Trivia, story behind the song, etc.

Sweet Ramble, (track 15) is a sort of talkin blues that I wrote about a trip to Fairbanks to open up for Ramblin Jack Elliott, Guy Clark, and Verlon Thompson. And about a black and white photo he gave me before the show, a picture of Mississippi John Hurt with a great big grin on his face. I took the photo up on stage with me, and the rest of the story is in the song. . I've known Jack for 25 years and I learned allot of pickin from him. He taught me how Woodie Guthrie used to pick with two fingers when he played 1913 massacre. He stays with me off and on when he gets up this way." Jack still has my capo. I got his capo, one of Guy Clarks hand made thumb-flat picks with a rivet that he manufactures when hes bored in hotel rooms, Cheryl Wheelers Guitar(a Jim Olson named osgood), and Patty Larkin used guitar strings, about 6 dozzon of em she sent me for xmas a few years ago. And thats all i need to get me through the winter.
