No band just me and my songs!
These songs i've uploaded here at soundclick are my originals from 1984-1992. They were recorded on a 4 track cassette recorder and are limited in quality. I transfered them to digital and used software to reduce tape hiss and other limitations. I thought i'd better get them to digital before it was too late and soundclick provides an excellent place to share them with the world :)

Story behind the song
I wrote this song in early 1987 in Phillipsburg Kansas. Angry at the world I guess ...just tired of seeing people treat each other badly. I met Tommy Watt around that time and decided to have him do the lead vocal. We recorded "People Leave People Alone" in the fall of 1987 and self released in November 1987. The single received airplay on several local stations (Phillipsburg, McCook NE,Concordia & others). Might even still be on the jukebox at Pizza Hut in Phillipsburg, KS :) DOWNLOAD this new REMIXED and REMASTERED version from 2009 :) Enjoy!!!!!
Lyrics
Shadows pass, while I'm alone All my life turns to stone Memories of yesterday I'm playing havoc on my own But still a star fades away and I know I'll see the day when Eternity ends..... and I'm here to stay....here to stay..... You know it's cold out there in this lonely world Sometimes we need to get away Some people taking the easy way out You know they won't see another day Why don't People Leave People Alone? It's getting harder to face everday Why don't People Leave People Alone? You know it's gonna happen anyway Sometimes I can here them calling for me I can't seem to place the sound If you were me what would you do? I don't think I'll stick around Why can't People Leave People Alone? I believe there is something to say Why can't People Leave People Alone? I think I'll leave before I have to stay
