"Long Time Ago", is on the verge of being released. Just heard the mp3 mix, with my old friend, Johnny Neel adding some grand piano to the mix!
Johnny just turned 70 on June 11th, and to have him on this track, dedicated to the Lynyrd Skynyrd and The Allman Brothers Band Family, is something that I am proud and excited to share with anyone who has been influenced in one way or another by these bands (this means you...even if you don't know it).
This is my first release since the breakup of the freds, nearly 2 years ago, so yeah...it's about time!
Thanks for hanging in there with me...
