I spent some time in 2012 and 2013 to record my friend Rick who was just learning how to play guitar. He had grown up playing drums in different bands and found the joy of writing songs. Rick is no longer with us. Greg Connor Here is…

Recorded on a handheld Tascam recorder, with (unfortunately) a little too much guitar, and not enough vocals. Sorry Rick, I'll do better next time, Greg

He sounds so like the Rick I knew in the 70’s - lovely to hear!

Rick is a friend of mine. He might be the most optimistic person that I know.

We worked together as competitors in the same industry, and have been friends for at least 20 years.

Rick retired early after experiencing a few health issues, and found an interest in playing guitar, singing, and writing songs at age 58.

He is now 61 (I think), and because of his optimism, has been asked to perform at the local medical facility and has appeared on billboards around town, as an example to help others foster that same positive attitude.

Rick recently performed at a local art show after being asked to provide background music to the patrons.

I recently caught up to Rick with my portable recorder and a free evening. These songs are the result.

I hope you enjoy them,
