Oh hear the music. Search the world over for the sound that fills your soul with companionship when you are alone. Music that heals and comforts and knows you in a way no one else will ever know you. A music that calls out to you in the night. A music that fulfills your unfulfillable longing. A music that reminds you to live and to love and to dwell in your feelings. A music that keeps your spirit at peace. A music that gives you harmony. A music that laments for your soul. A music that calms the demons should you have any. A music that inspires when the well has run dry. A music that turns a barren land lush with flora and can burn the land dry and desolate as a stone canyon. A personal music. A secret music. A secret music indeed. A music much too personal to share with anyone you do not trust. A music that reminds you of time passing and the beauty of the mystery of living here in this time on this planet with the people you know and love all around you that no matter the season or the situation will always love you and the music sings to this place and to these people. A music that haunts you and give surcease from your hauntings. We are all haunted. A music that rambles and rolls and erupts and dances and moans and wails and dies and ripples and echoes and falls and exalts and deflates and billows and ignites and calls out from the very cells of your body the memories of all the strange lives once connected to the deepest memories of whatever substance we are truly made of that remembers bits and pieces of all time and through this music you can feel the past even if you don’t understand it. Find a music that is yours and love it despite what anyone else shall think. Keep it and listen to it as a sermon when you are down and let it guide you when you are awake and when you are asleep let it drift into your dreams.
Glad you liked it..Ive always liked Renbourn although I have to admit that he floats in and out of my sphere alot over the last 30 or so years...
The first song up there "Southwind"---someone please play a nice version of that at my funeral someday as Im being lowered into the ground..Im serious.... :)
This song is always coming to mind for some reason. No, I don't work in a coal mine, never did. I was in residence, though. (Nah, not the same thing, I guess.)

What a long strange trip it's been.
Some times the lights are shining on me
Other times I can barely see
Maybe it occurs to me
What a long strange trip it's been
What a long strange trip it's been.
Wow. Deja Vu.
Some times the lights are shining on me
Other times I can barely see
Maybe it occurs to me
What a long strange trip it's been

Ahhh, Man!
That remake of Marley's "3 Little Birds" is priceless!
It put a great big smile on my face.

I first heard John Renbourn 30 or so years ago. His talent blew me away back then.
He's so good --- even after all these years. I'd love to know half of what he's forgotten.
Thanks for posting that clip. It brought back some very pleasant memories.

For those of you who are a bit "refined"...IMHO, the greatest jazz guitarist I've ever heard...

I don't consider myself refined, by any means, but I dig the heck out of J.P.
