I collaborated with Michael Odom, of Charlotte, NC.
He originally sent me an instrumental accompaniment he was working on.
Wondered if I would be interested in writing some lyrics.

Listened to the instrumental track and got a western vibe from it.
When inspiration struck, I began to write on a psychological western theme.
A narrative about an old west person being confronted by their past.
Which comes as an ominous vision, initiated by a passing tumbleweed.

So, on the track, I do a guitar solo in the Bridge section.
Michael plays all other instruments and does all the vocals.
In addition to the guitar solo, I wrote the original lyrics/theme, and
helped with arranging the song. Lyrics pasted below.

Steve


Title: Tumbleweed Vision
Music/Lyrics: Michael Odom/Steve "Sketch" Lundgren
Track time: 3:30 Tempo: 144 BPM

Verse 1
All I am hearing
Mirage appearing
And now my past is haunting me

Out on the prairie
Things look so dreary
Dark clouds are suffocating me

Chorus
Tumbleweed vision
Demands decision
Suddenly had come for me

Bridge

Verse 2
Appeared out of nowhere
Then it just stands there
Waiting for me to retreat

Never again went down...
returned to that town...
Couldn't be in that place again

Streets I had fought on
Thought I had forgotten
Everything that happened to me

I just came across the obituary for Carl Davis. (He died from a brain hemorrhage a couple of weeks ago.) It brought to mind his magnificent work in The World At War.
