Album Notes

Last year at this time I was just starting my first CD project solely for the reason that I had always wanted to complete a record album while I was still able. After releasing "What We Still Haven't Learned" in 2006 and seeing it favorably received, however, I got very inspired to make another one! So I dug right in and started writing what I thought were another group of fictional songs. It occurred to me while I was finishing the recording, however, that rather than fictionalizing the song premises this time around, I had actually been subconsciously gathering ideas from my real life experience to form the basis of the compositions. I went through each song and was able to pick out the actual situation in my life that related to it (Except for the Barbie Doll song, of course... I have no idea where that one came from). As I thought about this revelation I asked myself - isn't this what we all do? Each of us have gathered bits and pieces from our life's experience and have carefully if unknowingly put them together into that which makes us who and what we are. There is indeed some assembly required.
