Flow More~Force Less - This is my fifth CD of 2009, after two double
albums. As usual, it's a simple guitar and vocal recording. It's simple, but not
free to record this way. Download any or all of the songs free, but if you like
them, please consider leaving me a tip. The majority of the money I make from my
music goes into making more music. Every album contains some of my favorite
songs and hopefully some of yours!
Song Titles:1. By The Stars 2. Grateful For The Shovel* 3. In My
Light 4. I Don't Care What You Call Me* 5. Deliver Me 6. Hell Yes 7. Flow
More~Force Less 8. Hot Enough* 9. Loner* 10. Naked 11. Scarred For
Life 12. Finders Keepers 13. Too Much Food 14. Nothing At All 15. It's Too Late

Undiscovered ~ Part One -This is my second double album song collection of 2009. As with the last one--("Maybe Nothing's Wrong")--Part One is more energetic and topical, Part Two is more mellow and personal. The recordings are simple, just me and guitar, but they're still costly for me to produce. My albums hardly ever break even, so any donations are most appreciated!
Song Titles:1. Undiscovered 2. Three legged dog 3. Some Damage Here 4. I Love Other People's Kids
5. WWJD? 6. Surprise, Surprise* 7. Drinking Music 8. We're The Losers 9. Start Right Now 10. Daddy Wants A Touchdown 11. Too Much Weed 12. Didgeridon't* 13. Young And Free 14. Hey Check It Out

fit. They'll just have to go on the next one!

Terms of Surrender ~ Part One - From the end of 2006 and well into 2007, I experienced a major burst of songwriting inspiration. Over 20 songs in less than a year. I said this about Plan B but it's true again:
These are some of my favorite and in my opinion, strongest songs.
There were too many to fit on one CD, so I've split the project
into two. Part One is more upbeat and topical. Part Two is
more relaxed and introspective. All of the songs feature
more poetic license, metaphor, and imagination than my past
work. They're all "true," but less literally so.
Song Titles: 1. Come Down Here 2. Gravity's Bitch* 3. Save Your Breath 4. You Got Me All Right 5. Ten Good Days 6. Listen to Me 7. Don't Fake It 8. Waking Up 9. The Top of the World 10. If There Was a Wall 11. Go On Home 12. Look Nowhere 13. You Can Play Now (songs with a * contain adult language) |

TURN THE CORNER - This is another solo performance-just me and guitar-recorded in 1991. It remains one of my all-time favorite recordings and contains some of my favorite songs, many of which I still sing today. (Originally longer, I had to trim 2 songs to get it to fit on an 80 minute CD! ) A musical diary of one relationship that allowed me to "Turn the Corner" on a long standing and difficult pattern.

DON'T GET SWEPT - I recorded this album in 1990 with my friend and musical partner Victor Cummings. Victor played mandolin and electric guitar, sang harmony vocals and added multiple keyboard tracks. It was by far our best selling album. Definitely in the pop vein, the songs explore the grey area between being friends and lovers, the pain of love and loss, and the joys of being single.
Song Titles: 1. Don't Get Swept 2. In the Grey 3. Dance 4. Do it Now 5. Free 6. Marry Somebody 7. If She Knows 8. Ready 9. Forever 10. Life After Love 11. Together Alone 12. Silhouette 13. L.W.S.T.D. |
