Another low-fi recording from around 2014, although the song itself was written in 2001 as a reaction to the collapse of the World Trade Center. Quite what my lyrics have to do with that terrible day, I'm not too sure now, but I like the track, so here it is. 

Lyrics
Traffic lights are changing daily
Up and down this fine, fine land
But there’s no one crossing over
‘less they’re holding somebody’s hand

Fear and consternation baby
Are gripping this fine, fine land
No one dares to watch the TV  
‘less they’re holding somebody’s hand

I saw you shy, I saw you try to hide
I saw you hesitate, unable to decide …  
To come inside … please come inside

Oh Fat Betty caught the night train
Though it wasn’t even in her plan
They found her dead inside the train wreck
Holding onto somebody’s hand

I saw you shy, I saw you try to hide
I saw you hesitate, unable to decide …  
To come inside … please come inside

Traffic lights are changing daily
Up and down this fine, fine land
But there’s no one crossing over
‘less they’re holding somebody’s hand

Stars In The Sky

This is a song that I came up with on the electric piano and shared with the rest of the guys. . When I sent it to them, I had a rough bass on there that sounded like Lust for Life. Ken came up with a killer and appropriate beat, which, if you can picture Lust For Life, included a lot of accentuated bass kicks. So, Josh took and went with that, and came up with a funky bass line. Ken and he kicked it back and forth a few times till they linked up. Then I added some funky ass organ and trippy retro synth to spice it up.
  Then it was time to send it to the guitarist. Tez laid down some smoking lead solos throughout, with his signature fiery guitar tone and amazing licks. Then Stephen funked it up even more with a fonky-ass wah guitar track. 
  Ken produced and mixed this one for us, and what an excellent job he did, too. This was so much fun to create. We all hope you enjoy listening to our jam as much as we did playing it.

No Way Out

Another track inspired by my re-reading of "Foundation" by Isaac Asimov. 
Somewhere in the remote, dark periphery of the galaxy a second empire is emerging.
I revisited this track 13.01.24 and decided to remix and remaster, mainly to add more drama to the percussion and add more punch to the production.

Cyrus the Great — The Eternal King

Cyrus the Great, the founder of the Persian Empire, is remembered not only as a mighty conqueror but as a just and visionary ruler. He united nations with wisdom and fairness, earning the title of "The Father of Human Rights."

His legacy lives on through the Cyrus Cylinder, an ancient inscription written in cuneiform, often regarded as the world’s first declaration of human rights. In it, Cyrus proclaimed freedom of religion, the right to return to one’s homeland, and respect for all cultures.

To this day, the spirit of Cyrus stands as a timeless symbol of justice, freedom, and eternal greatness.

ok...

I've been on Soundcloud for six years now and it's been great exploring the work of other artists.  There is so much generosity of spirit on this platform, it's just what you need when most of your music is made solo. 

I started out playing classical and Spanish guitar, then took up flamenco to ease myself away from the confines of musical notation. As a result, Latin rhythms often creep into my music. 

A friend introduced me to steel string and electric guitars just a few years ago and I still find the scope they bring dizzying... but what fun!
