with me whether you knew it or not. That's what love is,eternal.

Laurel

1 of a set of 1st recordings when I got to Atx, the Guitarist is my best friend of Antellis. The women didn't matter all they wanted was to put a Bird in a Gilded Cage.  It wasn't even worth it, except for this songs creation. Now that I will thank her for, but only for the therapy to help remove her from my Soul.

Someone To Perform For

There is always 1 guy in your group who hits on everyone's girlfriend and has to have everything his way. After putting up with it for a long time, it all came together 1 night with the right trashy girl that someone pretended to be with and he had to have her and we were just lucky she had an STD! Did he learn anything, who knows? Did we laugh, oh Hell yes we did a lot! People can come from money, but they can't buy character or class or a good reputation. They have to earn it and good luck with that!

You Got It

When I finally got to my destination it only took a few minutes to write it all down, I'd only been thinking of it for 8 hours! Rumor has it a Rival band to the one I was working with would play this song when they got back to town. Their drummer was also a Cool Arrow, we had a lot of fun recording it. Perhaps 1 day the guitarist/studio owner will invite us back over to do more than  just clean up the place. Time to get back to work, I just hope it's the kind I love not the type I just have to do to survive. Let's go Sven A, you started this and we're not done yet. Great solo's by the way!

Wake Up And Be Aware    Mac Diamond & The Cool Arrows

I wrote this at a time when all I could see were people using each other for the wrong reasons and I never thought I'd find an honest soul out there. All the music was sequenced accept for the Electric guitar parts played by my best friend who always seemed to know where I was going musically. There is another part of the song you may think is an Acoustic guitar, but it is actually a keyboard/sampler. The song is not just about 1 person, but a group of people that I began to recognize and it really saddened me to think that I could begin to see the shallowness in some people. Later on I was not immune to it myself, unfortunately.

You Might Be The 1

Another late night track, that was so much fun that we just couldn't stop. The Best sounding goofy song that was quick and easy.Those were easy lyrics , the whole song was done in a couple of hours.

Eaten And A Runnin

Wrote in Ar, between shifts am and pm, it's another one I've thought while I was driving around my favorite car I ever had. Boy it was a lot of Fun and it handled so well. Low to the ground and drove like a dream, the song is about more than the car. How you felt while you were in it and time was kind of suspended. But to remember to think about the future as well, time to think,breathe create, reflect.

Now or Never

All keys, except for the Electric guitar played by my good friend "Antellis". It's a metaphor, I'm sure you'll figure it out.

Inside The Circle

Last Chance 1

Wrote this for my Mother for Mother's Day, I thought she had already received enough cards and this was a great deal more personal. I thought it was the best present I could give her! Besides my granddaughter Alexandra!
