All accoustic true story. Just my Taylor 814 and Hofner bass
accoustic guitar
Fans of Beatles, Badfinger, Fogelberg, Moody Blues, Raspberries and other Retro Classic rock.
I am a fan of the Beatles, Fogelberg, Raspberries, Badfinger, Moody Blues, solo Beatles, Eagles. Any music that has solid vocals, good harmonies and a hook! I also am developing a fascination with old jazz standards. I am self taught on everything I play which explains my limitations. LOL! Up until a few years ago I was all accoustic all the time and did very little recording on an old 4 trak. I had written a lot of songs over the years on my accoustic most of those are not here as I started using the computer to record and wanting a more electric sound so out came an electric guitar, then I wanted a beat so the cheap drum machine came next, then I needed a bottom so the cheap bass was bought, then my drums sucked so I needed loops. Then I wanted some strings/sax so my keyboard was bought. Well you know the drill the more you get the more you want and songs that took 3 hours now take 3 days. And so my one man 6th grade band was born. I have put samples of the music I have written here on this website. I use drum loops and all other instruments are live Course you probably can tell that, LOL). Anyway as Harry Chapin's Mr. Tanner would say music is my life not my livelihood. I have met some great artists on SC and continue to hear great artists on SC. Click on the stations link to find Soundclick Radio stations where my music is playing. My music playing on these stations has been a pleasant surprise as these stations are filled with great musicians. I have also had the opportunity to collaborate with some very good musicians here on SC. My brother Jim, Svenni Bjorgvins, Juri Rosenfeld, Johnny Proctor, His Masters Choice, DeAnn Sanders, Dawn Sinclair and most recently Dawn Diamond. I am very grateful to all these artists for helping me to have more fun than should be allowed for free. Writing/recording/producing music I find to be very rewarding. I am learning so much everyday about every facet. The exposure to so many great musicians has really helped me evolve as well. Well if you are still awake thanks for coming by.

Story behind the song
I take a walk for about 3 miles when I dont walk the golf course. I have been doing that over 5 years. I pass a house everyday two blocks from my house and say hello to a girl that is out in her yard doing some kind of landscaping etc. We never formally met but say hello.. Well on 9/12/2025 I got very hot and dizzy... this girl was in her yard and given my situation I asked her if she could drive me home as I didnt think I could make it.. She thankfully took me home and gave me some water and we finally met formally in not the best way.. So I am very thankful to Chris for helping me that day... And I believe it was just being hot and not eating... but of course this song came to me two days later very quickly as asking for a ride is not something I would do easily.

Nice storytelling in the lyrics. Great vocal melody, reminds me of something Paul McCartney could have created in the 1960's. Great listen!

really cool song especially given that it actually happened - this has a Crowded House/Neil Finn feel about it (most people consider Finn’s writing style and use of melody is similar to that of McCartney, totally agree with this) Excellent work, cool OG, cool guitar!!!

Great song! I love this true story, it captures one of life's unusual moments - those chance encounters that seem to be part of our destiny. Excellent melody & great accompanying harmonies & guitar work. A magical song!
