Song for Lincoln's Birthday
Here's a song by one of old-time Americana music's most obscure writers. From his photos, I can tell he's the hipster type, what with the beard and the untamed hair.
His name is Abraham Lincoln, and from the words, it sounds like he's got a bad case of the "you can't go home again" blues. Abe honestly isn't much for the music side, so I had to come up with the tune. I didn't actually meet him. Lincoln wrote "My Childhood Home I See Again" circa 1847, but these days folks do all kinds of long-distance collaborations over the Internet. my performance of My Childhood Home I See Again I flat-picked my battered Seagull Folk for the guitar and added my Jack Casady hollow-body electric bass and a mass of stacked MIDI for the coda.
