From The Forest Floor

A contemporary and musically organic set of songs with something for everyone. There are songs of thoughtful reflection as with the upbeat ANOTHER DAY, WHERE HAVE THEY GONE and the beautifully intense TODAY WILL NEVER END, and SHINE. Country songs: ARIZONA MORNING and PICKIN’ GOLD (which sites 86 iconic country artists). Classic rock influences with the anthem of the LA freeway system in THE 405 to THE GIRL WITH GOLDEN HANDS, the story of David’s personal friend and schoolmate the late Jan Kuehnemund who became the world famous guitar player and founder of the all woman rock band Vixen. MORNING SKY OF BLUE is a song of personal loss of his mother and friend Strider Hammer, with a sensitive beauty and hopeful ending that will soothe anyone’s sadness. THE PURPLE PRINCE is a tribute to the great musician Prince whom David worked for several times. BLOOD IN DESERT SANDS is a cut from his dramatic rock musical ISHMAEL and ISAAC– SONS OF ABRAHAM and BOHEMIA is a 16 ½ minute epic tale of the history of Bohemia and his great grandparents who migrated from the outskirts of Prague in 1863. MONEY IS NO FRIEND will please lovers of hard driving blues. This CD is a compilation of songs certain to entertain and thoughtfully engage all listeners. This is the ninth album by the singer songwriter David James Carlson who also plays all the instruments on the album and sings all the vocals except the female harmony sung by his wife Dawn LeClair on BOHEMIA.
