VALENTINO WAY 

I decided to include this track after messing about with the intro and altering a couple of lyrics......it seemed to

offer something a little different from the rest of the album.....thanks to the real Uncle John for providing the 

opening....albeit inadvertently....

WHY THE CAGED BIRD SINGS..... 

Just finishing off a new song 'Why the Caged Bird Sings'.....a few problems
with lyrics&chord sequence,but getting there....should sound good with the
right production.....could do with Jeff Beck on second guitar..amazing player.
Saw him recently in Oxford...all instrumental&with a great band,including girl of
22 on bass.Stanley Clarke eat your heart out!!I want to get back to some live stuff,
but a bit rusty...maybe later this year...
                        Cheers....MIKE

Demon 

   Could be the title of another track....still working on it.I've put up a playlist of songs by artists who I've
found interesting...these tracks give an idea of their stuff,but need to listen to whole albums to really get
into them.....do people listen to whole albums anymore??I wonder.Too much effort maybe...
    Trying to get a video done...will be an acoustic version of either one song off 'Nine Dreams',or a new
track....would be nice to record it outside,but no chance at the moment...

UPCOMING ALBUM......UNTITLED(AS YET).... 

                         New songs for follow up to 'NINE DREAMS PASSING'.......a lot of ideas,but also a lot
   
   of  sweat to get them up and running.Working without a band is good and bad...good,because

   you answer only to yourself,bad because there's no-one to sound out for feedback.Even so,I 've

   enjoyed this way of working.....no egos or petty squabbles....I've tried picking a fight with myself,

   but there's no fun in it...I always win!
