    Here are 3 of my recordings, original songs with some literary connection.

    1. ALICE.This one builds on her going through the looking glass.

    2. TRISTAN AND ISOLDE. My folk song about the famous lovers.

    3. SUMMERTIME. Perfect for this time of year. The song is from Gershwin's Porgy and Bess.

    Best when you use headphones.

    When I was recording these, I made a point of making the lyrics easy to hear and understand. The first two are originals.
    Thanks for listening.

    WOW! You did one of those too!

    My first album, "Opening A Channel" starts with a tune about that as
    well...and it's a 'sequel' to Jefferson Airplanes' Grace Slick (she's one
    of my favorites) tune "White Rabbit", entitled "Mirrorworld".

    Great subject matter for a song!

    Grace Slick started it with "White Rabbit", so the least I could do was go forward with that into the "Mirrorworld" i.e. Through The Looking Glass.
