    Singer-Songwriter Chuck Brunicardi ignites a new sound.
    Produced by Mario Caldato, Jr at MCJ Sound LA in 2015.
    "Devil An Angel" is a new track inspired by a trip to Stonehenge Chuck took while on med school break in 1977.
    Perhaps it is no coincidence the record hole on the Stonehenge label art eclipses the moon from famed surgeon Dr. James Macho's photo "Moon Over Stonehenge" taken the very day this EP went to press. And so, another "Stonehenge Phenom" was born.

    This soulful production reinvents 3 songs featured on Chuck's Pulitzer Prize in Music nominated debut CD, "Where Sunset Meets The Beach". There is magic in the air!
    Bonus items: Photos: Stonehenge Phenom Story, "Moon Over Stonehenge" cover and label art, Lyrics.

DEVIL AN ANGEL The gift of charm came my way with the wind A sudden chill as some pool I'd fallen in Blue bolts of fire stirred my desires The moment your eyes met mine The angel of night sat perched on the throne Captured my soul with cold lapis stone For blessing I yearn but soon I would learn The angel a devil would be To have those wings fly within my home I'd give anything woo I sold my soul Pearls dropped in a pool, I gave like a fool To be left all alone to burn The dark of night I lay an empty shell The price I paid for the angel was hell Oh to have one more chance I'd run to dance the dance The angel a devil would be The angel a devil would be

Do Not Stand 02:48
Do Not Stand Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there; I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond’s glint on snow, I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn’s rain. When you awaken in the morning’s hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circle flight. I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there; I did not die. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there; I did not die

Roland 05:20
Roland Down in Georgia’s A railroad track Where they caught him And they brought him back Roland ran away From the boxcar With his hands in chains Forlorn with a look of shame Roland ran away Why he’d leave Will always be In my mind A mystery Why he’d leave His world behind Children, home And lovin’ wife Children, home And lovin’ wife Roland ran away Roland worked at the hardware store Mixin’ thinners for the paints he’d pour Drop by drop he’d watch the colors change Velvet hues round in circles spun Spin, spinnin’ til the work day done Purple trails be swirlin’ through his brain No one there knew Roland’s mind A genius of the savant kind Pretty Jenny’s in the back Teased him there behind the stacks Teased him there behind the stacks Roland ran away Roland hopped aboard A southbound train Southbound in the pourin’ rain Lightnin’ lightin’ up the fields around Some ole timer was in the back Pulled a harp from a red plaid sack Started singin’ “boy your’re freedom bound” But back home the worries start Where was Roland after dark Police saw him board that train This confused poor sweet Lorraine This confused poor sweet Lorraine Roland ran away

Never a Father I was never a father There were times I wished I’s one From the unknown He was sired I would raise him As my son I would throw Him on my shoulder We would walk down to the sea Felt his weight As he grew older A million questions for me There was something In this young man I had never seen before He was being driven By some haunting, silent source If I asked him Of his visions He would turn And shake his head As if he didn’t know the answer Or that it was better left unsaid I was never a father But I’m glad I wasn’t one The crushing pains And the sorrows When you lose Your only son He hugged me And I said, goodbye, son He turned so I wouldn’t see the tears I watched him fade On the horizon His arm a’wavin Out to me
