A very personal reminiscence: First time I ever heard that song was at Stan Rogers' home the afternoon after his funeral in June 1983. "From Fresh Water" had not yet been released, and there was a reel-to-reel recorder set up in the living room playing some of the tracks. Hit me like a ton of bricks. Stunning song and delivery. Tears flowed freely.

As to what I was doing there, there was a bit of a reception going on and I was, um, a hanger-on.
