Thanks for this – nice one. Seems like everyone and his brother covered this tune, but I’d never heard the original. Some pretty fancy guitar runs in there! Is that Steve, or someone backing him?

Michal,
I don’t know if that is all him as Bruce Langhorne, Dick Rosmini, Bill Lee, and Russ Savakus are also playing on the album.
Darcy Farrow was co-authored by Gillette and Tom Campbell. It was his first big success as a song writer.

That’s some pretty high class talent!

Steve and Cindy played at a local festival down the road from us back in 2008:

John,
In the blog once known as Coffee, I played Steve and Cindy more than a few times. I like them each separately, but I like them better together.
Great pictures!

They’ll be back at the Fox Valley Festival again this year:
Time for a road trip?

John,
If it weren’t for the pets, I’d be traveling far more often. I am going to Colorado in June and am trying a new pet sitter. I’m hoping it will work out so I can travel more.
