We all need a little traction every now and then don’t we? This super jam catches a moment in time in my fabled Athens days with Parakeet Nelson / Phallic Phungus. An nine piece band live in the studio totally locked in with me barely playing guitar because of a broken wrist. … Continue reading
I saw an article from Spain where they talk about this song ( and even translate it ). I recorded it on November 14th for this blog last year and have gotten an outpouring of support from Spanish basketball fans. I’m a big Rubio fan, but I also like Gasol, Navarro and a few … Continue reading
It’s snowing and the winds are gusting with gusto out there today. A great time to post a reggae song. Maybe that will warm things up psychologically for a minute. A strong thermal/psychological endurance would most definitely make your mama proud.
More and more I listen to early Bob Marley (before the British producers) and I also listen to Toots and the Maytals. That’s good stuff. In no way does that give me a reggae pedigree. I’ve listened to it for 20 years but I know you’ve got to live it to really … Continue reading
Day two of my two day vacation. It’s not so sweet knowing you’ve got to go home soon. But then again I have a lot of obligations, so it’s also bitter sweet (ie recording a song for everyday in 2010). Being creative, I tried to be totally in the moment, which was beach house vacation-style … Continue reading

Our new friend Kathy got us thinking about the lives and culture that goes into making a glass of wine. All the history that goes into each glass is astounding. For some reason I started thinking about that this morning and applied it to a fisherman at sea. Probably because I have copy … Continue reading
I was a crazy youth. I did lots of super insane things but luckily I never got a legitimate bad reputation. I always managed to stay out of trouble and or getting caught. This song’s about a reputation preceding a new romance. ”Now you know my secret, I’m a bad bad man, but … Continue reading
“The more things change the more they stay the same”, they say. I don’t know if I agree with that exactly, I’ve changed a lot in my lifetime and even in the past month. Hopefully I’m changing into someone who makes a lot of birdie putts. Aside from material stuff like that, I … Continue reading
As usual, after my work week recycling out town and staying away from home a few nights I’m catching up with my songs. I surprised Adair with a pizza and salad from the grocery store tonight and guess what, that inspired this song. I’d been watching the PGA tournament and the new kid Rickie Fowler … Continue reading
