One of my better early songs, musically speaking. There are some really inventive chord progressions and harmonies, not to mention a real bit of energy in the piano work. Nice piece. Probably should properly record it, assuming I can still play like that.

One of the first piano pieces I recorded, having initially focused on my current guitar work. Most of this is improv based on an initial riff I discovered while jamming. There’s actually some pretty inventive chords and progressions in this one. Think I’ll have to see if I can relearn this piece and polish it up for a new recording

Same as the first take, but different…

Nice little melody fragment. Good way to start a song. I should probably revisit this one.

Another upbeat song written on a day in which the sun was shining on this artist’s teenage soul-in-progress.

This gets real interesting about one minute into the recording. Just a jam session at first, then moves into some really imaginative rhythms. My advice – skip the first 60 seconds and go straight for the throat.

The title says it all. This was me almost fifty years ago flipping off musical theory. Screw harmony! (Not very popular)

A little experiment in a three stanza format, rather than the standard four I use pretty much exclusively, even to this day almost 50 years ago. Hadn’t even remembered this one. Perhaps I should revisit the concept.
