Publisher's Synopsis
Begin the Millennium Rhyme presents the author's original song lyrics over five decades, at the end of the twentieth century, into the new millennium. Raised in the American West in the 1950's and 1960's, Richardson chronicles a personal narrative in 124 song lyrics, the internal and cultural shifts, tenor, and style of his era, reflecting the influences of folk-rock and Americana songwriting. His writing takes the reader on a journey of short stories in rhyme, of time and place. These crafted stories are married to rhythm and melody, as sung on guitar, solo, or performed in band arrangements and sound recordings.
This collection offers autobiographical and social observations of an American songwriter in the late twentieth century.
