Last evening. Why is it almost spiritual to hear his music, his gift? When he plays Wisteria, I am touched somewhere so deep, I am usually overcome. A subject of some discourse here has been the new song, so, knowing that, I paid particular attention. The name of the song is "Your Guitar", written in memory of the late Steve Bruton. He was unaware to whom it belonged, and was "blown away" when he learned of it's past. He also performed a song for the first time that will be on his new....disc. Very lovely tune, not in my opinion as lovely as the aforementioned. May I ask you fellow cultists who are more eloquent, more knowledgeable than myself.....How can Richard perform with such passion, such emotion, when he has gone on record as saying he doesn't like folk music? Does he consider his own a different genre, or is he truly not passionate about his own music?

I'm not even sure what that is -- unless I'm ordering fancy coffee. ....Carol On Sat, Mar 12, 2011 at 4:56 PM, wrote: > I was fortunate enough to see/hear Richard and Mark in St Paul, Mn.
