I Built A Garden For Us


Lenny Kravitz***Eclectic...enigmatic...magnetic & unique. It's not retro, it's original.

Godspeed Sir...

Stevie Wonder

Maybe Your Baby*** The album leading up to Inner-visions ; About the first song that caught my attention, other than the early material, which of course was excellent.

Utilizing some synthesizers, just expanded the whole sound which was already wonderful.

Godspeed Mr. Wonder...*

Fire !!!


The Ohio Players***Well, I am not a misogynist in any form ; Nor did I lay out the artwork on this album.

All I can say is, this song has the funk. I mean the real original Funk...*

Balboa Blue


The Marketts***Back in the day, to the present ; Driving down Ocean blvd. to Sunset. Something good is going to happen, but I just don't know when.

The feeling pervades, a picture in my mind, I cannot remember.Each day driving towards home. Locked in memory.Balboa Blue...*

Eric Clapton

Badge***I don't know anything about the title of this song ; But I do however, feel like this is one of the best.

The chromatic changes have a distinct British twinge.; So much for composition jargon.

Godspeed Mr. Clapton...*

Fly Me To The Moon

I don't know per say why, but when I listen to this song, a quick meltdown like a candle occurs...; So there must be something at the heart of this tune that fires the eternal flame. Even if it's a pilot light.

Godspeed Mr. Bennett...*

Love Is Alive


Gary Wright***Upon pondering this title a few days ago, I realized my subjective impression was viable. Being that in the days of romantic failures, my love was alive; It's just that the object of my desire didn't feel the same way. So much for my two cents...*

Don't Dream It's Over

Neil Finn***I've seen many a concert with Split Endz from New Zealand. But at the time, I was only a touch aware of the focus of the group ; Thinking more along the lines that it was Neil's older Brother.

Nothing but best wishes for Crowded House... : I would have to say quite frankly, that this song is a brilliant masterwork of musical art. forget the hyperbole for a second. Other than The Beatles, I've rarely heard such a fantastic song as this.

It's no point to get into the inner detail per say...To quote a best friend "It Is What It Is". But What Do I Know Anyway...*

Take a listen & tell me otherwise...*

Head Over Heels

Tears For Fears*** What a huge amount of talent. This song has to be one of their best.

How is it of late, that bands don't seem to have any timeless elements of pure audio craft. But of course...What Do I Know Anyway...*

George Harrison

All Things Must Pass***We are all immortal...Our souls. Just the body gets old & used up like an old coat. Put on a new blazer & continue onward to the next destination of our journey...*
