More Info:
In the last 3 months of Ben’s life I started sending iPhone recordings of me singing a song of his – the first iphone recording, “I’ve Gotta Leave You Now,” closes this album – this recording is what Ben heard – he loved it.. (what I wanted was for Ben to hear his songs coming toward him rather than only from him – for a writer, it is an important perspective: to hear songs with 1 degree of separation – like you’re hearing someone else’s songs.)Reviews:
3 days in Drik Powell’s studio & home in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana in November, 2014 while on the road, 8 songs were recorded simply – no tricks, no hiding – just me & engineer, Erick Jaskowiak – add a live version of “Country Music I’m Talking To You” from Texas gigs the week before – add the iPhone recording he’d heard and you get 10.
My wish is for you to slow down for 52 minutes, put this recording on and hear 2 friends make new friends – I believe there is pure beauty here – these songs are perfect examples of “song as literature” – 10 is an intimate gift for a fellow father and human being and songwriter whom I knew for a short, but powerful, time – Ben’s songs are timeless – I loved getting right in the middle of these songs and offering my best – these are great songs: period.
