It's that time of year when we love all kinds of people. Let's face it, we have people we love whole-heartedly. As for the people that make life harder for us, we pay attention because their stories are unique. NOTHING AT ALL is a Gentle Giant song about a female crazy maker. It's special because it's a radio edit by mixer to the Prog Stars Steven Wilson. Every other song is about all the different love we have for all the different people! Happy holidays!!!!

Electric violin and guitar-driven rock song about parenting, and missing his son while he's on the road. This month Joe is posting on his social media, asking friends for song ideas for his Spotify list on family, togetherness, holidays, friendship, feel good.
