Twenty-five years ago today, I penned the original composition titled "Wind in the Woods". A few years after writing the song, I recorded it and featured Katie Moody singing the high tenor line. A few years after that, the "Food Stamp Ramblers", - a band I was in which featured Donnie Perkins on fiddle, Phyllis Ezero (Donnie's sister) on keyboards, guitar and 2nd fiddle; Joe Ezero (Phyllis' husband) on standup bass; and me on banjo and guitar, - performed this beautiful song using twin fiddles in the keys of E Flat and C Minor. It was done to perfection and I loved the arrangement.
Some day, I hope to introduce this piece of music to my wonderful friends Eric and Leigh, the Gibson Brothers and have them sprinkle their magic on it and bring it to the world in a manner befitting the composition. I am truly proud of this song, both lyrics and music and hope for the eventual success I feel it deserves.
I have performed this song for hundreds of people and I've yet to hear a discouraging word. Everyone loves it.
Happy Birthday "Wind in the Woods".
