Practicing for LAKEFIELD, I was playing ‘My Boy’, thinking about my own Dad, pictured here with my son and I.
I know he must have heard this song. My dad was a great guy and Zeke is my wonderful son. I think ‘My Boy’ is my favorite recording of all the ones I have done. I love Ben Keith and Spooner Oldham’s playing, as well as all the others on it. They are soulful musicians. I have really been so lucky!
Looks like it will be raining tonight in Lakefield, as we do the benefit that pays for the refurbishment of the Canadian Heritage Farm house. It was built in 1900 along the lake shore, and we will be bringing it back so all the fortunate kids who come to Lakefield College from around the world can appreciate the wonderful Canadian feeling.
