Contrary to the often popular view that I am a calculating, emotionless logic machine, I do have some feelings. And, unsurprisingly, music has the ability to bring some to the foreground. The songs on this album were all generally chosen because each holds for me some strong association with my pop. This section of the website is a place where I might spout more of the specific thoughts that are behind the songs.

While you may not care per sé about my feelings on this matter, I would urge you to read over my stories anyway--especially since you took the trouble to load this page in the first place. On the one hand, your own unique memory of Pat might be sparked by my observations of the past and, hopefully, cause a fond smile or two. On the other hand, understanding better the reasons for each song's inclusion oughta' improve your listening experience!

So, please read on. I am also always interested in your own reactions: send me an email, if you get the chance.
