I'm taking a “deep dive,” as the trendy hipsters call it these days, into studying folk and folk-rock music.  Shame on me that it took so long to really dedicate the time and effort to really learn where this American art form came from and by whom.  But, hey, I'm a slow learner and a late bloomer and all those other things.  Anyway, that's what I've been up to in the last week or two.  I find these really great books (see the photo - the sequel is still on my bookshelf) to help me learn a thing or two.  I expect this new education will soon seep into my songs, so keep an ear peeled for the peal of music…. Until then, stay happy, healthy, and hopeful.  Pete
