TRACK LISTINGS - PEACE OF MIND
Without A Doubt, a synth-guitar driven progressive rock track, was written with all of my love for my wife.
Go Ahead And Rain represents an exuberance of life without care. If you love, nothing else matters, so Go Ahead And Rain!
Out of My Winter, featuring sax in a jazz/rock setting, demonstrates what can happen if you forget your troubles and know that it's better to let go of things you can't change.
I Know What You Know. This jazz fusion track was inspired by the notion of when you love someone but are too afraid to let it show, you can find peace knowing the other loves you back. The sax is raw with emotion and has been described as "vintage John."
It's Good To Be Home For Christmas. Sax and progressive rock combine on this track.
Peace of Mind, the track, is at the same time a dark and broody work with "peace" found in the joyful Spanish guitar.
Booth Street (Forever You) is a serene avant song most ideally heard on a long winding drive.
Danger Damage Almost Over. A Progressive Rock synth driven track influenced by my favorite band of all time, Rush.
