Contemporary by Lance Eads
There's blood on the tracks
& some of it's mine
There's tears in the grooves
& some are from cryin'
But I assure you just as many
Are from laughter
What I have wrote
I won't take back
Not one note
Shall I retract
May they endure beyond
The great hereafter
Written over the course of a little over 20 years, this is the 1st time I've committed most of these songs to recorded form. I've opted for the diamond-in-the-rough approach, rather than elaborate arrangements, though at some future date I might decide to record some or all of these songs with a full band, 4-part harmony, and a string-section for good measure. Who knows? Surely not I. I recorded every song here in 1 or 2 takes w/ no overdubs, using just an iPhone 4S. Enjoy your auditory sensory experience and have a nice day!
