On My Way To Crazy

from Tweakin' Some Twang by John Lee Sanders

about

Here's a song about a guy who needs some serious therapy after his marriage and family falls apart, and wants a new life, Fast car, a new town, but the ghosts of the past won't let him let go, perhaps I'm projecting here, But his solution is to hit the road, start from scratch somewhere, far away from a small town, where the gossip train grapevine, facebook, Twitter, knows every little explicit detail, of the who, where and why, and old friends take sides from one spouse or the other.

I thought this CD needed a serious rocker, and my friends Chris Caswell and Michael Decroix helped me come up with this one. Went through a few different incarnations, and kept getting more intense with each version, and finally got that live kick ass rock and roll band I was going for

I added my friend Lyle Workman on Guitar, who's one of the best,
We did movie soundtracks together in San Jose, since then he's been working with Sting, Wrote some killer soundtracks, Get him to the Greek, 40 year old Virgin, Superbad, and some great series on Netflix. Bruce Kaphan taking it to the edge on Pedal Steel, Dallis Craft, Lead Singer in the Bruce Willis Band. When I put the harmonies together, I was channeling John Lennon and Paul McCartney, where I learned to sing harmony, learning both parts of their songs.
