The music of Richard Alan poetically reflects his life and experiences
with sensitivity, truth and humor. His voice touches the spirit and moves the soul.Some folks sing the stories and lives of those that they've heard about.
Richard sings his life. As so aptly put by legendary songsmith, Wayne Carson
in his tribute to Richard Alan from his song "Snowflake, Arizona" ..."I once was an actor, I once was a Marine,
I was a cowboy and a singer, among some other things,
I have seen life and love from both sides of the coin,
I've been down in the soup line,
and I've been up on the tenderloin."For most people, that is more than two lifetimes' worth of expriences; for
Richard Alan, it is merely a starting point.We at Rios Records, are proud to introduce you to Richard. So sit back, relax
and join Richard as his journey continues ..."
RICHARD ALAN'S NEW CD, “YESTERDAY'S WINE†...
....... definitely reveals a great deal about the writer himself, and also speaks volumes about so many of us caught in the same timewarp, losing like winners, spending long nights searching for a good friend, thinking of you, howling at the moon, and all the while knowing it may just be time to hit the road again and perhaps by springtime, be coming back again or going home, though it gets harder with each sip of yesterday’s wine to see which path leads where !!!
It is not at all surprising to me that the creator of so many great songs has put together such a wonderful CD, only that he has waited so long to do so …….Tom Ghent
