Merry Christmas from David

Thanks to Jack Masters and Vanderbilt University/Special Collections and Archives, take a listen to this track to mark today, Christmas Day. This is one of the earliest recordings to come my way of David playing; the first half of the track is unknown to me and I hope someone who listens to it may recognize it and drop me a line with the title. In the second half you'll hear David play "Greensleeves" aka "What Child Is This?"https://soundcloud.com/user-253724306/17-unknowngreensleeves?si=7395fa130e8d4216929302410a39c2b6&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing


"Greensleeves" is the song that David played for Hank Tilbury and his friend shortly after arriving in Nashville during an impromptu visit in David's apartment; you'll find that story in Pluck.


Certainly the Webb telescope launch into outer space this morning is a miracle as will be the first-ever images it sends back to earth over the next ten years. Given his love for astronomy, I think David would have been thrilled.
