Details:
How could you not be at least mildly curious about someone who has written for diverse acts such as Rod Stewart, Snoop Dog, Peter, Paul & Mary, Bobby Womack and Hawaiian legends Kalapana; and who's taken insights from his world travels and crafted them into intimate musical portraits.

About the PASS IT ON recording:
"Pass it On" is a rich and sophisticated musical patina paints the sound with acoustic guitars, choral harmonies, and synthesizers providing the frame for Payne's husky heartfelt vocals. In the world of Harold Payne the songs are
most important elements, ("the song is king" he states simply), and the ten selections on "Pass It On" are so genuine and natural they sound as if they may have written themselves. The chance encounter, the moment that might
have been, the distance between lovers, physical and emotional, and the solitary view where the city lights recede from the window of an airplane and blend into the stars over a dark ocean are all here!"
