I loved California paradise living almost killed me. I had to give it 5 stars on soundclick. Thanks again for posting them.

thanks guys! The california song kind of sums up my 15 years of living there. It is a trip that a place can be so beautiful, and yet be the most stressfull place on earth (man made). Walter

Cool stuff Walter. You always get a great sound.

Congrats on your recent NBC coverage. I saw a clip of it posted online. You looked and sounded good. 52? You don't look it.

On the two tunes in this thread, both sounded good but I thought the Santa tune was a little off in the guitar tuning. No big deal. Just mentioning it because it's the first time I've heard one of your tunes that was off in intonation at all.

BTW I agree about California. Lived there 23 yrs.

Hi XLR: Thanks! I try to keep in shape and eat good because I will need to make money playing money when I get older. My retirement will be not very good and I figure if I stay in good shape I will outlive most of my peers that are well known for playing and sadly bad lifestyles. Then I will get to play till I die and have my bed still in my own house . Otherwise I will be an old man with a will work for food sign on the highway off ramp.

I think I am out of tune alot(so I am told). My ear tells the tuner it is off key . Walter

Are you talking about live playing maybe? I've heard a lot of your recordings and you've always been really well in tune - guitar, harp, vocals.
