This is blues inspired, slow yet heavy rock!

I'M STILL THERE

Definitely a ME style tune with explosive peaks and mellow walks between.
I had trouble coming up with a name for this,
that's how it got its name : )

Nothing More

I've been working on an old 60's psychedelic Yardbirds tune called "Glimpses" which is in Drop D, where I drop the fat E down to a D note. There are some very dark chords that can be achieved in this tuning.
I've temporarily put the Glimpses project on the shelf in favor of an original that I call “Lost In Time”, you gotta be to be lost in time to do something psychedelic, right?
I’ve utilized some newer instruments that I have acquired this winter. The Alesis drum pads are famous for sounding real. The Ibanez Artist is ballistically present here along with my vintage pro-line Ibanez saber, and I threw in some electric mandolin complete with speed picking. If you don’t listen to the whole six plus minutes, you will miss the sweet mandolin outro.

Lost In Time

This is a mix of punk and psychedelic, what I like to refer to as the magic psychedelic center. A haunting backwards guitar solo with a bass line that is equal.

APRIL

Perhaps I was influenced by Mr. Cash, since I do have a small collection of his material. This does have the freight train beat, mandolin and lots of guitars and a sweet outro. I still think it is between bluegrass and country, maybe . . .

FARM FRESH

I do not usually do this type of music but enjoy playing and recording it.   Growing up, I listening to the mighty zeppelin and their acoustic songs which have inspired me.
I went down to a nearby wetland in Battle Ground, Washington, USA and recorded live frogs for this.

Willy The Frog

One of the best I have done, imo. I really like psychedelic blues and psychedelic grunge.

Separation Anxiety

This is grunge/punk/psychedelia, exactly the kind of music I try to create. hope you enjoy it because it's complicated : )

It's Complicated

Sounds like "punked out" (oh I get it!)but doubtfully punk, just snappy strange rock with a bit of a blues influenced break, then . . . BOOM!

Punk Doubt

Fast Guitars and fast Cars!
As a young man, I owned a Boss 302 Mustang, the one pictured.
this is kind of a Satch style tune.

The Boss

It's different, but it's rock! - has a bit of punk in it ; )
