This recording was made during July and August of 2025. It had been a LONG time since I last worked on a fully fleshed out recording of one of my songs. I figured it was best to start with something very old and familiar (so the recording process would be straightforward, and wouldn't turn into a bunch of meandering down blind alleys). Turns out, that was very optimistic thinking on my part, but I learned a bunch and became very motivated to work on other recordings.

Cool This Desire
I've been sloggin’ through days, ya know
And staying home at night
Saturday's movie will be as close
As I'm gonna get to life
But these meager portions, no, no
They'll no longer do
See I've found I still can dream
And my dreams come back to you
Chorus: How long, tell me how long
Until we cool this
How long, tell me how long, yeah, yeah
Until we cool this desire
I've seen your so smooth boys
They come crawling, calling
From your part of town
And I've read your friends faces
Whenever I come ’round
You try to seem indifferent
But you give yourself away
When your eyes can't meet mine
As you struggle for something to say
(Repeat chorus)
Bridge: Tell me
Tell me About sometime
Sometime very, very soon
When I'm gonna stand
Welcomed into your room
And the wait, the weight
Of this life, is gonna fall away
With the last of the day's light
The moon gets lost in darkness
But it soon grows full again
Just as every so often
Every snake is gonna shed its skin
There’ve been so many of my some days
Turned into what might have beens
And still I've got this feeling
My time is coming ‘round again,
(Repeat chorus)
Until we cool this (Until we, until we)
Cool this desire (Until we cool this darlin’)
How long? (Until we, until we)
Tell me how long (Until we cool this)
Recorded in Sep and Oct 2025, this tune is dedicated to our favorite parisian. Tu me manques, je t'aime.

When I asked folks in Nov what tune i should record next, this one got the most votes. if you're looking for something that's more in the blues rock vein, this uptempo number recorded in nov and dec might work.

Lyrics
Jackass Hill
When my love comes ‘round
you'd better step aside
You can let your eyes wander
leave your tongue tied
I know when you see who she's with
it's a bitter pill
‘Cause I'm just another fool
off of Jackass Hill
We met in a crowded hall
as she was trying to squeeze by
Sometimes a moment comes
and you just have to try
Who'd have thought, who'd have
known what I could do with sheer will
‘Cause I'm just another fool
off of Jackass Hill
The road that we're on
it straightens and it winds
I roll the window down,
and feel the breeze in my hand
While she plays with her hair
‘cause she can't sit still
And I'm grinning like some fool
up on Jackass Hill
Yeah, I'm grinning like some fool
up on Jackass Hill
who'd have thought it
who'd have Known it
I said, who'd have thought it
who'd have Known it
who'd have thought,
who'd have Known,
What I could do with sheer will
'cause I'm just another fool
off of Jackass Hill
