Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Waitin'
I wrote this song around 1967 when I was a teenager. My mother and I were heavy into country and sang
together often. Attached is a link to the song I recorded in 1967. It is a bit slower than it should be as the
tape stretched a bit. I hope to re-record it soon. For what it is worth, here is the songs link.
