LOVE, DAN kicks off this album with Dan picking on his banjo as he tells the story about his mother. I'm sure some of you could really relate to the lyrics. Great song.
IF I WERE YOU tells a story about his college days and what his Dad meant to him and as they both went their separate ways in life. I love it. EVER SINCE I WOKE UP is a great upbeat song with very interesting lyrics that you need to listen close to. I must admit, he reminds me a bit of Jonathan Edwards. Cool song.
QUARTER has a sweet melody as the lyrics fit in well. You can drift away with this song as he'll make you want to float away with him. Epic song. PUBLIC DOMAIN is a real song about the true meaning of public domain.No matter what you think, everything is purely public domain and you own nothing.
Think? FOR BETTER OR WORSE is another great song with super great lyrics and could even give you a laugh. Check this one out. I love it. THE SYCAMORE TREE brings this great album to an end. I love the fact that the music is real and no fancy touches were made to it. They rarely make recordings like this anymore. A true classic album. You can find C. DANIEL BOLING at: Deezer, Spotify, You tube music, Pandora, Apple Music and other sites. ROCK ON, JIM ALLFORD [STEEL NOTES MAGAZINE.]
