John used to always introduce this song with the line:
"And now a song with drug overtones"
I do miss him, a great talent who was just being re-discovered.

Well, makes me wanna turn the radio off. Somehow this queer Buddhist has no problem with choral settings of the latin mass, but this still gives me the willys. Toe-tappin bluegrass for sure , but still......

Good toe-tapping song, I only miss Hartford's own shoes dancing in the background. I am a Jewish atheist. And I love bluegrass and old time string band music, the Christian songs no less than the rest. I could live without some of the spiritual messages, but give me that old time music! And it might as well be here on RP.

I like it and I'm not a christian. In no way am I going to become a christian after listening to this song but I like it none the less.

I didn't realise that RP had turned into a Christian station :o
Apart from that... this song still suck ;)
Out of all the myriad of influences that can and will influence an artist, why does a christian influence automatically make music less legitimate?
That's crazy...  |

Excellent! Glad to see more Hartford made it to the playlist. I had thought about uploading this but since the others I'd tried were a bust . . .
Anyway, great song and I'll keep trying for more
