Bluesy Southern Jazz Rock Vocal and Instrumental music. Songs about you and me and other real people. Genuine Music - Made in America.
Most of the music here is music that I have written, which is my passion - writing and playing guitar centric music with lyrics that speak to and about real people. While I spent a lot of time on the road in my younger days and played with a lot of great musicians and opening acts, I've been back at it for a few years after a really long hiatus.

Story behind the song
This song, while on the "strange tales" side, sort of wrote itself, which added to the spookiness of the tune.
Lyrics
The Girl In The Photograph – D. Crowley Under the Dust of Ages He found a Book with Dog Eared Pages Leather Bound and Worn From All the Years Inside A Faded Photograph With Faded Writing on the Back With Love, I Miss You, Please Come Home A Girl That Looked Into His Eyes A Face That Took Him By Surprise And Held His Gaze Across the Span of Time He Knew It Simply Couldn’t Be And Yet It Was So Plain To See He Knew He Loved Her - Loved Her At First Sight Chorus: How Could He Love. A Girl He Never Knew A Girl Who Passed This Way Before His Time With Eyes That Burned With Fire And Filled Him With Desire Why Was She So Familiar In His Mind Then He Found the Words She Wrote On A Tattered Tear Stained Note I’ve Been Waiting. Lonely For So Long You Said You Would Come To Me Before The Leaves Fell From The Trees I Promised I’d Be Waiting Here For You But That Was Years Ago Has Your Loved Grown Cold Or Will You Someday Walk In Through The Door The Decades Came and Went And A Letter Never Sent And He Wonder How She Waited For So Long Repeat Chorus: A Cold and Dying Ember Why Couldn’t He Remember Why Did She Seem To Haunt Him So This Way Her Sadness Cut Him Like a Knife Did He Know Her In Another Life He Felt As If He Almost Knew Her Name He Whispered As He Closed His Eyes Forgive Me I Apologize Then He Felt As If He Drifted Back In Time Then The Girl In The Photograph Said I Always Knew You Would Come Back And He Finally Took Her In His Arms Again Repeat Chorus:
