I was hanging out with a local musician named Joey Murcia and he handed me a copy of this tune. He said it had a bad ass teenager steel player on it who is doing pretty good these days. They called the kids dad to book the session.

Turns out it is on youtube.

The kid probably has a future.

It was refreshing to hear the lush 'seventies arrangement.

hey Bob,

Here's one with Paul that was recorded I believe in 76 or a bit later.. but not much later

The artist was a local Philly writer/performer one side was recorded in Philly the other side at Pete's Place.
The difference in production values was stunning.
I was on the Philly session and was but a freshman steel player and had no business in the studio.

I ran into Joey again and he said the kid playing steel nailed his part in the first take and blew everybody in the session away even with all those tricky chords.

Bo: For whatever reason, the YT video says "1964" in the title.

I don't know if that's part of the song title, or if it's supposed to be an indicator of the year that it was performed.

I think Paul's first session was It's So Nice To Be With You, by Gallery.
