"Whitewater" is about whitewater rafting. The patterns swirl and change constantly, in a driving rhythm. Hold on tight! This one moves fast.
The album's title song, "Shades of Gray" has a couple of meanings. First, my music is hard to categorize. When I have to pick a genre to describe it, it's difficult. There are elements of folk, blues, jazz, and even rock in it. This song is a perfect example of a driving, constant bass beat from Delta blues to some very jazzy harmonies. The second meaning is that, as a guitarist who has played and composed music for almost 50 years, I have grown old and gray in the process! It has been a lifelong labor of love.
