The Family

Sure had a fun weekend playing The Reed Family Christmas show at one of favorite places to play-Libbys Cabaret with my favorite acoustic bass player-Ramon Pooser-check out www.ramonpooser.com for more about him. Really enjoyed listening to The Family sing accapella. This is a real highlight of the year.

I know the song is up twice. I was real happy with the lyrics and felt inspired about it so It's up once for Thanksgiving and one more time in Gratitude for the spark of creativity that inspires songs to be written.

Gratitude

GRATITUDE J+M Graham

Gratitude for all we have
Gratitude for all we’ve lost
Gratitude for what we’ve learned
Life’s lessons sometimes seem to cost
A lot in blood and sweat and tears
But God can help us conquer fear
I’ve realized that life is but a journey
not a destination
And if your feeling down and blue
That’s the time to be grateful you
Have got the will to change yourself
By looking deep within and finding

Gratitude for the ones you love
Gratitude for God above
Gratitude for the earth and sea
The animals the birds and bees
While living life just don’t forget
To take some time and to reflect
On ways to see the good in things
Appreciation always brings
New ways to learn and rise above
Petty things like push and shove
Tune into universal love
Look in your soul and find yourself in

Gratitude for your fellow man
Gratitude try and understand
The yin and yang the ebb and flow
Just watch life’s mysteries unfold
But as you do remember ways
To celebrate and to give praise
We really are one in the same
So share the joy, not hurt or pain
We can have it all the choice is ours
So find your bliss underneath the stars
Let God’s Good shine like the sun above
Pause be still and find some love and Gratitude

Thank you God
Thank you God
Thank you God

Happy Thanksgiving

What a Halloween party we had. Sure was fun. The highlight for me was the debut of the Graham family band with Janna on drums Bill on guitar, me on keys and vocals and for the first time ever Mindy on electric bass. We did 2 songs and I look forward to more in the future, Just call us The Partridge Family of the future.
Other than that I've been doing some solo gigs and looking forward to some intersting combinations this month one of the with my 2 favorite bass players. Bill Hatcher on electric and Ramon Pooser on acoustic.
