Publisher's Synopsis
The Poems in this compilation will transport you back to the Wild West when a man's only chance was his old Army Colt 44. Through stories of the Rocky Mountain Ranch country in Alberta Canada. You'll hear the stories and meet the old cowboys who told them, most all now long since passed on. Be carried through a fantasy world of Dragons, Kings and Sorcerers. Find yourself drawn into the American Civil War with Drummer Boy Johnny Clem. Storm the beaches of Normandy with Field Marshal Jim Hedgehog and his Woodland Command. Go on Honeymoon with Spiders. Unwrap and discover humour, nonsense, philosophical and thought provoking comments within this half century of abstract thought, keen listening and dreams. Poet, Singer Songwriter Recording Artist. The inspiration for these poems comes from many places, far off countries, the people met along the way, not least the solitude of the wild country where there is time to dream. Jake Peters, longtime friend and world class musician, commented "He should never be left alone with his mind" The rest of the band readily agreed. Not only known for Poetry and Songwriting, but also as a fingerstyle guitarist on his trusty old Martin D18 combined with a smooth vocal technique. Recording two albums of mostly Western songs, the majority of his own composition. Many of the tracks have received radio play across the world from the UK to Australia and even in Japan. Both CD's "My Old Blue Truck and "Gravel Road" are available on Amazon and many other music sites.
