about

A dedication to my great friend and music mentor, Roger Jeffery who provided a wonderful recording environment at Allegro Studio Howick where my albums My Journey and half of Experience were recorded. There is something special about analogue recording and all musicians should experience this once in their life at least. No "back" or "undo" buttons here!! Also the studio could not have run so smoothly without the guiding hand of Janneke,whether through teaching or her outstanding talent on woodwind or piano. Enjoy the peace my good friends!!

lyrics

White Rocks - Words and music by Matt Young
I’d been searching for a special place to preserve a tale or two
was a man in the street who shared the news of a wonderful guy he knew ( he said)
He’ll listen to your stories, and like a baby born brand new
He’ll nurture and nourish them, still I questioned was it true
he said you don’t need no map to get there but hey don’t worry cus you will find
this place they call Allegro there’s just one, one of its kind so if you
listen up and listen well and open up your mind if you
hear a sweet melody follow your heart to the place where the white rocks shine
The day I walked into your world, do you recall our little jam?
My crafted tunes are treasures now, do you know how proud I am?
I embraced your stories too my friend, the beautiful words you sing
Never sell ye short old warrior, of the pleasures that you bring
I didn’t need no map to get there, cus I believed that I would find
the place they call Allegro they made just one, one of its kind
I listened up and I listened well and I opened up my mind
I heard a sweet melody and followed my heart to the place where the white rocks shine
As much about the music it’s the teachers that you are
you inspire us to resemble you when our journey’s gone as far
so much we need to thank you for, our humble humble friends
Your wisdom will guide us till the end
I guess I knew the day would dawn the sanctuary of sound
The haven with my first stories the curtains must come down
Enjoy the peace my good friends, please take a little bow but if I
hit a junction in the road I will listen for your sound
I know I won’t need no map to get there, cus I believe that I will find
the place they call Allegro there’s still just one, one of its kind
I will listen up and listen well till I receive the sign
I’ll hear your sweet melody and follow my heart to the place where the white rocks shine
I’ll hear your sweet melody and follow my heart to the place where the white rocks shine-end
