LET'S GO! - I wanted to start off this project with an up-tempo
Rock-A-Billy tune. I also wanted to keep the lyrics as simple as
possible. I did the bass, drum pgm, guitars and vocals for this.
Many thanks to Carl and Dave Ayotte "The Sibling Rivalry Horns," for
their great sax work on this one.

FISHIN' HOLE- (A BLUES GUITAR BOOGIE)
Originally Fishin' Hole was a novelty song with
filthy lyrics. Somewhere along the line I decided to
make it an instrumental instead. Now I can play it
anywhere without offending anyone.

REAL GOOD DAY- This is a song I wrote one bright
and sunny morning in Austin Texas. It was 6AM
and the birds were singing, so I decided to put
some birds in the recording. I don't know how to
classify it, except to say that its a happy song.
This one is for my brother Don. Recently
re-recorded with clarinet and ukulele added.

STARTIN' ALL OVER AGAIN - I wrote the 1st verse
when I was 17 years old, sitting in a field at
sundown. I finished it 30 years later. There's a lot
of my life in this song, and it's also a kind of prayer.

THERE FOR YOU -
Just Vocals and guitar on this one. I was going
to add more instrumentation to it, maybe I still
should, but I wanted to keep a simple song
simple.
This one is for "Mini-Me."

I HATE EVERYBODY
BUT YOU A twisted little rock song.
(and NO, I don't hate everybody)
The guy in the song does.

EVIL RAIN- This song features slide guitar.
(my electric Frankendobro)
I'm also playing a Variax 12 string model on
the left channel, (tuned to G) and Fender
Jazz bass. I wrote this one during a very
dark time which I'm glad is over. Music
always gets you through those tough times.

HEAVEN - Psychedelic Gospel Music?
Not really.
It's just a song about a dream I had.
There are 18 of me singing on this one.
If you're havin' a tough day this song might help.

THE UKE SONG I wrote this song in Saint
Augustine, Fla, on a beautiful sunny day.
I sat in the sun with my new ukulele...
....meanwhile, back home in Boston, my wife
was shoveling snow.
I had a lot of fun writing this song.
