Artist picture
Mixtures of folk, rock, blues, country and ethnic themes with layered vocals and harmony. Also Instrumentals, Synthesis, electronic and Psychedellic works.
I specialize in genre blending, and retro rock. I workedwith my son Timothy to develop some new and exciting mixes. Tim accompanied me in :There's Nothing New Under the Sun", Instruments in "Corporate World, and the arrangement and instruments in "The Evil Eye". Timothy is a unique guitarist and pianist. I have been stuck in a work cycle for a couple of years that have not been conducive to developing more material. I have some time off coming up so maybe I will take the opportunity to do so. A sampling of my most recent works of Instrumentals, Vocalizations, and Synthesis is available on my music page. Whatever the heck it is I'm doing right (or wrong) let me know... Life is lonely at the bottom. I am a porch musician. I have never played for income although it would be nice. I play a wide variety of mixtures of folk, rock, blues, and ethnic music. I am not a guitarist who sings, I am a vocalist and songwriter who plays guitar. I've been a singer all my life, for a half century, and played various instruments almost as long. I don't pay much attention to popular music trends, I'm kind of on my own path. Some people like most of it, most people like some of it. It's worth going through my tunes to see what I've got because of the wide variety. Drop me a comment. I use suggestions in new works and sometimes rework my old stuff if I get reasonable feedback. Thanks for stopping by. If no one shows interest there isn't much incentive to keep on posting the new works. Fred

Story behind the song
About a trip I took. Very descriptive. See if you can follow me down I-5 to LA.
Lyrics
As far as I can go By Fred Miller © July 4, 2004 I’m gonna take a ride, see the countryside, I just gotta get away I can take a cruise any time that I choose from Seattle down to LA I don’t see no reason why I shouldn’t be leavin’ I gotta get away some time I can jump on my bike any time that I like, and head southbound on Interstate 5 -Chorus- I’m heading out, out on the highway I’m getting out, out on the road I don’t know, know where I’m goin’ Just out on the road, as far as I can go I’ll breeze past Vancouver the Columbia River and Portland before I stop I’d rather keep sailing, but I won’t make it to Salem, so I’ll kick back, have a smoke and a pop I’ll be cruisin’ through Eugene on the highway to Weed up through the mountains before it drops I ought to get some gas before I start up to the pass to be sure I make it to the top -Chorus- By the time I hit Yreka I’ll be fighting white line fever and my butt’ll be getting sore I’ll get some grub on the way or find a little café but I’ll be headin’ right back out the door I gotta’ get back on my way, or I’m never gonna make, Sacramento before the night If I’m still doin’ fine I can make up some time and hit LA before it’s light -Chorus- Once I hit the strip I’ll be halfway through the trip I still got to get back home -- I’ll only stay, a couple of days, then I’ll head back out on the road I’ll have a little bit of fun out in the sun and I’ll need to get plenty of rest I didn’t want to stay; it’s just a stop on the way for the trip back up to the NorthWest -Chorus- I’m heading out, out on the highway I’m getting out, out on the road I don’t know, know where I’m goin’ Just out on the road, as far as I can go End
