Love-Starved Children

March 10, 1994

This song was inspired by one of the kids in our neighborhood who struck me as pretty forsaken, since her parents apparently never had time to her, so she often would tug along with us when we'd go for a walk through the woods or whatever...

Coincidentally, this song brought me to the States in 2000, via the North America Country Music Association Intl., since the song had won some kind of award the year beforehand, and I was invited to attend the following year, but that is yet another story...

Life's Like a River

Dec.'92-April 20, '93

One of my more inspired attempts at a Country-Folk song.
Around this time I was bidding farewell to busking and playing more and more regular gigs...

Where Grey Skies Won't Go

November 24, 1992

One day I got a phone call from Cesar Galehr in Austria, telling me he'd heard my tape "One Moment in Heaven" and that he needed a rhythm guitarist for his Country band.
Our first gig in Switzerland was a disaster, but I wound up playing with "Cesar & Go West" for 15 years.
On that first gig I happened to meet 2 girls from Stuttgart, gave them a tape and consequently met Ted Richley, another Christian Country musician, who not only recorded my 2 subsequent albums, but also got me into the Stuttgart Country scene and later on donated a P.A. to our cause (parts of which I'm still using.)

This song was one of my early attempts to write a Country song, although my love for Country didn't turn out to be a lasting affair, largely due to the development of the Country scene...
