"Amen" is a traditional gospel song that was popularized by The Impressions with their 1964 version. It was recorded earlier, in June 1948, and released in January 1949 by the Wings Over Jordan Choir.

“What makes a song is the singer, while what makes a singer is their dedication to music and their inner feelings.”   Dimash Qudaibergen

I have enjoyed music for as long as I can remember and cannot remember a day of not either singing or listening to music. I am self-taught when it comes to playing guitar but what I most enjoy is singing which I have been doing since around age 18. Now retired singing and playing the guitar is now just a hobby and something I do to help pass the time. Have always  loved the sound of a Martin guitar. Currently been playing a Road Series DR S2 for about 6 years. Thanks for listening. I also enjoy discovering the sounds of other talented musicians and singers here on SoundCloud.

mixes are time capsules of sound. each capturing a moment in time that will not be repeated the same way. each mix is meant to transport the listener in their own time machine to their own destination. these are soundtracks for daily living..."music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything"

Throughlines is a surrender to the associations we hear, not the derivations we trace. A feeling not a knowing 〰️

Tune in live Friday mornings from 8-9am EST on Valley Free Radio, or listen back here
