Love and Desire

Walking the Woods with Larry Lee
by Bambi Grinder
Larry's reserved, respectful, and relaxed nature at once set me at ease, as he enfolded us welcomingly into his space and the story of how he came to find it.

The Premiere of David Starr’s
“These Days”
From David’s Touchstones Project
January 14, 2021
“For as long as I can remember, this Jackson Browne song has been part of my soundtrack. The plaintive lyrics, simple melody, and beautiful chord structure make it a great song to adopt and interpret. And the fact that the songwriter was only 16 when he wrote it makes it all the more poignant.” ~David Starr
