Song information
Recorded sometime between 2009 and 2011, this is a rock song about the man I aspire to be.

I'm still quite short of the goal, but I'm working on it!

It features my old friend Andy Mackle on the live drum kit.

Remastered by yours truly for this posting.

Enjoy!

Lyrics
TIME TRAVELER

I
I say you'll know him when you see him.
His manner will betray him.
He's the kind of guy who stands out from the crowd.
He's altogether without passion
for trend or for fashion.
He's quiet but he likes his music loud.

II
Nobody knows where he comes from,
and he ain't gonna tell them.
What they don't know won't hurt them after all.
Some folks will try to get to know you,
just so they can use you;
but he don't play those kind of games at all!

III
Although they've all tried to teach him
their lies will never reach him;
for he knows what their slick words really mean!
He's neither toady nor fool.
His course cuts straight and true,
between the poles of ideology...

IV
He'll never judge you by your party.
He's a student of the heart.
It's your character that matters most of all!
While he is faithful in friendship,
he's fearless in conflict.
He'll have your back when it's up against the wall!

V
He travels through the ages,
a-seeking out the sages,
responding to his inner mystic's call.
He is a partisan of reason, and non-dual is his vision.
His consciousness is like a crystal ball...

VI
Well world events don't hypnotize him.
He's focused on the cosmos,
so the universe will catch him if he falls!
And though some fear and hate his freedom,
and they try their best to snare him;
they're never gonna take this gypsy down!

Your lyrics point me to a Man, the second Adam. Seems to fit Him well...
Great rock tune. Your heart is in the vocals and the your hot guitar.

Thank you Matt! 
While I love playing and hearing music in a number of different genres, I'm really trying to keep the ROCK genre alive here.
Glad you like this oldie bro!

Never been a fan of juvenile rock Charlie, so I try my best to take it up a level or two in the lyrics.
It's such a powerful medium. Seems a shame to confine its content to pubescent fantasies. LOL...
Glad you enjoyed this noisier-than-usual tune my friend!

A heavy rocker for sure. Should have come with a warning , "consume morning coffee prior to listening"...ha
It is your character that attracts us to love your music. As far as taking the old gypsy down, I see a bindlestiff fearlessly navigating through the cosmos. You have no need for trend or fashion as long as you keep pumping out great tunes.

Thanks friend. RE those guitar tones. Personally I wish I had the original file stems so I could somewhat alter the "voice" on those guitars. Maybe I'm getting too old... but now, after all these years, they seem unnecessarily harsh to me. Lol...
Anyway, glad you enjoyed the tune. If memory serves, I was listening to a lot of early James Gang around the time I recorded this.
