Hi to all. I've been playing for allot of years now. Have been in bands and frankly don't like the playing out thing much anymore, getting to old to pack all the gear and haul it around I quess. Recently I was a member of a three piece group posted as High Plains. Great music and great guys, but with the playing out thing and other more pressing issues decided it was time to sit back and just do what I love best, create the type of music I love best.

Lyrics
Verse 1 Ghosts sing out from a roughened sea Their souls happy and free Singing songs of their maritime tales Ghosts songs on the wind Verse 2 Casts of rum and the tales of voyages Made in younger days Their callused hands hoist the canvas tight For their onward flight (ooohhhs) Verse 3 Cargo holds filled with treasures and gold Most taken in vain Poor souls lost to these sailors dreams And these ghosts unseen Chores Distant lands and far of places Fill young minds with anticipation Dreams of wealth and the taste of rum That sign you on (ooohhhs) Chores Sail by stars and the smell of the sea Windless days are like eternity Feel the sting of the first mates lash That drives you on Verse 4 Souls cry out from a roughened sea Storm clouds brew in the night Stealing your hopes and stealing your dreams Ghost songs on the wind
