HI Vic,
So, what's not to like? Nothing. A real nice write and super delivery. Your band did good for you. Interesting take on the subject. Love how you delivered it to us.
Happy New Year...

Re the subject: The memories are real ones from my childhood.
I hoped the listener would empathise.

This is really nice Vic. Did y'all have a civil war over there, too?  Anyway, I really like your Americans songs. This is great. Happy New Year.

Thanks David. Yes, we had one 200 years before you. Maybe we started some kind of weird fashion. It is said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Vic

That is a beautiful melody to go with the tender and very relatable lyric.
The vocals and the sessions guys are comforting (a la Norman Blake).
Wonderful imagery and well produced by all measures.
it would make a great video.
Happy New Year!

Thank you J&B.
I would love to make a video. I have a few old family film clips from the '60's that I could use.
The amount of work is daunting though. Maybe one day.

I enjoyed the is song very much.
Your delivery is just right and uncluttered backing works well.
I love the line about ghosts being the guardian of memories.
Cheers,
Mike

Loved the lyric Vic. Excellent story telling. Excellent vocal and backtrack. Violin was a nice add on the left side. Well done.

Thanks Scott.
Re the fiddle: It was like one of those rare moments in an intimate gig where someone asks to join in from the audience and adds that little extra.
