    "Heckuva Day" sounds a heckuva lot better on vinyl... especially marbleized green vinyl.

    The 45 features "Heckuva Day" with "Get Yourself Together" on the flipside. Both tracks are from my current album, Sea of Clouds.

    With a retro design for the label, and a classic ol' white dustsleeve, you'll be able to fool your friends into believing that these songs were released in the same year as numbers like "A Little Bit of Soap" by the Jarmels and "Please Mr. Postman" by the Marvelettes. What's better than that.

lyrics

Near the spot where you came to proudly raise your head and hail the sun one more time
Near the spot you were born and surely will return at least the part you're leaving behind

You chose where you chose perhaps for those before you, or perhaps no reason in mind
And this place was all yours, but surely you would share it with the folks who came around from time to time

And the grass will grow around and through and over where you thought it best to go
And the dandelions, dragonflies, cranes and deer will all be through a billion to a trillion more times
Perhaps you know all that before
Perhaps it didn't make a difference
Perhaps it made you come here all the more
