Bill Staines, RIP

One of my favorite singer-songwriters, I saw Bill in concert many times and enjoyed him every time.

Probably his most famous tune

Goddammit, he was a treasure. I loved “River” long before I knew who he was.

I really like his song called “All of Me” (not the old standard, a different song) but I can’t find a link.

He was supposed to play a concert here in October. I had other plans that night, and now I wonder if he made it or not. Sigh.

The last time I saw him was at a small house concert. He was gracious and charming, despite the fact that the opening act played one of his songs!
