Ed, who has appeared on more Folk-Legacy recordings than any other artist, has selected for this recording a group of songs illuminating the stages of life from birth, through youth and maturity, into old age and, quite naturally, death. Some of these songs are traditional, others have been recently composed, all are performed with Ed's fine guitar and thoughtful style. As Gordon Bok once put it: "Ed sings a song from the inside out," making it's meaning clear.
