Holy shit, I actually figured out how to post music. Partially I am inept, and partially they don’t make it so easy. Sorry to those people I hounded asking for help. You’re all linked in the new "Music" section if it’s any consolation. Thanks to Mystical Beast who actually wrote me back. I didn’t know about the whole mp3 blog world and I like it. This is a great venue for people to finally hear the songs I've written. I've been keeping it private for too long. Five people is better than no people at all. Don’t know what the old reading regulars will think of my songwriting. It comes from a different wing of my mind.

I thought I’d start with a song from the CD I released, unfortunately named H. Baum. Actually, I always wanted the name "Ash Tree" to be for my imaginary future rock band. Hasn’t happened and this is the next best thing. I recorded that CD five years ago. Many of the songs were written five years before that. I played everything on the CD, including programming the drum machine, which is the small square thing you can see in the studio picture. That picture shows everything I used to record the CD, except for an acoustic guitar.

This song’s about my ex-girlfriend. You know who you are. Really, I doubt she’s ever read this blog. I haven’t seen her in years. She’s now married to an indie rock star.

So, here’s to the new phase of Ash Tree. I’m really excited about this.
