my web site, it's one of my earliest songs, and this is my historical archive.

The Music We Make

Please don't be impatient with the singer of this song
He's a little bit tired, a whole lot higher, and he knows he might do it wrong
There's a world of difference between him and you
But we don't really care
The music we make has the power to take us there

He might find it hard to sing if the people don't want to hear
Lots of sounds are going around besides the one he's near
But there's an easy way to get it together and it's something we can try to share
The music we make has the power to take us there
Anywhere...

You say he looks angry, it's a misunderstanding on your part
If he tries to open up your eyes, he finds he doesn't know where to start
But take a good look at where he's at now, you can't help but be aware
The music we make has the power to take us there
Anywhere

My gift of music always did make me feel different from other people, and because rock and roll has become so popular in the latter half of the 20th century and ended up staying around way longer than anyone thought possible, many people envy those of us who were there when it was really happening. I wish that it did have the power to take us all there, wherever "there" really is. So much great and truly memorable music has been produced by so many different rock and roll artists that listening to them often does have the power to make me happy. I have a terrific collection of old classic rock and roll 45 speed records which I transferred onto CD's and I listen to all of them quite often. Songs like "Hey Girl" by Freddy Scott (Carol King's first hit song - I think), "Sherry" by the Four Seasons, "Shop Around" by Smokey Robinson and The Miracles, "Runaway" by Del Shannon, "Be my Baby" by the Ronnettes, "Talk Talk" by the Music Machine and so many others are incredibly dear to my heart. And then there is the H.P. Lovecraft album by a 1960's psychedelic group that very few people know. They had two great singers who disappeared off the face of the planet. And the list goes on and on and on . . .
