This series will include as many of my all-time
favorite (ATF) tunes as I can get my grubby little hands on (so to speak). Now, each one included in each edition will
have some connection with the other—albeit only as a figment of my imagination,
but they will not be numbered. For I
just cannot bring myself to rate some higher than others. So, this will not be a countdown, but if you
are enjoying them as much as I do, it won’t matter. Besides, with no countdown, this could go on
forever and ever! Oh, and despite the
fact that there is absolutely no way your musical tastes could be as exquisite
as mine, I welcome any suggestions you might dare to make. For I am, after all, quite magnanimous by
nature.

I’m Alright
Kenny Loggins
I'm alright
Nobody worry 'bout me
Why you got to gimme a fight
Can't you just let it be
Do what you like

I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow
The Foggy Bottom Boys
In constant sorrow
All through his days
I am a man
Of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble
All my days
I bid farewell
To old Kentucky
The place where I
Was born and raised
The place where he
Was born and raised
For six long years
I've been in trouble
No pleasure here
On earth I’ve found
For in this world
I'm bound to ramble
I have no friends
To help me now
He has no friends
To help him now
For I'm bound to ride
That northern railroad
Perhaps I'll die
Upon this train
Perhaps he'll die
Upon this train
Maybe your friends think
I'm just a stranger
My face you never
Will see no more
But there is one promise
That is given
I'll meet you on
God's golden shore
He'll meet you on
God's golden shore

A few years ago Kenny performed at a free outdoor concert here in Portland. I sat up close on the grass and listened to him, and was reminded of what a fabulous singer and musician he is.
