'so go buy your bling and will just do our thing because we hear one voice.' It's not whether the story is true that matters - It's what the story makes you do that matters.
- CPT Dave - Abstract - Singer
Hands down - the most requested song from the Magic Beans CD. Very catchy indeed...
The title says it all - for those that understand - no explanation is necessary - for those that don't - none is possible.
We have played this song live many times and are now glad to present this recording to all who requested. Thanks for listening...
New from Abstract! Sure , kick a person while he/she is down. Another solid emotional ride from Checkmate!
Relationships are tough - Illustrative of the all important 'listening' element in good communication. On the drums is none other than Leroy Goodman!
Hard hitting - bash that guy into the ground - music... This is the way MMA fighter Double XL wants it - well, he gets it. Semper Fi
Based on a true story - this melodic rocker speaks to direction and objective in life. X is what your missing go...
Riff oriented Commercial Rock - When you point a finger at someone, there are 3 fingers pointing back at You.
Tick, Tick, Tick - as time runs out on the late great planet earth. There is still time for people of substance to let their light shine...
Choosy mothers choose this song.
Soft and Smooth - this song is a favorite of our blues and jazz influenced friends. A very popular and successful song for Abstract.
We are a little suprised that Carousel is as popular as it is. We simply didn't think most folks would get it. Clowns and stuff... yikes.
Life is like a day at the carnival. So much to see and do - so many decisions so little time...
Some things are simply worth fighting for! New from Abstract - The CD 'Checkmate'
A very popular song for us in Europe - Written by Doug Spenceley. Originally performed in Fulda, Germany 1992. (Im Hercules Centrum)
Checkmate is here! New Rock from Abstract! This upbeat rocker is sure to move any ocassion. If you are into softer rock, May we suggest One Chance or Prize Fighter.
As Chico Piris would say, 'this song is about a beesh that left me.' Ah, his timeless eloquence. Who would have ever believed the beans were so magical...
Written over a bottle of 151, this is the very first completed Abstract song ever written (1991).
The understanding of lyrical allegory and metaphor was evolving about the time this song was written. If no one sees it happening does it really happen? The answer is yes...
'...I will make songs for the ears of the president, full of weapons and menacing points.'
Walt Whitman - Leaves of Grass
Decisions, decisions, decisions... What you gonna do? Choose wisely at the River's Edge. A poor choice is costly...
This fast moving rock song is about sacrifice and the pursuit of what is most important. 'Somebody help me put these rats in their cages.' It's the listener that gives the song life...
'Do unto others as you would have done unto you' and when you fail to do so Apologize. This song is dedicated to the memory of James Byrd Jr. and all who ever suffered as a result of hatred. It is written to the haters...
A driving in your face rocker! If your more into blues and funk, may we suggest Plastic Jesus or Pick up the Phone. This song is a little dark. It was written during a very dark period.
Remember how we held hands and took the plunge together. Said it was you and me all the way til the end? What happened to you?
