A couple of months ago I wrote a song called 'Goodbye Old
Friend.' It came to me after hearing about the deaths of a few friends,
including my oldest and only college friend, Michael Kalmonson. It's dedicated
to all my friends who have relocated to the next world.
In the studio in
Barnardsville, NC yesterday, we finished the song. It'll appear on my
forthcoming album, "Shoot for the Moon" which is being produced as a
joint-venture fund-raiser with Mac
Angels that supports families with ALS (aka Lou Gehrig's Disease).
Contributing to this track are some brilliant
musicians: Bruce Lang (bass and various other instruments, engineer,
co-producer; Paul Babelay (drums, percussion); Molly Rose Reed (vocals). The
emotional guitar solo at the end is Fred Gortner (Paladin Realty
Partners).
The
album will be released in early 2019. There will be other real estate
industry people playing and singing on the album! Corporate sponsorships will
be available.
Plans
are for a live show in NYC in 2019!
Here is 'Goodbye Old Friend':
