"Rich, raw poetry. Randy Black is a musical Jack Kerouac. His
nocturnally bent style has a rugged realism and brooding urgency." -
Boston Globe
"Listeners who like to be challenged once in a while should show
their appreciation." - Performing Songwriter
Randy Black's songs acknowledge and embrace human limitations. A
strong fingerstyle guitarist, his writing is tough, literate and
heartful.
Randy Black
(Waterbug)
"The man of stamina stays
with the root
Below the tapering,
Stays with the fruit
Beyond the flowering;
He had his no and he has his yes."

"It's what you've lost that makes you what you are, it ain't what you
got," from "What You've Lost." From "Winter:"
You are the look on mama's face when baby is just born
A look that baby never sees
I'm a breadcrumb in your bag
Sprinkling on the ground
Eroding by degrees
You're the piano in the parlor
In a house full of song...
