Northern New Mexico Music: March 2008

DON RICHMOND no man's land

This is Don's album from 2002. My favorites on this album are... I like it that way, I don't want to say too much, and no man's land.

I like it that way.
Ordinary things.
I don't want to say too much.
No borders.
No man's land.
Read the signs.
That's why you come home.
They think that you can't tell.
Wide open.
Born at the finish line.
Each and every person.
I'm told Don is working on a new CD and that is something to really look forward to. For more information about Don's music go to Don Richmond
