about

In 2013, I almost lost my love and devotion to music completely. Ever since then, it has been rocky and fill with turmoil, guilt and sadness even when I am full force into my music.

Joseph Brian Medrano was the lead guitar player in the band I had been apart of for nearly an entire decade. We played together, wrote songs together and were on the road together. He passed away due to a massive seizure in the summer of 2013.

After this, I had no more drive to do music. I almost sold everything music related I had until my Wife stopped me. It wasn't until 2017 that I finally got myself together and started doing music again. Somehow I came across this Folk song and thought it described my situation perfectly.

I changed the melody, the words and the theme of the original tune. In a sense, I do see it as an original work because I only see my heart and grief in it now. If someone asked me to play this in a traditional way, with all due respect, I don't think I could.

It rings even more true in my goals and aspirations with music. No matter how much I want my music to matter, I will always feel guilty that Joey is not here with me to enjoy it or to help me out. Hopefully, this song makes some sort of amends for that but I don't think I'm done mourning him yet.

LYRICS:

All the Good Times are Passed and Gone
All the Good Time are Over
All the Good Times are Passed and Gone
Darling don't you weep no more

I wish to God I had never been born
Or died when I was young
I'd never have to see you close your eyes
Or heard your wonderful songs

All the Good Times are Passed and Gone
All the Good Time are Over
All the Good Times are Passed and Gone
Darling don't you weep no more

Don't you hear that lonesome train
Rolling around the bend
Taking me away from the one that I loved
Never to return again

All the Good Times are Passed and Gone
All the Good Time are Over
All the Good Times are Passed and Gone
Darling don't you weep no more

Come back to me my dearest Friend
Stay a while with me
If I ever had a friend to love
You would be that friend to me

All the Good Times are Passed and Gone
All the Good Time are Over
All the Good Times are Passed and Gone
Darling don't you weep no more
