    A New Collaboration...Will Continue If Good.

    I usually write all my drivel alone, but this time I was given lyrics by a well-respected Los Angeles lyricist. Hoping not to ruin this opportunity, I tried to write a typical pop song from them. Your opinions on both the music & lyrics are definitely welcome...As usual, I did all instruments &...

    Zep Butchered! Your Autopsy Please...

    A Change Of Style

    Evidently I've been recording too many "Pop" songs, because my friends said they're getting bored with it. So I tried my hand at some sorta bluesy thing. I put down the Rickenbacher & played my Les Paul. Yep-That is a cheesy Yamaha drum machine on it. I plan on adding real drums soon, but I...

    It Must Suck To Be Pete Best

    I'm sorry, I just can't help it... I keep envisioning some fat old bloke drinking himself to death in an East London pub, going on & on about how he was once in The Beatles, as the waitress pats him on the back and humors him while whispering over her shoulder to the bartender "Time to cut this...

    Song That Made You Cry

    There are probably a few macho rockers out there who won't admit that a song actually made them cry, but the song that makes me blubber like a baby is "You Still Believe In Me", off the Pet Sounds album by the Beach Boys... What are the songs that found you shocked that you would tear up at them?

    Deepest Lyrics Ever Written
