I was sixteen years old when I wrote the oldest song here, the title track of this collection. Some years later John & I were sitting in a McDonalds in suburban NJ and I was pontificating on my goal for media domination, all supposedly fueled by these songs. It was a grand aspiration – but never quite a plan.
Then years passed, and life happened.
In 2007 John and I were sitting at a bar when I announced the plan – it was time to actually record some of the songs that had been gathering dust and notoriety for close to 30 years. So we began.
Then years passed, and life happened.
In 2015, the ever eclectic stars aligned and we were playing music in the same band for the first time since high school – this re-ignited my passion for the project, and fed the final push of recording and mixing. Finally now, after almost exactly eleven years in the making, it meets your ears.
These songs are all snapshots – they are fragments of my life scattered over 20+ years. They are what brought me here.
There are so many people to thank, but to mention one would be to mention all and I would hate to omit anyone. One thing I do know for sure – none of this could have happened without John.
