简介

Ive had an interesting life, I got the name Midnight Rider when a friend mntioned it in a slip of the tongue. "Hmm" I thought, "thats a nice name I like it" I recall in the 70's the band the Allman bros had a song called Midnight Rider and it seemed a nice image to me. Ive spent a lifetime writing songs through many stages of this earthly realm. I gained some spiritual insights sometimes and put them in my songs, such as the song on this collection called THE TEMPLE - if Im permitted Ill put the lyrics here, THERE IS A TEMPLE IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR HEART ITS NOT ANY RELIGION ITS WHERE THE TEARDROPS START WHERE THE SUN IS SHINING YOUR TEARS CAN FALL LIKE RAIN AND THOSE FIELDS OF FLOWERS GROW FROM ALL YOUR PAIN THERE IS A TEMPLE IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR HEART HOW CAN WE GET TO IT THRU THE BRIARS AND SHRUBS OUR FEET CAN GET CUT AND OUR BODIES CAN GET BRUISED BUT THERE IS A PATHWAY IF WE LEARN TO LOVE OURSELVES KNEEL DOWN IN THE TEMPLE KNEEL DOWN IN THE TEMPLE YOU CAN CONTACT YOUR ANGELS IN THE TEMPLE OF YOUR HEART THERE IS A TEMPLE IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR HEART WRITTEN ON THE STAINED GLASS WINDOWS IS ITS GONNA BE ALLRIGHT DONT WORRY BOUT THOSE THINGS THAT DIDNT WORK ON OUT YOUR STANDIN ON HOLY GROUND AND ALL THE WRONGS'LL BE MADE RIGHT CH SOLO BR/BR and I believe that. This song like COMET OVER LONDON SKIES I wrote in London 2012 and 2013 when I wrote maybe 400 songs, crazy eh! I just recorded them on my iPhone and flshed some of them out later. I played blues guitar in a restaurant in Newington Green called Trattoria - mostly people came to eat but now and then they'd come up and say they liked the songs In 86 i met Bob Dylan when I dropped a song off to the then Sebel Townhouse and later his management called me, it was quite weird in a way, and I met him after his show and gave him a tape. He said "I'll study it" I guess he still is haha never heard from him again but he was a big influence on my life and music, same as the Beatles. Guess thats a cliche. My kids play in bands and write songs as well Hope you like these tunes Cheers Midnight
