FUN LOOK AT A LADY HANG-GLIDERWritten by VJ Gibson
Women can be sports widows when husbands take to tube, but what’s a man to do when his lady love is a hang-glider? Cyril May and Jack McDonald explore this question in their playful tune, Macho Mountain Mama on their CD, "Off The Beaten Track."‘When warm winds from valleys Sweep on up mountain side When thermals are a pumping all around When birds are all grounded ‘Cause wind’s too rough to fly Then Macho Mountain Mama’s up there flyin’ high.’ In song, Cyril’s lyrics show a real appreciation for adventurous woman obsessed with a pastime that leaves her man far below. But a twinge of jealousy for her high-flying freedom comes through as well. The lilting instrumentals add bounce to piece, and keep our feet tapping along in time. Jack McDonald adds his special arrangements to mix, and result is a musical romp.

And it doesn’t have a vaccination for your behind It’s mighty catching and its pure hell As pain in your wallet will plainly tell. You got gas pump fever from waiting in gas pump line"A down to earth singer, and songwriter, Cyril May and his musical cohort Jack McDonald make a timely statement with "Gas Pump Fever", creating lyrics we sing along to, and Jack’s lilting musical arrangements providing cheerful flavor.
