ADDED-1-23-02 / A soft rock song about good times with good friends. Wasting the day way engulfed in the sunshine, the ocean, the salt air, beer, margarittas and the intoxicating sounds of Jimmy Buffett. Could be compared to late seventies rock by Dan Fogelberg or Jimmy Buffett. |

ADDED-1-23-02 / A medium paced ballad that is a song of love, hope and frustration. For some reason it reminds me of a song that would have come off the album "Lifeline" by Pablo Cruise...I dont know..maybe it's just me...:-)Enjoy! |

ADDED- 1-21-02 / A slow, emotional, tear jerking, love ballad about what else? A broken heart. The song is listed as country but could easily be a crossover love ballad. |

A very romantic love ballad written by myself and an old acquaintance of mine by the name of Jim Martin. This is one of my personal favorites off my first CD and has a very smooth, romantic flute solo perfomed by David Romine. In the style of Dan Fogelberg and Tim Weisberg.

Young Hearts is an up-tempo/middle of the road pop song that will get your feet and soul moving. And despite the melancholy lyrics, that share one side of a relationship that went wrong due to lies and deception, you will find yourself in a very content place at the end of the song. Musically speaking, a clean, crisp open production supplies Young Hearts with the pallet that is needed in order to showcase Jeff's vocal work and David Romine's saxophone talents. Both that shine here. |

An uptempo 80's style rocker reminiscent of The Tubes, Toto or Styx. The title says it all. Life is short, so live each day like it's your last. And take care of yourself, cause no one else will.

A straight ahead pop/rock song that has been compared to REO Speedwagon and Styx. Heartfelt lyrics about honestly trying again and again to find the "girl who understands", but always coming up empty handed.

A beautiful but sad love song about a relationship that didn't work out. Rearranged this could probably be a good country song and I always love singing this one. Dedicated to the memory of Rick Cook.

A catchy r and b flavored song that I wrote for my daughter Ashton. Inspired by a song by Daryl Hall, this song was written "for" her instead of "about" her, in hopes, that she could listen to it as she grows up and always have something to learn from it.

A medium paced, dreamy ballad that was inspired by a song from Elton John. Originally written in 1982 with a more rock and roll arrangement, I lightened it up a bit and gave it a bigger production. Hope you like it.

A very uptempo love song inspired and written about my girlfriend at the time who had an unearthly love for Butterflys. However, as the years have passed I have found that it could be about many women I have known throughout my life. So this one is dedicated to Penny and all the passionate, female free spirits of the world.

Guys, wouldn't you, just sometimes, after buying that girl an unknown number of drinks, hours of (what you think is) charming conversation, at least like to know just WHAT TYPE of guy she's looking for?!?!?! A very uptempo jazz rocker similar to The Tubes. Features amazing guitar solos by Jody Worrell and incredible saxophone work by David Romine.

A medium paced ballad that tells the story of difficult communication between a Father and a Son. This is one of my favorite songs that I would like to re-record. However, this version does have a very moving saxophone solo by David Romine that I love. This one is dedicated to and was written for my Dad.

This was second song that Rick Keinat and I ever wrote and recorded together. It is a mellow, slow, swinging, jazzy tune that was inspired by 10-CC. Once again a very smooth and sexy saxophone performance by David "The Mix Master" Romine.

A very talented friend of mine by the name of Teresa Reeves wrote the majority of this song. When I was making my first CD I loved it so much that I wanted to record it. However, the only thing missing, in my opinion, was a bridge, which I hope I wrote to her satisfaction. It is a beautiful, slow love ballad about disharmony and problems in a loving relationship.
