Steps in Between
- As the title suggest this was an in-between album. There was so much material recorded for the Greedy Pig sessions that after that was completed about a year later, this was brought out. Looking back it is as good as its predecessor or better. Of course, at the time. we did not see that. The advantage of time.
- Sometimes you make recordings and they grow in presence. This is the case here exploring what lies in between thoughts and reality.

5th Track on Election – Never Vote for What They Want
5th Track – Never Vote For What They Want
Life is like that, we have heard it said. People rarely do what they want, so why should they vote any differently. The politics of fear is a big thing and very real in small and big societies. We focus on what people are afraid of. That then leaves little time over for what we want. Not complicated. Raise it from the bottom of the ocean where it is buried beneath the fear and maybe we find that there is nothing there. Awareness is a long and sobering game. It is real though and just a little can go much further than we expect. This song took a lot longer to do for all sorts of technical reasons. The meaning is parallel to the process.
Recorded in the fall of 2017, written in 2016.
Due for release in the fall of 2018.

Into the sun
Don’t you want to come in from the cold
I’ve seen you standing out there alone
The street is full of souls that moan
and I am along way from home
Let me sit and be one
fall into the sun
Where I longed to be
Life without fear
The laughter and smiles
light that sparkles in warm & cold days
Innocence radiates from my love’s face
The curves and colour from her head to her waist
Let me sit and be one
fall into the sun
Where I longed to be
Life without fear
The Joy she brings inside her heart
The smile she imparts
I see what is grace
and I know that I would never leave
I could forgot all that has caused me strife
and change my entire life
Let me sit and be one
fall into the sun
Where I longed to be
Life with out fear
