I don't think I ever thought I'd be blogging weekly in this space. Up until now I've been hard at work writing, composing, recording, and mixing. I'm still doing all of that. However, today I've uploaded an album of 21 songs of my musical Life and After and it should be available for streaming, but apparently it's not. Everything shows correctly in the site editor and I've clicked publish which is supposed to put it online, but when I load my page what shows is just one song and it says "coming soon." I'm not sure what it means because I didn't delete that song I just changed what should be shown on the page to my album Life and After (which includes the song in question). What this tells me is that clicking publish deleted the instructions to show the one song, but apparently showing the entire album doesn't work. Sorry, for the reality of web site frustrations.
In good news only one song remains to finish, the big nut of Act 2, The Life Review. I've written the text and have started in on the music. I'm still in the piano/voice demo stage but I'm making progress. All I need is time. Of course the inclusion of the Life Review means I need to change other songs a bit. I've decided to take out verse 2 of Everything I've Done because most of that will be covered in The Life Review. While I hope that will just mean a bit of editing these things are never easy.
Other changes I'm contemplating. Include a breakdown section in We're on Top of the World and rewrite Clear as Glass to make it sound happier and more fun !
