Folk/acoustic music, that asks many social questions as well as attempting to capture the great many realms of human experience, using poetical type lyrics, backed up by catchy melodies and soulful and upbeat rhythms. Using a Latin style rhythm, ‘I’f I’m here in the morning, Can I come on in’ sees nature as a part of ourselves, 'its mountain body' and asks it for permission to experience it rather than man's beliefs that he could do with it as he pleases. In 'Ship of fools', nature is again alive and asks whether Mother nature has turned to rage, for abusing it, as in the sudden outbreak of Hurricanes and other natural disasters. Despite all these factors, 'Man's madness won't recede 'Likewise in the song, 'Make love man's aim' man is seen as 'the poor lost soul on the horizon, with his tangled cables, and his distorted antenna'.

Various love songs capture the magic of lovemaking in 'Welcome to the mystery' in which a silk dress is the vital element that is 'the blessing for the day and a rainbow on our way; 'In the song 'Watch that blue moon',' My precious jewel is alive again, her lips like tulips curl up and around mine'. Te song 'The Never Ending River' explores the idea of life being like a 'never ending river, not knowing which way it might turn'. 'Fly away on an angel's wing' looks at a relationship in which the man (although it could equally be a woman) drains the life out of the other one, 'See the dream catcher, he's watching all your moves, till you've nowhere left to hide'. The chorus resolves the dilemma the woman is faced with, one should 'fly away on an angel's wing, the one that you might find'. Style and tone is Joni/Van meets Dylan with Donovan and Cat Stevens thrown in.
