Simply put: This is a song about living your dream rather than trying to fit the expectations of others. And you're on a timeline, you don't live forever so, get on with it. |

This is a down and dirty solo recording of acoustic guitar (DADGAD tuning)and vocal. Have you ever had someone break up with you and then they felt bad, like guilty and they wanted to be sure you would be okay? "Can we still be friends?" They maybe do it with you one or 2 more times but, it's weird. This song is ....well, like "Screw That!". |

Oh come on, you already know this one. I just do it more up-tempo than B.B. actually, a lot more up-tempo. |

This is a very cool, seductive, very urban sounding blues tune. I love to watch the women dance to this one. The room temp. definitely goes up. |

This is a love song that lazily drifts along....like when you're high. The slippery fretless bass line from Randy Plowe is a hook that pulls you in and together with congas and the other hand percussion (supplied by Mikey Carden) set this up in a very nice, "easy to make love to" groove without being down or too slow. It's a moderate tempo. Dave North is the master of understatement supplying just enough electric rhythm fills to make the song vibrant without interupting the overall easy groove of the song. The vocal style used reminds me a little of Roy Orbison or Chris Isaak. This is a great tune to just stop and take a lazy moment to think about the one you love or better yet, to share with that person. |

This has a nice steady groove. One of my favorite parts is the violin lead. Vocally, it reminds me of Springsteen somewhat. |

A slow rock power ballad that starts out quietly and builds to a dynamic finish. Jericho's Wall is a song about the walls people build between them with "stones of words" and, there's just nothing left to say. |

This tune is about a soldier in the fray over in Iraq. His cause his noble. He expects we'll win but, he wants to come home and get a way from that hell-hole. |

Kind of a Neil Young sound here with Fremont John playing solo acoustic guitar and vocal. A haunting melody about nighttime sounds in Key West during spring break. |
