Another "Love gone bad" song.

Down by the riverside

Very nice Richard it seems so celebratory and yet private in a way. Loved it.
It’s been a while since listening to a tune of your Richard a moment to think and contemplate thank you
Very nice and relaxing tune- I almost could see the clouds!
Dave and I enjoyed this very much! It was the song the quartet played at our daughter’s wedding as she walked down the isle!
This is beautiful, the notes hang in the air like snowflakes lit by a full moon.
