Muddy Mississippi Blues...

Excellent. And, very true. Our sorrows and joys are… how does it go… like the passing weather. They are there to be felt, and they will fade away like the clouds or shy away like the sun. All we need to do is wait.

yeah, me and my guitar played a lot of those songs when i used to travel thru those parts of your country….i remember waiting out a tornado under a bridge in little rock once…that was the blues for sure…………………….

Yes, feel it.

Mmm….sweet, intoxicating blues rolling on by……………….I am in awe of your singing/songwriting/musical talents………it rocks!!!

.hey Star…if you ever get on youtube, I'd be delighted to listen to it……..

'79 to '85 were my dropout busking years meandering around n. america being a genuine menace to society in a somewhat sannyasin style. completely noncompetitive just living for the moment….me and a friend was a roamin'  around; him a musician and i was a clown; playin the streets for a dollar a day; waiting for a song and a sign to show the way…we headed out west to the mystical land; kinda unexpected didn't quite understand; on a razors edge; on a grain of sand onwards we marched to the gates of oblivion…………
i remember singing those lines alot…anyway, in those heady days we didn't play in clubs; i didn't start doing that until my 30's around 90'. by then i was pretty good and semi-pro and i was still passionate about music, but by 2001 after slogging it out in local bars for 10 years i just became totally disillusioned with the whole toxic scene. and i maintain that the entertainment industry is basically run by sociopaths…….they counter that i am just a cynical failure and was never that good anyway; which only means to me that yes, i was never a great musician, true, but still pretty damn good in and around 95……..sometime in the next year i am going to post everything that i've ever recorded over 20 years…quite a bit of stuff and just leave it on the net for posterity…….maybe when i am dead those assholes will find a way to make money from me!LOL

here some lyrics from 2003…….
even god didn't like to be alone so he made this house and he called it home, then he invited us all out to play and made the sunshine and called it day, but some where down the line something went wrong, i swore i heard an angel singing a mournful song…………….. I FORGET AND REGRET, WHERE I COME FROM I CAN'T SAY YET, LOST IN THIS SEA OF MYSTERY, THIS MISERY WON'T LET ME BE, YEAH WITH THIS AMNESIA I CAN'T GET FREE, WITH THIS AMNESIA I CAN'T GET FREE. once in a while u say u see a light, out there some where in the darkest night. u sense it may be calling u back, u sense it may be what u lack, then u hear that angel singing that song, and it makes u feel that u don't belong………… I FORGET AND REGRET, WHERE I COME FROM I CAN'T SAY YET, ALL I FEEL IS THIS SENSE OF SHAME, BUT I TELL MYSELF THAT I'M NOT TO BLAME, THIS AMNESIA IS SO MUCH PAIN, YEAH THIS AMNESIA IS LIKE ENDLESS RAIN, YEAH THIS AMNESIA IS SO MUCH PAIN, YEAH THIS AMNESIA IS LIKE ENDLESS RAIN! AMNESIA lyrics 2003, andrewmarkmusic………….

ya live in vancouver long enough and a rain theme develops.lol
yeah, i played on the streets in nashville and memphis in the early eighties. the average american's are some of the nicest people i ever met………too bad the military industrial complex hijacked our societies…………
