Random mix of songs

16 years ago, when Ellen and I had just started dating, we heard this song on the radio and she mentioned she really liked it.  So, as our first Valentine's day approached, I gathered my friends and worked up the entire thing.  We surprised her with it at the campus cafeteria.  I finally transferred from the cassette recording, so apologies for all the noise and blurriness.

In honor of my hero, Richard Swift - a little improvised evening prayer, a la sm57, tube pre, and four track cassette recorder.

Thank you Mr. Swift
