Its been many years since I did an album. I moved away from music for a bit to concentrate on raising a family and now that they are off to college, it's my turn to have fun and explore. I have a backlog of material plus some new songs that I wanted to share. I wanted to do a more positive album in these very dark times. I decided that with all the new tools I had at my disposal, I would try and sing on a few of the songs. I am not a very good singer but I can do nice things as an audio editor and engineer. I guess you will be the judge of what I was able to pull off. The songs vary in style so you can't categorize the album as a rock or pop. 

I want to thank some of the excellent people who are giving me a hand on the album. My good friend Chet Hogoboom of Soul Sauce and Michael J. Cullen did all the vocals on WhatDoYaKnow. Jill Knight, who is an absolute fantastic singer songwriter sings on Enchanting Dream. Pamela Delgado of Blame Sally fame accompanies me doing vocals on She's My Baby. Terry Belmore of The Belmores plays some beautiful fluid electric guitar on Into My Arms. Ryan McKinley plays some mean fiddle/violin in Beat of Desire and Father, U&I. Can't forget Greg Timmons who plays a mean lead guitar on Look For That Reason. Electric graphic design was provided by Toby Newell.
