Pix from the 01/03/09 gig: Here I am, playing in the window! It got pretty crowded at times! Kieran watched me play with a smile Margaret worked the register Megan requested "Brown Eyed Girl" = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 'Here's some pix from the 12/05/08 gig: This is the cafe from the outside. It's small, but mucho 'cute.' This is the view from directy in front. That's me in the window, on the right, setting up. This is Jennifer Eyges, a customer and a vocal instructor and opera singer with the Northern Westchester Music Teachers Alliance. She was great, and I was flattered that she sang with me! These were my delicious little ham & cheese sandwiches that were part of my salary. Here's some other pix of me, playing: Broken strings don't stop me! Sometimes I feel ready for anything... ...other times I jus' wanna play some music, y know?

Story behind the song
I recorded this, live, using my ancient Sony Handycam (sorry for the quality)! The guitar used was a Taylor 655CE Jumbo 12 string acoustic/electric.
Lyrics
There'll be no strings to bind your hands, Not if my love can't bind your heart. And there's no need to take a stand For it was I who chose to start. I see no need to take me home, I'm old enough to face the dawn. Just call me angel of the morning ANGEL Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby. Just call me angel of the morning ANGEL Then slowly turn away from me. Maybe the sun's light will be dim And it won't matter anyhow. If morning's echo says we ve sinned, Well, it was what I wanted now. And if we're the victims of the night, I won't be blinded by light. Just call me angel of the morning ANGEL just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby. Just call me angel of the morning ANGEL Then slowly turn away, I won't beg you to stay with me Through the tears of the day, Through the years, baby baby baby. Just call me angel of the morning ANGEL Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby.
