"If not Arizona, then a land not too far away. Where all parents are strong and wise and capable. And all children are happy and beloved. I don''t know. Maybe it was Utah."`H.I. McDonnough (Raising Arizona)
Here I am, a "Native Los Angeleno" musician, relocating into a beautiful little community "somewhere between a sundance and a city," in beautiful scenic Utah thinking I could make a living playing piano at a local restaurant in town...or so the musical story goes!
Two nights in a row I wake up at 4 AM hearing this song in my head. I had no choice but to get it out of my head and on to a CD. So I asked my old friend Randy Ray Mitchell (guitarist/producer of Billy Bob Thornton''s ''Hobo'' CD) to play all guitars, dobro and mandolin. I sang and played the rest of the instruments (including of course "The Piano"). So now... I can go back to sleep ;-) Until sometime in the future when we record the whole album.
May I again say that THIS IS JUST A CD SINGLE and not an entire album. :-)
About the composer Richard Souther:
I''ve been writing music all my life but recording solo projects since 1985. I''ve been fortunate enough to have had some of my work used by Daimler Mercedes-Benz in a European commercial, CBS 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano for a segment on Buddhist monks, PBS''s Spanish version of "Sesame Street" continues to this day to use a song from my first album. I have song in the HBO film "Iron Jawed Angels" which played at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival. Some music in the NBC Dateline, Secrets behind ''The Da Vinci Code'' segment. The project I''m most proud of is a independent documentary film I scored on the life of Blade Runner/Tron artist, Syd Mead.
But... since this song is a Country Song It might help to know that I''ve played on many country albums. Probably the best known was one called "God Loves Country Music" featuring Al Perkins, David Mansfield, George Highfill, ,Jerry Scheff, Ron Tutt, Cindy Baxter, Terry Talbot and Richie Furay...and no! your thinking of JD Souther! ;-)
