Total Pieces::Lost Epic Tea

Guilty

Here's a little jumpy bluesy number to get the mood started. I dedicate this to my muse, Megan, without whom this project may never have happened.

Amara

A true story. Yep. Warning: this is a bit of an earworm. You Have Been Warned.

Bye and Bye

A waking dream, perhaps. Not a roadmap. I may have had some early Zappa in mind when crafting this sloppy blues piece.

Gabrielle

This one was written for a violinist friend who just couldn't make it out alive.

Feeling Wild

More dirty bluesy stuff. Yes, this is me singing still.

At the Holidays

Written for, or rather, about real people I knew at one time. Kinda botched the lyrics when I recorded. The line is "daddy DRANK full time", not whatever it was that I actually sang.

Over Her

A fun look at the male gaze. Or, something like that. The bridge is a vocal disaster, but I rather like it like that.

Buttercup

A love song to an imaginary lover, I imagine. Good walking music, IMO.

Bard of the Pits

A song dedicated to no one in particular really, but I may have had Ani in mind.

Organize

Country folk protest song anyone? The lyrics are really silly, but the sentiment is right, in a way.

Make the Grade

A snapshot of anger and despair, with noisy guitar.

Flush and Kiss

Don't even ask what this means, because I'm not sure it means anything.

Ghosts Come Alive

Another protest-type thing.

Let the Blues

AND, finally, the one thing a white guy should never do: claim to be a bluesman. Oh, well. Apologies to George Carlin.
