A friend just asked if I had any “Rambling Songs.” I wrote most of this one about 1970, back when every Folk and Country singer had a song about rambling. Then I added the third verse and made a demo for a project about 2003. But when my friend asked about “Rambling Songs,” I could NOT find the audio file. I finally tracked it down on a backup of a backup. I guess it went rambling on its own.
When I wrote the third verse and sang the song for Shelia, she asked if I had something I wanted to tell her. No, it’s just a song. . . .
Hope you enjoy “Long and Open Highway.”
