Hi! I'm a guitarist, singer and songwriter currently living in Fredericton, N.B., Canada. I've been performing music in one way or another since the mid '60's, starting out singing tenor in a barbershop quartet with my brothers and then into a progression of bands playing rock, jazz, blues and country and... whatever. It's been a fun ride so far and I'm still as exited about it as the day I began. Ralph Atkinson

Lyrics
Well I know you've seen the rain and I've splashed my way through a puddle or two maybe we're a lot the same just two people muddlin' through but you still have a lot of love to give so cast away your fear and start to live and when you do, baby don't hold it back maybe you've got toys in the attic leftover junk from a love affair that you never threw out or maybe you just don't care and you know I've got a bad reputation but I've given up trying to live up to it I've spent a lifetime banging' on that old rock and roll now I need a measure of your smooth funky soul so don't hold it back no baby, don't ya hold it back don't hold it back it ain't no good if you're holding' it back and you know that we're livin' in crazy troubled times but if we're together we can ease each other's minds it's oh so easy to get tangled up in pride but baby, you can't keep it all inside don't hold it back please, don't hold it back baby, don't hold it back it ain't right to hold it back
