It’s fascinating to hear a song you know very well in a brand new context. Not quite a new song, but a definite new experience. Darrell takes this beautiful song and makes totally it his own. It helps that he has a great band backing him with many bluegrass flavors. When Joni sings her song it feels like poetry. When Darrel sings his version it feels like life itself. “Now the warriors of winter they gave a cold triumphant shout. And all that stays is dying, all that lives is getting out. See the geese in chevron flight flapping and a-racing on before the snow. They've got the urge for going, and they've got the wings so they can go.” Shoutout for a beautiful version of Guy Clark’s That Old Time Feelin', which “rocks and spits and cries like and old lover rememberin' the girl with the clear blue eyes.” Darrell Scott
