An acoustic "rambler" inspired by the guitar voicings of my friend and mentor, Lewis McGehee.

With roughly 550 solo-gigs under my belt and enough originals to choke a horse... I spent about 10 years in the Baltimore circuit. Great times!
I've been playing Acoustic Classic Rock for the past 25-30 years. Under the direction of Studio Wizard Dave Roy I got the CD "So Jennerous" out in early 2003 and hope to have the next project "Second Coming..." in the can someday.

Story behind the song
Written to a couple of shipmates going home after their first major deployment. Paddy Chayevsky said "You can't go home again." It's better like that, actually.
Lyrics
You're on your way back Home again, Can't wait to see their faces!!! When they find out the distance you have come!! You're on a Midnight bus to where, You can't recall the traces.... Of all the many wrong turns you've come from!! You've got to find a way to forgive yourself, For being human!! You cannot blame the ones who did not know What they were doin' in your life!! Perhaps no one will see the change?!? They'll maybe think of you the same?!? But you know you have turned your life around.... You are the Prodigal!! (Lead) The difference that they cannot view.... Has metamorphasized in of you.... They'll never really know the deal.... Cause they can't see th things you feel!! You've got to find a way to forgive yourself, For being human!! You cannot blame the ones who did not know What they were doin' to your life!! Perhaps no one will see the change?!? They'll maybe think of you the same?!? But you know you have turned your life around.... You are the Prodigal!!... You've Must Maintain Control!!... You've Got to Save Your Soul!!... Cause You're the Prodigal!!... Yes, You're the Prodigal!!...
