Patience Blues

without time

You trembled by the gate,
Raw from a sorrowful night,
When there was no place to be;
Your body unfitting
Any given circumstance.

Tired ghosts nudged you
Across an insomniac bed.
Today you bled
On my sheet – our separation,
This Good Friday morning.

It's Transcendent

I haven't kept much of what I recorded as a studio engineer in Nashville back in the 1990s, but one set that stands out is from a day in 1996 when my friend Bill Verdier came to the studio and, with guitar accompaniment from Peter O'Hanlan, laid down two excellent fiddle tracks for a project he was working on. I got chills hearing this as it was being played, and I still get chills 26 years later.

I learned today of Bill's passing, and I just wanted to offer up these two samples of his excellent musicianship. I'm glad I got to hear him. He will be missed.
