wow; my memories go back 39 years to many many time sitting on the floor at youthquake

God bless you man, I remember watching you in a get together at the house of acts playing 'My song' to B and F for the 1st time. At least it seemed like you were showing them for the 1st time. I remember thinking what an awesome chord progression particularly on the words 'bartered' and 'hung' Anyway keep up the good work. I'm Julie Butler's older brother Jim.

How nice to hear from you after all these years. Glad you enjoyed the new song. Yes, I remember well those early days of our youth, and have many wonderful memories of friends and times gone by. As you can see, I still write songs, though my voice is not what it once was, but then nothing is as it once was. Thanks for commenting, and if you are ever on Facebook, please go to my profile page. I have a bunch of pictures there from those early days.
