This blog celebrates the music of Bruce Springsteen, Prince, Daryl Hall & John Oates, and the rest of my musical heroes. The title “The Great Song Traveler: Chasing Songs From Town To Town” pays tribute to another one of my musical heroes, Jackson Browne. The phrase “The Great Song Traveler” comes from Jackson’s song “Looking Into You,” while “Chasing Songs From Town To Town” is a line from his song “I Thought I Was A Child.” Having spent much of my life “chasing songs from town to town” seeing my favorite artists (the “great song travelers”) in concert, the blog title is simultaneously autobiographical and a tribute to Jackson, who “opened my eyes to the view.” If you listen to those two songs, you’ll understand.
