With the loss of his first child, a son named Conor, Eric Clapton wrote this tribute to try to deal with unspeakable loss of his child. The song resonates with anyone who has suffered a loss and has to deal with reconciliation and the realization that you must go on -- while honoring life lost. Here's our own darn version. 
Originally recorded as a very simple recording: one voice, one track, one guitar. No varnish. Just the truth, in an attempt to re-tell it in a plain jane fashion. That was the tracks first incarnation. Covered in October 2015. 
Post Script: In June of 2016, the track was brought into GarageBand to ReMix with additional instrumentation. The Mastering was then parceled out in the Grammy-Award Winning hands of emastered.com. Thanks again Collin, fine job, as usual.

Hope you like it. Comments, Shares and Likes are appreciated. Every day is precious. Enjoy yours like there's no tomorrow!

Tears In Heaven - ReMix - Michael Delgorio - eMastered

Everyone loves a good story. We've enjoyed telling them in words, pictures and music. 

Please follow MichaeldelAard here and on twitter @MichaeldelAard. We've long been moved by the rough cuts, bootlegs and demos by storied artists both past and present because they show pure emotion, high creativity unfettered by auto-tune and over-production. The elimination of anything that could remotely resemble anything but a perfect track is not part of this stream. This project is more about spontaneity. You'll find perfectly human imperfections and, spare (lean and mean)demo productions throughout. On occasion, though all tracks were recorded ultra-simply on an iPhone's voice memo app, we would pull a track into GarageBand to add a track or sound effects (as in several of the originals, herein)...but all in all these are low-fat productions that reflect our most basic love for music and storytelling. Nothing more than that. Should a track tickle your ear, we'd be most grateful to here about it. Thanks for the opportunity to share with you. Follows, comments and shares are welcome.
