"Turn it Up!"...........What's it about?

1 - HELLywood

2 - Turn it up!.......................................................... To create and release positive energy with music is my ultimate high. I thank god every night for my talents and allowing me to share it with the world. Whenever I'm in doubt about anything - I just Turn it up!

3 - I Just Want to Make Love to You....................................................Written by the Blues great Willie Dixon, but not made popular until the kick ass 70's Rock group "Foghat" covered it - a great song.

4 - 15 Minutes Of Fame..........................................................People underestimate Hollywood, they think it's all glamour, when in fact - it could eat you up alive.

5 - Hope and Pray.......................................................................When you can't have someone that you love so deep, it can easily turn into infatuation.

6 - I'll start the fire.....................................................................A fictitious story about a boy and girl that grew up together but were in different southwestern Indian tribes, as taboo as it might have been, they had to be together at any cost.

7 - Misbehaving in Transylvania..................................................Vampires and haunted castles are always a cool subject to write about; seduction is a very powerful tool.

8 - Groom Lake.................................................................................Area 51 always fascinated me, it's amazing how far advanced the government really is - and they're not telling us!

9 - Straightjacket blues...............................................................Inspired by one of the greatest guitar players I've ever known - Greg Garstka. He is also the man who taught me how to attack the fuck out of the guitar!

10 - Find who you are..............................................................Finding answers and becoming your own person is essential in this life, some people are fortunate to get those answers - I think I'm getting close

11 - Hard Luck.......................................................................................Finding your soul mate is trial and error - but let's face it, it's the error of bad relationships that drive you crazy!

12 - Welcome Home...........................................................One of my favorites! A very dark and mystical song that was Co-written with Thomas Salvitti who is an excellent lyricist.
