    LYRICS:
    Can you remember the way it used to be?
    Rest stops and break down lanes and rain,
    Were all we would need
    To call it a day
    We didn't much to say
    To explain it away
    They're opening doors for me all over town
    But it's just too bad that I won't be around
    Now plain Jane send me flowers or a post card
    I won't turn you down again
    You say it ain't warm enough
    But man I'm just burning up
    I'm going down with the dust
    Is it too much to ask, of you?
    And am I moving too fast?
    Did I come back too soon?
    Is it too much to ask, of you?
    Now sometimes just being alive is enough
    The money don't matter to me
    Just send me your love
    I'm leaving as the crow flies
    I'm coming
    We don't even need to talk
    About anything
    We can just let it ring
    There's so much I could bring
    Is it too much to ask, of you?
    Am I moving too fast?
    Did I come back too soon?
    Is it too much to ask, of you?

    So beautiful. Also, really cool to see musicians playing Neal's instruments, melding his essence with their talents. I'd recognize that white Tele with the orange guard anywhere!

      Indeed, it's the B-bender Tele that Neal said he loved. I saw him play it with CRB.

    Soooo good to see/listen to this! I've played this Song with Neal in Munich in 2019 4 weeks before we lost him. Good to see his Buddys and his equipment. Let me know when you tour Germany, maybe we can let Neals soul together. Love and Peace from Germany ☮🦉❤

    This is absolutely wonderful. As a tenor and Bari sax player myself, I really appreciate the wonderful sound of the horns and how they are mic’d up. This song has the sound of an old soul record. So laid-back and groovy. You all did an amazing job!

    For those in the know….I have an oar, for those tears……Finished using it, myself….Happy to share…Pass it around…..I’m also going to flip through my collection of photographs, Neil left for me:
    Tomorrow’s Sky.
    Photographs, by Neil Casal.
    I swear, he smiled at me, at 5:13am, in New Orleans, at Tipps…I smiled back…I’m in the crowd! What was I gonna do??!!
    I’m always going to give, to the Neil Casal Music Foundation.
    There’s a reward. No need to claim it though……

      I do not. His book, Tomorrow’s Sky, does. Full of beautiful, haunting, quiet, loud, Cali and back, and back to Cali imagery.
      And, Neil was able to catch the good stuff? And, put it in a jar,…the good stuff…and give a taste to his friends, if they asked….
      I think so at least…
      Never met him…But, I’m a friend…

      @@eddiemoore1533 I knew him when I was a kid. He was my neighbor's very good friend in Jersey. When I was about seventh grade I met him and I could say he was a super gentleman. He just joined Blackfoot. He drove me to my dance and I remember before I got there he drove me around and told me about the Rolling Stones.
      2012 and was playing with Chris Robinson I saw him in Delaware. A friend of a friend got me backstage and I didn't expect him to remember me I'm a 46-year-old man now.
      But like a gentleman he did He was so kind to me. Just all around great dude

      Just wow. I saw the Crowes, at Jazzfest (wanna say 2012), then: the Brotherhood, at 3am, at Tipitinas..They were on time, tight, and just amazing. Then saw them at Headliner’s Louisville….It saddens me to the core..But the music?..It’s why I even know about Curation Records..The amazing Interlude for the Dead..It’s a rabbit hole, I didn’t know I had to go down…Thanks a ton for sharing. Means a lot. He’s smiling sometimes/some where’s, about now…..
