I made this about six years ago with my son Sam on chorus vocals. He was eight at the time. I decided to just use thumbnail sketches to tell the story. If anyone feels up to the task, they may create their own video of this song. I will send them the mp3 music track to accomplish this. Any...

Here's a litty ditty (in stereo!) I made up a month or so ago. I've enlisted the aid of a couple of friends of mine - my hands, for this number. ...And oh, I too now realize that I put "words & music by Jon Shelton" on the end title card when in fact there are NO words in this instrumental piece...

Jon Shelton, Kathy Sundquist and Steve Freiburger recorded a beautiful rendition of the folk song The Water is Wide. I thought the song made a fitting metaphor for old men and their love of 'the game' and youth's disillusionment once they realize they're the ones that pay the price for old men's...
