Old Man + Just Because

It has been my good fortune to have made music with some special people. Ted Brancato is one of them. In many ways he and his family like a second family to me. My friend, Gary Drager, and I wrote the song "Old Man" nearly 50 years ago. I have sung it ever since. I must say it means something different to sing it in my 70's as opposed to my 20's. 

The video ends with a rendition of "Just Because." It's one of the first songs I learned to play when I was starting out as a young kid. Still like playing it as an "Old Man."
