I recorded a cover of Black Peter tonight. I used to play this a lot back in college, and a good friend from those days asked me if I would record it for her. So the video is lots of pictures from school days.
I included some pictures of our friend Suzanne, who died this past winter. (You may remember she was the Y&R exec who was killed in that horrible elevator accident.) Anyway, when I posted the video on YouTube and Fandalism, her picture is the one that came up as the thumbnail picture.
The first picture is ma back then and the last picture is me now.
The song is just me and the guitar with a little second vocal right at the end, and that's it.
I hope you like it.
Thanks for listening.

(17,045 posts)I actually wrote a new song last night. I haven't written anything new since my son was born (almost 8 years ago!)
I hope to record it over the weekend.

It's a fun song to play. I play it the simplest way possible.
