Why Fight Over a Name? (2009 Recording) Why Fight Over a Name? (2009 Recording)
A rose is a rose, by any other name. So it is with God, who by any other name is still the Supreme Universal Consciousness and the Eternal, Infinite, Omnipresent Great Spirit-Parent who loves us all.
It Takes Two (2009 Recording) It Takes Two (2009 Recording)
It's about the union of apparent opposites. It was written in 1978 while I was camping in the desert, realizing that only when our eye is single can we truly live.
The Dream Will Come True (2009 Recording) The Dream Will Come True (2009 Recording)
It's about achieving personal liberation and freedom, and having faith that the dream will come true.
Just Wait and See (2009 Recording) Just Wait and See (2009 Recording)
It's darkest before the dawn, but the end of the tribulation is coming and we'll be sailing free. Just wait and see.
We Can Change Our World (2009 Recording) We Can Change Our World (2009 Recording)
This song is for those disheartened by all the greed, selfishness, corruption, conflict and war. And it recognizes that while we desperately need to reform our governments and religions, the reform must begin with ourselves.

The songs here were his first recording attempts and are just first takes recorded in early 2009 when the now 73 year old artist's health was steadily declining. He felt he was dying, so he finally picked up his guitar again after 26 years of not playing or singing, and recorded as many songs as he could while he could still sing and play just enough to do it.
Since then with a new diagnosis and medicines his health improved a bit and he can breathe a bit better, so he has been working, whenever he was able, to improve the recordings and the arrangements, and record them on a better, 8 track digital portable studio recorder. It was kind of touch and go, but when he had relatively good days he did what he could and he finally produced a better 12 song album that he is a little more satisfied with.
But, even as they are the songs here also deliver an important and crucial message --- because the lyrics of the songs are even more relevant now than when they were written more than 30 years ago.
