Choice Cuts

Live at festivals in France, the Netherlands, and Swans Island, Maine.

I created this album a few years ago as a promotional sampler, but liked the result enough to add more live recorded cuts and offer it for sale. (Re-released with new tracks in 2008!)

My greatest joy as a performer is to be surrounded by the magic of a crowd joining in full voice harmony on a chorus. I recently realized that over the last fifteen years I've had the privilege of having performances recorded in a number of concerts that together represent some of the highlights of my career.

I can't begin to tell you what a wonderful time we had... My children adore the tape (Fair Stood the Wind); my son, who is six, has almost all the words memorized.
