Reminds me of lying on the rug next to the wood stove with my future hubby.

4. Thanks for sharing this

I have been a fan of his since he first got recognition by being played on the radio in NH... quite some time ago. Saw him live many times back then. The last time I saw him live was at least a dozen years ago when I went to visit family back there for the holidays. He still sounds great but much mellower.

5. He changed my life

He doesn't remember me, maybe. We sat backstage at a show in Park City, Utah. I was a young struggling musician, and he said, "you do it because you love it, every thing else that happens is just cool." He was quoting Ray Charles. J. Edwards is an amazing human being. I know, I was there...

6. I knew a couple three people that have had some dealings with Jonathan Edwards ..

.... awhile back had good things to say about him. The memories that this song
brings back to me are thick and sweet.
