Greyhound

When I was in high school and college I spent a lot of time on buses. Back and forth between Spokane and Seattle. Long bus rides to Canada to go to camp. Football road trips. Ski buses. There is/was something about those experiences that is like no other. I feel this song somehow draws on the essence of those experiences.

I wrote this song in the mid-70's. I feel in some important ways this song was a step forward for me as a songwriter. It was an important addition to McCoy's and my album, Between Friends.  

With Mike McCoy

Mike McCoy and I came to the University of Washington on football scholarships. We became friends and started singing together our freshman year. In this room you'll find songs and stories illuminating some sixty years of sharing the stages of our lives including 30 Dear Partner Letter videos filled with music and memories about our enduring friendship and musical partnership.
