about

I had just turned 30. I was in the suburbs. My first child was in the planning stages...I was now a Family Man: wife, house, business, and soon three children. The next 20 years of my life would be taken over by my sign business and all the activities with my children. It would be many years, without visual art or sound making. These Hit Machine sessions were to be the last time I would see my band mates. These songs would be the last band sessions for another 20 years of my life.

lyrics

I'm Just a Family Man
I Do the Best That I Can!
When your down in the jungle
There's no home or order
I'm Just a Family Man
I Do the Best That I Can
In a world that is not very friendly
He does the best that he can.
I am.
I am
I Am A Family Man..I Do The Very Best That I Can!!
