The Scent of Violets

Which Road Do I Take

The Scent of Violets

Albert Bouchard, David Hirschberg & Joh W. Nassivera

Featuring Elizabeth Winge

What a great partnership for a Rock song, the drummer from Blue Öyster Cult and a quote from Mark Twain.   

I can quote you some Samuel Clemens

His words echo down from the heavens

Forgiveness is like the sweet fragrance

Violets leave on the heel that crushed it 

Apple Music

I may not be right, but I’m up for the fight

I’m not that type, don’t fall victim to the hype

Head in a Haze

Bob Bates & John W. Nassivera

What a strange sight, nothing looks quite right

Made by your hands, now that’s a silly plan

Believe your eyes, yep, best money can buy

Alan Dunham & John W. Nassivera

Featuring Alan Dunham  

Rock me with the answer I need

Roll me to a field of dreams

Not to the beat of the same old tune

Searching high and low for the perfect pitch

Giving is always the right gift

Bands make it rock Roadies make it roll

Write me a song that’s music to the soul

The bright beautiful truth that lies in me
