RKBS 8 wrap-up: "Still Holding You"

Well, I finally found and fixed up one last leftover from the RKBS sessions that commenced, lo, over a year ago.  There was a persistent hole in the solo area that it turns out was just the size of a baritone guitar and my nifty new Hummingbird tremolo pedal.  I also hadn't had much chance to play my fake gospel piano bits in a while, and the pedal steel had been totally gathering dust, so it was fun song to put together, especially so because it moves on a stately pace well suited to my limited musical fleetness.

The song dates to the tail end of our temporary East Douglas, MA relocation about 10 years back, and is a typical rumination on the swirl of separation and togetherness that life'll deal you. Listening to it now, I can detect a Steve Earle feel to it but, irregahdless, it's been a fave for a while.
