A story still in progress
My story begins back in 1982 when I was deeply in love with a girl and she loved to hear me sing. “Peaceful Easy Feeling” was one of her favorites and mine, and she asked me to do it for her often. Several months went by and we married briefly, but were torn apart by outside influences. For 29 years I had not spoken to her or seen her-until four days ago. She contacted me and things were instantly rekindled. One of the first things she asked me to do was sing to her, and of course I sang a bit of PEF. To condense things-I will be seeing her later this week for the first time in many many years. While I do have hope for us, we both still have a long way to go together. The song means a great deal to me, and always will. She revealed to me that whenever she heard it, she would begin to weep a bit. For my part I had not sung PEF for all those years, and still the words came back instantly. Thank you Jack for a wonderful touchstone and masterpiece. -Al
