Busking [Live Solo] 01:53
lyrics

Busking [Chorus] Let's go busking in the middle of the night. Let's go busking in the middle of the night. Every body's running to the searching sky light. Let's go busking in middle of the night. [Verse 1] In the morning, if they remember your song? At lunch time they'll wanna hear more. After dinner they'll sneak to the store. Grabbing Cd's as they fall on the floor. [Chorus] Let's go busking in the middle of the night. Let's go busking in the middle of the night. Every body's running to the searching sky light. Let's go busking in middle of the night. [Verse 2] If you're lucky your company is strong. If you're smart you keep moving along. Fans & gypsies paying your toll, as you're spreading sweet sweat on the road. [Chorus] Let's go busking in the middle of the night. Lets go busking in the middle of the night. Eve'ry body's running to the searching sky light. Let's go busking in middle of the night.

Faster [Live Solo] 01:51
lyrics

Faster Than On a Christian evening on a Sunset day, a solo valley boy paddled through the bay. He saw the only local, two shared waves, valley boy got lucky dropping down the face. HE WAS FASTER THAN THE SHOULDER HOP. Yowza, Yowza, "My ride." he screamed, like angry surfing coach in a seventies dream. He couldn't even catch 'im from the top, local rocker on the beach dropped his jaw. HE WAS FASTER THAN THE SHOULDER HOP! Hopper reached down to grab the boy's rail. He pushed water back with his tri-fin sail. Spray, in his face, Hopper saw leash trail. Shoulder hopper smiled, gave up, & bailed! HE WAS FASTER THAN THE SHOULDER HOP.

Confident Strutter [Verse] She'd never say she was wrong or apologize. Hooks in the heart's, & date's in a line. If she ever stumble's she won't wonder why. Turn's her cheek & hold's her head up high. [Chorus] Confident Strutter. Tonight your another, lost valentine. [Verse] She'd never say she was wrong or apologize. Hooks in the heart's, & date's in a line. If she ever stumble's she won't wonder why. Turn's her cheek & hold's her head up high. [Chorus] Confident Strutter. Tonight your another, lost valentine. [Lead Guitar Break] [Chorus] Confident Strutter. Tonight your another, lost valentine.

Treasure Hunt Speed [Live Solo] 02:09

Treasure Hunt Speed [Verse 1] Trouble follows me around on a compass baby, heading straight into the wind. I'm sailing a circle through the bay tonight, looking for a chance to come in. So keep the fire built high, keep pounding the drums to the sky. [Chorus] The clock is ticking against us, the clock is racing against us TREASURE-HUNT SPEED! {Verse 2] I got an ocean length of this anchor chain, so hold to the bows of the boat. Pushing so hard, to keep the arc up high. No predator skulls for their show. Keep the pressure, feels tight. As the oil hastens the line. [Chorus] The clock is ticking against us. The clock is racing against us. TREASURE-HUNT SPEED! [Bridge] We're searching for a pearl deep inside. Were searching for a dream so sweet in the night. [Chorus] TREASURE-HUNT SPEED!

Soule [Live Solo] 02:35
lyrics

Soule [Verse 1] If the words you hear aren't setting you right? Did the words you speak call darkness the light? Did a journey unfold upon your soul from night, to keep a cynic's brow, thrown an evil eye? 'Cause when god gives a burden he takes the blame, He doesn't like the devil staking his claim. And that blister you've got upon your foot, is nurtured in the spirit of the path you chose. [Chorus] My soule don't feel that way. I'm grateful for the feast today. It's just the turning of a coin they say, between the sunshine & a rainy day. [Verse 2] If we wear our shoes by the brains we keep, I never saw diamond mounds beneath Arthur Lee's feet. Hidden in a tree of my bronze colored dream where tears are unknown and the temple's complete. What we wear upon our face keeps our fate in time. No short sighted sorrow's like a bad friends advice. And I travel over yonder I trample over there, upon a thousand serpent's tongues who vanished in thin air. [Chorus] My soule don't feel that way, I keep walking on just the same.

[Verse 1] (Db)I bared my soul to you, (Db)exposed my vices (Gb)into view. I knew I'd get hurt once again, 'cause you're play spiteful games.

[Verse 2] So often the same, question makes question, as you're snapping at me. For consolation you thank me, my time here's finite, don't you think I can't see. Like generations of past, storm clouds gather, what you'e granted elapsed. [Chorus] I've got no trouble, no trouble, no trouble, saying goodbye.

Missing Link Us Los Angeles, California

I handed a cassette to then Columbia Artist Walter Egan at The Lighthouse Cafe in Hermosa Beach, CA in 1985. Walter Egan proceeded to record & produce four song ep, receiving airplay on KROQ & college radio. A stronger vocalist was needed. Funding could not be obtained to entice the band members from pursuing other ambition in the; then; very strong business sector, where they remain to this day. ... more
