Chris West Releases Surprise Trilogy 3
December 12, 2011
Join Chris West in celebrating the release of the third and final album of The Surprise Trilogy on Wednesday, Dec 14, 2011.
The Surprise Trilogy is a project that West has been working on since mid 2008. The initial idea was a more organic, straight ahead follow-up album to his funky/acid jazz first release, Jazzmanic.
As he was slowly recording the songs for consideration (recording 2-3 songs at a time, once a month), West realized that he had written a lot of songs over the years, and wanted to record them all, if for nothing else, to archive. Eventually, he decided to record and release them all as The Surprise Trilogy.
This show will be held at the WO Smith Music School, located at 1125 8th Avenue South
Nashville, TN. It is on the corner of 8th Ave. and Edgehill. The show starts at 7pm.
In addition to special guests, the band will include:
Jon Paul Frappier – Trumpet
Chris Dunn – Trombone
Mason Embry – Keys
Pat Bergeson – Guitar
Jerry Navarro – Bass
Bob Harsen – Drums
$10 gets you in the door AND a copy of the CD!
Suprise Trilogy 3 will be available in both CD and digital download format shortly after the release party date from Chris West’s website.

Chris West Blog – A Small Favor
August 25, 2011
Hello!
I am writing to ask for a small favor.
As you may know, I now have my first three CDs (Jazzmanic, The Surprise Trilogy Discs 1 and 2) for sale on my website. I also have them listed on Amazon, and iTunes.
If you have a minute, please stop by iTunes and/or Amazon and write a quick review and rate my albums. This could potentially help translate into more sales, gigs, and if nothing else, greater exposure and visibility of my music. I have posted links to the albums on Amazon below. Reviews on iTunes can be posted via the iTunes store.
Make no mistake, I would prefer you to make your purchases of my music (CD and Digital Downloads) from my website directly, since I get 100% of the purchase price to help fund subsequent recordings. The other sites typically take 30% or more from each purchase.
Additionally, I am in the process of manufacturing The Surprise Trilogy Disc 3 CDs. I am planning on releasing the album in December. I am very excited about it and looking forward to sharing all of my new music with you!
Thanks so much for all of your continued support, and make sure you stop by the website and check my upcoming Calendar dates, I have some exciting shows coming up.
The Surprise Trilogy Disc 1 on Amazon
The Surprise Trilogy Disc 2 on Amazon

Just Say The Word – Lee Gibson ©2011
Never one to leap before I looked
Only God above could know the time I took
To make up my mind on a matter of this kind
You’d think by now I could’ve wrote a book.
She was ready – Maybe I was, too.
Instead of stepping up, Lord, I sat there like a fool.
These decisions that we make, well, they require a leap of faith.
If you’ve ever been in love you’ve been there, too.
But I waited – hesitated, ‘til I just don’t know
If we’ll make it into next year or 5 days down the road
If I knew then what I know now no doubt I’d had the nerve
And all I had to do was say the word
You always think you have an extra day
How was I to know she’d slip away
When love is masked with fear & all she wants to hear
Are the simple words you were too scared to say
But I waited – hesitated, ‘til I just don’t know
If we’ll make it into next year or 5 days down the road
If I knew then what I know now no doubt I’d had the nerve
And all I had to do was say the word
If I knew then what I know now no doubt I’d had the nerve
And all I had to do was say the word
All I had to do…

My Country Song – Ashley Ramps, Lee Gibson ©2011
Summer days & John Deere tractors
Front porch swings & ever afters sounds good
Her sweet arms holdin on to me
Sittin’ beneath a cottonwood tree sounds good
Just another song on the radio
Taking me to that place I want to go
Chorus:
4-wheel drives & sweet ice tea
Red dirt roads, just my baby and me
Nowhere to go and all day to get there
Lookin’ at her, caught her looking at me
So in love just the way it should be
Acting like we didn’t have a care
Where nothing can go wrong
I was living a country song
Cloudless nights & big bright stars
George Strait songs on my guitar sound good
Holding hands in the back of my truck
Our first kiss with any luck sounds good
Just another song on the radio
Taking me to that place I want to go
Repeat Chorus
We all know that’s one big fantasy
Then I wake up to what’s in front of me.
Empty house where we once loved
Broken dreams – was I not enough
Nowhere to go and all day to get there.
Pictures of us laying on the floor
Memories of you walking out the door
Acting like you never even cared
Who knew all along I was living my country song
Who knew all along I was living my country song
