Question and Answer

Hi Pat,

I've listened to your music since the late seventies when I was a student at CMSU, in your old haunts. It's funny, I've always been able to relate instantly to your concepts of "a tree in the middle of a field" as beauty and inspiration. (I lived in Lee's Summit for 13 years.)

My question is: " Have you ever listened to your brother Mike's song Lakeview Ballad? (off of Day In, Night Out) I think this song is so beautiful, and rivals much of your own music. I realize it is about the old house and associated times, and having a lot of family, that makes it all the more meaningful to me.

Have you ever thought of playing one of Mike's tunes on an album? (such as Lakeview Ballad)

i totally agree about mikes tunes - he has written some great ones, and in fact "lakeview ballad" is probably my favorite of his. i actually would love to record that someday - hopefully i will....
