Original Music by John Bossmann


GROUP 1

“In My Blood” (3:58) - A powerful minor key rock ballad about separation and hope.

“A World of My Own” (4:28) - A driving melodic beat with a strong hard-hitting chorus

“Strawberry Blue” (3:08) - A dynamic mysterious seductive song.

“Nowhere” (3:09) - A simple honest love song from the heart. 

“When You’re Good to Me” (2:52) - A minor key double-edged love song that rocks.

“The Meaning of Love” (3:00)  - An up tempo ¾ time folk-rock song, with a simple melodic 12-string musical break. 

“Maybe I Will” (3:26) - A slow distinct mellow “time free” guitar intro, with a sleepy melody and a dreamy bridge.

“Stricken” (2:50) - A mid-tempo major key song about an encounter with love.

“Where Did It Go” (3:20) - A slow constant minor key beat, with a melody lyric that longs for days gone by. 

“Music Box” (3:58)  - A reflective folk song featuring acoustic guitar, banjo, and a hard-hitting chorus with a celestial ending, that drifts into space.

“Meet Me at the Gate” (4:36) - A blue-grass up-tempo foot tapper with, banjo, pedal steel, mandolin, and a memorable sing-along chorus.  (Special thanks to Keith McCabe on mandolin)

“It’s Not Me” (3:33) - An up-tempo folk-rock anthem.

GROUP 2

“Enjoy the Ride” (2:25) - A positive melodic upbeat song with a bright 12-string instrumental break.

“Take Good Care of the Sunshine” (3:50) - A mellow dreamy groove with an “island” feel and a hint of melancholy.

Hollywood Scenes (3:43) - A dark driving beat gives a glittering glimpse of “Tinsel town’s” underbelly, with a Byrds-like 12-string solo and all the hooks required for any song with “Hollywood” in the title. 

“Out of My Mind” (3:19) - A fun shuffle with a unique melody and a John Lennon-like whistling break.

“Coco Bean” (4:04) - A rhythmic dance through a treacherous cartoon jungle, with a catchy chorus that makes you sing along to groovy percussion and jungle sounds. 

“Natural Resource”  (3:25)  - Environmental anthem with a hard-hitting chorus, cutting Rickenbacker 12-string, steel guitar, and a banjo that rocks.

“It’s Gonna Catch Up to You” (2:22) - A simple distinct offbeat melody with an upbeat reggae-like groove. 

“Where am I Going Blues” (4:17) - A standard blues progression from a non-standard humorous perspective.  

“It’s So Good to Be Here” (3:20) - A simple, fun, upbeat melody, and a mellow festive feel-good celebration of the here and now. 

“When I Get Famous” (3:32) - A frivolous nonsensical straight-ahead rocker for the selfie-crowd.
