Don released his lattest album this month, April 2006. This is what he has to say about the tracks: Rain on The Wind: A song I recorded with Christy Dignam, we recorded it live, I wrote it after I read a Walter Macken book of the same name Rain on the Wind. Almost Illegal: While recording this the studio went bust we felt like we were doing something illegal, when the sheriff arrived to throw us out. Brian Downey played Drums on the track and also gave me the tune title, it’s an instrumental on harmonica.. Been Alone Too Long: A song I wrote after being released from prison at age 19, she didn't wait for me and I'm trying to go straight that's what it is about.. Help Me Work It Out: It’s about working to express myself to someone, talk shoot the breeze, beats drinking and taking pills. Jordanna: An instrumental I wrote it for my daughter Jordanna. Mama: I wrote this one about my family. We were separated as children, it’s about my mother crying and having no choice but to put my sisters in a home run by nuns, I went to Daingen an industrial school for young boys. Miss You: I wrote this for John Tierney who died at the age of 25. Gay Byrne introduced him to me many years ago, I took him under my wing. I still Miss him.. Funky Duck: Instrumental.This was written by my friend Charilie McCoy, he recorded my instrumental Jordanna and I recorded his instrumental Funky Duck Chains: I wrote this song about love addiction co-dependency, its something not talked about by the media TV, papers etc etc needed to write this.. Never Let You Down: I wrote this for my son Glen when he was a small boy, he told me he preferred Madness his favorite band at the time. 11. Winner In You This song was a big hit for me. People can’t get it but now they can, it’s on this CD, so I hope they will stop waging their fingers at me.. Duckin' and Diving': About trying to quit Drink, Stop drowning my sorrows etc etc. Wouldn't Treat a Dog: I wrote about a relationship I was in, I left because of the abuse.. Good Time Woman: I wrote this many years ago I just used my imagination never was with such a woman not yet anyway.. Dons Train: What can I say.
