I had the opportunity to see Oregon at a small club in Seattle about 15 years ago. Very nice evening.

Must of the gang here probably hasn't herd this, When I was very young it really hit me. I could feel the sorrow and the loneliness and the cowboys dedcation tto his lonesome life. Since Individualism and Self-Reliance sit at the core of transcendentalism, Tip is still spot on.

And I truly love this tune and Ray price (here he covers someone else's song but's one of his best. Also love "Ain't it funny how time slips away."
