18) OUTRO
Here is our last grouping of some of the original songs of Bill Morrissey.
I talk about my feelings on Bill’s music a bit during the outro on this
show so I won’t bore you here, just know that if you’re unfamiliar with
this stuff, it is among the finest of any songwriter of any genre
anywhere. Buy his albums, there is not a dud in the batch. Find his book Edson,
a beautiful novel about finding your way as you grow older from the
perspective of an aging New England singer-songwriter. If you like the
imagery painted during his song ‘Small Town on the River’
then you’ll love a novel-length version with plot and characters, just a
beautiful story. He was purportedly working on a second. Below you’ll
find links to his two main websites and I’ll spare you the many links to
some very good articles on his life and death, you can find a host of
great links already up on his site. We’ll get to volume 4 in good time,
it will feature some of the many great covers Bill has done in various
settings over his career. Next time will be a mix show, thanks for
listening!
