FATHER'S
DAY (Simplicity Himself)
This
record came about (look at that, I¡¯m still calling them
¡°records¡±) when my friend Tom Newbill offered to pay for
a rather expensive guitar renovation if I promised to record
a collection of (at
least some of) my spiritual material - Tom realizing that,
as the old song says, ¡°What the world needs now is¡sweet¡¡±- which
is what I, with the help of my son (and,
of course, Father) did. And now that it¡¯s done I
realize that this is essentially the record I would have
made under any circumstances (for, indeed, ¡°What the world
needs now is¡¡±) The cover photo was taken by Linda
Ballew (who also did the graphics along with Mike Rocco) and
the rather extensive layout was accomplished with the very
generous (and timely) financial assistance of my friend Tim
Warnisher who also talked me into (along with much prodding
from Linda) typing the lyrics (a daunting task). Once it was
done, however, I was glad I had listened to them so that
you, in order to catch it all, wouldn¡¯t have to be
constantly listening to me.
