Bruce Bartlett
and Kenn Crawford
for their assistance getting these songs recorded and mixed. They're still not perfect. Likely won't ever be. Without these two fellas these songs wouldn't be here.
JUST ANOTHER DAY The lyrics tell us that most people have choices, yet few take advantage of this blessing, and most find themselves stuck in a rut.
- BRICES CREEK BLUES
Brices Creek Blues, an acoustic guitar tune, was Mike's first attempt at using Cakewalk's Sonar Producer Edition software for audio recording. (The song refers to Guiness, an Irish beer noted for its dark color and stout flavor!)
- ROW ME AWAY!
A lone sailor enters a bay and sets anchor. He is soon drawn to the sounds of a band playing nearby. Sometimes we are not meant to be alone.
- I NEED YOU
No doubt, any relationship that lasts should do so because it benifits both sides. This song tells us that "friends make lovers like no others. Laughter is the key."
MIKE AND THE WAVE MAKERS ARE NOW IN RECORDING. New songs are forthcoming, some of which will be posted here soon.
