      "Crowfoot stood and watched as the white man spread many one dollar bills on the ground.
      “This is what the white man trades with; this is his buffalo robe. Just as you trade skins, we trade with these pieces of paper.”
      When the white chief had laid all his money on the ground and shown how much he would give if the Indians would sign a treaty, Crowfoot took a handful of clay, made a ball out of it and put it on the fire.
      It did not crack.
      Then he said to the white man, Now put your money on the fire and see if it will last as long as the clay.
      The white man said, No….my money will burn because it is made of paper.
      With an amused gleam in his eyes the old chief said, Oh, your money is not as good as our land, is it?
      The wind will blow it away; the fire will burn it; water will rot it. But nothing will destroy our land.
      You don’t make a very good trade.
      Then with a smile, Crowfoot picked up a handful of sand from the river bank, handed it to the white man and said, You count the grains of sand in that while I count the money you give for the land.
      The white man said, I would not live long enough to count this, but you can count the money in a few minutes.
      Very well, said the wise Crowfoot, our land is more valuable than your money. It will last forever.
      It will not perish as long as the sun shines and the water flows, and through all the years it will give life to men and animals, and therefore we cannot sell the land.
      It was put there by the Great Spirit and we cannot sell it because it does not really belong to us.
      You can count your money and burn it with a nod of a buffalo’s head, but only the Great Spirit can count the grains of sand and the blades of grass on these plains.
      As a present we will give you anything you can take with you, but we cannot give you the land.”

    Spotify decided that I should listen to Car Wheels on a Gravel Road. It instantly stuck in my head for days. I’ve been listening to a lot of Lucinda lately, and I keep coming back to this performance. Why does it work so well? Fantastic players - yes. The inspiration Lucinda leads with her lyrics and melodies, of course. But this is a BAND. A band that plays together and respects each other. Drums and bass lay the foundation. Different instruments/players get the space they need to speak out, then they fit right back into the overall sound. Everything contributing to just the right feel and emotion.
    Then there are those giant, liquid grey eyes. They draw me in and I want to get closer. But, just like her poetry, they also scare me more than a little. What would they see if they focused on me?

    I AM a "professional" listener of music. I've staggering credentials but none of them on paper... But I digress.
    Why am I only hearing about this amazing voice only now? I take responsibility for my not stumbling upon her sooner but still....
    And there's this little fact also.... Maybe consider it a "credential".
    I've heard the biggest bands inside of the biggest stadiums. I've heard them in arenas and coliseums, bowls, ampatheaters, and opera houses. I do this all across the country.... I pay heed and I am grateful to be experiencing this magic.. That being said...
    When the festivals end and the tours wrap up.... I retreat to the dingy bars of Northeast Pa.. Some less dingy but I like em anyway because they have music. Open mics, local bands, maybe just a guy and a guitar. In these places I see diamonds. Diamonds that could ignite the electricity of 80,000 people if only given the chance....
    I tip my hat to the songs and voices that I shall never hear. To the missed magic. I'm grateful in knowing that another's ears hear. Songs lost in the wind.

      "Crowfoot stood and watched as the white man spread many one dollar bills on the ground.
      “This is what the white man trades with; this is his buffalo robe. Just as you trade skins, we trade with these pieces of paper.”
      When the white chief had laid all his money on the ground and shown how much he would give if the Indians would sign a treaty, Crowfoot took a handful of clay, made a ball out of it and put it on the fire.
      It did not crack.
      Then he said to the white man, Now put your money on the fire and see if it will last as long as the clay.
      The white man said, No….my money will burn because it is made of paper.
      With an amused gleam in his eyes the old chief said, Oh, your money is not as good as our land, is it?
      The wind will blow it away; the fire will burn it; water will rot it. But nothing will destroy our land.
      You don’t make a very good trade.
      Then with a smile, Crowfoot picked up a handful of sand from the river bank, handed it to the white man and said, You count the grains of sand in that while I count the money you give for the land.
      The white man said, I would not live long enough to count this, but you can count the money in a few minutes.
      Very well, said the wise Crowfoot, our land is more valuable than your money. It will last forever.
      It will not perish as long as the sun shines and the water flows, and through all the years it will give life to men and animals, and therefore we cannot sell the land.
      It was put there by the Great Spirit and we cannot sell it because it does not really belong to us.
      You can count your money and burn it with a nod of a buffalo’s head, but only the Great Spirit can count the grains of sand and the blades of grass on these plains.
      As a present we will give you anything you can take with you, but we cannot give you the land.”

      robert donaldson I witnessed this version of the band three times. The first time was the last night of the first leg of the Gravel Road tour, up in Fayetteville Arkansas. It was one of the fiercest live performances I’ll ever hear. A few months later they were playing in Houston (where I lived back then.) I got there early and started talking with Fran Breen and I let him know how great the band had been that night in Fayetteville. He said, “oh yeah! And immediately after the show we all quit and swore we’d never play with her again!” “So why are you here tonight?” She begged Richard to get us to do the next leg with her as well. We all liked Hombre so we all decided to stick it out but she had to behave.” That was a couple of days before this ACL taping.
      A couple of months later they were back in Houston at the Houston International Festival and it was sort of The band was tight and I’ll leave it right there.
      So fast forward a few years later in another city I ran into another of the guys from the band and we talked and he laughed and just said “yeah... that about sums it up.”
      But man was that one hell of a band and it introduced me to Kenny and Jim’s own music and for the memory and the music I’ll always be grateful.
