I am a retired minister. Before working 32 years in ministry, and meeting my beautiful wife and having four children. I was a traveling musician in the 70s and 80s. After a quad bypass, stroke, and heart attack, I have used music to help rehabilitate myself. My wife has assisted me in rehabilitation, taking me to rehab and even showing me how to use the computer to remake and market my music. This past year I sold three songs to Fervor Records, and have been diligently working on creating new and recovering old music. I try to play out at least twice a month.

I wrote this song after 9/11, a metaphor created out of the current lectionary passage.

Yes , I was hindered somewhat with not recognizing language. Pretty music is still pretty music. Ego and self centeredness cause one/me to think my forms of communication are easy for everyone to understand. A lullaby of mine is Handsome Fella, I will post.Thank you for contacting me.

Patric, thank you for your great review of A Hundred Years War...it is a cover song from another BJ singer Susan Nikas. She gave me her permission to record in my style of singing...I am a little farther north but what a trip to do a rally....I did another protest song that my producer was not happy I wanted to do it, but I insisted...on my site it is When Johnny Comes Marching Home with Johnny I hardly Knew Ya...if you get a chance....than let me know what you think....I am a friend in music....Delta
