World music songwriting that transcends the single band.
World music songwriting that transcends the single band. Music made round the world from 1990-2002. These songs are my legacy material. My life is an experiential journey of my own design and some of the end result has been recorded and/or live music and spoken word. I play a variety of instruments and sing/talk. Most of the songs on this page date from my recordings between 1995's "4" (under the Moniker Mr. Chaos, in Detroit Michigan U.S.A.) through to 2002's "In Stereo" (with Add Lib Lounge, in Helsinki, Finland). There are also some glimpses here of 1997-9s "Mr. Chaos Trio" from Mid-Finland; 2000's Bahasa Mix, from Malaysia; and 2001's Jazz sessions from Helsinki (with the Black Tuesday Quartet); and 2004 activist bluegrass recordings against GW Bush's "No Child Left Behind" schooling initiative. I hope you enjoy it.

Lyrics
Sherlock wouldn't sit but chose to stand, He sized up his new client's wedding band. "My good sir, you've got trouble on your hands or else I wouldn't be here in Japan!" "Maybe I don't myself quite understand- they practice quite strange customs in this land. So draw up and pour some brandy my good man, Your ventures here you must, quite soon, abandon!" "Excusez-moi, si je suis discrete... mais je ne sais pas, au juste, aujourd'hui arrete-vous votre poursuite ici il i a lieu de croire un voleur connait-il!" [Translation] "Excuse me if I must be discrete, but I don't feel so sure about this today. Stop your ventures here immediately - there is reason to suspect a thief knows of it!" Montreal, 12/95
