As our band shifts into a new direction, I'm putting older band material up on my soundclick site. This song was written by Mentor Williams and originally recorded by Dobie Gray. BTW - the picture was taken on a recent trip to Puerto Rico ...

Artist picture
Instrumental Guitar Rock, with a blues and heavy metal influence.
Individually, I play instrumental guitar rock, with a strong blues influence. I also play in a local band that does classic and contemporary rock covers. It was awesome to do some dueling guitars with Kerry! The band continues to amaze me with gigs we get. This year's highlight has to be opening for Eddie Money. As I looked out into the crowd there were thousands of people as far as I could see ... and they were there to Rock! What an incredible experience! This year I can also add cancer survivor to my resume - lol as if my little bout is worth mentioning. I guess the point is, we're only here for a little while so make the best of it! Rock on!Todd

Story behind the song
The picture was taken on a recent trip to Puerto Rico. It was taken at breakfast outside our hotel. I thought it was the appropriate picture for "Drift Away"!
Lyrics
Day after day I'm more confused So I look for the light in the pouring rain You know that's a game that I hate to lose I'm feelin' the strain, ain't it a shame Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away Beginning to think that I'm wastin' time I don't understand the things I do The world outside looks so unkind I'm countin' on you to carry me through And when my mind is free You know a melody can move me And when I'm feelin' blue The guitar's comin' through to soothe me Thanks for the joy that you've given me I want you to know I believe in your song Rhythm and rhyme and harmony You help me along makin' me strong
