High And Dry by Radiohead

I think this is one of the most beautiful and honest love songs about true love. It's about a lifetime together and getting older together. I first heard the stellar version recorded by Steve Goodman and recently rediscovered it to play. Thanks for listening

The Dutchman by Michael Peter Smith

John Brown's classic, performed by himself. Cello from Laura Reynolds. Richard Resnick playing piano and doing the music production (as best as he can).

Written with the idea in mind of a Kite (feathered or not) soaring and moving on the air currents.  Played on my Taran guitar in DADGAD tuning.

Kite

I started playing guitar at age 14. I had 2 lessons when I was about 10 so I knew how to tune it. My first guitar was a nylon string guitar and I put steel strings on it because I didn't know any better.  Along with the amazing violinist, Meredith Keough, we released some original music under the bandname: Merideon. Art Class was our first demo release. Working on tracks for a full album.
