Generally, with this segment, I try to start with a video that has the music in it.  Unfortunately all of the youtube videos of Joel P West kind of sucked.  So, instead I'll just start talking.

I've posted one of the songs (Written On The Breeze) here, if you want to check it out before you download

Something Makes Us Move is the first album by artist Joel P West. (The "P" is important, I found out when I tried to Wikipedia "Joel West", wrong guy)  It's a GREAT folksy record, I can't stop listening to it.

It's available for free at his website: joelpwest.com

Also on his website, is a link to his new album, which I'm going to talk about later, as well as his illustrations (used at the top of this post)  and photography.

Or, just click the album art below to go straight to the download link.

The record is also available on iTunes if you want to buy it.  After hearing it I think you might.

Also, I want to give credit to Nicholas Scimeca for talking about Joel on his blog, because that's how I found out about him.  Check out nicholasscimeca.com
