Deed from seller William Stone to buyer Jane J. Stone for land in Camden, N.J.

On Mental Hill is a compilation of songs written by J.H. Stone over the past decade. Many of these works take the form of poetry as much as song, and a handful have been recorded and performed solo or with a band. This songbook is about introspection and forming identity, and helps provide color to the continuum of human flaws, emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. We all exist day-to-day, minute-by-minute somewhere on a so-called mental hill, often unconsciously so. The higher we reach on mental hill, the more creative and perhaps lonelier we become. We may never know our elevation above "normalcy," or ground level, and these songs are an optimistic and uplifting take on this inner struggle.
