Hi Gang,
I have to share an interesting personal experience. I thought I would put together a lesson an a song that I heard in 1975 but did not make a big impression on me, Poetry Man by Phoebe Snow, After a bit of research that happens for every song I head into, I was impressed by her artistry and abilities. Anybody familiar with her tragic story will be able to relate but I was caught off guard with what I heard in this video. It absolutely brought me to tears. Have a seat and watch, if you are prepared to be emotionally drained.

P.S. I even had to reread my intro to Eva Cassidy's version of this song where I labeled it as second to none. I even think I might have to recall the jury...
