This is his first acoustic style album. It is a history of his songwriting and includes some songs written in his teens and twenties, and is a project to finally put these songs on disc, and form a set for live work. Recorded at Jammusic Pimasens, Germany, april/may 2014 with great performances from John Lingwood (drums & percussion) Albert Koch (harmonica) Martin Harberer (nylon guitar) and Evelyn Hollerith (backing vocals). The songs range from pure blues, 'Dylanesque' folk, a touch of flamenco, and who knows, many could be almost 'radio friendly'. Strong yet poetic lyrics, and personal love songs from the heart.
