About Me

These compositions reflect the varied aspects of my musical personality. Most of this music you can download. I don't mind sharing. You can read more about the compositions in the first blog.

When you get a chance, visit more musicians and creative people in my friend space. I'm a big fan of music, art, and writing with strong roots or a strong feeling that creates its own kind of beauty.

Keep me posted on your work, either here or at the Eddie L. site in my friend space. You can also read some of my poems there. Thanks, and remember:
