What Makes A Rich Man?

      I believe it's someone who can look himself in the mirror and sleeps well at night because he's honest and keeps his promises.

I wrote this song in the late 1970's. This performance was in 1979, 40 years ago, so, the quality is not so great.

Someone on facebook gave me a link to a 2 hour show I performed in. She'd watched it and contacted me to tell me how she was struck by this song. I didn't even know they'd filmed the show.  I cut the song from the two hours.

I hope you enjoy it.

My 22 year-old self would absolutely have gone to see you perform! I'm hearing a little bit of Emerson, Lake and Palmer influence in there.

And you haven't changed a bit!  

"My own integrity is all I ask of me,"

I think those who manage to have successful, long-term quits say the same thing. 

What a treat and how cool that she gave you the ink!
