I
can never remember a time when I didn't sing. At five
years old, I remember following my Mother down a cotton row,
singing and making up songs. As a teenager, I started
making music and writing songs in earnest. I wrote about
the things I knew best. Home, work, family devotion, and
things spiritual and patriotic. Nowadays I write about
Cowboys and the things that make their lifestyle so unique.
I wrote seven of the songs on this
album. the title song "Waltz of the Rainbows" was written
especially for Janet, my lifetime partner, and light of my life.
Then to fill out the album, I chose some of my favorite
classics.
"Whispering Hope" is my Mother's
favorite, and "Prairie Lullaby" for my wife Janet. Through
the years, they have been my two most ardent cheerleaders.
Thanks to Emmit Brooks for his
professional expertise and friendship and thanks to all the
great musicians who helped make this album possible. Then,
last, but certainly not least, thanks to all my wonderful
friends and loyal fans, who continue to give me a reason to keep
doing what I love to do so much. God bless you all.
Love,
