Hello I'm Zan The Man. Many years ago I recorded some songs on a stero reel to reel tape recorder, and the results were not that great. When the old recorder broke I could't find anyone to work on it so I quit recording and ultimately quit playing. I was a disc jockey during this period of time playing music on the air and recording my own music at home in secret. My recorded music was only shared with a few close friends and family. Many years later when computers came to the station I was working at, I was not happy about that. I didn't know a thing about computers, and could care less. When I learned how to use a wave editor I began to see all the advantages of digital recording and editing, and how much easier it was. Over time national radio shows and computer automation made me decide to get out of radio. My live, on the air, radio show was in effect over. I guess I still have the urge to put my voice out there so to speak. That may be why I got my own computer with recording software so I could record songs again. I've gone from putting commercials on the radio, to songs on the internet. My songs were recorded back in 2007. When these songs are gone I'll decide then whether to record more or not. Thanks so much for the fans and support I've picked up along the way. Zan The Man Up-dated 8/8/09

Story behind the song
Modern music has gone in a direction I can't understand. All types of music used to have a tune, but not any more. The old songs seem to tell a story of times that were simple, of loneliness, of grief, and the basic longing for the "good o'l days" so to speak. This song is a look back at musical history that is gone, but not forgotten. My goal is to write new songs in that old time way. I'll use simple tune, simple beat, simple words. I can't change the music industry and its direction. I can put my music out there, and see if public opinion can change the music industry.
Lyrics
Lets sing the old songs again. The ones we sang many years back then. They sound so good to me, they bring back memories, oh lets sing the old songs again. (zan the man; author) "Take These Chains" H. Williams(author) Oh lets sing the old songs again.(zan; author) "San Antonio Rose" B. Wills (author) Oh lets sing the old songs again. The ones we sang many years back then. They sound so good to me, they bring back memories. Oh lets sing the old songs again. (short guitar lead) Oh lets sing the old songs again. The ones we sang many years back then. They sound so good to me, they bring back memories. Oh lets sing the old songs again. (zan; author)
