Album Notes

“Rock, Bones, Swordfish”is the first solo album from singer-songwriter Terry Paul White. It features well crafted songs, tight ensemble instrumentation, clear vocals, and infectious guitar riffs. Here is a synopsis:

"World War IV" takes a look at life in the US today. It presents a funny and irreverent take on official paranoia, politics, and the media.

"Black Widow Male" is a classic rock song that looks at romance and sees danger.

"Little Green Men" introduces the listener to Mary Sweet, a smart woman who knows exactly what she wants...Money.

"Something Sacred" is set against an urban landscape and looks at the solitary quest of the Post-Modern man from the inside.

"Trapped In Amber" is a rock/jazzy piece featuring soaring guitar, lots of rhythm and percussion instruments, and half a photograph...

"Every Little Thing" is a kind of folk-rock ballad, exploring the connections between love and music.

"Wouldn’t You Say" is a moody rock ballad, challenging the listener to consider the inevitability of love and loss.

"The Truth Hurts" is a moderate tempo pop-rock-jazz tune with trenchant lyrics. Please lie to me...

"Brick" is a rockin’ tune that imagines a love affair remembered. She never mentioned her work in adult films. Dang!

"We All Drown" is part ballad, part sea shanty, and perhaps a metaphor for “Rock, Bones, Swordfish”. A fragile storm-tossed vessel plying the vast and uncaring wine-dark ocean in search of landfall...

Terry has written for and performed on earlier releases with the band 2Boss Vega. Visit www.2bossvega.com for more details.
