Unbelievable Candy by C. Cunningham The simple times The simple tune of a carousel Spinning on a hill I know I will wake up if I ask her name I want her She’s unbelievable, unbelievable candy Try once more, I am not tired. Unbelievable, unbelievable Please put your kisses In a bundle I can carry home, I can carry home I want you She’s unbelievable, unbelievable candy In a package I can carry home

Extinguish All Useless Lights by C. Cunningham And if the sun stayed down now and all around there was only night And waterfalls from heaven would extinguish all useless light- The light from your eyes would be all I need to see the love you've given to me. A thousand faces floating in the ice of my memories are melting in the waters of this lover's sea, this lover's sea Who turns the key that turns you on? Who turns the key that turns you on? If I do now, will you stay with me? If I do now, will you stay with me? The light from your eyes will be all I need to see the love you've given to me. A thousand faces floating in the ice of my memories are melting in the waters of this lover's sea, this lover's sea this lover's sea, this lover's sea Who turns the key that turns you on? Who turns the key that turns you on? If I do now, will you stay with me? If I do now, will you stay with me? Who holds the key that turns you on? Who turns the key that turns you on? If I do now, will you stay with me? If I do now, will you stay with me? If I do now, will you stay with me? If I do now, will you stay with me? I'm in the lover's sea.

Walking into the Lightning by C. Cunningham There's a glimmer on the shimmerstrasse tonight All the taxis are waiting in the drizzle Love is the jones that flows my eyes, walking into the lightning I'm in no mood to compromise, walking into the lightning I doubt I'll find any sleep tonight, walking into the lightning I'll be your grey man I'll be your ghost Always home, but never there Often naked, but never laid bare Thank you for your face beneath your face beneath your face We met on the crest of a crater We made love through the holes in a chain link fence We slept under the cracked dome above and woke in the darkness drenched I'll be your grey man I'll be your ghost Always home, but never there Often naked, but never laid bare Thank you for your face beneath your face beneath your face The jokes on you Love is the jones that flows my eyes, walking into the lightning

about

Songs From A Chamber is a short collection of recordings that were previously released through several band and solo projects I was involved with in New York City between the late 80s and early 90s.This was a very transitional time for me, both as an artist and as a man. I was very fortunate to have been able to collaborate with some truly remarkable musicians and composers in that time, and the large amount of my life that I spent on the road performing and recording all over the world helped shape the way I now listen, improvise, think, and feel.
