When recording my album “Never In Blue” (2005), I needed to get away from the songs I was working on, and decided to take on this great tune by Hoagy Carmichael. I had been sketching arrangements for years on it and thought it the best side track, breather, from my busy production schedule. Produced on … Read More »

The picture posted herein, was taken in Los Angeles July 1960 around the time of the DNC convention. Mercury Helicopters was the company where both … Read More »
More covers for the road. It’s going to be cold out there soon! Can always use some “Hickory Wind.” And – Zevon’s “Hasten Down the Wind.”

What a touching story. http://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/23902766/nasa-astronaut-ellison-onizuka-soccer-ball-survived-challenger-explosion Meanwhile.

Politico posted a uniquely poor commentary last week on the real cause of mass shootings. It’s … Read More »
You never know what’s going to come out. Or off! : 0 For the young at heart, you’re safe. Because, it’s “My Kind Of Town.” For one – Steve Goodman and, of course the Chicago Cubs. Next year cowboys! Won’t you join me.

Really enjoyed this one
What simplicity, for such a very, seemingly, complicated song. Thanks Ted Yoder.

Always discovering, Nature. In the nature!
