Name: Spirit Of The Basin by Kirby Jonas in Historical Notes
Duration: 4 min 35 s
Description: In January 2022, my friend John A. Wagner past from the paradise of Sand Wash Basin, Colorado, to a land where horses will always run wild and free, unthreatened by overpopulation, starvation, disease or mankind. Somewhere in the vast land of Sand Wash Basin, the great pinto stallion Picasso also lay to rest. This song is for the two of them.

Historical Notes

Have you ever gazed upon an old, abandoned house, getting close to falling over, and wondered what that house would say if it could talk? Have you ever wondered what dreams and memories that old house might harbor? So have I. That's why I wrote this song.

No matter what else you may find me doing, I will be on the back of a horse until the day I die ... and, I pray, even beyond.

I'll Ride Until I Die

I can only say that it was time to write a new song--this one about a cowboy who has been gone for far too long from the ranch he called home.

I Can't Go Home

My tribute to the old Alexander house, and all those beautiful old houses out there that once were someone's dream

Baby, come back

Former cop, retired city firefighter, author of forty novels, recording artist of 213 songs ... so far. I have a long way yet to go!
