A Carter Brothers song inspired by the story of Ted Williams, the homeless man with the amazing voice who was discovered and given a second chance by a stranger and the global online community that was moved by his story. Tim Carter is a Grammy Award winning musician and producer, and a monster banjo player who wrote this in a matter of hours after hearing of Williams' story. The video was created by Michael Tew, a fan club volunteer.
Uh oh, after listening to this song, think it is a different Ted Williams, never mind...sorry :(
