You know you’re onto something good if you’re feeling both emotions at the same time, and here I am doing just that because I’ve reopened the door to my first love.

I was in the car the other day trying to decide what song to share with you, and I thought of one of my favorites, the John Prine classic, “Angel from Montgomery.”

I’m transferring cassettes of songs I wrote in the ’90s to my laptop, and ran across a tape labelled “Anthology of Lameness.”
