God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

God rest ye merry gentlemen? I suppose that means -- God, please help calm our restlessness? Hmmm... what would make people restless? Political turmoil, severe storms and a global economy in chaos?

A Heavenly Piece About Heavenly Peace

What do you get when you take a few bars or Silent Night and mix it together with photos from the Hubble Telescope? Heavenly Peace.

The pictures of space include the farthest and the most powerful objects ever seen. It helps me to remember how small I really am.

Silver Bells

Now, this one goes way back. It was recorded in the attic... on an old fashion tape player... and shows that monsters really can have a heart. A special note to drummers: the family dog loves to get his belly scratched and wouldn't leave us alone during the recording. So, we used his belly and a set of wire brushes to keep time.
