The Traveler Demo

Merry Christmas to everyone.
I promised you a song today. I'm glad to say I've managed to keep that promise.
I know it's Christmas day and not everyone will be logging onto their email account but for those of you who have subscribed to the CD and sent a picture in, you'll be able to hear a little snippet of a new recording.
Mind you, this is only a DEMO. NOT the finished product.
Rough track, rough vocal, rough mix .....
Some of you have heard this song in it's naked phase, just me and a guitar..... this is how I envisioned it sounding.
So, at some point, after Turkey, Egg Nog and the Mother-In-Law, check your in-box for a message on where to go to give it a listen.
Be mindful that this is not available to the general public, only The Project subscribers have access to this first piece of new music.
Have a healthy and happy day today.
Here's to all of us that are restless travelers.......

Happy Birthday To Me

Had a very special day last week.
Made even more special by the outpouring of gifts, love and affection shown to me by people near and far.
Thank you to everyone who got me a card, wished me a Happy Birthday and told me just how much I mean to them.
I know I'm a pretty lucky guy but to be reminded in so many ways is another thing entirely.
I'm back home right now and I have much work to do to meet the self imposed deadline of a new recording by Christmas.
Everyone who has submitted a picture for the CD cover will be getting an email with a link to sample the first of at least a dozen new songs that will be on the record.
Until then, I'll leave you with the most thoughtful and heartwarming Birthday message I got last Wednesday....
It was from TR.
A person I have have known more than half my life.
Someone who I admire, respect and trust.
The one person who has taught me almost as much as my Father.
He said ............

"Blow me old man"
