Story tellers

Today I have the day off. It's Columbus Day don't you know. So I'm spending it quilling and catching up on things I've recorded on the DVR. Right now it's a James Taylor/Carol King concert. Now is a good time to watch it because my other half isn't home. He's not a fan of that style of 'hippie' music.
I love James Taylor's voice. It's just so...sweet. And Tapestry was one of the BEST albums ever!

It's a pretty good concert. Taped at The Troubadour. He told a story about almost song he played. And I thought, I love a story teller. Duh. I guess that's apparent when you see my book collection. Obviously though, it's not just authors. I just love a good story teller. Maybe that's why I enjoyed Ricky Skaggs so much. Sure, I like Bluegrass. It's fun! But I really like him in concert because he's a story teller. He likes to tell what he loves about the music and the song he's getting ready to play. How he came to write it. Who inspired him. It's good stuff man. It's his passion. Nice.
