Lyrics are linked to the song titles below.
I originally planned to re-release my two "pre-CD" albums, "Train Going East" (1979) and "In The Barroom Light" (1985) in CD format, but decided to choose the songs from those early days which seem to have endurance and are requested at gigs from time to time. The recording of the older material turned out to be a journey back to a mind-set of the past, a revisitation of a psychological and emotional place, which I did not expect. This caused some considerable inner turmoil, which, as we all know,ultimately leads to personal growth.
Of all the recording I have done, for public release or otherwise, this one has revealed the most to me and is a source of great pride. I wish to express my sincere gratitude to Hugh Carson who encouraged me to re-record the older tunes and to Jaoa Carvalho whose strength and encouragement helped tremendously to keep things on track. Working with the fine musicians who played on the CD was very exciting and I thank them all. I hope that you enjoy this journey from past to present.
For Helen, Glenn and Jimmie
